The disk is supported by 6 columns of wax, and directly beneath the disk is a small leather bag, overflowing with dirt.  Runes in white chalk mark the ground beneath and around the disk.  [sblock=Knowledge (Arcane) DC: 16 (Trained only) ]The small bag and the wax columns (which probably have wicks in their centers, making them what are colloquially known as 'unlit candles') are components for an arcane spell to temporarily summon allies from another plane.[/sblock]Tarag opens the cupboard under the stairs and finds nothing remarkable: a few brooms, mops and buckets, a closed barrel full of some liquid, and assorted tools, large and small, including a big heavy sledge hammer.  There are plenty of candles and a strangely large quantity of small leather bags and white sticks of chalk in one of the drawers.As you all chat and Tommy and Tarag poke around, you notice that the rock and the flames are growing at a much faster rate.  It's quite obvious to everyone now that the embers are getting redder and the rock is getting larger.  Tiny tongues of flame begin to dance in the fireplace.  The rock has actually formed two leg-like supports, and is now more like an arch than a simple rock.30 seconds have passed since you set up your positions, it is now 12:19:30 PM</blockquote>
