Tellerian Hawke
Defender of Oerth
The runes which cover the door make no sense; they look like no runes anyone has ever seen. However, when Dewydd grabs the handles, and the runes light up, Respen notices that only some of the lines light up, and those that do, form recognizable runes.
The runes are Draconic in origin, the language of wizards. Respen relays their meaning to the party:
SPEAK THE 4-LETTER NAME OF THE TASK THAT MEASURES ONE'S WORTHINESS TO PROCEED TO THE NEXT LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT.
END OF THIRD ROUND. Declared actions past this point will occur in Round 4.
EVERYONE: What do you do?

Tam, there are no traps on the door, and there is no access point that you can see to a mechanical lock; you've heard of this before. The lock is indeed mechanical, but there is no keyhole; the entire mechanism is inside the door. The only way to turn the tumble lever and cause the door to open, is with a specially-designed spell that is keyed to the door itself. The spell for this particular door seems to be keyed to the runes. Thus, the only way past this door is to answer the riddle that Respen just described.
END OF THIRD ROUND. Declared actions past this point will occur in Round 4.
