(note that Flight is turned off again since she was going through stuff...)

Epicette packs the stuff (or hands it off to someone else to share the weight)...

She kicks the glaive along as she goes to the next room and kicks it down the pit, "there's something strange about that one; I think it's cursed. Won't know until we have time to look at it proper, but I'd feel better if it stays away from the others."

Cernandlon refuses to violate Article 3, Section 1, Subsection a, of the Golarion Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, and does not fire on the disarmed tiefling who has surrendered.

He does, instead, pulling a blanket out of thin air and use it to pick up the possibly-cursed glaive, deciding it best to avoid actually touching it. "I'll stash it where it can't reach anything," he adds as he pushes the glaive into the space between worlds.
(Sleight of Hand to use Improbable Prestidigtation: 1d20+22 = 34)

Then he heads off to follow the rest of the group.

The group makes it back to the jail area after exiting the secret door. As you return, the haunting whispers seem to grow more noticeable. Everyone needs to make a will save.

No one suffers any ill effects from the whispering voices. As the group opens the doors you see a dark hallway that leads to a communal jail cell at the end, and there are other cells off to the sides of the hallway. There are doors to the north and south it looks like, and you think you can see some figures in the communal lockup at the far end of the hall.

Epicette sends Reverie ahead to glide along the edge of the hallway, scout out the room and peek the next corridor (AT18); then come back and tell me if she sees any guards moving about or other suspicious activity.
( Reverie Stealth 9+23=32; Hide in Plain Sight while moving at half-speed )

Meanwhile she stays right behind Daveed.


EDIT:
After the owl returns, a worried Epicette soothes the familiar and rubs her feathers for a moment before letting Reverie hide away in the extradimensional familiar pocket to bask in warmth and relax again.

"Something unusual unnerved her about the next room," Epicette whispers to the group. "No guards that can be seen but... just, something. Best be careful."

She also casts Detect Magic and starts scanning as she moves ahead. ( Perception 12+14+3 = 29 to look for suspicious stuff, like traps )

You begin walking slowly down the hallway and notice that two of the early cells had the bodies of dead crusaders in them. You make it half way down the hall and there seems to be no motion from the communal lockup at the end. Do you go to the communal lockup, try to head north, or try to head south?

(Agreed. Also, is it dark? Are we likely to be eaten by a grue?)

The hallway is dark, with faint illumination provided by a weak bio-luminescent mold patches on the walls and ceiling.

You approach the cell door and none of the prisoners seem to move or even notice your presence. they are clothed in tattered shirts, pants, and cloaks, with hoods covering their faces. They look thin and weak, possibly from malnourishment. Those of you who make a DC20 perception check notice a few limbs that are not covered by cloth seem infected and/or diseased. Anyone who made the Perception check may make a Heal check(trained only)
