Upon touching the obelisk, the runes light up and a pulse of magic energy is released!
Connor: “Huh... did you just activate it?”
David: “Seems like it... but we have no idea what it does...”
Touching the obelisk again, the runes in front morph into recognizable text. The only words on there are “Select a destination.” and “Skelebone Crypt”. The latter isn’t lit up at all.
Connor: “Hmm, fast travel, eh? Seems like that could be useful.”

Angela doesn't touch anything and walks around to the other side.
The arrow that was shot seems normal, except for a deep-brown substance covering it. It seems magical in nature, almost as though it were some kind of potion.
David lights up his sword, revealing that there are pressure plates and tripwires placed everywhere with no regard for proper positioning.
Connor: “What the...?”
Angela: “Seems they decided quantity was all that mattered and maximized it.”
David goes to investigate where the arrow came from, and it appears to have come out of a carving of a face with a circular hole where the mouth would be. It seems to have been put here just recently compared to it’s surroundings.
HP Banana [x2]: Restores 80% HP to one target, or 40% to two.
Lapis (Ingredient/Treasure): Used for enchanting and as a dye. It's probably worth a fair amount.
Sea Salt (Ingredient) [x2]: Salt from the sea, used to add flavor to dishes.
Green Glass Shards (Material): Pieces of broken glass. They could be re-melted and turned into something new...
Red Glass Shards (Material): Pieces of broken glass. They could be re-melted and turned into something new...
Glowstone Powder (Ingredient): A shining powder, used for lights and empowering potions. It’s price mostly comes from the difficulty in collecting crystals of it from the Nether’s ceiling.
Simple Feather (Material): A simple feather procured from a flightless bird.
Magic Crystal (Ingredient/Material): A crystal containing magical energies. With the right setup, it can also channel them.
Blue Potion Bottle (Consumable): A blue bottle, presumably containing a potion. What’s inside?
Red Potion Bottle (Consumable): A red bottle, presumably containing a potion. What’s inside?
Angela proceeds to level up. "What if we just blow everything up here?"
(You need to provide your new stats/skills for a level up.)
David: “I've got an idea. I'll burn all the tripwires in my path. That should make it safe, right?”
Connor: “Yea, but what about the pressure plates?”
Angela: “What if we just blow everything up here?”
Connor: [?!] “Won’t that cause a cave-in?!”
Sinclair: [💢] *angry sigh* “Even if that doesn’t cause a cave-in that kills us all or blocks us off, either the explosion will seriously hurt or kill the hostage or it will alert the kidnappers to our presence, and then THEY could very well decide to KILL THE HOSTAGE. And that’s assuming we aren’t just blown up in the first place!”

Angela doesn't touch anything and walks around to the other side.
Nothing happens.
The runes are unaffected on the other sides of the obelisk.
David: Maybe we can interact with this thing later. Let's move on.
David votes to continue into Skelebone Crypt.

Angela finds nothing of note.
The party enters Skelebone Crypt. It’s really dark down here...
Whilst the party advances into the crypt, they hear a click underfoot, followed by an arrow flying past.
Annabelle: “Aahhh!”
Connor: “What was that?!”
Sinclair: “A trap? Who felt the need to put traps down here?!”
David: “I wouldn’t be surprised if the monsters decided to litter this place with traps. We should be careful.”
David: But I think I know what I can do to deal with the darkness.
David ignites his sword as if he's using Flame Slash, but he doesn't swing, letting him use his sword as a torch.
David: I think that should help.

2nd bump
OT
David attempts to search for the source of the arrow. In other words, he searches for where the arrow came from.

David: Those things might be devices that fire arrows at us. Best to destroy them.
David throws his sword at one of the dispensers.

It bounces off, and lands on some pressure plates that cause more dispensers to fire. In addition, it burns a tripwire.
Connor: “I doubt you’re gonna break something made of stone by hitting it with a sword.”
David narrowly avoids the arrows he inadvertently caused to fire. But his gaze falls on his sword and the burnt tripwire.
David: I've got an idea. I'll burn all the tripwires in my path. That should make it safe, right?
