There are no additional rocks. 

Some ten minutes later, there is the somewhat more distant sound of a hill giant laughing happily and yelling "SHEEP!" while, possibly, hugging the sheep. 

Cu...ute? Cute. Yes. 

(another time, exploring an abandoned castle which might supposedly contain a divinatory spring they can use to try to find Laila's missing teacher...) 

It does contain a spring!

Perhaps... too much of one, even. In that the whole place is flooded.

An excellent time to have a cloak of the manta ray on hand. Especially if you are, in all other respects, the sort of heavy armored tank that sinks rather than swim.

Ashoc on the other hand doesn't wear armor and has more Strength than the average mid-level veteran soldier. He swims like a fish.

The wizard is soggy and unthrilled but it's her quest they're here for so she'll just have to get over it.

There is: a door. 

It's magic. 

Oh wow. 

"Hellooooo look at YOU, you are so nifty, Laila look at that lovely curlicue!!" 

That's a door. It has no curlicues. 

Laila does not have permanent arcane sight yet and has to cast the spell first like a plebeian (she's 90% over Ashoc being Like That, he has like, two spells, but occasionally she is blazingly envious), but then she agrees. "Wow, yeah, I actually have never seen a spell like that. It's almost like--" 

"Hello!!!!" says the door. 

It TALKS? 

Serra is now standing between it and her wizards, sword drawn. 

It talks! 

"Nice to meet you!" he says, around her shoulder. 

"Is it? I have never met anybody who thought so!" 

"Why's that?" 

"ApPARENTLY they feel the point of DOORS is to let people THROUGH them. I think if you wanted that you would simply not put a door and the point of doors is to NOT do that actually." 

 "Well sure, compared to an open space, but if you really wanted nobody to ever go through you would just put a wall, no?" 

She could probably go through a wall. Breaking a non-talking wall would not possibly be murder. 

"Do you know who put you here on purpose? Why do people want to be on the other side of you?" 

"Supposedly there is a magic bucket of water or something. I am at a loss to understand how this is possibly more interesting than I am." 

"Ah, that'll be the scrying pool." Which had better actually be better than a regular crystal ball, after all this effort. They have fought a truly unreasonable number of cave bats.
