You ascend the stairs as Witic closes the lower door behind you and you hear it click as it is locked. Reachign the top you open the door to the observatory
A narrow circular iron stairway, illuminated by tiny windows about a hands span wide, leads you up to the sound of the door behind you closing. At the top of the stairs is another door. Bracing yourself you open it and look out cautiously.
Inside is a round room with a pedestal in the middle with a curved stone atop. The peak of the stone is a pale crystal the flickers with inner lights of varied hues. The only light in the dim room is from an opening in the ceiling that though only dimly lighting the room is blinding to stare at directly. The surrounding walls have intricate mechanisms inset into them. Small and neat runes cover much of the area around the mechanisms and the mechanisms themselves. As you look around the room a shadow blocks some of the light from the hole above an a form floats down.
The floating ball like creature mainly consists of a large eye and mouth with four eye stalks protruding from the top of it. As you get a better look once it is out of the bright light coming down from above a voice enters both of your minds. Welcome back little bird. I see you brought a friend. I watched some of what transpired so know you are in contact with the first candidate but much of the place you went has wards against or detecting scrying and I can not observe anything in the manor grounds themselves so do not know what you expect of me.
