"Do you suspect such an effect came from the old woman?" Zogith posed. If it wasn't sourced from the room itself the outsider could not see many other possibilities.

While Seranna was busy helping set up in the kitchen. Zogith remained at his station. He cut his gaze briefly too Yelenn before motioning to the doorway with a tentacle, "Nothing since Seranna left. Seranna claims that the elder woman, Catherine walks without steps, but I know we heard strange sounds, akin to a breeze blowing through the room earlier. More concerning, the entire room reeked of necromancy..."
Picture Perfect!
Seranna stared down at the skeleton for a time. She felt a twinge of sadness as she pieced together his fate. No doubt they were digging when they breached the floor, leaving him to fall to certain death. If he was lucky it was instant, if not...they would have laid here for who knows how long. She shuddered even thinking about it. Instead she turned her attention toward the tracks. Both of Summoner and Ediolon spot the trail of foot prints. Together they began to follow the trail, certain they were bound to run into the others at any moment.
Wall crawling was one thing, but moving around on the ceiling was an entirely different matter. On a good day it was quite a challenge, and with this ceiling being so smooth, the way forward looked perilous. Dropping down or attempting to move across the ceiling would put both parties at risk. Ultimately the Ediolon decided to use the rope. It was made for use by human hands rather than his tentacles but after carefully coiling his limbs around the fibrous object, gripping it tightly with his suction cups he moved slowly down its length until at long last they came down to the floor, breathing a sigh of relief as he brought Seranna back to her own two feet. Both parties then scanned the area in an attempt to figure out where the others may have gone.
"Well...no," Zogith responded, slightly surprised and even taken back by the boy's cheerful and welcoming tone. He was excited and outright pleasant to speak with. This was not the manner in which he was accustom to being spoken to by outsiders, but he had to admit it was a refreshing change of pace. He could certainly get used to this. "I am of Karezza's realm-" "-He's more like an octopus." Seranna chimed in. "I am not an octopus. Zogith huffed. "He's basically an octopus, Seranna teasingly whispered to they boy before she walked further into the house, "So where are the others?" "...not an octopus." Zogith muttered defiantly as he followed the duo inside.
