I'll move back 2 spaces and pump the other 2 into stealth to say hidden.

The elemental responds with a booming yes. The word is in the language you just spoke yourself.
There is a short pause, so you have the chance to pose further questions here.
You need to move closer to get a better view for details, but otherwise you do get the general idea of what they are doing should you look at that direction, which I will assume that you are currently not doing.

"Ah, good," says Beowuuf, taken aback. "What is your function here?"

eviltb (Round 2):
Looted 12 Kika Took 2 damage from Acid
You are mostly out of range from attacking the nearest in that you have no way of knowing their movement next round, or if they noticed you last round.
Also, you either need to spend time walking around the trap you triggered last round or find a way to disable it if you continue along the wall. (Attempting to disable the trap takes 4 activity and has 2/3 chance of success.)

"Function ?" comes the response slowly.
You might deduce that probably it has no function here but then again, perhaps not.

I'll move round the trap, down to the other wall then proceed along. 3/2 search stealth, rest on movement towards the adventurers.

There is another trap by the Giaks corpse which you manage to avoid as well. When you reach the other wall, you notice by chance another well-hidden secret door. You want to ignore the secret door or try to open it?

Beowuuf regrets getting the elemental's attention - or regrets his inability to completely communicate with it. "Sylvia," he asks out of the corner of his mouth, "do you know why this elemental would be here? To keep the peace, or does it simply live in this place?"
Even quieter to Doomy. "Unless any of these people speak the Dessi language or Shianti very well, hopefully they won't know what I am saying - feel free to use my failure to communicate to your advantage. Currently, I know it can speak, and it has no idea what I mean by 'what's your function here'."
Beowuuf turns back to the elemental and asks in his native language again. "By function, I meant 'role'? Do you live here? Did the ...ancients... bring you hear with a purpose?"

Having decided further attempts at communicating with the elemental are futile, but at least it does not appear to be hostile, Doomy whispers back: "Well, I certainly can't help you with this one. I'll go see what those other folk are up to."
With that, and keeping an eye on the suspicious rogues in the room in case they try anything, Doomy approaches the mercenaries.

Might be worthwhile to have a look at that as well. Anyway, There is no trap on it, but the search is well spent anyway because you locate the mechanism to open it. Want to open the secret door?

Sylvia responds.
"I think it roams here freely. A tome in the Hall of Earth told that except for the elementals in the Halls very few of them are bound to servitude."
"The elementals are generally not hostile. This is an Earth Elemental. The least talkable of the elementals."
"It has taken some wounds. You might ask if there is something you can do to help, but expect a reward if any to be fairly ... random in nature."
You still want to ask your question to the Earth Elemental after Sylvia's answer?
