And, assuming nothing eventful happens, we follow standard watch rotation for the night, presumably waking up rested and cheerful.

I'll take the last watch, so you guys can finish getting rest. Now where is my liquor? Frank will eat his fill of the food provided and sip some from a flask that was in his gear. He apparently plans for the long haul as he has several 1 gallon containers and a bottle in addition to multiple water skins.

The night is uneventful.

In addition to your starting gear, as you did not fully consume the feast, you gain two days of rations and ale.

A mention of packing of the food is required.

Highest spot check.

As the group wakes, Chauser catches a glint of gold suspended in the air.

Frank will take as much food as wouldn't spoil before he can eat it.

Galon changes and curls into one of the beds. "I'd take a watch, but I need this time to shape my melds, sorry."

Ooooh secretspoilertime
Chauser goes and investigates.   15 for search, since taking 20 would be inadvisable at best

Terek will grab some food as well, but not any ale unless there is some way to carry it.

On closer investigation, Chauser discovers that the glint is a small golden orb, attached to a short chain, suspended in midair.

The ale is in small casks, but there are quite a few empty skins at the table.

On second thought, Terek will pass.

Much more will put him past a light load.

Chauser takes the orb, and tries to get a general idea of what it is.

Spellcraft (if it's magic): 1d20+8=25
Appraise (if it's valuable): 1d20+5=25
Knowledge:arcana (if it's a different kind of magic):1d20+6=13
Knowledge:architecture and engineering (if it's a building component): 1d20+10=25

Oh, darn, I just realized that dastanas should probably only work with normal leather armor instead of studded leather armor.  Can I retcon ditching the dastana?
EDIT: Forgot rolls :s.  Man, that's a lot of 25s

Upon waking up, feeling refreshed, he dons his scale mail. He then begins praying to Pelor.

"Oh great Shining One please grant me your assistance in aiding and protecting my new companions. I request the power to light our way, detect magical auras, and resist harm. I humbly ask for your blessing, the power to use my faith as a shield, and your aid in curing other's wounds. I vow to protect and aid those in need while challenging evil where it appears"

This prayer was said quietly while kneeling beside his bed, once completed, he moved to the table for some breakfast.

The orb itself is roughly the size of a golf ball. As you fiddle with it, your hand grazes a concealed mechanism. The top of the orb splits into two pieces rotating to the bottom. Within you can see what looks like a small ball of fire, behind some transparent material. The fire doesn’t put off any actual light.

You can tell it is magical, but without some sort of detection magic you no know more.
Its purpose eludes you for now.

For everyone else, a spot check of 10 will notice the fire.

Terek readies his maneuvers and eats breakfast.

Dalanath wakes up refreshed, and looks somewhat surprised.  "Oh my, I see it too.  What is that flame you have there?"

Ah, it appears my eternallight sphere is functioning adequately.  It is fortunate it was undamaged by the trip, as I don't know how I'd replace it.

Keeping up the proud traditions of trapfinders everywhere!
Note that by law of the dungeon since I picked it up therefore it is mine, and it really was undamaged by the trip (since it never went on it), so I'm technically not lying.

I took the liberty of rolling Dalanath’s applicable knowledge (religion) check.

1d20+8=16

The device is actually a way to tell time while underground, mimicking the rise and fall of both the sun and moon, according to your position on the globe. Many clerics use it to know when it is an appropriate time to pray for spells.

Presently the device is indicating that it is roughly noon.
