	You carefully begin to examine a simple modwir coffer for traps...

	Examining the coffer, you locate a small dark reddish-brown sphere held in a metal bracket towards the back of the lock mechanism. The spherical crystal gives off a faint humming noise, occasionally extruding a thin spiky filament. It appears that were the tumblers to be activated, the gem would be caught amongst them.

	It looks like an incredibly hard trap (about -360).

			You gesture at a scratched brass trunk.
			Now to isolate the offending mechanism and disable it...You see a flash of metal pop out of a tiny hole next to the lockplate!
