[He looks up, then back down at the map on the wall. Her theories are as reasonable as can be within their limited view, such that he can't say one way or another.]

The information provided by this clue is overly broad and therefore inconclusive. As more cavities yet remain, I believe filling them first might be for the best. Thusly, it would be wiser to divide for the time being and reconvene once we have given the room a cursory sweep.

[nrangel]

Got it. Then in that case, I'll go this way, and you go that way.

[ She's kind of getting into the puzzle aspect of all of this, and forgetting she planned to force him to make choices here. Then again, he is kind of anyways by saying what they should do next? It's good enough for now. ]

[poans]

[As agreed, he goes that way to comb through his half of the room.

In the end, he comes back with a couple of plastic sheets to fill in more of the map on the wall, as well as something for her side.]

I have found a key. Was there a lock of sorts on your side?

[nrangel]

[ She herself found a book that is mostly glued together to force people to open up to one page that contains an encryption code, and is currently attempting to decode the words written on the wall in front of her, when she puts it down on the nearby table to engage with a more exciting find. ]

Three. Wanna see which one is works on?

[poans]

[Nodding, he offers her the key. She knows the aforementioned locks best. He could work on decoding while she does that, but it seems she'd like to play more cooperatively, so he will follow behind her.]

[nrangel]

[ Alright loyal baby duckling, just follow along now as she just makes her way over to the first box. She may have to try all of them anyways, so why not go for ease?

It doesn't work.

Fortunately, she's not going to have to go through all three, because the second pops open, and there is--

A button at the bottom of the box? The big red kind that's just begging for a pushing. ]

Huh...

[poans]

[He peers over from her side. The button stands out, both in color and the overall oddness of it compared to the rest of the room so far.]

Will you press it?

[nrangel]

Might as well.

[ Her hand hits it, and--

BOOM! A hidden door swings out from the wall. True escape room style. ]

Oh! Nice!
