Let's have a Persuasion check.

As Zephyr finishes attuning to the spear, while she's holding it, the blades seem wet with droplets of something. The shaft itself is carved with a snake motif, a pair twining their way up to the blade where mouths gape on either side, the curving twin blades socketed between them.

Saying Zihuassal has no effect. "Hmmm... perhapsss try 'Ksszeth'? That'sss the only one that ssspooning ladle acknowledged asss sssomeone other than a subordinate. The ring can alssso masssk your mind from thossse who would probe it with magic. A handy tool... until it'sss not. There is a bit more faint muttering, and the voice goes silent, apparently wrapped up in it's own musings.

Holger will pull the ring off just in case and put it next to the boxes. He'll then try the new name and see if that works.

I wasn't attuning to the blade. I was attuning to the spear. K thanks.

As you pull the ring off, it becomes visible again. You speak the unfamiliar word, 'Ksszeth', and there is a soft *fhsss* as the seams of the box glow briefly before going dull, the sides and lid falling away, revealing a jumble of bones.
Threads of green arcane energy flare, linking bone to bone to bone, as they pull together...
Skeletal Initiative: 1D20+2 = [19]+2 = 21
Holger = 16 (this is the last of the pre-rolls I have for you)
_: 1D20+2 = [3]+2 = 5
...the contents of each box rapidly assembling into a hulking skeleton with a bony snake head as the green energy fades.
The first of which strides towards you, swinging down with two fists...
Skeletal Unarmed: 1D20+5 = [5]+5 = 10
1D20+5 = [3]+5 = 8
...one you dodge, the other slams into the ground at your feet.
((Which watch are you taking? 2nd or 4th, by my count... Randy and Maji have first, Tess has 3rd, Zephyr is taking whenever...))
Skeleton 1
Holger <------------<<
Skeleton 2

((sure
I'm not going to ask any more, I assume being completely ignored means they're keeping what they found
))
Nem will nap until her watch comes up (I think I rolled already).

((If you want to ask after them IC, go for it! The horn and staff are 'unclaimed', and Zephyr'd likely give up the sword if someone shows an interest, IIRC, her longsword holds sentimental value (in addition to being a versatile weapon). She's just not willing to leave weapons behind to fall into the hands of the next party to wander in...))

Ok, we'll try this:
"Let's see what we have, shall we?"
Unless they refuse, Nem will take the staff and horn and sword off of Holger and Zephyr and hand them off to Ulmwin for identification.

Holger will put on the ring. A small hope that it will give him some control over the skeletons as he attempts to command them and show them the ring. He'll have it become invisible afterwards, working or not..
"Stand down, Zihuassals servitor demands it!"
Action will be dodge
4th watch is fine for me.
Yeah Holger will be totally fine with sharing the rest of the loot. He won't be stealing that many cursed items

((I already tried asking Ulmwin in character to identify the spear and Blade and we got into this "Wait till morning answer") So, no, if Ulmwin refused to identify the things tonight she wouldn't just hand them over to Tess. Spider....I only wanted to attune to the spear, which is what my comment IC was, please and thanks. Sorry, I'm running on 5 hours of sleep and had a 12 hour work day yesterday so I've been a bit out of the loop)

(Here).
After watching Ulmwin spectacularly fail at attempting to open the boxes, zephyr shows him the spear and blade that she found and asks if he can identify them before they lay down for the night.

Though according the the spatial distortion timeline twist. If Ulmwin was actually willing to identify the thing prior to me spending the time to attune to them...then I would probably avoid using it.
I really hate screwy timelines.
And spider, not trying to be an ass.

As you put the ring back on, it stays visible if you're dodging. It's an action to make it go invisible.))
You are all woken by Holger speaking in a loud commanding tone... Two large snake-man skeletons, very similar to the ones that flanked Zihuassal during your fight with him are squared off against your mage in the early predawn hours, soft moonlight bathing the area. The boxes lie open on the sand.

Initiative:

((Whose shift is all this happening on, by the way. I'm guessing this means we're going to have this counted as disrupted rest.))
