In search of Modnar's Tower
Taking the torch, Kara stated, "I had been assuming that it had been unexplored, and we would thus be facing golems, undead, and vermin primarily- things that could exist without need of the seal being broken. But it did not look particularly difficult to raise the trapdoor, something one would not expect if it had been unmolested for decades. That might indicate that the checkered bandits, or orcs, or some other such beings might be within."
She looked to the sky. "The storm would have washed away any evidence here on the outside, but as we go in, perhaps tracks in the dust of ages, or the absence of such dust, might suggest if this theory is sound."

I assume Kara found nothing of interest while looking outside? If so, she and Preston will move on with the others.
