Statue of Traba Silverblade

Locked metal gate to Area 13 (east), stairs down to Area 16, goblin corpse near statue. The Silverblade family requested a special statue of Traba Silverblade be sculpted and placed here. Placed on the statue's pedestal are a total of 15 gold coins. These coins are offerings that will temporarily disable a magical ward that is placed at the top of the stairs to the west. When two gold coins are placed on the pedestal, the ward is inactive for ten minutes and allows movement down the stairs. Anyone moving up the stairs from Area 16 into Area 14 will not trigger the ward. Anyone removing a coin from the pedestal must save-vs-spell or take 1d8 damage from a lightning bolt that strikes from the statue. The goblin corpse is new; less than a few weeks dead. In the goblin's left hand is a single gold coin.
