When she hears you translate what Grant says She gasps. "Without proper knowledge or handling of some of these magical items could cause a reaction that could be quite dangers to everyone within a league of this area. I would hate for many people to be injured for the mishandling of something because of misknowledge beforehand."
I'll translate that to Common, adding, "And that kind of thing is why I was suggesting we not touch this mess. But she knows more of magic than any of us, and if she thinks this is the only way to preserve the knowledge before the waters come… "
Taking a large sack from my pack, along with parchment and writing tools, I set them to the side for Be. Switching to Elvish I'll say, "If you are to do this, prioritize your research. Anything that you determine can be safely removed, set it to the side so it can be studied back at the stronghold at leisure. For anything else, do what you can and take notes. Some of the other mages will likely come down here to help when we give our report. Do you wish for some of your friends to remain here, keep an eye out for trouble?"

I will watch and listen, before deciding that we may just need to allow things to play out as it will. Still, there is some worry, especially since none of us knows what what happened to the last occupant which had become a decorative skeleton. Looking to it I say, waking towards it, "Well might as well get this bag of bones out of the room, unless she wants the company."

She will tell you that if you wish to remove the skeleton that is fine with her. She looks to Jason and to Qwantithalica and says, "I plan to find the lesser magical itwm first and move them safely. We can start with some of these potions. I will be able to probably tell you what they are in a couple days or so when you come back if you come back. If one of the elf boys wants to stay here as a protector I have no issues with that. Plus it will give me someone to talk to as I work." She smiles brightly at you.
I look around for some manner of cloth or canvas we can use as a shroud. "Let us at least set this one aside. Be thinks it is George, if we can, we should ask him how he wishes to be laid to rest."
"For now, I think we should move on, and return as soon as is feasible, preferably with a few extra skilled hands to speed Be's work along."
Turning back to the elves, I say, "Did any of you wish to remain? If you do so, don't get distracted or invite any trouble, just keep this room safe."
If I can find a makeshift shroud of some kind, I'll make use of any willing hands to gently fold the remains within and lay them down on the floor. Then I'll be looking to head out again.
Out of Character: Sorry to be a little abrupt, but time to move this along I think.

One of the elf boys will volunteer to stay with Be. In the room. As the rest of you get ready to move along. You did not find any cloth to cover the skeleton and She does not seem to mind it sitting there as she was moving from one area to another looking at everything. She had a smile on her face like she was in her natural element. It seemed to be rather therapeutic to her to be doing something she loved to do.
