Miimas: "Let's not test it unless if we really have to."
You look in the direction of the movement, trying to make out any shapes among the rotting cores.
Scanning the bulbous shapes, your eyes lock on to a familiar robed creature with bird-like features and a pointy hat. If its height is a good measure of its rank, it looks fairly powerful, maybe a foot or so taller than you.
The witch seems to be patrolling the area, occasionally glancing towards your team as it searches the landscape for, something.

You wave Monk over, and the two of you proceed towards the forest.
It isn't long until you reach the remains of the watch tower, which is now a huge, bottomless hole in the ground.
Monk: "Think there's something down there?"

You knock on the door, and jump back startled as something (ineffectively) slams into it from the other side.
A faint scream is heard through the door.

You knock, but nothing responds.
Feeling around the area for magic, it seems like there's some sort of magically-operated device that manages the door. Disabling would probably, at the very least, prevent it from trying to keep itself closed, possibly allowing you to force it open with Stahlnacht's strength.
