Viggo finishes the manatransfer.

Sabbitha checks the spider beast, it has nothing on it save for a single long piece of blue silk clothe, the room is filled with more clothe of the same type.

Mehra moves to the nearby chest and opens it.
Inside the chest are two gold coins a bottle containing a strange liquid and a pointed skewer of some sort.

The skewer would be a better weapon than nothing. The potion might come in handy (though it is best not to drink now), and you might as well take the gold with you.

Take the blue cloth from the spider-being, it can likely be used as rope.

That reeks of trap. It might be the kind of trap that draws unwanted attention, too - an alarm or something which'd be worse for us than just a "kill you" trap. See those spider symbols on the walls, and the webbing? Didn't we run into a spider-person enemy? Better not mess with this room unless we have to.

there appears to be a variety of different weapons on it, these would make ideal tools for fighting monsters.

Sabbitha has mastered a new spell [minor telekinesis]! she can use it to gently push and pull small objects

David tries to use the spear to cut the webs, but the weapon isn't long enough.

you begin moving your physical form closer in case it is required.

Can they see what is in the bottle (a liquid or solid)? If it is a solid, can they uncork (with telekinesis) the bottle to get the item out?

Ah, you're talking about the webs on the flask, gotcha. Well, looks like we can't get it without springing the obvious trap, so we'll either have to have the one dude send in his familiar, or we'll just have to give it up, grab the weapons off the rack, and make our way elsewhere.
