Attilius will walk counterclockwise the perimeter of the rooms walls searching for secret doors. His shield will face the pile of bones should something jump out at him.

Chat'cho stays in the doorway, watching closely. Why should she care about exploring some boring bone room? Better to just wait here and cast 'come back to life' if anything kills the big man.

"The cells appear to be for holding prisoners. This chamber? Hard to say. I suppose the gaoler could take meals here, but why would a gaoler need a huge chamber like this for dining? And it's too small to be an arena."

"The cells appear to be for holding prisoners. This chamber? Hard to say. I suppose the gaoler could take meals here, but why would a gaoler need a huge chamber like this for dining? And it's too small to be an arena." "Or simply a trophy room. I've seen sick gladiators keep pieces of their latest victims, ears, fingers, stuff like that..." he says as he continues searching. [Bob after the walls have been searched he'll wade through the bones with his shield and gouge looking for anything hidden within or perhaps a trap door below.]

It sounds like a hundred failed games of Jenga as the goliath wades through bones.
Danger senses are triggered as Attilius begins to search the back wall. [Negates surprise.]
Worms, five feet or so in length, begin to emerge from at least two points from the same wall. The have ugly, distressed human faces, pale, bloated sickly yellow bodies and are covered in disgusting clear slime. They slither and flop forward, not of much thought, yet towards you. Beneath the heads, little black feeler feet jiggle.

"GIANT CENTIPEDES!" Attilius calls out as he moves in a clockwise motion to keep his tower shield against the wall and create a left flank barrier.
Initiative 3 - Gouge: 5/Shield punch: 11 AC -8 (-10 vs. ranged attacks)
Attack 1: hit AC 4; 15 non-magical slashing damage Spin Attack 2: CRIT! hit AC -10; 24 non-magical slashing damage
If the creature is still alive he'll lift his shield and slam it down on it's head. If dead he'll slam the 2nd one's head. Attack 3: hit AC -7; 17 non-magical bludgeoning damage

The *first* two are killed.
That's when four come from where ever it was the other two were residing.

Niachi nods to Chat’s response, understanding the druid’s frustration and hopes. As the cells are explored he will illuminate each one. “Any bone readers or deadspeakers in our options?”
"I can speak with the dead if need be by calling upon the powers of Kurn."

Chat'cho trots up to Attilus from behind, placing her hands against the small of his back! "Crush the mm, warrior. I a mm with you." Attilus's Strength score increases from 23 to 25!
[Strength of Stone spell]
[Occurs on Initiative 14]

(OOC: Bob, can Quila in the meantime/retcon have looked into the cells containing lone skeletal remains to infer what race they were?)
