temple ruins

In the temple ruins early on you find a statue of Amaunator. It is the statue that asks the morning, noon, and nighttime rituals. Previously, before ToB was installed, the [tab] feature to find doors and stash wasn't available. If I [tab] in the room with the statue, the left eye lights up as if there is something to get. The left eye is also trapped, however, I cannot disarm the trap nor grab the goodies because as soon as you try, the area is overwhelmed with the conversation available icon. Does anybody know what is in this stash spot. I can't remember if I ever grabbed this stuff or not. If this has happened to you, you know what I am talking about. If not, sorry if this is confusing as it is difficult to put into words.

Additionally, I have already answered all the questions to each of the three rituals and received a chunk of the symbol of Amaunator.

Ned,

I know exactly what you are talking about, and as far as I know there are no goodies in the statue's eye. At least, I have never been able to get anything. A shame about Maude - you have my sympathy

There is a diamond in the statue's eye. To get it, after your thief has revealed the trap, have your party move back so that the statue is left in the "fog of war" and the blue circle around it disappears. The trap will remain highlighted for a few seconds. Now, while keeping the statue in the fog of war, have your thief disarm the trap. He will move up to the statue and do so. Have the thief move back again, until the statue's blue circle disappears again, then have him or any other party member click on the statue's eye. He will then be able to grab the diamond.

@ Sojourner,

OUTSTANDING WORK MAN!!!!!!!!!!!

How did you figure that out, or, did it just happen.

I could have sworn I did the same thing in a previous game (will this game ever get boring?) but I don't remember; obviously, or I wouldn't be asking.

I read about it, but can't remember where.

While playing multiplayer witha friend the game shifted thing from one computer compared to the other. So his statue talk icon was to the left of the statue it self. He was then able to retrive said items, though I thought I got a Flamedance ring or something equaly worthless as well as the diamond.
