Continue on the trail up the foothills together

Duran nods "I'm not too keen on entering a space where we can easily be ambushed, and our strength in numbers is not so advantageous."
Together, your party continues up the trail winding around the mountain. The vegetation begins to change as you climb higher in altitude. Soon, the trees are only tiny, withered things, scarcely more than shrubs, growing in a low-oxygen environment at this high elevation.
After cresting a false peak, a tall, obsidian tower, thirty meters high, comes into view. It is built next to the true peak of the mountain you are on, and was impossible to spot from down below.
Duran's face darkens. "This is no ordinary tower, nor was it here the last time your father's scouts mapped this area."
One of the guard agrees, "this smacks of wizardry, captain."
Duran nods "we must be extremely cautious from this point forward. Draw no weapons, yet."
Approaching the base of the tower, you can see that there is a gateway leading directly to a stairwell hewn directly into the obelisk; there is no stonework or masonry evident: the tower is smooth as glass on the outside, and completely black. Nothing seems to be guarding the tower, and there are no other entrances visible after a brief search.
"I don't like it" Duran mutters, "probably a trap."
