"Ha!" Desmond quietly exclaims, giving the bars the evil eye as he rubs his shoulder where it feels raw from a scrape. Then he quickly puts his padding and leather armour back on and fastens his sword around his waist before examining the mechanism.
Sparked by an idea he had when he was squeezing through the bars, he asks the others (as he assembles his armour), "Anyone have a bit of oil on them we can spare? We might try and loosen up any gears or parts where metal slides on metal we can find and make the mechanical bits move easier while reducing the noise of it all."
If anyone is able to produce a vial of oil, he will use his knowledge of such things to apply it in the appropriate places before he tries the mechanism for raising the gate.
It might be better to stack the cards in our favour before we try raising the gate. It looks like it was dropped rather forcefully and there might be some damage to the mechanism. But I don't know what our situation is for light and how much oil we might need for that. Fortunately, as long as we have Dieter's sword we're not likely to be eaten by a Grue...
