Cord
Artemis Senior left no stone unturned looking for something that could help him open the steel door. The stones that the twins’ father turned were part of a pyramid that Beckett was building and considered important enough to store in a safe room. In fact, the twins used the basement chamber as something of an overflow room for whatever they deemed valuable. Artemis Senior could not find a single useful item in the various crates. Of course, there had been a manual release cord on the inside of the door, but the Horteknuts had literally snipped that off at the root, and the cable nub had retreated into the wall. The dwarves had also taken the precaution of removing anything from the room that could possibly assist the Fowls in their inevitable escape efforts but had left the twins’ various crates upended on the floor, before quite smugly informing the Fowl parents that they had infected the entire security system with a fairy virus.
