The other devices were covered in dust, I take it? Unfortunately we lack for that indicator here; I imagine the rain falling has kept it away over time.
[Beat, then she amends:] At least, the devices I inspected were exposed to the elements. There may be one or two beneath the eaves of a roof or other cover.
[Up the stairs! Alisaie will gesture toward one of the devices in particular.]
That one we spent some time trying to operate. It might well be the first worth examining; it's conveniently placed to anyone who might have thought to utilize it last night. I can say with certainty that the handle was pointed straight down.
No, it can't. [She frowns, considering.] Perhaps one of the others will show signs of use? We don't know whether the sounds we heard last night came from only one of these devices, or if all of them were operated.
Failing that, we may be able to mark these in such a way that we could tell if they were used again.
