Malaiz is about to point out that the head is unlikely to be able to reply as it is no longer attached to the lungs hence no air passing through the larynx. Then again he thinks, it's a reanimated dead body and he is able to pull magic scrolls out of thin air so anything is possible.
Putting the freshly sliced neck wound to his lips, Fechr would like to blow through what he assumes is the air pipe.

A weird noise emits from the dead man's mouth.

Giant Dances the Sea cannot determine the purpose of this dove's head. Perhaps it was once a pet of the fellow? Perhaps it was all that remains of his last meal, before he died in this miserable cell. Perhaps a magic talisman. Didn't help much. Either way, it is worthless to you. Unless you like dove's heads.
It becomes Giant's most treasured possession.

His... Precious.

So, just in case anyone wants to try escaping, here's a reminder of the map layout:

The group is currently milling around in the south-central cell, where the skull is on the map!

Malaiz will carefully walk up to the main door of the jail and have a quick out. He hopes his disguise will work.

Think the only thing to do is try the keys in the door to the west.

Giant will trail in their wake, cradling the dove's head to his chest and cooing gently to it.

The 'door' to the west is actually the foot of a staircase!

Fechr will follow the rest of the party, cradling the man's head to his chest and cooing gently to it.

Can I attempt a potentially whistle-prone stealthy sneak up (or down) the stairs to the far end?

Yes!

Roll a d20 to see if you can prevent yourself from whistling.

Lord Margar creeps up the staircase without a single note escaping his lips!

At the top, the party comes upon a hallway, running north-south. A flaming torch burns in a sconce just south of the staircase. Opposite this, a wooden door.

To the north, an iron cell-door, identical to those below.
