Looks like you have found an encounter that noone has solved.
My guess is that if you touch the mirrow and call out something,
you get locate character/scry hex/locate artifact (maybe),
and if you do anything else the skeleton responds.  With a high
challenge, you could attack the skeleton, or a high Agent rating
you could try stealing stuff.

Please let us know what you try and what happens.

My data says that MEEK will let a neutral escape, while the same response
from a free will provoke combat.
