While it may not be wise, Nia is not particularly curious about the mud. She will light a torch and move towards the hallway to see if there are clues about this underground chamber’s purpose outside the room itself. She will walk with her torch in her shield hand and be prepared to draw a weapon if necessary. If others are more interested in the mud-room, she will position herself to guard the approach into the room from one side of the hallway.

What is the source of the blue glow? Is it just... there, lighting things up? Does it cast shadows? If it has a source, does it feel warmer on the side facing the source? Or cooler, or any sort of tactile sensation?
From spending a bit of time in the room, and watching the rest of the party and himself walk through or at least disturb the mud, it seems to be both the mud and the chamber itself that are casting the blue light. The whole room is seemingly illuminated in this way, as there are no shadows being cast. You can take a handful of the mud and make a serviceable [low light] light source out of it, if you were so inclined.
One thing of note is that the chamber/cave and its contents don't seem to be the source of the blue glow seen from Locke that directed you to here --- they are not themselves bright or radiant enough to cast that much light over that much of a distance.
