<<---First clue
<--Previous clue


This is an entry in the 26th Fortnightly Topic Challenge.


You speak the password. The entire space shudders, and the wall that you were leaning on open, spilling you headfirst into... an art museum? There are all of the pictures from the previous Clues there, but you ignore those. You focus on the new ones, which appear to be freehand drawn on the computer:

You look around for a place to enter the answer. Finally, you see a door on the other side of the room, with the now-familiar keypad.

You cross the room and type in...

The answer is

Tungsten.

First

This looks like a smiley. So, may be it;s STICKING TONGUE OUT.

Second

Could be Parseltongue (Snakes language)

Third

This could be either number 10 or Tally Marks.

So the answer is

Tungsten. i.e. Two tongues and a ten.


OP's intended solving

The first image

This is indeed sticking it's tongue out. So that's tongue, or tung.

Second image

This is a picture of a snake, with a question mark for what it says. SO that's s.

Third

These are 10 tally marks, so ten.

All together, that's

tungsten.
