Q:
"Beware shifting piles of stone, they might be more alive than you think, stirring the resting Stone Golem."
1. Beware shifting piles of stone
Which does this mean, "beware when shifting piles of stone", or "beware the piles of stone which are shifting positions themselves" ?
2. I'm not sure how the sentence "stirring the resting Stone Golem" can be connected so. Is this something like "... less alive you think, then you stir the resting Stone Golem." ?

A:
"Beware" can be a transitive verb. You can beware a thing directly. The sentence instructs you to beware all shifting piles of stone.
"Stirring the resting Stone Golem" is incorrect in that sentence because it is a dangling participle (a participle where the noun it applies to is not in the sentence.) I'm guessing that the intended meaning is "If you get too close to a shifting pile of stone, you may stir a resting stone golem and make it wake up."

A:
#1 and #3 have the same meaning. #1 is the most grammatically correct; I suggest you use this one.
#3 should use a contraction, because it is conversational:
"I've got piles of work to do."
#2 is very grammatically incorrect; you can say it in conversation, but it sounds uneducated.
