He fired an arrow into the elf's neck.The dark elf was dead. There would be no negotiations.  The drow was not alone. Several twangs were heard. And Ulfgar fell over napping. The room also went dark. Bartol charged into the room. He grabbed Ulfgar and dragged him back to the stairs. Erik moved forward to cover Bartol's retreat. Neither of them could see well."It's a trap and you are in on it," Bernedette accused Veridian. She covered herself in magic.Thane hurried back to Ulfgar. He started looking him over for any wounds. He discovered a poisoned bolt. Veridian crept forward into the room for cover. There were several columns to hide behind. A drow male captured Erik's attention. He fired a bolt at him from a hand crossbow. Two more fired at Veridian. After leaving Ulfgar to Thane's care, Bartol moved in the direction of the sounds of battle. He left the darkness, only to be attacked by a spiked chain. A female drow blocked his path. She became visible with the attack. Bartol swung wide. Erik moved closer and attacked the male. Bernedette moved to Bartol's aid. She tried to cast a spell from Timmay's repertoire. It failed against the drow, but slowed a large spider. Two spiders had joined the battle.Thane's work would not rouse the dwarf, but it would prevent him from suffer any ill effects. Veridian fired at Erik's opponent. The drow female lashed at Bernedette bouncing off her magic. The drow continued to fire at the combatants. Veridian was struck again. And the spider bit him. Erik's opponent missed. Bartol split the female drow in two. He advanced to the next one. Erik fought and killed his drow. Bernedette moved to finish the frozen spider. She wounded it. Thane summoned some magic and attacked Veridian's spider. Veridian moved aside and drank a potion. He vanished.  The spider lunged for Thane. One drow attacked Bernedette and the other ran. Bernedette went down. Bartol swung at the drow near Bernedette. He got stuck instead. His Greatsword and his locking gauntlets worked against him. Erik pulled him free.Thane splatted the spider with his cudgel. Veridian moved into position and fired into the web. It stopped the arrow. A door closed in the distance. The drow concentrated on the caller. He lifted his sword to end her life. Bartol raged. His Greatsword tore thru the web and the drow. Body parts fell on the caller. He finished his rage on the frozen spider. Erik moved to the doorway thru which the other drow had fled.Battle was over for now. Bartol gave Bernedette another potion."What happened?" Bernedette asked. "Are we safe?""Not yet," Bartol answered. He stumbled back to the dwarf.</blockquote>
