Kaeleen peeks out ready to fire and upon seeing the trio of hobgoblins are ruined, instead rushes forward to where Talgren is and checks on the youth. Kaeleen turns the boy over and, checking for signs of life, finds the youth to be well and truly dead.
Knowing his own foe has dropped, and hearing the falling thud of Grotz's victim over his own shallow breathing, Karl is able to relax slightly. As Elyan's spell courses through him, his breathing calms somewhat and he looks to the bard. "Thanks." Stepping out from behind the pillar, Karl moves forward into the room but, not wishing to run ahead of the others, limits his forward movement to the doorway.
Grotzkoshter rushes past Karl into the room, his focus on the threat of the archer. The half-orc also keeps an eye on the cowering goblins on the trash heap as well, watchful for any threatening moves even from the females and elders. Grotz advances on the goblin bowman, arcs his greataxe in the air, and promptly cleaves the creature in twain. 19 points of damage.
Elyan turns to his left and hears the soft but ready sound of kobold claws scritch scratching away down a hallway. The bard hisses for Karl and Kaeleen's attention. "It would appear that our good friend Meepo thinks to make his escape down yonder hallway." Elyan points to the left, to a spot where only moment ago the kobold had been standing but that is now empty.
The remaining goblin, having dropped its shortbow, flees with all haste through the open door, then slams the wooden door closed. The tribe of unarmed goblin wretches, women, children, and the very old and sick, shrink from Grotzkoshter's imposing form inside the room. The tribe huddles, trembling with fear, as far away from Grotz and Karl as they can get.
