Front:
[sblock] Tyler moves cautiously into the large space and nearly runs into a low table. In the near total blackness, sight is nearly useless and souns has taken over as the primary sense. "Brace yourselves my friends. We are not through yet." he says grimly, pushing slowly past the table.
Aleran comes in slowly behind. "Too dark," he mutters quietly, "Ars Solius du Maghi" and a brilliant, pure light pierces the darkness and your eyes, so used to the dark, scream briefly in pain. Around you you hear other sharp gasps.
Within seconds, your eyes re-adjust enough to see your fellow comrads, as well as several more of the brutish creatures.
in the circle of light, you can see several tables, all heavily worn and gouged, littered with the refuse of meals. there are low benches here as well and, along the wall to your left are tie downs for the overhead chandeliers. [/sblock]
Back:
[sblock] Uri fumbles ahead, feeling his way along the wall enough to get out of Swipes' way then stoops and bulls a torch out of his pack "Don't know why I didnt do this before" he mutters.
Swipe edges by in the darkness, tapping on the walls as he does so, "they sound preyy solid, I wouldn't want to have to break through one in a hurry..."
The torch sputters to life, the sudden light after so much darkness is briefly painfull but it passes after only a few seconds, revelaing a small alcove, where Uri is currenly holding the torch, as well as a counterspace behind where Swipe is now standing. [/sblock]

Waiting until after Aleran's action Tyler will step up and slash at the closest creature.

Front:
"AAaah!" Aleran Cries in surprise, "Plaiden colorezen!" and another blaring, horrific clash of colors flies forth from his hand, stunning both of the beasts. Tyler quickly rushes around the table and slashes one of them and Gerard, in a surprise move, goes OVER the table to get at the other and slashes it. Both creatures are now bloody and lifeless on the ground.
It is, unfortunately, at this time that a fourth creature comes out of the darkened room and comes in behind Tyler but is not able to get its heavy axe in a good position for a stike against Tylers armor.
Uri:
The small space you are in contains doors ahead of you and to your right. Both look solid and you are not sure where either leads but are fairly sure they do NOT lead back to the kitchen area where Swipe and Woden are.
Swipe:
You listen briefly at the door and can hear a sharp cry of alarm and, just as you open the door, you can see a bright flash ahead of you and several figures, one of which looks to be about seven feet tall or more!
There are leveral low shapes here, most likely table and benches and, to your right along the wall severl ties with great amounts of rope wound around them.

"Holy Light!" Tyler cries as he sees the axe miss him. He moves over the bodies until he is standing next to Gerard. He will be on all out defense for this round.
