Let me set the scene here from the point of view of those in the side corridor:The remnants of the gelatinous cube are puddled at the intersection, smoke still filling that area.  You heard the yell of encouragement from Muzdin, followed by his 'yelp' (do Dwarves yelp? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> ).So tell me exactly what everyone plans to do.  Myst is charging towards the intersection.  Stellan will follow.I will assume that Muzdin turns to see what scratched him, and so below is what he sees.Muzdin feels a wave of numbness pass over him for a second, his legs threatening to give out.   But then it passes, and as he turns he sees two... pale things on either side of him attached to the walls.  Because of where they actually are, there's a moment before he can realize that they're actually humanoid in shape.  Small - maybe 3 feet 'tall', with wide heads and sharp, needle like teeth.  It must have been the hands that struck Muzdin, as both have one hand raised - sharp claws gleaming in the remaining light from the gelatinous cube as it burns.  They draw back with matching hisses as Muzdin turns, somehow appearing to sense the motion in spite of their lack of eyes.  Where eyes should be, there is instead a featureless slight indentation in the face to either side of a very shallow impression of a nose.  Both creatures are almost white and appear to be naked, but the one on the left seems to have something gleaming on one of the fingers of the hand that had swiped at the dwarven cleric.</blockquote>
