"Aye, one more door then."
Turning to look at the halfling beside him, Dunathar nodded his thanks to the priest.
"Many thanks Filbert for you and your god's kindness."
Stepping away from the others, Dunathar began examing the door in front of them checking for traps or alarms. Once done, Dunathar will then check to see if the door is locked.

Bert walks forward cautiously into the corridor a few feet to retrieve his dagger, trying to stay alert as he does so. Meanwhile Bert, Manzanita, Rowyn and Dunathar discuss their next move. Bert returns to the party, taking a position next to Dunathar, ready to heal him. Just as Filbert finds his spot behind Dunathar...
-- Round 1 --
The door at the end of the corridor bursts open. Inside the room are two humans, one standing by the door and the other standing behind a large desk. Both are armored, the closer one wearing scalemail and the further wearing chain.
The one behind the desk calls out “I don’t know how you found us, but it matters not! Die, fools!”
The human by the door throws a javelin, which flies down the corridor. Dunathar sees the javelin coming, and tries to react, but he’s not quick enough. The javelin sinks into Dunathar's torso. Tears well up in Dunathar’s eyes as he doubles over in pain, falling. [Flat-footed, 7 damage]
The human behind the desk chants mystical words, and a glowing heavy flail appears in the air in the space where Dunathar lies. Filbert, who was just behind Dunathar about to heal him, is hit with the full force of the blow. The flail hits him solidly on top of his helmet, and the little halfling falls to the ground, seeing nothing but black [10 damage]

OOC: Ouch. Not much time has passed since the end of the last combat, just a few seconds. You still feel the residual effects of Rowyn’s inspiring song. SW is the location of the glowing flail (Spiritual Weapon). Dunathar lies unconscious below it.

Everything happened in an instant it seemed to Dunathar as the door opened up suddenly in front of him and his companions. Looking at the two armored figures in front of him, Dunathar smiled grimly and tightened his grip on the morningstar, preparing once more to charge into the midst of combat to keep his weaker companions safe.
Before he could step over the dog's body to bottleneck the doorway, he saw one of the men draw a javelin and hurl it his way. As he prepared to leap out of its way, Dunathar remembered Filbert behind him and could not let the halfling take a blow meant for him. Wondering what he could do, the decision was made for him, as the javelin slammed into his chest, sinking deep and forcing Dunathar to his knees as the air was blasted from his body.
As his world began to fade to black, Dunathar saw a spectral flail floating through the air towards him and tried to speak a warning, but could not speak for the blood filling his mouth. Falling forward, Dunathar's last sight before everything faded to black was that of the guard dog that he had just slain moments before the door opened.
~Damn~...

-- Round 1 (cont) --
Rowyn starts singing again and retrieves a potion of cure light from her pack.
Devan nocks an arrow and fires at the human behind the door. Despite the cover, Devan's arrow hits its mark [8 damage]. The human looks at the arrow shaft in shock, before falling to the ground.
Manzanita mutters "Well, at least we know they're the bad guys..." She utters arcane words, casting Shield upon herself.
Zanock sees the glowing flail materialize in the air before him, striking Filbert down. Shocked and confused, Zanock strikes out at the glowing flail with his falchion. He misses.
Adromon sees Zanock swing at the flail and miss. Instinctively, Adromon follows suit. Dropping his glaive, Adromon draws his longsword and swings at the flail. The white-haired human hits the flail squarely, but his blow merely glances off, without seeming to do any damage. Zanock snarls "You have to hit it harder!" Adromon nods and grips his sword tight.
-- Round 2 --
The human behind the desk chuckles, a deep laugh filled with malicious intent. “There is no escape for you! Soon my troops will surround you, and you shall feel the wrath of Hextor!” The glowing flail moves forward and attacks Devan, striking him solidly [8 damage].

OOC: Attacking the glowing flail does no good, but Zanock and Adromon don't know that. They think they just need to overcome the weapon's hardness.
