"Don't listen to him!" He yells.  She looks at Lornes with a forlorn look, and only shrugs lightly.Lornes then maneuvers himself, and gets to the doorway.Meanwhile, the skeletal figure tries to pin Tori'shel once more...It gets a 20 on its grapple check, but Tori'shel gets a 22....but it fails to get a tight hold on her.[spoiler]The woman smiles at Animus. "Well... unfortunately, I can't stay... my ride is here..." She winks at him, and dashes down the hallway, headed for the large room.[/spoiler]Lornes - [spoiler]You feel a sword slash at your back.  You take 11 points of damage.[/spoiler]From the doorway, a woman clad in dark armor bursts out of the hallway.  She is wielding a slightly curved blade, lined in blood.  As she comes out, Osius tries to clothesline her with his morning-star...Osius gets a 16, which misses....but she nimbly dodges out of the way.  She stops in front of Jirlai, her blade raised.Jansson pulls forth the pistol tucked into his belt, takes aim at the githyanki, and fires, a small shower of purple and silver sparks falling from the firearm.Jansson gets a 23 on his manifester check.Jansson gets a 20 on his attack roll, which hits!The bullet seems to strike the githyanki...The gun gets an 18 on its student check....and it blows into him, with a spark of silver and purple light.The githyanki takes 6 points.The githyanki smiles at Jansson, though he simply stands there, apparently waiting for something, as he is glacing at Jirlai in irritation.Tori'shel pushes the skeleton away from her, attempting to escape it's claws...Tori'shel gets a 21 on her Escape Artist check, while the cerak hyranil gets a 10 on its grapple check....and she kicks it away, landing lightly on her feet next to it.  She runs for the githyanki.[spoiler]Animus waits...[/spoiler]Ruth crawls slowly out of the grease, moving as carefully as possible to avoid slipping.  She then runs fifteen feet away from it, grabbing her shield.Kloranth curses. "Damn... should've known.  That's Luna there, in the doorway.  Be wary!"Shardorn touches Jansson lightly on the shoulder, chanting a short prayer...Jansson gets 8 back....and several wounds close and disappear at her touch.Syld concentrates for a moment, and yet another patch of grease appears, catching Jirlai, Luna, the githyanki, and Tori'shel...All four make their saving throws....however, all of them remain standing.Jirlai turns to the githyanki. "We can't take the priest... but she must be dealt with." He begins chanting, pulling a small pearl out of a pouch.  As he does, however, his feet being to slip...He makes his reflex save....but he continues, his feet finding purchase.  A moment later, the room feels cold, and a burst of shards of ice and cold wind spreads from the far end of the room, the extreme edge coming just short of where the sorcerer stands.Ruth, Narok, Shardorn, and Kloranth all take 30 points of damage.Jansson takes 28 points of damage.Syld takes 15 points of damage.The burst of ice and wind goes as quickly as it came, though Jansson, Narok, and Shardorn have fallen, pools of blood surrounding quickly melting ice littered around their bodies.Jirlai nods. "Now we can go."Narok bleeds.The githyanki nods. "Let us go." He gestures to Jirlai, Luna, and Tori'shel. "Hold hands.  Make a circle." They do so, and you can see the githyanki concentrate.  As he begins to do so, he almost slips...He makes his reflex save....but he does not.  After a few long moments, the four disappear in a flash of purple light, leaving no evidence that they were in the library.End combat.Damage TakenJansson - 39, 2 Dex [bleeding] (-5/34)Ruth - 30 (5/35)Syld - 15 (6/21)Narok - 30, bled once [bleeding] (-3/28)Shardorn - 30 (down)Kloranth - 30Lornes - 11</blockquote>
