The
shield on the yuan-ti sentry might have stopped magic missiles, but it does nothing to stop Nerin's blade. The hero's sword bites deeply into the creature's shoulder, nearly felling him, while Lealani just barely eliminates the last yuan-ti scout.
The yuan-ti sentry struck by Nerin responds with a flick from his own wand at point blank range into the warrior's chest (
-8 hit points to Nerin). The second yuan-ti sentry struggles, but fails to escape from the goo once more.

Andvari strikes at Arkos, who fails miserably at trying to start up the flyer on his second try. This time he connects with two slams to the mephling's head. Arkos hears his own cracking bones as he collapses next to the flyer (
-36 total hit points to Arkos).

"You may have been so artificial, but in the end you were all too human, Henri, or Arkos, or however you wish to be called." Andvari moves to start his flyer, but stops as Arkos gets back up. The golem stares at him in what would be a human-like expression of surprise.
"How? How do you still stand, little man?"
Just then the grinding noise at the base of the ziggurat starts again, this time causing the front doors to begin to slide open.
OOC: I didn't see a post where Nerin has a
shield up. I think only Sarpot and Mellisande have activated girdles, unless I'm mistaken. Goo escape check now down to DC 17, though none of the party is currently stuck. Arkos is down to 10 hit points and is several dozen feet overhead at the top of the ziggurat.
Init:
Mellisande: 16
Nerin: 15
Lealani: 14
Arkos: 10
Sarpot: 10
