And you are not able to work on the cricles or puzzles during combat. The time it takes to attmept to disable them or decipher the riddles would leave you exposed for far too long (as for the 'librarian's disable' option, just go with it as an abstraction. Like what exactly hit points are :)
As the earthen 'things' form from the walls, Keriassa and Jade fire two arrows at each creature. Only one of Keriassa's hits, and even that arrow only seem to partially crack the guardian's skin.
At the other end of the chamber, Crios and Kivuli also move in sync to flank to construct. The wayang recognizes these as Graven Guardians - constructs built and tied to a specific faith to act as a divine servant and guard. From the dinosaur skulls and the rest of your day, you're pretty sure these are Ayrzul's. Graven Guardians have DR 5/adamantine and some measure of spell resistance. They can haste themselves once each day and their melee weapons are always keen - even blunt instruments like these two's morningstars. Such constructs can also gain some other abilities based on two of their 'god's domains. While their rocky hide seems to imply that they may have more natural armor from the Earth domain, you can't yet tell what the other may be (based on Ayrzul's domains, the other possibilites are Strength - Power Attack, Evil - +1d6 damage against good creatures, or Destruction - shatter twice a day
Both Crios and Kivuli hit the flat-footed creature Though you can't flank it from its current position, leaving their mark even as they do find their weapons not fully effective. In response, the construct strikes twice at 1d2 ⇒ 2 Kivuli.
The construct sears and burns from the Professor's blast. Keriassa tries to tumble away, but the construct reacts just a bit too quickly and strikes out at the 'skaladin' with its morningstar.
AoO:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16 for damage:1d8 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 7 + (3) = 15 Kerissa: I am unsure if you are accepting your own song. If so, I believe that hits, correct?
Jade's second arrow hit and breaks off a chunk of her target. However and I forgot this, which would have happened on their turns last round, some of the damage slowly begins to mend. They have minor fast healing

Crios and Kivuli both land a single blow on the graven guardian in front of them before retreating to try and bait the creature out. the trick suceeds: the constrcut advances to swing twice at the wayang.
Keriassa repositions slightly and fires past Blanmieux, hoping to strike true.
She continues her powerful stanzas to the rhythm of her drawing and firing.
-2 AC as well
more song:
Will Isger men eke much ill abide, ’t will not ever after be out of men’s minds. Now the web is woven, and weapons reddened— in all lands will be heard the heroes’ fall.
Kivuli slides to his left, desperately dodging the monster's attacks and trying to find an opening in its defenses. He thinks he sees a chance and slides his blade down the handle of his opponent's morningstar and twists away from the parry in an attempt to strike his foe in the midsection.
Blanmieux: then after the temp hp you'd have taken a total of 2 damage. Going forward, can you specify you are ragin/accepting the rage? Or should I assume every round Keriassa is singing you are raging unless otherwise noted?
A good chunk of the arty attacks twice at the guardians, most hitting only half the time.
Jade's second arrow hammers the construct as Kivuli and Crios shift north to flank the guardian. A second strong swing by the magus and a calculated hit by the wayang manage to finish it off, and the dinosaur-faced creation crumbles back into rubble.
On the orb's other side, Blanmieux's first swing cuts straight through his target, but the other fails to connect. Combined with two accurate arrows though not a crit that guard too falls.
COMBAT OVER!!! Blanmieux 81/83hp
With the current immediate threat dealt with, the scholars cautiously move back towards the central orb. Gusts of air shoot forth sporadically, as if whatever is inside is yearning to be free.
You have up to two rounds to heal if needed (though no other actions). And talk amongst yourselves of course :) After that, you have another 'phase' is upon you. Again, you can attempt to solve some of the puzzle orb, or shut down one of the three remaining magic circles (Warding, Earth, Distortion)

yes always for Kerissa song with Blanmieux's stat Unless Said otherwise.
The librarian's muscles feel sore as he takes a time to breathe. "Kerissa, your song are like the old time. Heal me."
Really, why they have chosed wrath? A good armor would have been the better choice in the long term.
Blanmieux attacks the distortion circle. Those mooks are just puny.
Blanmieux succeeds at scoring deep, crippling gashes into the distortion ring. The Professor and Kivuli tackle the Earth circle, hoping to take some of the fight out of Ayrzul’s minions. The professor…does his best, but the rogue is again able to dismantle to buffering aura. The last warding circle still stands, now bereft of purpose. There’s technically one circle left, but on its own it doesn’t seem to be doing much.
Back at the orb, both Crios and Keriassa again try to draw upon their training in esoteric religions. Unfortunately, both seem stumped by the passages and questions posed by the facets they examine. Jade, in contrast, has the incredible fortune of spotting a tiny facet with the words ‘Push’ on it in Common. To some surprise, something that simple happens to work as touching the side causes it and a neighboring facet to vanish.
Suddenly another rumbling sound rings out. Looking again to the walls, two more stony creatures emerge, each with a rocky skull shaped like a velociraptor which on the Slide looks deceptively similar to a T-Rex head :p. Both graven guardians looke fierc, but have somewhat less mass than the previous pair, and the green glint is gone from their eye sockets.
Two quick arrows and one giant slam tear chunks out of the newest arrivals, but both still stand. Jade's target looks towards her for a moment, but lumbers to the closest Pathfinder: the Professor.
It raises its weapon and delivers a blow that absolutely batters the flat-footed old gnome.
It looks like I have a rather circuitous route to get into flank,
but it is possible to Avoid AoO, assuming it does not have reach. Here is a roll in case it does have reach.
If I do indeed provoke, I have enough movement to still get into position if he misses me.
As Blanmieux mocks the gods, some of them seem to take notice. Despite a flurry of attacks, only the cleric's fiery bolt lands to damage the divnely empowered guardians around you. And Kivuli could just avoid it's reach
Ignoring the wayang for the moment, the blue construct continues its assault on Crios and his enhanced staff.
The Professor's used more fire bolts in this special than he's used in his entire career as a Pathfinder to date! 1/7 will remain today after this round.
The Professor continues to back away from the construct while lobbing fire and shaking his other hand.
"Bad bad bad, guardian! Hitting your elders like that..."
Crios' passion is inflamed, but his accuracy only moderately so, as only his second swing connect the further injure the now solidly dented construct.
Unfortunately, while Jade closes with her target, both arrows miss their mark.
The raging barbarian in its face, the yellow Guardian's jawed head shakes as it swings its morningstar twice at Blanmieux.
Morningstar 1:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15 for damage:1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Morningstar 2:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 for damage:1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 Is the 16 AC non-raging Blanmieux? If so, then the first swing would hit too unless I'm missing something else

Keriassa, your shots were including the bless, correct?
The Professor quickly scrambles to bless your endeavors with divine assistance. Unfortunately you could use it, as whether from pure chance or Ayrzul’s influence Kivuli’s stab and both Keriassa’s arrows miss their mark, while Blanmieux lands only half of his blows.
Rubbles from the fighting continues to crawl across the ground, drawn to the surrounded Graven Guardian as it fill in and slowly mend it wounds. Oblivious (or uncaring) about these repairs, he continues his mindless assault on the aasimar.
Crios, with a furious yell, delivers two strong blows with his staff, each with enough force to break through the construct's stony form. A set of cracks spiderweb across it. The blue guardian stands for a second, then collapses into thousands of shards.
