Richard curses. "Another terror, unleashed. We will slay her, I promise you." For the first time, maybe ever, you see Richard visibly upset. "Let's search the other rooms, maybe she's still in here."
CoT link seems to point at a different map. But let's try another room.
NARRATOR GS Map / SS MAP/
Let's Pick room 24
The shelves along the walls of this room are filled with glass cases, each containing a different expanse of parchment covered with stylized writing and elaborate wax seals.
Four, ordinary humans stand near the entrance and a shadowy figure in back. As soon as you open the door, you suddenly can't hear a sound.

Richard tries to speak- only to hear silence. Only Sherix can detect his feelings.
Annoyed
He draws his whip and tries to trip the closest person before they can react. 2 blocks east
Whip trip vs Flat footed CMD, Cover?: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 18

Sherix transmits her immediate feelings back to Richard, then sits perched on his shoulder.

Round 1
Richard trips one of the humans. The other two humans in the back do not move and continue to stiffly stand there gripping daggers. The one that Richard trips stands up.

Richard holds his whip back as Tal advances.
Decoys!
He points towards the shadowy figure in the back.
Threat.
@GM: Not sure if I have actions remaining to make a Bluff check to pantomime a simple message.
NARRATOR GS Map / SS MAP/
Oops! When I mentioned that they were standing still, I did not mean to imply that they couldn't move or were unable to. What I was trying to imply was that these people in everyday people clothes holding non-descript daggers is not running away from a heavily armed and armored, experienced party such as yourselves.
@Tal: If you attempt an overrun, they will take an AOO and per this thread you will need overrun twice.
If anyone wants to revise their action based on the above, please feel free to do so.

Richard quickly edits his message to indicate they are in a trance, but the real threat is in the back.

Ahh ok that changes things. Since they look like enthralled people then Tal will go for a more direct approach and just smack them with the flat of his blade to do subdual damage.

Mera watches Tal take a run at moving these people, holding her glaive in her hand silently. Normally she'd break into an inspirational speech or song, but this ominous magical silence is preventing her beautiful voice from being heard.

Tal knocks one of the unarmored people out cold with the flat of his blade.
Jair smiles as he points to Tal and casts a spell.

@Kioshi & Edric: The silence is cast on one of the doors. For either of you to cast any spell (including the Morrowfall) out of the range of the spell you will lose line of sight-unless you are casting a spell without verbal components.
They were waiting on you and just like you all prepared for dealing with vampires, they have prepared for those who have prepared for vampires!

The fact that her companions couldn't hear her beautiful voice didn't stop Mera from inspiring her allies. Moving up to where her allies can see her, she enters into an inspirational dance routine.

I was hoping for an opening. :-/
Kioshi starts to move and then suddenly opens a rift in space and jumps to the other side of the masses.
Dimensional slide move action. 1 arcane reservoir point.
When he arrives he casts mirror image!

I cannot manipulate the map in dropbox so that I would appreciate if you could move his icon to seven squares behind the dark person! Thank you!

Richard raises an eyebrow as Kioshi was here, now he's there!
He smiles as Mera begins her interpretive dance, then moves in front of Mera and tries to trip the woman 10 feet east of him. This provokes an AoO from the man in the upper left corner. Richard is doing this to test if they are threats or not.
Whip + Inspire Courage vs CMD: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 2 = 27
Maybe Tal can squeeze in and knock the other people out. No idea how long Kioshi will last...

Richard trips the woman TP4 which does inspire an attack from the man. With no emotion on his face, he attempts to stab Richard.
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
He misses.
The man in the back continues to hold his position.

Tal steps into the space just vacated by the target Tal subdued earlier. Taking advantage of his positioning he continues to try and make a path to the figure in the back.
Power subdual damage keen heroism inspired 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28 for 1d8 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

Round 2
Ignoring the multiple Kioshi's for the moment, Jair will take a five-foot step and cast blindness on Tal who is clearing a path to him.
@Tal: DC18 Fort save or blinded.
Suddenly appearing right behind Edric is the woman you fought earlier!
Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

Tal thanked the gods above for protecting him as he felt a strange pull upon his face. Luckily he was able to blink the sensation free before he went blind. Gripping the longsword tightly Tal was ready to move forward or back to take out whichever foe needed to be vanquished first.

Kioshi casts a fireball killing all the townspeople. In the moment of their deaths, it seems like they break free of the dominance and scream in agony as their flesh burns!
Reflex save DC20: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Even as his own flesh burns, Jair is giddy! Well! Dominating those poor, unfortunate souls worked out well! Looks like Mommy and Daddy won't be going home to their children tonight! He laughs evilly as he taunts Kioshi.

Tal don't forget I had IC up.
As a performer they teach you to roll with the punches and keep the show moving. Don't get interrupted. Don't focus on external stimuli.
An explosion of flame that melts the faces of innocent townsfolk seemingly goes above and beyond someone throwing a cabbage at you.
Mera's performance falters as she gasps silently in horror, stumbling back a few steps to shield herself from the heat of the spell.
We must kill to avenge them! Unleash my wrath!
Tightening her grip on her glaive, she moves forward and screams silently as she tries to bury her blade into their foe.

Seething at the situation Tal moves forward and targets the downed vampire. I hope you burn forever for this. He then brings his long sword down in 1 powerful blow trying to cut the vampires head off.

Kioshi is a little surprised.
"Ehhh ... you mean ... ehh ... I mean I thought they were on their side. I thought they are all vampires!?!" he says in shock.
"I mean ... ehh ... you mean they were controlled? Ehhh ... really? Oh no... " he says in shame and frustration.

Richard finally collects himself. Calm down. He... he didn't know... "Hold Tal. Hold!" Richard drops his whip and intercepts Tal. Starting down the man and his rage, weapon held high. "He doesn't know about vampires the way we do."
"Kioshi. They... may have been controlled. A vampire can get into your mind and separate it from the body. You may become a prisoner of your own body." He exhales and reaches for the holy water right before Edric does the deed for him.
"We will give these people a proper burial." He kneels to check to see if the people have any identifying remains.

Mera moves to the crispy fallen bodies of the townsfolk, dropping to a knee. "I'm going to -" she turns her head and retches. It takes her a few more times before she stops, wiping her mouth and the tears from her eyes.
She stares at Kioshi with wild eyes, silently asking WHY!?

Kioshi feels remorse, shame, anger and humiliation at the same time.
“I ... I ... ehhh ... “ he starts but he is lacking words to express what he feels.
He grips his holy symbol of Chaldira and also kneels down next to corpses.
His horned lizard familiar moves down from his back ... almost as if even the intelligent animal wants to distance himself.
In a low voice he eventually is able to utter “I ... I am ... ehh ... I am so sorry... “ !and tears are visible in his eyes which are now focused on the burnt corpses of these innocent people.
