As a free action, Vandomir will add +1 to his armor for a minute. He maintains holy on the bow. He glances around, to see what happened to the prisoner, [b]"My spell didn't release her, someone is going to need to do that manually. I'll stay on the beast. He fires another volley.

From beneath the table Bazzle throws the crack at the Kyton. Then lunges with his dagger trying to stab at it twice.
Vandomir eviscerates the Kyton with his holy bow. The animated Iron Maiden immediately stops moving.
Hortense is technically conscious, but completely disabled. With time and medical attention, she will recover physically, but mentally might be a different story.
A loud explosion is heard from the back of the Holding House. Looking through the open door in the Torture Chambers, most of the people have already started making their way down to the sewers.
"Time to go!"
Rexandi uses her healing hex on Hortense to at least try to get her onto her feet.
Vandomir will aid Hortense to move, if needed. Willing to throw her on his shoulders, if that will get us moving too.
Bazzle nods and starts to head out. He stops at the guards that the Ravens let live. "You live because we hope that those that truly love Kintargo will see that Barzzi Thrune is a cancer. When it suited him he turned on the Hellknights of the Torrent, you serve Thrune do you think he is loyal to you? The Silver Ravens give you back your lives. Do better."
As he moves toward their escape route, "Hurry back to the . . ."
As the group exits the torture chambers with a partially healed, but still extremely weak Hortense, Bazzle quickly pulls on whatever strings of morality the prison guards had. A moment of consideration flashes across their eyes, but Bazzle is uncertain what effect his generosity will result in. That being said, when he tries to refer to a non-existant hideout, even Bazzle feels sheepish in the poorest lie he has ever told. The rest of the group just look at him with rolling eyes.
One of the Torrent armigers is still watching over the captives, and he says "Lictor Sabinus hasn't returned yet. Shall we search for him?" However, at that moment, a voice howls from the front of the Holding House.
"DOTTARI! EVERYONE ON THE GROUND!!"
"Returned from where?"
"He said he was going to go through the storage, where all our gear is. It's to the left, and then take a... Oh s#+$!"
Bazzle looks in the direction that the startled Hellknight is looking.
"We can't leave without him." Aster says. "Go get him. I'll hold the Dottari off." in her wererat form she might hold a choke point for a while.
Bazzle sees that the Hellknight is simply shocked from the Dottari guard that just came through the front.
The Hellknight nods to Aster and starts moving.
Rexandi moves to back up Aster.
"I've had it with these guys. I'm full of anger and lightning bolts, so just let me know when the Dottari are coming down the hall."
Bazzle points "the're the fresh angry ones." He rushes as fast as he can toward the equipment lock up he will use walls and ceilings to avoid enemies.
Rexandi turns profile and draws her hands in a slightly-parted pattern, reminiscent of grasping an invisible orb. Sparks fly between her fingers and then with a few mystical syllables she unleashes a familiar arc of lightning down the hall at the Dottari.
Aster moves forward, but quickly darts out of the way as Rexandi mentions Lightning Bolts. Fortunately, Rexandi holds on, knowing there are innocents in the way. The Dottari race into the Holding House as an unstoppable unit, with the man in the front carrying a tower shield. He smacks one of the supporters with a green warhammer, knocking the poor guy unconscious. The crazy elf turns around and runs up to the guard room, and closes the door. He starts laughing hysterically.
Vandomir isn't in the mood for conversation, so he starts lighting up the nearest Dottari (preferably one not covered by the tower shield)...
