Malaswyn attempts to dispel the barrier, calling out for Her aid.
Kalsgrim moves forward, but meets an invisible barrier as he reaches the corridor.
Rocky moves directly toward his foe, gliding effortlessly through earth and stone.

Grinning as he finds himself on the other side of the wall, "Well alright! That's what I'm talking about!" He then sheathes his flail and draws his greataxe, preparing to move in and attack.
Marcel observes as Kalsgrim runs into something unseen. When the paladin advances no further, he decides to wait.
This hulking, roughly humanoid creature of dirt and stone explodes up from the earth, faceless save for two glowing gemstone eyes.

Rocky's roughly-shaped appendage swings out at the Gorumite.
"I got no way through that death trap! Don't suppose we got any way to get rid of this thing, do we?" he asks anyone.
"I have a spell that might be useful in this instance." Oberlin says, and rings of magical light snap into being around him, a near globe of slowly rotating runes outlined in blue and silver.
As Oberlin completes his spell, there is a gong, more felt than audible and a burst of silver energy in the space between the two walls.
Oberlin wills the spells away. His power extends to meet that of the ancient warrior and connects, but fails to disrupt the other caster's will on reality. The spells hold.
Marcel took off in a low crouch, moving quickly. He ducked under the flailing arms of the elemental, and somersaulted past the priest? of Gorum. Skidding on his knees, he spun a pirouette, and came up behind the man, sword in hand.
Marcel reaches into his handy haversack and pulls a potion. He thumbs the stopper - not removing it just yet - and waits for the invisible wall to drop.
Round 5
As Oberlin fails to dispel the spells protecting the gorrumite, Kriger, Marcel, and Kalsgrim remain unable to approach him, but not Rocky, who resists his dismissal attempt and moves in to engage, passing through the barrier and engaging the large man.
The elemental swings his rocky fist, but the guardian dives under the blow, then stabs back, his spear diving through the rocks and gushing sands.
"I didn't realize Gorum was fond of cowards." Marcel taunts. "You can't send us to Pharasma while hiding behind that wall."
Kalsgrim’s fate proves strong and Erastil blows the barrier perventing you from reaching the gorrumite.

Realizing he can't do anything where he's at, the ranger shrugs his shoulder, "Here goes nothing. Man this is gonna hurt." Without another thought, he runs through the blade barrier hoping he can make it through the other side without things getting to gory.
A bit stunned he made it through with only a few nasty cuts, "Alright! Not bad." Kriger takes advantage and moves closer to the guardian but not too close to get stabbed by its spear.
"Now that I think about it," Marcel continues, "I didn't think Gorum was fond of his lackeys sitting back and throwing spells like weakling wizards."
He throws look towards Oberlin, hoping he didn't hear that...
Rocky goes all out to attack.
Meanwhile, Malaswyn puts his bow to use.
