Indeed there is movement. As the pathfinders cross the room, four of the exhibits start to lurch forwards. Arrghhhh!
A quick glance shows:
a old Ossiain corpose (red)
a skeletal Kellid warrior (blue)
a skeletal Qadiran warlord (with some armor) (green) and
a warrior in bronze armor (yellow)

The well-educated wizard's knowledge:
Don't know if I can get away with one roll or four so in order of appearance (the way you listed them above):
knowledge (religion):1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 knowledge (religion):1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18 knowledge (religion):1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12 knowledge (religion):1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

ray of frost fire v black/blue(?) (versatile evocation, range touch):1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15fire damage:1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 Choosing fire for the fact that some undead aren't bothered by the cold. If Natula knows better because of the above rolls she switches to the most appropriate elemental damage type. She may draw her staff as well as part of her 5-foot-move for the bludgeoning damage if they seem vulnerable to that sort of thing.

Seeing a possible flank, Anibal quickly dashes past the bench (?) and uses his bare fists in an attempt to pacify the threatening creature (black border).
Natula recognises...
The Osirian sage as a ghoul
The Kellid sa a skeleton
The Qadiran warlord as another skelton and
The bronze legionnaire as a zombie.
All are armed, and most are armoured.
Not that the armour helps against the fire that springs from her fingers.
It helps even less against the pummeling that Anibal gives is. The Kellid drops to the floor, unmoving again.

Aiden dodges to one side, easily avoiding the legionnaire's swipe. The ex-slaver slices at the armored creature, once high and once low using his two curved knives.

Unfortunately, I am threatening 'yellow' with my polearm, but only for the moment.
With the Kellid skeleton down and the zombie legionnaire engaged with Aiden, Hakimo turns her attention to the ghoul (red) and charges. "Behind us! Two more!"

"Hakimo, try to hit the ghoul again. Do the blow above, try to cut through his collar bone. Anibal, try fists to punch the skeleton. Don't use a bow, it is not effective against him."
Two move actions on two using of 'Combat Advice'. Hakimo & Anibal, you have +2 on next attack roll. Hakimo vs red and Anibal vs green. The method of attack is not important. I'm just roleplaying "advices".
She fearlessly looks at the undead.
"Well, try it, you pitiful dumb creatures." - she throws back her head and laughs a nasty voice.

"Again the undead. Why me."
He grabs a crossbow and shoots (red)... But the bolt flies much above the head of the undead. Realizing that he missed, Zaamir makes a step back.
The Ossirian sage unleashes a frightful series of bites and claws upon Hakimo
3 attacks at +3:3d20 ⇒ (6, 20, 2) = 28 crit?:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
One of its filthy claws gets through her defences
damage:1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4, and as it does so she feels her body start to seize up, being slowly overtaken by undead energies!
The Bronze Legionnaire continues its own mindless attack on Aiden.
attack:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
But he deflects its longsword.
The skeletal warlord closes on Anibal, striking out with a silvered scimitar.
attack:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
The strike is a good one, cutting through his meagre protections.
damage:1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
The undead fearlesly press their attack.

Aiden frowns as his knives fail to penetrate the creature's armor. He pauses, studying the Legionnaire's movements, and then thrusts one of his knives forward.

Hakimo quickly brings down her bardiche again as the ghoul screaches and attacks her. "Another strike for Yatasumi!" Having landed another blow to the ghoul, she brings her polearm around for an overhead chop on the...
Hakimo would have had an AOO as the ghoul closed the distance on her.
FortSave:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15In case, the AOO didn't kill it.
Hakimo will take a 5' step back and attack the ghoul if still alive. If not, then she will move to attack the skeletal Qadiran warlord (green) from 10'.
The ghoul only had to 5' step, which doesn't generate an AOO, which is why it also got a full attack
Natula melts some of hte bronze warrior, while Aiden prepares himself by studying its weaknesses. Anibal tries and fails to land a blow.
Hakimo however has success, landing a solid blow on the seer which drops it.

Zaamir shoots ... and also misses. While the mysterous Kida shouts out lots of advice to folk.
The Bronze Legionnaire tries once again to slash Aiden with his longsword.
attack:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
But the agile Aiden steps aside at the right moment and the blow passes without effect.
The skeletal warlord's silver scimitar slashes out of Anibal
attack:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
It draws blood and only narrows avoids an artery.
damage:1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Aiden nods with the slightest motion, realizing the undead warrior couldn't even anticipate his strike by hearing Kida. Fire from over his left shoulder burns the Legionnaire, and the man tries to use that moment to slice at the creature's neck.

Quick question. I had posted that I'd take a 5' step back to attack the ghoul. I never moved her. When I do it now, I have a diagonal line clear to 'yellow'. Can I charge him?

Seeing Anibal's deep wounds, Zaamir rushes to help him. He moves for a back hand-to-hand fighter and and goes into a small trance.
CLW:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Anibal feels that the blood flow changes, and the wounds begin to heal much faster.

Kida continues to give advices to her comrades, although now it is more like trying to cheer up before the final spurt.
Anibal: you get +2 on next attack roll vs green (again! so you'll have this bonus two rounds in a row)
Aiden: you get +2 on next attack roll vs yellow

Apparently in pain, Anibal musters what's left of the strength in his limbs and retreats from the melee. He heads for the northern wall, next to Hakimo, and almost collapses under the statues feet. If the wall was not there, he'd surely be on the ground now. Leaning against the wall with his elbow, he starts rummaging through his belt pouch with one hand, holding the other one against his neck wound.
He raises his eyes briefly, giving the pathfinders an apologetic look.
Hakimo moves up to attack the warlord, but his armor defects the blow, just (AC16). Anibal takes the path of wisdom and withdraws from the fearsom warrior in bronze., while Zaamir and Kida continue to offer advice and support (and healing).
There is a bookcase between Hakimo and the warlord by the way, that would give cover, +4 to AC
The warlord advances on Zaamir and strikes out with the fearsom bloody scimitar.
attack:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 attack:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 damage:2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 4) + 4 = 11
Which continues to wreck havok amongst the pathfinders.
a skeletal Qadiran warlord (with some armor) (green) (skeleton) and
a Bronze Legionnaire (yellow)(zombie)
Having made your knowledge checks earlier, I'll remind you that zombies are staggered, and as such can only take a move or a standard action. There are some pretty simple tactics you can use to fight the bronze legionnaire without a lot of risk...

At the same time as Zaamir falls unconscious, Kida vanished into thin air, having to throw a disdainful look at Anibal before.

Aiden spots the deadly blow at the last second and narrow twists to the side to avoid the sword. "Then hurry up with it! I've been holding this fiend off waiting for you!" He slices at the Legionnaire again, this time at the arm joint.
Hakimo finishes off the warlord of old with a single powerful strike
After a moment of panic, Aiden realises the blow was powerful but didn't get through his armor. His own strike back is much better and dents the figure badly. Anibal drinks a potion.
Was that a cure light wounds? If so it would be d8+1 not d6+1

Zaamir smiles while he lies unconscious. Grumbling over him reminds him of mom and the stream into the lake. Perhaps due to this his bleeding magically stops.
