Though Harakhty had become used to many of the features of civilization, loud explosions weren't something with which he was at ease. As the cannonball ripped through the building, he reflexively hopped to the side, covering his eyes with his hands, nearly bashing himself in the head with his buckler. Taking them away, he saw Skaar standing across the blast hole. Maybe his motives are better than I thought.
They entered the hallway. The greenskin's assessment was accurate; there was really no way to tell where anyone was, let alone their target. As Skaar went through the process of breaching the rooms, Harakhty used his eyes and ears.
Second
Cyna followed Skaar through the building trying not to think of the odds of any of them being hit by a cannon ball. "We need to get out of here soon before any of us end up a permanent part of the building."
You open the door to a bedroom. You see a woman laying on lavender satin sheets, her clothing torn off and discarded on the floor. A thin cut along her neck mars her attractive skin, the blood on her dried long ago. A chair occupied by an emaciated man sits in the corner facing the bed. He has been tied to the chair with a length of rope and his eyelids have been removed. It looks as if he died from starvation.
There is nothing else of note in here, the closet and chest have been gone through already.
K17:
Skaar thrusts a shoulder into the locked door and is immediately assaulted by a skeletal-looking man. He futilely pounds his fists against the orc's chest before collapsing in a heap. Spittle runs down the man's crusty beard. He murmurs unintelligible things about rats and cultists.
Looking in the room Cyna couldn't help but think the worst. "They made him watch...?" she turns away and tries to focus on the sickly man on the ground pushing the disturbing images from her mind.

Dead, maimed, starved, driven crazy ... this nation was one of malice and pain. Cyna rushed in to deal with the gibbering man, but Harakhty was almost looking through the situation with a second set of eyes. How did a place like this even sustain itself?
Cyna looks over the man and tries to help him up, but, as she puts her hands on him, he goes limp. Checking for a pulse, she finds none. He looks almost serene though there are drying tears upon his thin face.
I12:
Skaar opens the door to another bedroom, this one occupied by two smaller beds with blue sheets. There are toys scattered along the floor, but there is no one in here.
K12:
Skaar breaks in the last door in this hallway and finds himself face to face with a snarling wolf. Behind the wolf, stands another cultist. Unlike the others you have encountered, this one has a more seasoned look about him.
Hearing the wolf snarl, Drago raised his crossbow, but couldn't get a clear shot from where he stood. So he squeezed past his comrades to opposing door, (I 12), and took a shot at the cultist.
Aurelea surges forward alongside Skaar, drawing upon the magic within herself she reaches out to her sword, once again feeling that almost aware twinge as the blade drew in power.
Swift action toenhance sword to +1
She strikes, blade darting forward viciously at the wolf.

Harakhty wondered at the presence of the wolf. Almost certainly tamed, hopefully they would not need to put it down...
The cultist was another story, however. Immediately when the opportunity presented itself, the Vanara fired.
Bolt:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8Damage:1d4 ⇒ 3
His shot going stray, however, Harakhty set about reloading his bow. These confined quarters would not be kind fo them if the cultists came about in any significant number...
Skaar eyes go wide as the cultist levels the crossbow, but the muscle-bound orc proves too slow as yet another crossbow bolt slams into the meat of his shoulder. With a grunt of pain, the big greenskin narrows his gaze on the offending cultist before focuses on the beast before him again.
With his good arm, he throws another massive punch at the wolf savaging Cyna.
"You'd think that a death cult would be hard-pressed to expand its membership ...but I suppose most would rather kill than be killed ...that is, after all, what we're doing, isn't that right, Professor? Take THAT, evil douchesipper!"
Stephen shoots his trusty crossbow at the cultist. attack:1d20 ⇒ 17damage:1d10 ⇒ 1

Worry gripping him like a plague with the bloodshed all around him, Harakhty began to panic. Two of their count were on the floor, Skaar not looking far from it himself.
I believe I have initiative over the cultist either way in this round as my readied action never took effect last time.
Assuming Skaar puts the cultist into a grapple:
Harakhty steps forward and shoots his bolt at point-blank range into the man, hoping to quell his aggression with pain before more came to them. After firing, he reloads.
Step to K13 Bolt:1d20 ⇒ 1Damage:1d4 ⇒ 4
If Skaar fails but is still conscious:
"Skaar, get out of there!"That damned doorway isn't doing us any favors. Between Stephan and him, Harakhty hoped they could use their quivers to riddle their opponent full of quarrels.
Readied action as before (use rolls from the spoiler above) with a step back to I15
If Skaar is felled:
Even the mighty fall against this wickedness. It would take all of his power to stop this madman. Under pressure, his resolve somehow seemed strengthened, and Harakhty's inner stability shone with his clarity of action. He said a prayer to his god and awaited the inevitable assault.
"Stop this madness!" He shouted to the cultist in a last, futile plea.
Activate judgement: Protection - +1 AC (Sacred) Cast Shield of Faith on self - +2 AC (deflection) AC is now 22.
Not seeing a whole lot of options, Drago drops his crossbow, pulls a scroll from his case and rushes through the doorway to get on the other side of the cultist.
Pull Scroll of Inflict Light Wounds - Move action
Then move to M11 pushing open the other door in the process - Standard Action used for movement.
He shoves the unconscious orc to the ground. "I've already beaten three of you. And, from the looks of it, the strongest among you. Lay down your arms and this won't have to go any further. Your energy is spent. This is your last chance, else I will kill you."
