The vampire spawn monks see the little sprite and their eyes light up with evil hunger! They hop off their coffins and give chase out the outflow pipe...
Red glowing eyes can be seen in the darkness of the outflow pipe...
An evil hiss comes from within...

The combat finally joined, Altin is glad to be acting rather than thinking and talking. He goes into a deep focus, and draws and fires two silvered arrows in quick succession at the nearest enemy.

The lead vampire spawn drops and transforms into dark mist!
As Altin fires, Wulfgar moves forward with Giovanna, Lifting his weighted spear two handed He bellows, "SoH qabna'Daj jIH." He then begins to rage, his appearance changing, the bright light from a halo illuminating the sewage tunnel. his skin appears like pewter and his eyes glow white. He swings the silver weighted ball at the first undead.

Oh no... It has control of me!
At the postern gate of the monastery, Achiko invisibly scales the wall beside the gatehouse like a spider, briefly appearing at the top behind a sentry’s back before vanishing again and dropping down silently into the courtyard...
Slipping like a shadow into the gatehouse, she tosses a pair of jingle bells into a shadow in the courtyard, drawing the gatehouse guards away from their post to investigate the distraction. She uses the winch to raise the postern gate, allowing half the gladiators and harem girls to rush out of the shadows and into the courtyard!
At the anterior gate, O’Reilly scurries up the wall near the front gatehouse, slipping unseen past another sentry before sliding down the inside wall into the courtyard, creeping up on the bored gatehouse guards, and throwing the lever that quickly raises the front portcullis, allowing the other half of the gladiators and harem girls to storm through the front gate!
The thralls posted on the outer battlements raise an alarm, sounding a gong that can be heard reverberating throughput Safi, including where the Desert Jackals are fighting the vampire spawns at the outflow pipe!
*GGGOOOOOONNNNGGGG!!! GGGOOOOOONNNNGGGG!!! GGGOOOOONNNNGGGG!!!*
Hearing the reverberating gongs, Altin gives a grim smile. Well done, friends! You've made our job all the easier. Hopefully none of you pay with your lives for it.
After making himself seeable Load P, by becoming light itself he flies up over the heads of those fighting.
"Bit dark in here, lets have a little more light shall we."
And the whole space is full of daylight.
"That's better we can see each other now"
Altin draws another two silver arrows, and fires at the nearest vampire thrall. He doesn't notice that Volreg has started acting strangely...
"Fight, Jackals! We must take them down quickly!"

Mwikali’s scorching ray burns the fourth spawn badly! It shrieks in pain!
AAAIIIIEEE!!!
The three spawn still in the tunnel recognize the Jackals as superior foes and retreat back up the tunnel to warn their fellows in the Catacombs!
Mwikali casts the protective magics from the scrolls and readies her wands. ON top of that she readies her spells in her mind seeking to ready some decent firepower against them.
Altin moves up the pipe right behind Wulfgar, ready to fire his bow at the first enemy that shows its face.
The Jackals advance into the 5-foot-diameter outflow pipe single file, Lord Perpireen lighting the watery path...
Lying on the floor where it was apparently dropped by one of the fallen vampire spawn is a coil of rope that seems to be braided from long golden, Rapunzel-like locks of hair...
The coil of rope suddenly hisses like a snake! HIIIISSSS!!! One end rears up like a cobra and sways back and forth...
Ich scherze! Ich bin keine Schlange, sondern ein Seil, Rapunzels Weave ist mein Name, verwickelte Idioten ist mein Spiel!
In the Catacombs beneath the monastery, the routed vampire spawns alert the six meditating in their coffins...
In Arabic: To arms, brethren! The infidels are upon us!
The six spawn throw off the lids of their coffins and spring out, ready to defend their graves!

I jest! I’m no snake, but a rope, Rapunzel’s Weave’s my name, and entangling idiots is my game!
Load P chuckles with glee
"A tangled rhyming game you say, and pour me being a fey, just can't turn away, so lets dear rope, let us play!"
And with that, he skips into range of the on wings of light.
And with mage hand tuch its head around like a skipping rope.
Ha! That is very witty, Weave! You wangvto help us with our mission? Might come in handy...
