Andor sees the Minotaur and snarls.
”Bad choice to attack us. You’re done!“
He attacks!

With a gleeful smile, Brallenera rushes to the attack
Guided Attack:1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 10 + 1 = 24
dmg:1d10 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Awww...Finally some fun! I call dibs on his horns!
Overwhelmed, the minotaur falls to the sustained assault of the Pathfinders.
As it falls, a young man with a hard, sneering face rounds the corner, weapon in hand. The young man is taken aback to see the beast fall and stands with his blade ready before him.

Hearing the death throes of the minotaur, Zadim moves forward, blade still in hand. Moving through the doorway, he pauses over the body of the fallen creature upon seeing the others present. Move action
"Unless you wish to suffer the fate of this battered bovine, I'd steer clear of any further attacks. Drop your weapons." declares the slayer as he bullishly brandishes his blade. "I'd hate for you to make the same mis-steak that he did."
Though his eyes stare sternly, Zadim cannot restrain himself from bearing a small grin. As he does so, he considers the newly-revealed swordsman.
Studied target as Swift Action
Readied action if any armed foe approaches within five feet of Zadim:
The slayer attacks swiftly.
Melee (+1 kukri):1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 Damage:1d4 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 Melee attack at 28 and Damage at 10 if target is the swordsman Zadim studied.

Brallenera's axe smashes the slaver in the face and he falls to the floor in a crumpled heap.
Kermit is about to shoot the downed slaver and instead turns his arrows on the other thug. His body is pierced and he stands gasping, barely daring to move.
The remaining thug turns to run, sees Zadim blocking his way and falls on his knees, begging for mercy, "Please don't kill me. please, please, please!"
The gnome cuts and runs withdraw action but is knocked down by Nanny's spell.
Xim's throw, however, goes wide and splashes the two slavers, dropping the last one.

All of the Pathfinders enemies are dead, but Andor is still frozen in place.
With Noral leaving, Andor's paralysation will be permanent. We'll say you collect him at the end, unless you TPK and then maybe the Society buy him out of slavery. There will be a closet soon that you can hide him in.

Well, that is most unfortunate. Although we were efficient eliminating their resistance, I hope we did not need to gain any intelligence from them. If only they had surrendered like we asked.
Roderick will move forward to get a better look around the corner.

Wait? Yes, if they are still alive, let us see what they have to say. Roderick says as he comes back from peering around the corner for more of the pesky slavers.

Won't bother to roll a Coup de grace
Brallenera's axe cut the minotaurs throat, spreading his blood on her body
Awww, seems to me the gods have judged and spoken.

"The wounds that we inflicted were quite greivous, Blessed Lady. If these villains are to have strength enough to speak, you will likely need to impart more divine magics upon them." Zadim suggests to Kyra. "Though, they do not deserve such grace "
"Your words hold truth, on their lack of deserving. Keeping and torturing people and still engaging hostilities when offered the chance to step down."
"Even so, if they do hold information which could prove significant to our mission, i should at least try. If they still refuse to speak, or are still as hostile, then they have proven themselves innately vile enough."
"At which point their fate lies in the Grim Lady's hands."

"I am honored to provide you with counsel, as long as you would have me." Zadim replies. As well as anything else that you may desire, My Beloved, Zadim quietly thinks to himself.

So now what path does our quest lead? Can any intelligence be gleaned from these fallen hooligans? Roderick looks around, still expecting more to jump out at any second.

I would recommend binding them and then applying a curative if possible. Roderick will dig out some rope.
Oops...
After searching through his haversack and finding just about one of everything else, rope is not one of them.
Well, that is embarrassing. I seem to have left my rope back at the shop. If one of the others can spare some, I will tape the gnome with a wand and see what wealth of knowledge he is willing to share. Otherwise, we can just keep moving. I care not.
The prisoners are tied up and placed in comfortable positions where they should be able to breathe and speak easily. Water is prepared so that they will be able to talk without growing parched.
They are all unconscious.
A door and a tunnel are unexplored ahead of you.
That moment when we all become vividly aware that PF is a game of resource management. Is what they might know worth a spell? An alchemical item? Time?

"To be forrewarned is to be forearmed. And I do believe our primary objective our foray here was to uncover information about our quary. Therefore...". Zadim pauses midsentence to retrieve his wand of cure light wounds and offers it to Kyra. "If you would do us the honors, Dear Sunrise of the Dawnflower?"
Assuming Kyra takes and uses the wand on a prisoner...
Despite the deep olive tones of the slayer's skin, he is almost seen to blush as his hand brushes against that of the cleric during the exchange.
As the prisoner comes to, Zadim counsels, "You are presently alive only by the mercy of the Holy Flame, yet the fire of the goddess consumes the unrepentant who refuse her grace and offer of redemption. Thus, you will have but one opportunity to tell us all we wish to know."
"Why did you attack us? By whom are you employed?" he asks, "And what do you know of a woman with a distinctive tattoo?"
"Kyra will do, Zadim." , and she takes the wand from Zadim with a polite nod.
Perception?:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 "Are you okay yourself? You look a little feverish.", is a short response before she activates the wand to tap each prisoner once.
When Zadim starts questioning them, Kyra does a quick general checkup on the others, to see if they look red and feverish.
