Ginger continues her assault on the construct. She hits and grapples the glass creature.
Not-Trixie attempts to shed the hiding caster's veil of invisibility. The caster is revealed!
Rock lets loose a barrage at the new revealed caster. The nimble near elven looking man is able to dodge some of he damage.
Ginger bits more, causing more damage.
Pooka, ignoring the momentarily unseen assailant, dives back into the fray at the damaged glass construct. Two of his attacks strike home, shattering the thing into countless glass shards.
Turathal fires off a cloud of magical dust to surround the pasky hidden caster. He manages to blind the half elf, he throws hsi hands to his eyes to try and clear the dust.
Arklore enters the room and lets loose a magical shout! The crystal creature appears immune to the magic, but the caster is caught in the blast. He manages to resist the more damning effects.
Lily begins to summon a bear from the ether.
As the rock flies out of the room, he sees a familiar figure. Hats the otyugh is running as fast as his stubby legs will carry him. The otyugh runs past the Rock and into the room! He wiggles his tentacles in a threatening manner,, seemingly ready to take on the remaining golem.
The standing golem breaks free of Ginger's grapple.
The caster rubs at his eyes and shakes his head but not clear his vision.

The blinded caster who scorched him looks like easy pickens, so Pooka turns his attention after shattering the first glass golem to the now revealed threat. "Luna, Charge!" he shouts. His eager mount complies, launching her powerful body through the air. Pooka lowers his lance and tries to run the caster through in one blow.

Halfling and dog streak past the exposed caster to the opposite corner of the room.
Ginger's eyes light up at the direction by the Rock. She continues her attack on the glass beastie.

The poor caster doesn't stand a chance against Pooka's loyal, very good dog. With a snarl and a stream of slobber trailing behind her, Luna guides her master center mass to the elven looking creature, and continues through his personal space, leading with her shoulder. As she slams into him, she snaps out with her powerful jaws.

The Rock heals his wounds as his pet Dino presses the attack. Ginger manages to get a bite in but cannot hang on.
Pooka, ignoring the glittering mist surrounding the caster, spurs Luna into a charge. He hits him squarely, obliterating the blinded half elf's right shoulder. He falls, badly wounded, and raises his hands in a gesture of mercy.
Lilly's bear and ally attack the construct. They land a few blows, but they appear to cause hardly any damage.

Hats
Hats! Watch out! There's only the most amazing hat behind you - and it's getting away! A triple-decker of a top hat floats tantalizingly in the doorway, garish red and blue ribbons adorning its crowns and a single yellow rose tucked into the top band. It pauses a moment before making its way back down the hallway slowly.
The mage looks up feebly to Pooka.
"I...I cannot. I am not its master. No...no mater. Your band will certainly best it. I yield, fair knight." The caster holds up his hands and makes no further gestures.
The golem fights on!

Well they say Aroden was as good with a sword as he was with spells...guess its time to see if I can live up to my Lord's reputation!
I don't cast the spell and instead I move forward to the last golem standing and lash out at it with my keen long sword.
Feeling pretty good I am gong to make contact at least.
Not-Trixie does her best to protect Hats.
Turathal keeps a watchful eye on the downed mage, ready to strike at any sign of deception.
Arklore holds his spell and instead advances on the standing golem. The thing tries to slam Arklore as he closes for the strike! The sharp edges of the golem's arm connects, tearing a rend in Arklore's flesh. The wound bleeds profusely. Ark's blow does land, but the golem's tough glass hide absorbs much of the damage.
The golem, surrounded by enemies, swings at one randomly. It swings at the dino. It actually hits once, opening a bleeding wound.
Hats tries to swing a tentacle at the golem. His tentacle bounces off the golem harmlessly.
"You no take my hats!!!!!"

Ginger bares her teeth as the glass creature and attacks back.
Ginger retaliates and clamps down on the golem. Her massive jaw tearing through impossibly touch magical glass like its butter. Her bite rends off an arm and the thing crumbles into thousands of glass shards.
As the golem falls, Hats jumps excitedly from one trunk leg to the other, waving his hatted tentacles excitedly. As hats waves the hat with the nemes attached, one of the paintings on the wall begins to glow. In near perfect unison, the nemes begings to glow with it. A palpable energy fills the room.
"Oohhhh. I feel funny. Not so good. AHHH..."
As Hats tries to describe what is happening, he begins to shake and in a flash of energy, Hats is not linger there. As the agents wipe there eyes to see, they look down to where the otyugh had just been a moment ago and see just the nemes lying there.
With each of the objects retrieved, the agents return to Absalom and the Blakros Museum by travelling to the Glare—the light at the center of Shadow Absalom that returns extraplanar visitors to their location immediately prior to entering the Shadow Plane. Upom arrival, to the museum, they find Hamaria Blakros eager to take the items back and hear their story.
Hamaria shows obvious concern when she hears news of Sarnia Blakros and the Onyx Alliance’s recent change in leadership. The Blakros matriarch is clearly stunned by the news that some of the sacrificed daughters may still be alive, let alone the implications of Sarnia’s newly fetchling-like appearance. For now, Hamaria asks that the agents keep this information to themselves and their leaders in the Society.
Nigel Aldain takes custody of the objects. The elven curator’s mood is one of humbled dejection andhe takes the objects without a word. The curator thanks the agents for their recent actions and indicates that Pathfinders of their skill are always welcome within the museum.
Mission accomplished, the agents return to the Grand Lodge and report to Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin. Without interrupting, Valsin takes in the agents' report and promises to deliver it back to the Decemvirate member who first tasked the agents with this mission. Ambrus does take a moment to ponder the gravity of Sarnia Blakros’s recent coup within the Onyx Alliance and whether or not her claim to the Blakros family fortune has any true validity. Though unwilling to pass judgment one way or another, Valsin inquires on the agents’ opinions about whether
or not the Society should involve itself in the growing conflict between the Blakros family and the Onyx Alliance.

Turathal helps Nigel carry the items back into the museum, using the opportunity to offer a kind word of encouragement. Then he hands him a business card. "I'm certain my organization could use a talented archivist and curator such as yourself."
At Valsin's words, Turathal says, "It may not be for us to decide who is in the right, but history has shown that when it comes to the Blackros Museum, the safety and well being of Absolom and her citizens is at stake. We must monitor the situation and be prepared for whatever mayhem may come...and i may have found just the man to help us keep an eye on things."
