Cabaguil pours everything he can into keeping Kelvin on his feet. while Dakapos continues to his assault. His elven speed slashing faster and faster.
The magical bastard sword breaks through the statue's arm as the appendage crumbles into a stump. His strikes through the statue off balance.
the statue stays laser focused on Kelvin. The stone stump lumbering for the dwarf. Kelvin shifts in blocks most of the first strike, himself and his shield
The group forms a protective shield around the dwarf, saving his life.

He also moves to the other side, careful to avoid reach (•>).
Cuthberwyn can't bear to watch as Kelvin is pummeled some more.
He continues the story to encourage his companions , then tries the same gambit he used previously, relying on a flash of future insight to try and make the statue prone again.
Action 1: Strike
Action 2: Strike
Action 3: Strike
Kelvin coughs up more blood, his struggle to survive real as the statue continues to unerringly strike him. He lets out a groan, that turns into a chuckle, that becomes a gurgling laugh. "Hah.. Hahaha... HAHAHA!"
That doesn't stop his continued attempts to break the statue. He thrusts with his spear and follows up with the gauntlet.
Round 5

"Hey! Pick on me! I'm tougher than he is!!" Raspar continues his assault. He fights back with flank.

Cuthberwyn gets enough leverage again and brings the statue back down to the ground where Kelvin thrusts his spear down into it's face. Cabaguil heals the maddened dwarf's injury as he rebounds back once more. Raspar is even able to get in a few nicks while the statue is down.

Ðakaþos crushes his sword into the clay golem over and over again. It begins to stand up and he strikes out with one more final overhead chop. The sword splits across the stone as the golem crumbles in place, unmoving once more.

Kelvin slumps to the ground, groaning and still in very obvious pain. Sitting beside the broken remains of the statue, he picks through the rubble until he finds a suitable piece of clay. It has a jagged edge but fits easily in the palm of his hand. "The easier I'll remember the pain you caused, you stony bastard."
To the group he says, "Well now, that was fun. Let's maybe not do that again so soon, right? And... thanks." With a grin on his face he looks at Raspar specifically and adds, "Though there's no way you're tougher than I am. Truly, you are a Desnan Dreamer."
"There is no shame dwarf-brother. You're alive and talking after a beating that would have felled a titan!"
Dak gives a smile, his completely unbloodied form a bit incongruous with the situation. "Let us stop for a bit. IF this presages things to come, we need to be at our best."
Raspar moves over to look in Kelvin's eyes, amazed that the beating the old dwarf had taken. "Kelvin? Are you okay? Look at me...how many fingers?" Raspar holds up on finger...and then boops Kelvin on the nose with it.
Raspar smiles wide that his friend is still alive and his face is only mostly mashed and broken.
”That wound still looks a little nasty, let me touch it up a bit.” Assuming Raspar’s healing worked, and only a little injury remains, Cabaguil will use his wand of heal on Kelvin.
”That was something huh? Nasty statue that. Are we ready to proceed, or do you want to tidy up there Raspar?” Cabaguil jokes, but it’s also a serious question. He know how much Raspar likes things to be tidy.

With Raspar's booping and Cabaguil's additional healing Kelvin feels much better. He feels the curse lift from him as the wounds no linger fester.

Raspar smiles as Kelvin seems to be better, then seems to remember where they are and how little time there is for joy or companionship.
"Let's go this way," Raspar says as he moves to the south door, readying to open it when others are ready.

As everyone gathers Raspar opens the door. Several luxurious woven mats and blankets lie in heaps along the walls of this long chamber. It seems you have made plenty of noise during the clay golems attack as the dormitory full of cultists hastily donned their equipment. Four boggards and two more charau-ka butchers stand ready to go join the defense.

"Raspar be careful!" Dak steps in and brings his bastard sword around in tandem with his steps. He swipes twice with serious focus:

Raspar's deliberations fall on deaf ears as these cultists seem far more devout than the sickened ones working the gold mines. Ðakaþos and Dori work a few negotiations of their own. The poor boggard doesn't stand much of a chance as an axe cleaves into it's back followed by a bastard sword across it's neck.
Seeing one of their own fall the Charau-ka Butcher's screama nd beat their chests as they fly into a frenzy. Leaping through the air they surround Dori as a pair of tridents, stab at him from two different angles.
+ 1d4 Persistent Bleed Damage at the end of your turns
One of the tridents catches Dori as the prong stabs through his bicep. Yanking the weapon free he begins to bleed quite profusely. The boggards all leap into positions to try and split your group into two teams and cut you off to quickly finish the dwarf off.

"RAARRRRR!" Kelvin says, once again letting his fury take over him. He moves opposite Raspar and stabs at the boggard with Ogogoro's Pride
Cuthberwyn begins a tale of the fall of the charu-ka, listing each that the party has felled in succession (Dirge of Doom cantrip, 30' emanation, foes in the area are Frightened 1 and cannot reduce their Frightened value below 1 while in the area), then moves to protect Cabaguil a bit, drawing his whip along the way.

Kelvin stabs Ogogoro's Pride into the monkey as a dirge of doom shakes through their ranks. A bit more power goes into Cabaguil's flames as the boggard swampseer combusts into flames.
Raspar twirls his starknife into the flaming boggard as he continues to negotiate. Ðakaþos spills boggard guts all over the floor as he splits another open with his blade. Dori works in conjuction with Kelvin as he puts a little more hurt down on the wounded Butcher.
Cabaguil is right, the group has bested these foes before but never in this amount. the butchers fight back to take the dwarf down.

Dori isn't able to defend against all of the tridents as more and more injuries overcome his defenses.
The pair of boggard swampseers wriggle their mouths as they spit bile at Kelvin and Raspar.
The acid bile spits and sizzles against the walls behind the pair.

Cuthberwyn's tale will not be denied; these charu-ka must learn what fate befalls those who stand before this crew. , and he punctuates it with a flourish to let it hang in the air!
Cuth then focuses on Green, taking a glimpse into the future to help his next blow strike true.
With his eyes and blade now free to join the others, he pushes to the line, standing beside Dori. Over the dwarf's shoulder he encourages him, though without the power of Cuth's performance, "Hold true my friend and see this done!"

With a dim view of the battlefield, Cabaguil must make his way into the room carefully (•>). Positioning himself behind Raspar, he again Inspires Courage . ”Watch out for the pointy bits, and hit them in the soft bits, that’s the way to go!” he calls out helpfully.
Having little time left to do anything productive he’ll merely take stock of the battlefield and measure his next action.

Kelvin and Dori give the Charau-ka the old one two, striking from both sides at the same time.
Cuthberwyn's whip wraps around the boggards neck. he yanks down, smashing the creature's face right into the ground.
The boggard does not get back up, blood pooling underneath its head. Cabaguil takes stock of their situation as the group makes their way inch by inch.
Raspar tosses his starknife through the air. It twirls past Kelvin and stabs into the charau-ka's chest killing it. Raspar doesn't need anymore dwarf's bleeding for him.
Ðakaþos pushes back on the charau-ka, stabbing deep into it's ribs. The monkey screeches inches from his face. The hot breath and spittle coats his skin.
Shaken, scared and cornered the charau-ka fights with the little strength it has left. The trident strips past his cheek, nearly taking his eye out before the shaft taps into his groin.
+ 1d6 Persistent Acid
The boggard spits more acid at Kelvin. He tries to block his face as it splashes all over his forearm. Sizzling on his skin.

Cuthberwyn watches as the tripped boggard snaps its neck and turns his attention on the foe not surrounded by his friends. A half-dozen scintillating jets of force streak out of his splayed hand and unerringly strike Blue.

Kelvin stabs into the Charau-ka as Cuthberwyn's missiles smash through several ribs. Cabaguil's flames putter out in his hand. Raspar slits it's tendons as the butcher falls to its knees. Ðakaþos finishes off the monkey before moving into the boggards threatened zone. His blade finds a safe space into its chest as well.

Hoping they have the time, Cabaguil goes to work on Ðakaþos and Dori, breaking out his healing tools and taking 10 minutes if he can.

A little healed and ready Raspar opens the eastern door. Smoked meat and roasted fish hang on hooks embedded in the walls, while clay jars on the floor are packed full of yams in various stages of fermentation. A heavy metal cooking grate covers a glowing pit in the floor.
A nearly skeletal frame of a dog paces the length of the room irritably. Flesh the color of burning pitch, teeth as sharp as any fiend's pitchfork, and a shroud of ever-burning hell re are all trademark features. Upon seeing you it let's out a low growl but doesn't immediately attack.
Raspar (102/102; Steel Shield)
Ðakaþos (91/111)
Dori (84/122; (Shield Hardness 8, HP 34/36, BT 18); Resist Fire 4, Slashing 2)
Kelvin (105/114; Resist Fire 3)
Cuthberwyn (104/104)
Cabaguil (64/64; Resist Fire 5)
Cabaguil takes a closer look at the 'dog'.
"This guy doesn't look friendly, everyone be on your guard."
Look at them, though, Cuthberwyn says. All skin and bones. Maybe it's just hungry...?
The gnome fishes some meat from his pack as Cabaguil studies it.

"Oh nice doggie! We're going to try feed you a lot of food so we don't have to fight, okay?" Raspar says, trying to be nice, but still having his shield raised.
"It would please me greatly to not have to euthanize a dog, ever. I don't see this happening. That's no normal dog. Still..." Dak turns to the canine.
"Sulfur hound, I have no desire to engage in yet another mortal combat. You didn't pounce, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Quit this place and leave us be or I'll cut your head from your shoulders."

Cabaguil quickly recognizes this large beast as a Nessian Warhound. Believed to be bred by the Prince of Darkness himself within vast kennels in the infernal realm of Nessus, Nessian warhounds are the favored guards and hunting hounds of powerful fiends and, rarely, those mortals who worship them and have earned their favor. Understanding only infernal the dog cocks it's head in a confused manner at Ðakaþos. Cabaguil knows these hounds can breath flames all around them.
As Ðakaþos portrays himself with a fair bit of authority, the Nessian warhound ceases its pacing and seems to stand down momentarily. Flames flicker across it's skin as the warhound sits down, looking towards the open door.
Cuthberwyn follows the hound's line of sight. It...it appears to want to escape...?
Cuth appears uncertain, but asks, Should we let it? I don't have a desire to kill anything that only wants to escape.
