Vailis smiles at the recovering cleric "Welcome back princess of fire. It seems you did not make good friendship with the old mummified ladies"
The half-elf points to the door going east "There seems to be a door here, east of Kyra. It seems the only way forward"

Ingrge breathes a sigh of relief. ”Glad to have you back with us, Kyra...you gave us quite a scare...now let’s finish this and then get Kyra to someone who can rid her of this affliction...”
Ingrge taps himself with the wand several times to get back up to snuff...

Ugh...any more of this and I just might stay at the abbey...a lot safer...thanks... Kyra says as she slowly gets to her feet, knowing she has little time to figure out how to cure herself.
"You're still with us at least. I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get to use this flaming falchion on the mummies. From now on, lets have Ingrge and I lead."

Excuse me, GM, I overlooked the spoiler on first read...I’m getting old...
Ingrge hesitates before moving down the eastern passage. ”Standby...there appears to be a secret door to the north, behind the sarcophagus...we should check it out before we press on...”
Ingrge will check out the secret door in his normal fashion...
Vailis follows Ingrge lead and points the elementals to move ahead and eat any traps that may lay for the group to trigger "There. Follow the corridor. Ensure there are no traps" he commands in Ignan.
Eight stone columns support the 30-foot-high vaulted ceiling in this massive square chamber. Between them lies a sunken floor filled with treasure encompassing several piles of coins, ornate chests, art and trade goods, arms and armor, and even a gilded chariot. To the south stands a set of bronze double doors engraved with the image of a single eye. These doors stand open, but a shimmering field of faint blue light stands between them. In the chamber beyond, you can see a strange black vault in which a mysterious and horrific ritual is underway.
As the elementals enter the room, the spirits of the concubines appear before the party. Gesturing into the room, they speak one name in righteous fury. "Zuberi!" Then they discorporate, swirling about the party and vanishing into their respective items.

Jorgen is up! Treasure covered squares are difficult terrain.
At the sight of the elementals, the guardians begin to move forward, growing in size until equal to the two headed creature before the door. Falchions raised, the figure wait for the attack of the Pathfinders.

Vailis moves forward to have a better sight of what is going on, and takes cover behind the column. The half-elf holds high the staff and activates its power "Meskhenet, protect me from these creatures foul draining!"
Then gives orders to the elementals in Ignean "Surround that big one in the center, then fight Zubari's guards!"
One after one, the elementals rush into the room, the red one being the first trying to gain the monster's back.
Red slam+IC:1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 2 = 271d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7
The guardian, who appears to Vailis' eyes to be human, strikes at the approaching elementals, landing a solid blow to the first to approach. The elementals quickly set to work burning his stony flesh.

Adeah recognizes the main guardian as an ettin, a giant with two minds in the same body. Something about the focus of the two heads seems off, however.

Added remaining damages from last fight.
Edit: Updated to reflect Kyra's channel. Bless is not in effect.
The still living guardians also enlarge and begin to swing upon elementals, finding the targets hard to land hits upon even as the last provokes, moving in to burn the nearest guard.
The ettin moves to threaten the nearest elementals, narrowly missing with a heavy flail attack. The last guardian stalks around the room, enlarging to deal a heavy blade onto Vailis.

Jorgen moves towards the ettin, somersaulting past Ingrge and under the club of the cretinous ettin. Jorgen then slashes at the creature's knees with his flaming blade.
Vailis howls in pain as he discovers he got too close to the enemy.
HP 62/84
The elementals close up with the giant guards and attack with their fiery hands.

Vailis steps back and produces a small shovel figurine from his pouch casting create pit on the feet of the ettin and yellow giant "Where are the bodies of the old heroes?" The coins start to fall and menace for the both guards to fall there too.
Ref DC 20

The guardian threatening Vailis swipes at the yellow-flamed elemental, extinguishing it with a powerful blow of his falchion. The red flamed elemental strikes and sets the guardian on fire. The already burning enemy trades blows with the blue flamed elemental, before Vailis' pit catches the yellow sashed guard, the large man tumbling down. The ettin looks at Vailis with bemusement. "Heroes? What heroes?"

Ingrge puts two arrows in the nearest guards eyes, toppling the man over, before lancing one directly into the remaining guards chest. The fire licking at his body causes him to pitch over, laying prone with blood boiling from the heat. Below, in the pit the guardian stands and begins climbing back up the walls. The ettin reaches out, smashing the nearest elemental to nothing, before shifting to reach the last, bludgeoning it to nearly guttering before finishing it off as it moves in to attack.

Party is up! The green elemental will need to decide if it is standing by the pit or moving around to attack. Edit: Scratch that, difficult terrain makes it an AoO either way.
I think the giant takes falling damage on the pit (30 feet fall):3d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) = 11
"That thing is very dangerous. We better finish it from afar" says Vailis while casting haste on the party.
Everyone: +1 to hit, +1 to AC and Ref, +30' movement, and +1 attack when full attacking
Meanwhile, Meskhenet fast heals the half-elves wounds.

The remaining elemental goes after the ettin, although more probably to his death.
Red: slam+IC vs ettin:1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 2 = 171d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7
I also see the Blue elemental in the status although not in the map. He will move to attack the ettin if still alive Blue: slam+IC vs ettin:1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 2 = 131d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 2 = 11
Note the Augment Summoning feat gives the elementals slightly higher HP 38 AC 17 TAC 14
Jorgen darts towards the ettin at the far end of the room; the haste spell giving him the extra speed to reach the giant. As he approaches within the creature's reach, Jorgen attempts to slide under the creature's reach again before delivering a slashing blow to the two-headed creature's knees.
I don't think Ettins can be flanked, but add a +2 to that attack roll if they can.
Dang...I was hoping to get a crit with this blade but I'm guessing the ettin's going to be shot into swiss cheese before that can happen. Maintaining inspire courage as usual.
Before Ingrge can even take his hasted shot, his arrows and Adeah's bullet cause the ettin to fall. A long, tortured scream sounds through the room as a translucent figure rises out of the fallen ettin, Osiriani features contorted in pain, as it flies south, smashing through the shimmering field across the doorway.

What the...that thing was possessed? Could that be Zuberi? We must follow... Kyra urges as she moves to chase after him. She summons a glowing weapon made of holy light to attack the spirit.
move action, 50 foot due to haste, standard cast spiritual weapon and attack with it. unsure if inspire courage applies here because i'm further away...so not adding it. pretty sure haste applies...waiting to activate the spiritual ability until everyone is close,,,
As the remaining guard continues to climb up the pit, then fall back down to the bottom from the pain of the fire, beyond the shimmering doorway the party can see a large chamber carved from black basalt and white marble. On the far side of the chamber, behind a wall of iron bars, sits a wizened old man in front of three long, human-shaped bundles, holding a glowing green gem aloft with his eyes closed. In front of him is a mage, chanting and casting handfuls of dust into the air while performing an intricate ritual.
The spirit that inhabited the ettin swirls around the body of the ancient, wizened man. With a silent scream it soars high through this arched chamber before diving back into the man’s toothless maw. In an instant, his body begins to wither, appearing to age even further, if that is possible. In sections, his flesh turns to sand, his hair to dust, his bones to ash. He crumbles before your eyes, leaving little behind aside from the riches and wealth that he valued above all else.
The mage cries out in pain as the ritual is disrupted, quickly speaking arcane words and gesturing before vanishing from the room.

"What was that?" Vailis tries to identify if the man made some kind of invisibility or teleportation.
Spellcraft:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
He moves forward to the frame of the door profiting the haste extra speed while Meskhenet further fast heals his wounds.
The fast healing has a 10' area, so I think Kyra should heal too
If Vailis thinks the man cast invisibility, then he will summon a giant bat with echolocation.

Adeah rushes into the ritual room, keeping her gun trained on the doorway in case the remaining guard manages to climb out, but it appears she's too late to the party. "What happened? Where's that spirit? Was it Zuberi?"
