Seeing Franzine take the hit from Red, Emdi calls upon Shelyn to protect his companion. Franzine's wound miraculously becomes a scratch. Emdi retaliates with his bow and puts an arrow in Red's chest (additional 6 damage added).
Quetzahl sends a jolt of electricity at both kayals. Red evades it effortlessly while Blue was able to dodge the better part of the jolt.
Emdi shoots Red at point-blank range and drives the arrow into his eye, killing him instantly. His second arrow finds a home in Blue's chest, doing damage.
Blue slashes at before retreating to catch his breath.
Apparently the air rushing out of the hole in his chest is making it hard for him to focus.

"Thanks for the save, Emdi!"
Franzine steps into the room and hustles next to the thug in green.
She spins her blade and brings it down...
Then brings it around with a backhanded swing...
Your foe hesitates under the weight of sin as visions of redemption play in their mind’s eye. The foe must choose one of the following options:
• The ally is unharmed by the triggering damage.
• The ally gains resistance to all damage against the triggering damage equal to 2 + your level. After the damaging effect is applied, the enemy becomes enfeebled 2 until the end of its next turn.

Franzine steps forward. With a flamboyant spin, she brings her blade down on Green. A loud crack is heard and Green's head comes off and the rest of the creature collapses to the floor in a heap.

Emdi's words have a profound effect on Blue and he actually starts trembling. Emdi's arrows bounce off the hapless kayal's head, causing him to see stars.

Anjo's first arrow skips off Blue's head, crossing his eyes and dropping him to the floor like a sack of flour.
You move into the library and find the area in disarray, with papers and tomes scattered all over the room. The initial shock and confusion of the scene buys Marcien the last precious seconds he needs to escape. An Onyx Alliance mage completes their casting of shadow walk, allowing the remaining Alliance members to immediately step into the Shadow Plane and retreat to Shadow Absalom—but not before you catch a glimpse of Marcien Blakros. The Onyx Alliance members drop several documents in their haste to retreat.
Toldrar soon tracks you down. "The Grand Lodge is secure. You may rest for a bit while my team and I investigate exactly what occurred today."
Within a day or so, Toldrar finds you again and debriefs you and shares his findings. "The attack on the Grand Lodge was completely stopped, thanks in no small part to your efforts. I'm not entirely clear as to how the attackers arrived at the Grand Lodge, a preliminary investigation suggests the use of magic akin to shadow walk. The Grand Lodge’s wards account for teleportation of several kinds, but not the specific type of shadow magic used by the Onyx Alliance, a detail that I plan to correct immediately. Luckily, my security teams were able to apprehended number of intruders, which confirm that the Onyx Alliance were indeed behind the attack. Those sneaks you convinced to surrender gave up the Onyx Alliance name. I don't know the full intent of the intrusion just yet, but I hope to learn the information in the coming days. Unfortunately, most of the agents seem to be under the effects of a powerful enchantment that prevents them from sharing many details about the Onyx Alliance or their leader, but I was able to learn that an individual named Marcien Blakros directed the attack. The documents Marcien left behind were all related to Pathfinder lodges across the Inner Sea. While the reason for gathering this information is unknown, I believe it’s critical that you were able to prevent the information from falling into the hands of the Onyx Alliance. Thankfully, whatever Marcien was looking for, it seems that he didn’t have time to find it, largely thanks to your actions! On behalf of the Grand Lodge, I thank you for your efforts in fending off the Onyx Alliance. Venture-Captain Ambrus needs a few days to focus on the fallout following the attack and how to best address the knowledge of the Onyx Alliance’s involvement. He plans to reschedule his meeting with you about your trip to Osirion and he expects to contact them in the following days with new details."
With an uncharacteristic smile, Toldrar concludes, "I suggest you enjoy a few days off and celebrate their victory in defending the Grand Lodge. Once I get done with the last of all this paperwork, we shall head out for some food and drinks. You choose between the Wounded Wisp or the Pig's Paunch. Both have delicious food and the best ale this side of Absalom. I would also like to hear all about how you were able to utterly thwart the Onyx Alliance!"
