The monk is so surprised by Inga slipping free that Drusilla finds him an easy target, smashing Lucifer into his face.
To the northwest, a door opens, as two more monk rush to join the fray!

Skivven decides to disorient the master with a thin line of acid above his eyes, not liking his increasing proximity to the group's cleric. As he lauches the acid he utters a quick arcane syllable...
vs. Touch & FF AC
plus Debilitating Injury: Disoriented and Dispelling Attack
Disoriented: The target takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls. In addition, the target takes an additional –2 penalty on all attack rolls it makes against the rogue. At 10th level and 16th level, the penalty on attack rolls made against the rogue increases by –2 (to a total maximum of –8).
These penalties do not stack with themselves, but additional attacks that deal sneak attack damage extend the duration by 1 round. A creature cannot suffer from more than one penalty from this ability at a time. If a new penalty is applied, the old penalty immediately ends. Any form of healing applied to a target suffering from one of these penalties also removes the penalty.
Dispelling Attack (Su) (Pathfinder Unchained pg. 24): An opponent that is dealt sneak attack damage by a rogue with this ability is affected by a targeted dispel magic affecting the lowest-level spell effect active on the target. The caster level for this ability is equal to the rogue’s level. A rogue must have the major magic rogue talent to select this advanced talent.

Becoming overwhelmed with the battle-crazed monks all around and seeing Klaus suddenly get grabbed, Inga takes a step back into the corner of the small supportive wall of the portico. Using her finger to draw an arcane scribble in the air, she wills herself invisible.
She then quickly snaps her fingers and points to the flagstone floor beside her.
"Klaus! Here. Now." she demands telepathically.
In an instant, dark wispy tendrils yank Klaus out from the grabby monk's grasp and flings him into the spot where she pointed, nearly slamming him into the wall.
Slightly disoriented, Klaus blinks his eyes and shakes his head to regain his senses. He suddenly notices a monk with a bloodied, swollen face and Drusilla's arm recoiling from the swing of her morningstar in front of him. Howling fiercely, he pummels the monk's swollen face, swinging his fists in fury.
Klaus stops howling in his fit of anger.
The master skillfully deflects Daedin's first volley but is struck by the last arrow, as well as Skivven's stealthy acid blast!

Seeing the monk in red becoming even moreso, Estara drops her carefully calibrated and considered course of conduct and instead zips (Haste) over to the fallen monk to try and keep them alive with a restorative technique.
Talent Link Link
Element aether, water; Type utility (Sp); Level 1; Burn 1
Saving Throw none; SR yes
With a touch, you can heal a willing living creature of an amount of damage equal to your kinetic blast’s damage. Instead of paying the burn cost yourself, you can cause the recipient to take 1 point of burn. If you do so, the recipient takes 1 point of nonlethal damage per Hit Die he possesses, as usual for burn; this damage can’t be healed by any means until the recipient takes a full night’s rest.
If it works, she will attempt to heal the monk so they don't bleed out while unconscious.
If for whatever reason that is not viable she will drop her whip and draw a wand as she moves and apply the wand to the target.
Klaus hammers the acolyte repeatedly, but the man somehow manages to hold on despite the beating!
Estara finds it easy enough to apply the first aid to the unconscious monk, the blood drying to mere bruises. Unfortunately, this also causes his eyes to snap open in shock!
The newly arrived monk, unaware of Estara's powers, leaps forward and attempts to snatch her away from his fallen brother.
But she is too quick to be caught!
The master leaps towards Daedin, attempting to strike him in the face, but the archer nimbly dodges the blow.
He then leaps over Daedin, bouncing off the wall as he retreats back and around the corner.
Drusilla's opponent reaches out, catching her wrist in a lock, attempting to pull her in and prevent her from bringing Lucifer to bear again.

Klaus suddenly feels the ectoplasm that makes up his form become more pliable. He tries to jiggle out of the monk's grasp.

Skivven decides to follow that so-called master, immediately suspicious of his sudden escape...
At Grunjar's sharp command, Klaus surges free of the monk's hold, leaving the acolyte agape!
Skivven moves up to the corner, peaking around to see the master turning on one heel to face back towards the corner, unaware of the pursuit.
Daedin's volley of arrows smashes the other grappler in the face, sending him tumbling to the ground, blood gushing from his nose!
The red-sashed monk kips up to his feet, before offering Estara a hand-over-hand salute in acknowledgement, before settling back into a fighting stance.

"Well done, Klaas!"
Grunjar invokes Desna's Blessing on Daedîn again, granting the archer a Bit of Luck for another round.
"My Lady Luck, make his arrows hit every single one of his targets!"
Afterwards, the dwarf moves to Daedîn's other side (drawing his battle axe in the process), waiting for a monk to attack.
"Pow! Right in the kisser!"
With a puzzled look, Klaus glares at Estara.
"What are you doing? Just stabilize them. Don't heal them!"

Invisible, and watching her teammates try to subdue the monks rather than kill them, Inga quickly, and silently, asks the spirits for advice.
Daedin's next shot is easily ducked, before the acolyte knocks the second aside. The last shot is too fast for him, however, knocking him tumbling to the ground as well!
As the red-sashed monk turns to face Klaus, the phantom bludgeons him back to the ground!

Inga takes a few steps forward to get just behind Klaus.
"The monk in yellow." she whispers to Klaus telepathically as she nods with a devilish grin at the monk.
"Give him a shock to his heart he won't forget."
A writhing aura of dark energy appears around Inga's hand. The energy flows over to Klaus and swirls about his large ectoplasmic hand.
Inga casts stricken heart to be delivered by Klaus.
"The monk in yellow." ...she nods with a devilish grin at the monk.
"Give him a shock to his heart he won't forget."
Klaus snickers maniacally.
"With pleasure."Klaus moves around the fallen monks —and avoiding an attack of opportunity from yellow— moves into position next to the yellow monk, flanking with Estara.
He reaches out with his hand enveloped in dark energy and presses on the monk's chest.
He then follows up with a powerful left hook...
Inga rolls her eyes in disappointment as Klaus fumbles the spell attack.
Klaus snatches at the monk with one charged hand but stumbles, the dark energy dispersing into the ground beneath. Enraged at the embarassment, he uppercuts the monk with extra leverage, lifting him off his feet. The acolyte lands, shaking his head unsteadily as he corrects his stance.

Upon being given the salute, Estara nods politely to the monk .
When Red gets dropped rapidly afterwards she audibly grits her teeth.
"Damage output exceptional yet more heal than wand method needed. Requires future re-calibration." Estara notes as she takes a step away from the monk in yellow to apply another healing touch to the fallen monk.
Estara sees the bleeding stop, but if the acolyte wakes again, he shows no sign of it.
The yellow-sashed monk sets himself for Klaus' assault, attempting to trap an arm and neutralize some of his offense.
Meanwhile, the master leaps back around the corner, seeing Grunjar blocking the path forward. Swiftly moving around the entryway walls, he strikes at Daedin once more, before settling into a fighting stance.

Caught in a grapple again, Klaus suddenly realizes these monks aren't dealing lethal damage; they're trying to subdue.
He tries the "ol' switcheroo" and attempts to get the monk into a headlock.

Daedin easily resists the stunning impact thanks to Grunjar's bit of luck, which also allows the volley of arrows to strike true, despite the master sweeping the lead two aside.
Grunjar is once again frustrated, wondering how the master failed to resist a prior enchantment when the cleric's own influence was not enough. Meanwhile, Klaus finds the wiry monk too flexible, as his attempt to overpower is twisted enough to keep him from taking control!

With a quick bonk on the head, Drusilla send the master to join his students on the grounds of the monastery. Estara's lightning blast makes contact, setting Klaus' skin tingling harmlessly as the monk jerks at the surge of power.

Giving up with the wand, Inga takes a step forward behind Estara. She tucks her wand back into her haversack . Hearing Klaus grunt and groan she sees him get pinned with his arms behind his back. She quickly casts burst of adrenaline , affecting Klaus to give him a burst of strength to help him break free.
With a sudden burst of energy, Klaus tries to throws his arms outward in an attempt to break free of the monk's grip around him.
"GRRRRR!!!"
Skivven scans the monastery grounds, seeing nothing out of the ordinary.
Meanwhile, Klaus surges free of the grapple once more!
