Kazmuk rushes behind the cultist and tries to knock him out.
He then Raises his Shield.

And that does it! Under that combined assault, the remaining man goes down. You all feel an odd chill run down your back as you know you made something much bigger than yourselves feel angry. Aside from the men and maggot, this room doesnt have much to offer. No treasure or anything really of value when you look around. What do you do next?
Caine stands ready with Peat at the next door...
Thalassa gets behind Caine just in case something shoots at them.

You all ready up and open the door...
Torches illuminate this fifteen-foot-high chamber. A pair of massive columns of rusted metal loom in large alcoves to the east and south, each fitted with complex hinged armatures and drooping lengths of wire that connect them to one of two large metallic worktables. Gears grind slowly
and glowing crystals periodically pulse from these worktables. A stone well ten feet in diameter stands in the center of the room between the two strange worktables, capped with a stone slab engraved with a singular broad rune with three downward spikes. Bookshelves line the northern wall,
though most of their contents have fallen to ruin—save for one faded red tome near the center of the northern wall.
As you enter, you see three people, one obviously higher ranked then the other two, and they draw knives....

Kazmuk quickly resorts to violence, faster than the enemies do. But because they are so far away, it takes him a long time on his stubby dwarf legs to get within punching range.

Peat considers the remaining creature and whether they might be able to develop a valid attack strategy.
It feels kind of dodgy, so they decide to take a moment to consider the room before making an attack. Specifically, they want to know if they can figure out what purpose this room may have served before it was taken over by these vile villains.
They then move further into the room, hoping to get into position for a better attack next turn.
Thalassa slices the last cultist with her wind!

slashing damage
She then moves to keep her distance.

Peat thinks about this place. He realizes this is a library and is rebuilt. its a probably hiding half the room, and that redbook on the shelf looks like its tied to this hidden room.
Cain just gets mad and dashes the woman to pieces with one hit. the place is quite now. What do you all want to do?
HERO POINT! We've cleared some rooms, time for a hero point!

Peat shakes their head. "How long have these beings had control of this place? They've been doing major renovation projects!" They point out to everyone else the signs that this was a library. He goes and gets the red book and begins investigating it. "Perhaps this book has some clues ..."
Caine sits down on a cushion, stretches and begins preening....

You can easily rest here. Its quite... too quite.. but people do leave you alone. Mostly the place goans in weird ways as even the stones are rusting around you. But you can wake up refreshed and all your stuff back to full.
In the morning you can mess with that book. When you move it, A sluggish clicking sound fills the air in this vast chamber. A wide, rusted metal cylinder stands in the northeast corner of the room. Long cables and articulated armatures attach from the cylinder to cube-shaped devices with ticking gears and monotonously clicking weights that swing in lazy circles. Just west of the metal cylinder, a copper cauldron stands on a rusted iron stand; one of the legs has bent, growing weak from the encroaching rust. The fire under the cauldron has burned down to mere embers.
In the southeast corner sits a stone basin holding a broad, sloped bowl with runes carved along the outside rim. Across from the basin in the southwest corner is a wooden cage built into the stone floor. Chalk-drawn runes surround a circle of chalk drawn around the cage. In the northwest corner, an empty bookcase stands against the wall behind a staircase that descends into darkness.
As you enter two red skinned women whos lower jaws split apart look at you and begin to brandish their halbards...
