Only Zenobia's first fan slash cuts deep. Despite all his maneuvering, Red Roy only gets in a lackluster poke. The spirtual blast sizzles a bit and the wounds begin to stitch up again.
Red Scholar of Sorts -67 damage <fast healing, no reactions>
Zenobia -16 damage <stupefied 1, nimble dodge>
Red Roy

"The creature's prodigious recovery is proving troublesome."
The professor ponders the creature in search of any weakness. He then touches a charm on his armor and fires a beam of icy cold at the creature.

The professor blasts the scholar. It winces before turning upon the menace with the fan blades, dropping her with a pair of greedy chomps. Lashing its tail out - it whaps the other rogue hard for good measure.

Bun Bun -14 damage
Zenobia -44 damage <stupefied 1, unconscious, 0 hp, dying 1>

The clever distraction proves fatal as Red Roy's goes hilt-deep into the scholar several times. The other rogue is brought back up and even a confused Zenobia picks up her fan and helps to finish the scholar off.
Red Scholar of Sorts -93 damage <dead>
Red Roy -19 damage

Bun Bun -14 damage
Zenobia -15 damage <stupefied 1, wounded 1>

With the Scholar of Secrets defeated, all of the "homework" fades away and the academy sits quiet now. You notice that when the scholar transformed from the visage of the halfling student, a bracelet of bell-chimes fell to the ground. They remain as the only memorabilia of the encounter. The bells are artfully crafted, though when you pick them up... they emit a louder than expected discordant tone.
-----------------------------
After a full night’s sleep, you are summoned to the Grand Lodge to report on the mysteries and their conclusions. J Dacilane meets with your group in a well-appointed tearoom and listens carefully to what you have found.

Zenobia finally gets her head cleared. "We have done everything that we had clues for. Time to report and recover."
On the way out, she checks the statues and their bases. "I wonder how they were built to trigger."
"That covers the main points. Some things seemed more like pranks than truly harmful, I very much hope they were also done by the entity and not some poor-mannered student."
