** Kurik is melee-ing with Rondo against the chanter dude
Si'Nat, Cugel, Patrick, and Bertrem wait expectantly for the door to open. Which it does not this round, so that just leaves the melee...
Rondo's axe hits the chanter but is stopped by the armor underneath. From the now-rent in his robe, it looks like he's wearing plate. Kurik's blow misses.
The chanter dude says a different series of words and points to Kurik. A black darkness covers his eyes and he cries out in surprise, "Where did he go? I can't see!"
Round 3 - Party has initiative.
As the others keep watch on the door, Rondo furiously swings his axe. This time, his blow hits the chanter and continues through his armor, carving a nice slice between his neck down his breastbone. The man falls in a spurt of blood.
Round 4 - Despite Bertrem's efforts, the door bursts open and a troop of ugly humanoids come through, carrying various weapons and shields with a red eye painted in the center. Waiting for them, Patrick releases his Sleep spell. All of them tumble to the ground in response. However, a wolf comes charging through right behind them. Si'Nat and Cugel loose their arrows - Si'Nat hits but Cugel's flies wide. Rondo turns to meet this new attack and again connects solidly with his axe. The wolf is bleeding but shows no signs of stopping. With a growl, it attempts to bite Rondo but misses.
Round 5 - Party has initiative.
