"I hate this lock. It's stubborn. Like you." Enialis says when he is unable to pick it before he adds, "Lets catch up to the others. Being split up isn't the best idea in unknown areas."
“Dust...cobwebs. No one’s been here in a while. This doesn’t smell right,” says Hadrian. “Better to be thorough, though, with a young life at stake. Let’s check the left door.”
You've entered the storage room. Dusty shelves line the walls of this room. A few of the shelves have folded sheets, blankets, and old bars of soap on them. A cobweb-covered broom leans against the far wall.

Hadrian, Enialis, Elyse, and Faerynna enter what was an elegantly appointed room with an adjoining nursery. Double doors set with panes of stained glass pull open to reveal a balcony overlooking the front of the house. The bedroom contains a large bed, two end tables, and an empty wardrobe. Mounted on the wall next to the wardrobe is a full-length mirror with an ornate wooden frame carved to look like ivy and berries. The nursery contains a crib covered with a hanging black shroud.
However, before any of you can further investigate the room, a specter manifests. It resembles a terrified, skeletally thin young woman. Roll for initiative.
Specter: 4
Phanuel, you're in the kitchen on the first floor, entirely unaware of what is going on. What do you want to do next?

The pantry is full of food that appears to be fresh. As you finish examining the food, it strikes you that you haven't heard anything from your elven companions, which is odd, because pretty much from the moment you met them you've heard Fae excitedly commenting about everything around her or getting into quarrels with Enialis.

Fae whimsically spins and connects twice with the Specter. As she does, she notices that while her hits are damaging it, it's probably not as much as she would like them to.

Seeing her sister go in Enialis shakes his head and quietly says, "This isn't ballet practice." Before quickly moving to behind the specter and stabbing in the back with his dagger.

"I'm not stubborn. I'm excitable. And I know my mind." Fae sticks out her tongue at Enialis and skips up the stairs after Hadrian and Phanuel.

“Hmm,” Hadrian considers. “The other door?” He moves to open the one on the right.

Phanuel checks the pantry. Need to be thorough. And the elves are right outside, so at least he has backup...

Enialis broodily stabs the specter, but like his sister, he does not deal as much damage as he had hoped.

Elyse calmly walks forward to within 10 feet of the spectre and brings the glaive down in a diagonal arc through the creature.
