Angus will cast cure wounds at level 2 for 2d8+3 healing on Hamish (this is 19hp if beacon of hope is still in effect (from #1450), otherwise it is 12 hp healing, and then move behind the giant to gain cover.
Beacon of Hope ended when Walks turned to stone.

Tabaqui should be a few more squares to the southwest, as he had exited the water.
Round 6
Tabaqui aims towards the sound of the gorgon's voice. He shouts, "That mural up above... it shows giants carrying away the stone. Where did they take it? We will punish them for what they did to you!"
Opening his eyes, he moves southward until he has a clear shot, carefully staying more than 30 feet from the gorgon.

(I'm not 100% sure of this: are Calner's eyes open or closed right now? Because he can see through the mirrors, so he would be effected by her gaze if he's looking at ber eyes theough the mirror, in which case he may have to make a save at the start of the turn, but if they are closed the snakes would have advantage on the attack roll. So, let me know if I should roll another d20 for advantage.)
Tabaqui aims towards the sound of the gorgon's voice. He shouts, "That mural up above... it shows giants carrying away the stone. Where did they take it? We will punish them for what they did to you!"
Hamish shrugs his shoulders, arms outstretched with an expression that reads: "Bro? Seriously?!"
Anti(?) Spoiler: No spoiler here.
The mural is actually the only clue the author gives me for who took the stone in the first place. There may be some breadcrumbs, but if they are, it sort of implicates Hamish's direct ancestors, who he thinks are actually from Ravnica, for reasons I would have to just make up.
Seeing his distance from the Gorgon after it moved (I presume it moved, it seems to alternate between locations every other posted map), Tauzan will ready himself to move in and attack if the Gorgon should come close enough. (READY Action - if the Gorgon moves to within 45 ft. he will then move in and Attack.)
After the first attack the illusion is faint to anyone who sees projectiles leaving it or any onether interactions with it. It does still impose a disadvantage to the gorgon because I rule that despite being faint it is still reflective and therefore a tangible danger to her. It does not impede the snakes though, due to their. blindsight.
