If she does not see the vampire spawn fall either by the efforts of Tsavi or Aisha, Garu will come in for the attack.

Shield Bash to attempt to knock the foul creature down to the ground:

12

Then attack it:

Attack: 27 Damage: 15

Attack: 27 Damage: 13

OOC: There's only one vampire left, and it's the one fighting T'savi, so she doesn't need to leave its range to attack it.

The frantic battle is over in a hurry. Weakened by sunlight and already facing down a panther, the remaining vampire is shredded by claws, dagger, and jian.

The trio of vampire bodies lay smoking and shredded at your feet.

(But to pounce attack, she does :P)

Aisha heaves breaths out like a horse that's been run too far without a break. Almost falling to her knees as death nearly took each of them several times. Aisha doesn't move until she can catch most of what had been pent up breath. Once she can breathe enough ... she touches harmony, and gives her her true-last healing spell. (1) healing her wounds from their severity even if only a little.

Aisha is sorry. She kept that one....  her eyes turning to the panther.  ...Just in case. it was nothing personal to the others, but T'savi was almost literally family to Aisha.. Regardless, the fight was over.

"Let's see what we can find in here then we need to find a place to rest. We are all weary and worn."

Garu begins looking through the room carefully.

Harmony was so thankful as the last vampire was down, the fight over now. "Thank you. It's fine. I wasn't exactly much help really." she said back, nodding in agreement with Garu. They need to rest and get out of this place for sure.

(I'll post in a day, lot going on)

OOC: Remember that you had returned to a prior chamber before the fight occurred. I'll describe the area again for you, and if there's something specific you'd like to search let me know.

Area Description:

This room is 20-feet-square. Bookshelves full of books line the southern wall, but more stark are the dozen wind and stringed instruments hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the chamber. Stairs lead upward back out of the room, and another hall that had been hidden behind a bookshelf leads ahead.

Aisha points out one thing:  We should purrobably do the resting first, and then check it out, at this point. Let us rest, get what we can, then leave.

Garu looks at Aisha - "you are correct - I will take first watch. Let's find a defensible position"

OOC: Just so I'm clear, is the intent of the party to take a long rest within this same chamber?

With her wisdom, Garu would examine the rooms immediately near and find the most defensible position in order to them to take a rest unless her companions tell her otherwise.

Aishas logic would be: we beat everything up to this point, so it should be safe here.

OOC: Okay, just to keep us moving I'll assume long rest since it's nighttime as is, and that the party will rest in this chamber since Aisha is pointing out that you've slain just about everything you've come across.

DM Screen:

After a long, weary day of delving Ersetu and destroying the undead found within, sleep takes you easily. The shelves and instruments throughout the room provide an oddly quaint atmosphere among the bodies of vampires and ghouls that lay alongside you, allowing you to drift peacefully enough into your rest. Morning comes all too soon, but you awake somewhat refreshed, if not sore and battered from the previous day's events. At the very least, the unnatural chill that Aisha and Harmony have felt since being struck by the fists of mummies has subsided.

Area Description:

Stairs lead upward back out of the room, and another hall that had been hidden behind a bookshelf leads ahead.

OOC: Each character has gained the benefits of a long rest. Aisha and Harmony's STR scores have returned to normal. Garu can adjust her list of prepared spells if she chooses. What else does the party wish to do here?

After waking up, and eating to restore what sleep alone cannot, she gets up and heads back into the room they had been in before they backtracked to the one they fought in. They had come this far, and barely survived. She was going to make damn sure there was nothing here of value before they left. First, she looked around this room, checking each book for any title that stood out, or may have been some lever. She doubted the instruments would have anything and likely would trigger some trap... but once that inspection was over shed head back to the room they had abandoned before going inside, to check every inch of it, including the tombs. She felt that likely the undead had came from there, though she could be wrong and lead the party into more fights.... she wasn't going to leave empty handed until she knew there was nothing here.

The books lining the shelves of this chamber match the decor - books of the arts, mainly of a musical nature, with some poetry sprinkled in. The books have not been tended to in quite some time, but despite their aged appearance, many are still intact.

In the next chamber, Aisha examines the coffins, each engraved with a different name: Nycteri, Myzopid, Phyllos, Furip, & Antroz. The coffin lids are heavy, but simple enough to remove with some effort. Within, Aisha discovers no bones or remains, but does discover an abundance of valuable belongings: Pouches with 247 gold coins along with 2 gemstones among them all. One coffin contains a wand that carries an intense magical quality; in another, she finds a suit of chain mail of exceptional quality, and in a third, three spell scrolls that are indecipherable to her.

Along with the wand is a sheet of parchment that she can read, however:

Master,

The Cyndari reports that your diversions are working to great effect. Enough time has been bought at Hexfeuer for the demon to solidify the strength within the shrine of Impag. The device is remarkable. At this point, I would wager even the most wondrous weapon on this world could not cause a simple scratch. Each sacrifice brought by the Dokkalfar swell its power. It shant be long before the avatar of Kayel himself steps through the shrine to bring us into his new world.

Dohkloom - that is the command, when the portal in the tunnels is ready.

Your most loyal servant,
Philip Phyllos

OOC: Ready to advance once the next action is taken.

Harmony woke up, feeling so much better and refreshed now as her strength was returned to her. She thought of what to do, watching Aisha go into another room. "Did you find anything?" she called out, hoping that there weren't more new enemies here now since they slept for so long.

Aisha was simultaneously shocked, and not to find some of it. The treasure? sure. The other stuff? Who would have guessed. Regardless, she had little magical talent, and the chainmail was far too heavy for her to consider using.

Once she's done, she divvies up the more special gear... Nyot much, but some. Aisha will keep the money, since the rest she is giving to you two.  and with that, she handed the wand to Harmony, and the chainmail to Garu - the only person in the group who even might want it for actual use in combat. Keeping the gems and the gold for herself since she felt that was the fairest way to handle this.

The scrolls, she says the other two can take what they want. they mean nothing to her and the gold from the treasure itself would likely net her something better in the end.

Once the divvying is done, she says to the others that We've rested. We got somethign for ourrr troubles. Let us continue. The only other thing in there was a note.... she says, reading its text to the others. She felt she knew where they were going next.

Garu hoists up the chainmail to see if there is any magical aspect to it. Unless it is magically imbued, Garu knows her dextrous form is quieter and better served in her current armor.
