When you open the doors, a quiet light greets you, emanating from three of four pillars holding up this square chamber. The light plays and slides up the columns like pixies flitting through tree branches. As your eyes adjust to the muted light, the deep but vibrant colors of murals painted on the walls catch your attention.
Before you can consider it further, whispering and the sound of metal being unsheathed from scabbards interrupts your investigation.
From behind each of the pillars steps out a humanoid figure dressed in the same robes as the two cultists you fought. Dropping down into the center of the room from the ceiling another dwarf drops smiling "Welcome to my parlor said the spider to the fly"
Anvil steps back, closing the door on the five, making sure the rest of the party steps back with him.
"We should fight them in a place of our choosing, not theirs." Anvil says to the others when the door is closed. "If we back up, we can engage them with spells and ranged weapons when they open the doors. I can bring the Becoming God's fiery power down on them in a group but not if one of you is close to them."
Anvil moves back 30' from the door and turns to face it, waiting for the others to move out of the way.
Gaetana watches in wonder as the dwarf comes from above - what magic is this? What is actually going on here? As Anvil ushers them out, it breaks her reverie and she heads back with him, ready for whatever comes next.
Watches as the other move back out, Sulfuas walks backward following them out of the door but stand at the door with weapon in hand, "Come on mr spider. Time to get stomped," He gresture with his hand.

Anvil looks at Sulfas keeping the door from closing.
"Is this an indication you wish to fight them alone?" Anvil asks. "Or that you accept you may suffer as well as our attackers if I call upon my powers?"
Gruno holds up his short swords, ready to go on the offensive, "Anvil is correct, these things have been tough as just two at a time. Let's soften them up this time before carving them up, sound good?" He will step away from the door for the time being.
The cultists rush towards you but you all manage to step back pull the door shut. Go ahead and roll your initiatives. I will give you one round to prepare whatever you will then they will be coming thru the doors.

Gaetana, quickly seeing the amount of foes that are about to come through the door, casts Conjure Animals and two dire wolves appear in front of the group
Anvil concentrates on the metallic image on his shield, preparing to concentrate his power on the doorway when it opens.
Readies: Wall of Fire creating a wall across the doorway, circling as many attackers as will fit in the 20’ diameter fire circle centred there. Each one takes 24 fire damage if enter wall or end turn within 10’ (the entire inside will be within 10’) - half as much damage on successful DC16 Dex save.
Sulufas will just stand so he's closest to the door but just readies to Dodge for now.

The door bursts open and Anvil releases his spell. The group of cultists and the vampire spawn are immediately surrounded by a circle of fire and their screams of surprise and pain fill the corridor.
Dex saves: Cultist A 17
Cultist B 22
Cultist C 15
Cultist D 5
Vampire Spawn 16
The 2 cultists in the front manage to step back enough to not get burned as bad. The other 2 cultists were caught in direct contact with the wall and spawn was in the middle of it and manages to shield himself using the cultists .
The 2 back cultists are smoking and burned. You can see some of their skin peeling and are in bad shape.(Damn good opening salvo. Take inspiration for that one Anvil)

Your bolt flies thru the fire and strikes the cultists on the left embedding in his shoulder knocking the wind out of him.
He tries to focus on you and raises his hand. You see his mouth move but cant hear the words when a light descends down on you. I need you Gruno to make a Dex save for me, DC 11 (he cast Sacred Flame (failed save you take 5 radiant damage)
The second cultists takes a deep breath and jumps thru the fire (taking 20 fire damage) and falls to the ground completely on fire crawling a few inches before he stops moving (Damn that was some high rolls lol)
One of the cultists raises a hand and a spectral dagger appears near you Sulfas. It swings towards you: Attack: 4 Damage: 9 (oops forgot about dodge so rolling second attack for Dis use whichever is lower 10)
The last cultist will also cast Sacred Flame at Sulfas. Need a Dex save DC 11 or you take 3 radiant damage.
At the ends of their turns (just gonna roll once for them) they all take 28 fire damage
The back 2 cultists are turned to ash and the remaining front cultists is burnt over 99 % of his body but he is just barely standing still. The spectral dagger shimmers and fades as the cultist that cast it is gone.

Watching the creatures fall within Anvil's circle of fire is definitely something to behold. Once most do, she now has a clear shot to the leader in the middle. Sheathing her rapiers, she pulls out her long bow and notches her first arrow. She decides to mark him with Hunter's Mark and whispers, you are my foe. She looses the arrow..
Taking your aim, its almost as if the fire fades and your target is light up like a beacon. You let one arrow go impacting the vampire in the chest and with one swift motion fire your second splitting your first and driving the point even deeper. It stumbles back but quickly rights itself. (excellent!)

Anvil watches the cultists try to leap through the flames, satisfied with the power the Becoming God has granted him. Keeping his concentration on the wall of fire, Anvil does reach out and flick a finger towards the vampire leader.
As he does, he says "Sankta flamo."
Radiant fire rains down from above the vampire.
Action - Casts Sacred Flame Dex DC 16 or they take 6 radiant damage.
Anvil opens the door wide and takes a look.
Gaetana joins Anvil at the door and checks to see what is going on

Gruno you are up first!
Gruno takes out his crossbow and lines it up on one of the figures in the front that he can see.
