Bran hears the commotion down in the basement and runs down to help. When he gets to the stair he tries to cast Light on his wand, but it just doesn't seem to work.
Seeing the shadow creatures emerge near Flow, Carrow finds his way to one of the creatures, striking at it with his quarterstaff and followed swiftly by an elbow.

The Shadow dematerializes and then reforms on the other side of Carrow's quarterstaff attack [miss]. Carrow follows through with an elbow making purchase with the shadows chest [hit]. After the initial impact, Carrow's elbow passes through it, reducing some of the blow's damage
Barrel begins to play his drum, an upbeat tempo, to inspire Carrow in his fight(Bonus action Bardic Inspiration to Carrow).
Barrel looks at the shade and plays a different beat on his drum as he says to the Shadow. "Your momma's so ugly, clerics try to turn her!" vicious mockery save DC 14 2 psychic damage at the one in front of carrow.
vicious mockery save DC 14 2 at the one in front of carrow. I will also give carrow inspiration.

[blue] Shadow Wisdom Save: 3
The Shadow gives an agonizing screech as it's face twists into a horrific expression. The creature turns towards Barrel, it's attention now fixed on him.
The Shadow[blue] in front of Carrow, shrieks in horror from Barrel's arcane insult, then takes off in rapid flight, right betweem Carrow and Flow. Carrow can feel the chilling cold of the horror as it brushes his arm.
The Shadow reaches out with it's hand, attempting to suck the strength from Barrel's body. Attack: 12 | 21 Damage: 8 Strength Sapped on Hit: -1 Strength
[DM] Make an Opportunity Attack if you wish, Carrow.
The Shadow [green] next to Flow by the stacked boxes reaches out for Flow to sap him. Attack: 23 Damage: 9 Strength Sapped on Hit: -2 Strength

Whoop whoop!
Hildigrim will move 20 of his 25 feet to the "north" side of the blue dot Shadow. (This having to hold a torch is killing me!) He will attack the blue dot Shadow with his battleaxe.
One-Handed Attack: 15; Damage: 5
Hildi will use his Action Surge to attack again with his battleaxe.

One-Handed Attack: 19; Damage: 1
If this doesn't kill it, he'll action surge to try again.
The attack seems very ineffective though it still causes the creature enough damage that it's black shrouds now tear down the back, revealing black nothingness inside (creature is bloodied).
Action Surge: Hildi pushes himself to the limits, swinging his battle-axe again with incredible speed. The axe connects with Shade, but then seems to slide right through it's translucent form, dealing reduced damage. The Shade screeches at Hildi menacingly, swirling over itself in preparation for another attack.
Bran hears the commotion of the battle int he cellar below. He rushes down the stairs while trying one more time to cast light. The spell sputters but this time stays lit. Bran runs down the stairs and into the cellar, just as Hildi cuts into a Shadow with his battle axe.

Carrow slides round Flow to surround the second shadow beast (green), unleashing a flurry of blows on the creature. He brings his quarterstaff down on the beast following it with an elbow from his arm holding the torch and finally wheeling around with a roundhouse kick.

IC: Flow stabs at the passing shadow (ooc: blue).
Attack: 18 Damage: 10
Suddenly, he yells in pain as the second shadow attacks him from behind.
Flow can feel the energy flowing out of him, but he's not down just yet.
