As you slowly approach the end of the hall where it turns the corner a spined devil slams into the wall with tremendous force. Its lifeless body lays there head twisted farther than it should.
As you open your senses Jorlee the failure stench of evil overtakes you. Rounding the corner past the fallen spine devil you see a large creature.
There are 4 dead imps near it and it crushes the 5th and final one. There are wounds on it from its battle and it stops to rest not noticing the party yet.
Joree pulls her allies away for a moment to speak with them. "How about all of you attack from the turn at distance, while I wait right at the corner. You flee back this way, and when it rounds the corner, I will dispatch the foe handily. How does my brilliant plan sound?" Joree asks, grinning smugly.
You don’t think that they are harmful but are not certain what they do. A loud scuffle can be heard from down the hall and around the corner.
B pulls out two daggers and gets into a fighting stance
Still feeling the effects of their last battle Soren takes a stance toward the middle of the group - his torch in one hand and crossbow in the other.
(Do I see what caused the scuffle?)

You can here more fighting, the air filled with a mighty roar.
Joree activates divine sense and rounds the corner. (Is shield of faith still active? Duration 10 minutes)
B is going to follow behind Joree ready to avenge Silus.

B completely freezes at first and then stands entirely behind Joree.
Hocerys follows the others and raises his shield ready for combat. He thinks back to see he recognizes this creature

A feeling grips you that you have heard about it but with no memory its hard to tell if its true or more the dread of it driving this thought.
Hocerys waits. Perhaps the creature will move away.

(Would you like to proceed with said plan or wait a little to see if it moves?)
Hocerys decides to wait and see "Lets see what it does first before attacking it"
Soren nods and hides at the corner, crossbow at the ready.
As you wait after a few minutes the creature stomps off to the right out if your sight and you hear its noise fade in the distance.
Ahead of you there is a larger path to the right where the creature disappeared out of sight and a hall across from where you stand.
B you having been trying to get a feel for what the rings are. You believe that they bestow protective benefits but are still not certain what.
