"I have used up all my spells in the tower, I would probably just hinder you in a fight." At the same time, Nathan instructs Fluffy to fly over the fog, if possible, and tell him what he sees.
(OOC: Can I still use my cantrips? If so, I would like to ready an action to shoot a Fire Bolt at whatever emerges from the cloud)
With his cantrips also spent, Nathan sends Fluffy above the fog where she can see (if this is possible), and uses his action to use Fluffy's superior senses to see and hear what is going on. He immediately tells the others if he sees or hears anything.
( OOC: I don't know whether I need to roll a Perception for this, but just in case)
Perception: 7

A voice echoes in Urselles' mind; "You are not alone." as you feel the presence of Eldath within you. You feel Chauntea watching over you as well.
You watch the movement in the fog, but you couldn't expect what steps into view. It... was a person once. It's limp and dead face still holds the look of horror from the moment he died. The head turns to you; not the eyes, they aren't needed anymore.
Below the neck holds a horror much greater. The flesh, covered in rot, has been shredded; as if a dozen claws had stripped it from this person. Instead it is the image of barely covered bones, with bits of innards remaining.
Soon another steps closer to view; then another; all similarly mutilated. The moaning sound is coming from what's left of their throats; if anything.
Nathan, you feel your consciousness slip away; and with it the sensation of fear. You suddenly blink and let out a loud screeching hoot as your wings flap; keeping you afloat over the fog. Spying down upon the road and buildings below you, you witness at least seven skeletal creatures approaching yourself and your allies; coming around Han's house on both sides.
Shalech, it's an effort but you get Dar back to the tower. Isa calls out in shock; "What's going on out there?!" Eliath rushes up to check Dar for wounds; Varni hides in the corner near the stairs.
Croak, one of the skeletons shambles over towards you. It raises it's arms as it nears; it's still fingered hands flex in grasping motions. You are sure it intends to assault you once in reach.
Kizori and Urselles feel Eldath's divine presence as her healing power flows through Kizori into Han. Han, seeing the situation around him asks Kizori; "Please get me to Dar; I need to recover."
Croak can barely see through the fog. He smells it first, like a sealed jar of meat that had been left in the sun being opened under his nose. Then he sees the hardly-fleshed arm raised towards him. He would like to believe that it was his training that caused him to react but it was more likely the mixed blood in his veins that triggered his actions.
Croak lashes out with a single handed slash with his sword.
To Hit: 15
Damage: 7
Regardless of whether he hits or misses he will attempt to run through the fog in the direction or Urselles voice if she responds to his call or toward where he thinks she was.
(Perception maybe to go off in the right direction? 16 )
If he successfully makes it to Urselles and is within reach of the undead, he will now use his action surge to make another attack.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Nathan yells out to the others: "Guys, there are seven more of them approaching the house! I think it is time for us to leave!" He is going to stick by Han and Kizori, and leave with them if they do. With all his magic spent, he does not want to attempt to rush to Dar's tower alone, thus risking being attacked by the undead creatures.
Nathan also instructs Fluffy to attack any of the undead that the party members have attacked and are still standing, then fly out of reach (Owls have Flyby, so they do not provoke attacks of opportunity when they fly out of range).
Urselles' sword flies downward towards the approaching skeleton; slashing against it's head, dislodging a flap of skin. A chunk of skull breaks off.
Fluffy seizes the opportunity, diving in for an attack. It viscously rips an eye out; flying away with it. The skeleton fails to notice.
Shalech, after getting Dar to the couch; Eliath notes that he is unharmed. You look behind you, but no one else has arrived yet.
Croak chops with all his might; severing the closest undead arm in half. The skeleton slashes out with it's other arm when you head towards your friend. (Skeleton Attack: 14, Disadvantage: 18; Damage if hit: 3)
You then run over and literally chop the skeleton near Urselles in half. To your dismay, that only appears to stop the lower legs; as it's upper body continues to claw towards your direction.
Kizori picks up Han, and rushes towards Dar's tower; with Nathan at his side. The two pile into the tower shortly after Shalech.
(Basically those that are out of the fight are out of initiative; but I'm using initiative to help give everyone a chance to make actions or otherwise roleplay.)
If Fluffy is still in the fight, she attacks the Skeleton that Croak hurt that has no legs, and then flies out of reach again:
Attack: 9
Damage: 1
As soon as they enter the tower, Nathan asks the others: "Han, Master Dar, are you all right? Do you need any help? Master Dar, are there any magical weapons, scrolls, wands, or other items in the tower that were not affected by your spell? It seems to me that normal weapons don't hurt the Spectral Wizard. Did you manage to figure out anything about the creature? Also, I don't have any magic left, but I would like to go back and help the others, if there is a way. "

Croak has his sword and shield drawn, ready to strike.

The battle is happening at Han's residence, or around it.
Shalech is currently on his way or at Dar's tower (depending on the timeline), with Dar.
(The battle was in Han's home; now it's in the street. The undead are moving around Han's house; a few on each side.)
Kizori picks up Han, throwing him over his shell, and takes off for Dar's tower, "I'll be back! I'll help fight. Let me get him to safety first."
Urselles' sword flies downward towards the approaching skeleton; slashing against it's head, dislodging a flap of skin. A chunk of skull breaks off.
Fluffy seizes the opportunity, diving in for an attack. It viscously rips an eye out; flying away with it. The skeleton fails to notice.
Shalech, after getting Dar to the couch; Eliath notes that he is unharmed. You look behind you, but no one else has arrived yet.

You then run over and literally chop the skeleton near Urselles in half. To your dismay, that only appears to stop the lower legs; as it's upper body continues to claw towards your direction.
Kizori picks up Han, and rushes towards Dar's tower; with Nathan at his side. The two pile into the tower shortly after Shalech.
(I don't imagine carrying Dar to his tower took 1 turn, but Shalech will go find that magic sword and bring it to Croak, in the time it takes).
(Yeah, the two groups are definitely at different times right now.)
(Unless the rules have changed with 5e, one round, everyone's turns, is supposed to be six seconds.)
(Basically those that are out of the fight are out of initiative; but I'm using initiative to help give everyone a chance to make actions or otherwise roleplay.)
If Fluffy is still in the fight, she attacks the Skeleton that Croak hurt that has no legs, and then flies out of reach again:
Attack: 9
Damage: 1
As soon as they enter the tower, Nathan asks the others: "Han, Master Dar, are you all right? Do you need any help?
