"Well I can see to some extend in the darkness and you being in front with the source of light should be fine." he answers to Lotta.
He the name pulls back from the tunnel A and B to have better view on them and will attempt to hide. He also prepares an arrow to shoot in case he sees any undead.
Jordy will draw his weapons and stays near the light
"I think you for the light as well, I'll need my hands free for this job."

“Spirit. In every language in all the Realms, surface and Underdark, in every time and every place, the word has a ring of strength and determination. It is the hero's strength, the mother's resilience and the poor man's armor. It cannot be broken and it cannot be taken away.”
Amasu came equipped with a hooded lantern, which he keeps hooded for now as there are a variety of other light sources, and he can see fairly well in the dark regardless (Darkvision 60 ft). He approaches Lotta and examines the three tunnels. He carries both his shortbow and a rapier.
"Sabrae is on watch in the right tunnel (C)," he states, "And she," he nods to Vanya," has set an alarm in the main tunnel (A). So, I will go ahead and set up watch in the left tunnel (B). Why don't the rest of you watch over the workers. If Sabrae or I, or the alarm, sense undead, then we should be able to give good warning before they reach the workers."
He produces a bell, and lightly rings it, the sound echoing in the tunnels. "This would be my warning, and of course I will try to fall back to assist you as well."
Assuming agreement, Amasu will proceed with caution down tunnel B for approximately 20 feet. If things are clear, he will set up his station by spreading ball bearings across the floor (As an action, you can spill these tiny metal balls from their pouch to cover a level, square area that is 10 feet on a side. A creature moving across the covered area must succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity saving throw or fall prone. A creature moving through the area at half speed doesn't need to make the save). He will attach his bell with some string to his person, so that quick movement will cause it to ring. Carefully positioning himself on the far end, nearest to his allies, he will choose to go without light for now and attempt to hide.
sorvon arrives late but he did make it in time he was trying to gather some stuff for this but he is here now he says sorry im late I guess I lost track of time so whats the plan? as he looks at the others with sorvon is a long bow with about 80 arrows in his quiver
After roughly an hour, Sabrae quietly gets up, feeling on edge. She walks slightly further down the passage, trying to reassure herself that all is well. She peers into the tunnel, checking to be sure no undead are attempting to hide in the darkness further down the tunnel.
At my rl table, we roll new perception and stealth roughly every hour of a watch or guard duty, representing the change of attention over spans of time. If that is unnecessary, then just ignore the following rolls and mention something so I know not to in the future
(The center of the three tunnels is just slightly larger than the tunnels, so it not much of an actual room. The A tunnel runs south, with the left and right from the northeast and northwest respectively. Water is running so you can see that both B and C feed into the south ward A tunnel. If ordering of any characters is unwanted feel free to move them to a different tunnel if you wish. Also for future reference, we will do the hour skill perception checks, just do them as many hours of guard duty you are on thanks.)
To allow for contstuction to begin unhindered you are all pushed down the tunnel a bit. Tunnel A has the spell alarm cast on it that is possible to all hear the sound of a bell if tripped 100 feet down.Tunnel B has Amsau, Yelfrig, and Jordy and the ball bearings trap 20 feet down the tunnel. Tunnel C as Sabrae 20 feet up guarding, backed up by Vanya and Lotta. While in the middle Savron is able to stand and keep an eye on both B and C tunnels with his arrows.
At about 5 hours into the construction you suddenly hear the soft ringing of the bell down tunnel A. (anyone can take reaction to move here before the threat arrives.) After that Sabrea is you see forms coming from the darkness beyond your sight a total of six skeletons marching 2 by 3 you can see. Lotta, Yelfrig and Jordy can also see something coming into the dim light of Lotta shield. Both of you can see 2 zombies shambling towards you, behind them four skeletons almost seem to march behind.
Roll initiative, and prepare to to make any reaction/corrections if you need any otherwise, feel free to post!

Catching the sight of figures moving down the tunnels, Sabrae moves to the entrance of the tunnel, informing Vanya and Lotta of the approaching skeletons. “There are six skeletons coming up this tunnel, maybe more. I will see what I can do to slow them down, but I will need some help eventually.” With that, she draws her shortsword and moves 40 feet (base movement speed) back down the tunnel, attempting to hide along the side of the wall.
Stealth: 18
Initiative: 12
Clearification: How far down tunnel C are the approaching skeletons? I know that we are basing movement rather loosely, but it would help to know. Are they roughly 140 feet (120 feet of Darkvision, plus I was 20 feet down the tunnel)? Also, just to map it out, skeletons 1-6 are approaching through tunnel C, and zombies 1-2 and skeletons 7-10 are approaching through tunnel B, with *unidentified* approaching through tunnel A. Correct?
Amasu hears the alarm from tunnel A, but has his eyes fixed on the moving shapes in tunnel B. Once he is sure the figures are undead, he jerks the string to ring his own bell to alert the others.
Amasu stays where he is for the moment, readying his shortbow for a quick shot before falling back.

Vanya would move into position where she could see down the tunnel where she set the alarm. She prepares to cast Create Bonfire on the first 2 skeletons if their within 5 feet of eachother. Or else just one of they're too far apart.

Yelfrig will cut his arm and pour the blood on his longbow as that happens the bow becomes freezing to touch. He then prepares to shoot at zombies that are coming towards Jordy and Lotta. He also moves about 10 feet farther back from Lotta and Jordy.
Initiative: 18
(Couple of questions: what's the distance between me and Lotta/Jordy and them and the undead? Do zombies seem to have any blood in them?)
sorvon will get ready is long bow as he sees others going into battle he checks b and c if there is anything there also when he looks back he fires his long bow hit 13 damage 6
or if im not in fight and still watching b and c I will lay back watching and watching and more watching but also thinking of what to eat for breakfast

(Nova, Plaque, Shaz, Happy, Synt, Hydra, Folanan just for reference. Also for you Sabrae, correct is 60 ft. so a total of 80 feet from the entrance. so listing it goes tunnel entrance 0 ft, you 20 ft, the first/last skeletons you can see 70-90 ft out from the entrance. Plaq the zombies because you have backed up a bit out of the tunnel, you are roughly equal with Lotta now.)
Amasu readies her bow and fires it at zombie 1B 21 for 5 cracking its arm as it raises it trying to protect the skull. Yelfrig prepares his bow and fires it a second later into the front at zombie 1B. 16 and for 3 destroying the creature as it falls to the floor scattering to pieces. Vanya cast create bonfire in front of the skeletons, which she can immediately see is another wave of 6, who without a moment hesitation continue to charge through the fire. 1261711721, all but one able to clear the wall with 5A burning its legs badly. Jordy readies himself for a fight and will be able to launch his attack next turn when the skeletons come into the light of Lotta's shield. Lotta you take a quick count but being that you are at the center and your light does not reach far enough you can only hear the combat as your comrades loose arrows and spells into the otherwise darkness. Sabrae moves up into the darkness of the tunnel, while their is no cover you blend into the shadow well.(and the first skeleton is unable to see you this turn but will end his turn 10 feet away from you.) Sorvon you quickly realize this is not the time to think on breakfast as you see to walls of shambling undead coming at you. Firing off a shot hitting skeleton 1c in the jaw turning it to dust.
(Feel free to add to your post about little flairs your characters do, I feel it gives the story more weight to both yourself and each other.)

Not to be too picky because it doesn’t really matter in this case anyways, I just wanted to establish a concrete distance, but for future reference Drow do have a range of 120ft on Darkvision. “Superior Darkvision. Your darkvision has a radius of 120 feet” (PHB).
Now on to more important matters
As Sabrae stands pressed against the wall, she takes a calming breath. She then approaches the first row of two skeletons stealthily, and brings her sword down hard on the first of the two.
To Hit: 16
Damage: 8 Piercing
She then focuses, and follows through with two punches (Flurry of blows, one ki point spent)
To Hit: 26, 25
Damage: 6 Bludgeoning, 9 Bludgeoning
If she kills both of the two skeletons and is able to move away without invoking oppertunity attacks, she retreats 40 feet back down the tunnel towards the group (10 feet from the entrance). If she does not kill the two or if she is still being actively engaged, then she stands her ground, ready to move out of the way of incoming strikes.
"Well I can see to some extend in the darkness and you being in front with the source of light should be fine." he answers to Lotta.
He the name pulls back from the tunnel A and B to have better view on them and will attempt to hide. He also prepares an arrow to shoot in case he sees any undead.

"I can give you light, too." Lotta reaches out and touches one of Jordy's scimitars, lighting it up as well. "See?"
