OOC: No it was Sildar's turn.
Jackson casts Toll the Dead on one of the nearest Ghouls, which winces at the sudden pain in his head. Nil swings and just narrowally misses with his first attack, but connects with his second.
Sildar uses his shortsword to attack the same ghoul that Nil and Jackson damaged.

Sildar misses with his attack. Harukai swings his staff and crushes the side of the ghoul's head, which falls to the ground. His follow up kick to another ghoul connects as well and deals a heavy blow.
The two remaining ghouls attack Sildar and Harukai.

Harukai unloads on the ghoul who attacked him.
Bless Attack #1 and #2: 14
He swings at the ghoul with a powerful 2-handed downwards chop, then follows up with an uppercut from his knee as the ghoul leans over from the first hit...
2-H Staff of Striking with Bless: Attack: 14 Damage: 10
One of the remaining ghouls takes a blast of dark energy from Jackson and reels just before Harukai’s staff strikes is squarely in the head with a crack. It falls dead and Harukai turns to strike the other with a rapid punch, which its eye to bleed from the impact. Sildar steps aside slightly to flank with harukai and strike the last remaining ghoul
Nil slashes at the final ghoul, striking it with his rapier against its shoulder, cutting its arm completely off. It falls in a pool of blood and stops moving.
Once that the fight is over, you can see more corpses of the gnomes, dwarfs, and orcs that waged an ancient battle for the mine. There is no useful treasure or other items in this room.
Jackson moves around the room to investigate, looking for useful treasure or other items in this room. "There is no useful treasure or other items in this room. Let us move forward. Lead the way, Nil, and we will follow after you!"
One other item to note is that, once you entered the cave, you could hear a low rumble every few minutes of rushing water slamming against rock. In your current location in the cave, the sound of the crashing water is very loud, occurring every two minutes or so.
Harukai takes a deep breath and looks at the bodies of the ghouls. He looks carefully at the ancient corpses to see if any of them appear ready to rise and attack. Recovering his glowing shortsword, he waits for Nilparin to do his scouting before moving on...

This tunnel leads to another large room. A blast furnace and mechanical bellows powered by a waterwheel are in the center. The furnace has long went cold, but coal lies near it along with some metal ore. The 5 foot deep channel where the waterwheel is has dried. There are exits to the north, east, and west. A dozen or so dwarven corpses lie on the ground and a green glowing skull floats overhead. You realize that the glow around the skull is actually green flames the engulf it.
