A blast of radiant force blasts past the skeleton, crashing into the stone walls.
The skeletons continue to berate the party with undead fury, no care for the many of their fallen allies. Katznii feels a blade cut across his shoulder as the skeleton cleaves for him. (3 damage)
Asphodel tries to dodge the blade coming their way, their ample armor not able to protect them as a gash splits across their side. (4 damage)

Trinity’s first strike cleaves across the skeleton, it’s undead aura fading from the final attack. The bones clatter at the same time Katznii slips form consciousness, slumping into the floor.
(might not be able to respond for a couple days, but if Makani can make it to hit SK6, plan on leveling up your characters for the time being)

Bones smashed to pieces as Makani’s strike reverberates within the chamber, the place seems to go silent besides the pant of the party’s tired breaths.
Among the pause, a sounds of sand slithers along the ground, Their eyes watching as the bones soft back to where they began until the columns along the walls are once again built by skeletal guardians.
A click chirped near Katznii. Then another, and another until at the head of the chamber, stones tiles continued to descend, creating a stairwell going deeper into the tomb.
(level up and continue when ready!)

Ria slumps against the pillar. "Can someone...help...Golden Boy?" she pants before looking straight at Jason. "And then we're having a conversation, Sparky-Who-Doesn't-Like-His-Magic."
Jason sighs as the last skeleton falls and he goes to retrieve his weapon, but at the same time hears Ria call him out and tenses, ".....fine." He walks over to her and sits down, cross legged in front of her, "Yes. I have magic, however, I don't know how I have it, or why. I woke up on the beach a few days ago, and it was just....there! I don't know how it works, and best I can figure it just...happens." He seems very nervous and tense as he talks about this, and upon finishing seems even tenser as he waits for a response. The spark that was present during the fight seems to still be in his eyes, but more....nervous. As if copying his emotions.
Ria nods. For a moment, her snappishness seems to fade. She snaps her fingers, and a brief spray of silver sparks emanates from them. "You're not the only one with weird powers they didn't ask for, and I know how confusing and terrifying it can be. But right now, we're after some dangerous people in what seems like an even more dangerous place." Her tone becomes brisk, almost military "We need to use every asset at our disposal to accomplish our goals. Which includes your magic. That means that you need to at least learn what triggers it, if not for the asset it represents, certainly for your own safety."
Trinity notices the two of them talking, and walks over.
"Count me in on the Weird Powers We Didn't Ask For Club! My blood is liquid lightning, and I've got three different souls bouncing around in me. Honestly, it's a miracle I don't explode. It comes with benefits though. For example, I can harmonize with myself! If I ever take up singing, I'd be a real hit. That's sort of the key thing, there, at least for me. You've got the powers now, no getting rid of them, so try and focus on the good side of things. You have magic! You can zap things! It's cool! Once you've accepted your powers, you'll be able to master and control them. Hiding from them will only lead to misery."
"what he said."
"Ditto"

"Ignorance is bliss, and you look absolutely miserable."
Kathleen sits down beside Jason and says to Ria, "No need to be so bossy. It's his powers after all." She turns to Jason and says, "I'm going to be honest though, Trinity's right; you've been blessed with magic! I mean, how cool is that? You can do all sorts of cool stuff with it. I knew two people who had divine magic and they were extremely formidable on the battlefield." Kathleen talks passionately when she brings up the two people. However, her she seems to get a sad almost as soon as she got excited, "In the end... it's you're life and your powers, isn't it? Magic... can be very amazing but at the end of the day, it's your choice on how you use them. Do what is right and honorable and what your heart believes in. Don't let other people force you to do things that your heart doesn't believe in... bad things happen when people are forced to do things that are beyond their capability."
(Ria has nothing useful to help Katznii, which is why she was talking, lol. I'm pretty sure either Asphodel or Kathleen is our best bet...nobody else has healing spells. Looks like a forced short rest!)
Ria frowns at Kathleen. "I wasn't being bossy. We're in a highly dangerous situation and area, and we can't afford to just ignore potential advantages." She gets up and moves over to Katznii. "Speaking of which, I'll help anyone who wants to try and keep Golden Boy here from bleeding out." A slight edge enters her voice.
Ria will Help anyone who makes a Medicine check on Katznii.
The skeleton looking over him causes the spell to faulted, unable to reach out with the attack.
