Rhayna is not used to getting struck this often, but she has faith in her Goddess, and that the party will prevail. She lean her body as close to the menhir as possible, to make sure no one is able to get to the gem. (OOC: Can Rhayna tell is the gem is still doing its thing?)

It takes all of Rhayna's efforts to avoid the many blows aimed at her. Sometimes a missed attack hits the menhir behind her, but the huge monolith seems unaffected, and the low humming from the gem remains unchanged. One statue in particular continues to sprout tiny mushrooms, as well as gaining a light growth of moss, and is starting to look old and weathered compared to the others. Half the stone drow are destroyed, but the others continue to push forward mindlessly against the intruders. Although also made of stone, the gargoyles are clearly intelligent in comparison, and attack once more before attempting to fly higher out of reach.
I don't remember why I put Rhayna 5' away from the menhir, but I think she's been clear about wanting to stand as close as possible. It would be to her advantage to restrict the number of enemies that can attack her at once, so I'm going to just move her and her attackers closer and push the Queen out.

Pax dex save vs mud : 5
Suddenly surrounded by pitch black, unable to see, and unable to move, stuck in the thick mud, Pax squirms about in frustration. “KASTIX!! That didn’t help!”
Pax closes her eyes, keeping them closed, and takes a moment to center herself
She fires two blasts of eldritch energy blindy into the air where she can feel the wind from the mud thing flapping somewhere nearby in the darkness.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Pax fires blindly toward the flapping noise and is rewarded with two successive squeals of pain, but is unaware of exactly which mephit was hit. (It was actually the dust one). Sekkar deftly moves deeper into the fray, his trusty blade of pure energy reducing one statue to brittle uselessness, and damaging another statue and the escaping gargoyle. Dawnbringer's light also forces away a portion of Kastix's spell of darkness, exposing Pax and her assailants to view. (Not sure how I forgot about the light radius from the sunblade, but I've now added it to the map. I think we determined that even the dim light dispels the Darkness). Kaylyn also pops back into view as one of her twin blasts strikes her attacker, which seems to be only clinging to its semblance of life.
Meanwhile, the elemental strikes again at Pax, it's heavy swings still struggling to find the true form of Pax amongst the blurry illusions, despite her being coated in mud. The ooze attacks the next closest target, which happens to be a statue, and destroys it with an acid-charge blow. And the dust mephit turns to the nearest meat-bag, which happens to be Pax, scrabbling with its claws.

There is apparently no end to the amount of mud this mephit can spew, and the latest batch descends on Rhayna from above. (Rhayna: Please make a DC11 DEX save or be restrained for 1 minute.)
The queen is unable to strike again at the cleric, so instead turns her attention back to the heavily armed wizard who is avoiding her gaze. Stabbing swords and striking snakes assault Pax, after which the medusa again draws away out of reach.

Pax raises yet another shield, attempting to ward off the attacks from the medusa that's striking at her (+2 more HP's to arcane ward)....but one of the blades strikes her none-the-less. The shadows around Pax react by lashing up the Queen's sword arm. (15 cold damage to Queen). (4 NET damage taken after heavy armor reduction, so Arcane ward is at 2hps, Armor of Agathys is at 3hps). Blur concentration check vc DC 10 : 11. The blow is enough that the spell making her blurry ripples and fades away.

(Sorry, didn't realize it's Rhayna's turn after the DEX save.)
(If Rhayna is able to reach the Mud Mephit) Rhyana's alertness saved again from being drenched in mud, but she thinks that it was too close for comfort. She believes at the moment, the little winged creature is a bigger threat to the gem, and strikes at it with her drow staff.

Rhayna gets an extra d6 necrotic damage on melee strikes from Symbiotic Entity: 6 which provides exactly the damage needed to kill the mephit with the staff. Unfortunately in its demise, the mud mephit explodes splattering mud everywhere. Both Rhaynaand Sekkarmust make DC 11 DEX saves or be restrained for 1 minute. The silver lining is that the statues do as well.

Pax, suddenly able to see, but still mucked up with mud, struggles angrily....happy to see the Mud Mephit explode. Finally.
She lets two more blasts go at the dust mephit....glaring up at the big elemental with some worry.... while keeping her eyes well away from the medusa thing slashing at her.
