Much to his surprise, Sekkar felt like he is able to summon his helping spirit one more time! Which he did. The snake coiled around unconscious girl sharing it's healing light:

BA Healing Spirit for 2 on Rhayna

Not that it helped much, but given time, it should.

"Is that the main beast?" The lizarman never saw Medusa's before (obviously, since he was still moving) and was not sure what is it exactly. "Should we kill it?" If there was no objections, he would try to chop off the head of the monster

((advantage on attacks, if I am not mistaken, with automatic crit on hit?))

Attack: 18 Damage: 11

Attack: 21 Damage: 16

 If hit - additional damage: 7 and 7

((Pensives poison causing the Medusa to be unconscious should last 1 hour or until someone shakes her awake or she takes damage))

"Don't attack the medusa!"  Kaylyn yelled to Sekkar.  "Protect Kastix at all costs so he can cast his spell!"

Looking at Rhayna down, 

"Who has the healing potions we bought?   Bring one quick!" She says as she kneels next to Rhayna and using a healing kit she stabilizes her.

 Oops, my bad. Yes it lasts and hour, so can wait until Kastix completes his banishment if you like, before decapitating the medusa.

((Since there are objections - no attacks.))

Rhayna Death Save: 16

(OOC: @Paladin54. Don’t worry about Rhayna. She’s was healed by Sekkar, and she still have the Necklace of Prayer Beads. She can heal herself. I say stay with Kastix.)

Seeing that Rhayana has been healed enough to regain consciousness she moves to take a defensive position between Kastix and the rest to help defend him. 

looking around, weighting his options and deciding healthlier overall party is better then one or two healthy, Kastix will cast Cure Wounds on his last 2nd level slot and twin it to heal himself and Rhayna.

Healing: 10

Using Empowered Healing to redo it.

Healing: 12 (night and Day)

Pax moves between Kastix and the elemental, glancing around at the abrupt end to the violence.  Feeling a bit bruised, and totally spent on magic, she keeps her sword out and scans the situation. As the group quickly recovers, stabilizing allies, she stands on guard, watching the whole area with caution....though keeping her eyes averted from the medusa. 

Seeing Sekkar make moves to end the medusa, the gnome pair scurry around the ground and each pick up a sharp stone, then move over to the unconscious medusa and hold the stones over her eyes. They look to Sekkar questioningly, either signalling for him to put out the creature's eyes, or waiting for his confirmation to do the deed themselves, it is not clear.

Seconds tick by as these several actions take place, the tension in the space building as the humming from the gem intensifies. Then suddenly a series of events take place in quick succession. The elemental begins to descend into the floor, merging with the stone, while the gargoyle spreads its wings and flies up and away to the south. Another squat stone creature that matches the other two guardians rises from the floor and takes up an identical position so all three are surrounding the menhir. The humming from the gem abruptly stops, and then erupts in a brilliant flash that condenses around the menhir, shrouding it in holy light. Those close enough to the body of the medusa see it wither and rot in a matter of seconds until only the silky spider-style dress remains. As Kastix's spell ends, the three galeb duhr finally animate, each one bowing toward the nearest member of the party, and a feeling of divine blessing washes over every member of the group. The galeb duhr then returns to their positions, and assume the look of three ordinary boulders.

For cleansing the temple of Callarduran Smoothhands, the gnome god bestows on everyone a blessing of protection. Everyone permanently gains +1 to AC and all saving throws.

Rhayna

Feeling the blessing wash through her, Pax closes her eyes and focus' on it for a few moments....breathing deeply. Then her head slumps forward and she sighs. Then, a little glassy eyed...and looking for than a bit awe struck, she sheaths her blade and begins walking around to each of her teammates, checking on them, making sure to tenderly touch a shoulder, grasp a hand, or place her hand on their cheek for a moment.  "Well done....well done" she would continue to say as she congratulates each of them. 

 As soon as everyone was comfortable with finishing the job, Sekkar would grin widely and viciously - and do it! Nodding to the gnomes to do their part (he could be generous and not rob little creatures of such satisfactory experience). With job well done and mutilated head of medusa chopped off (just in case - would not affect disappearance but would make him feel safer), he could now fully enjoy (and realise) the useful transformation to himself and others. It was another case of direct influence of gods that he did not understand and accepted as part of the natural order one can neither predict nor influence in any way, but only accept.

He patted Pax's back in return "Well done, sister!" and wiped some blood from the exposed skin on his forearms. Rhayna seemed fine now and the rest of the healing (3 + 5 + 1 ), walked around a bit to see if the statues on the floor - especially that gnome they were asked to find about - re-animated, and then asked the obvious question "What now?"

The last thing Rhayna remembers before going unconscious is a hulking earth elemental getting terrifyingly up close and personal with her. She regains consciousness thanks to Sekkar, but she can still feel her body bruised and cuts everywhere. She feels the urgency to get up, but her body feels very slow to respond. She looks up and she doesn't see the elemental that knocked her down. She feels the healing coming from behind her, from Kastix, and she starts to feel much better. The feeling is strange, for she is not used to be on the receiving end of a healing spell from another person. From behind the Cleric, a blight flash envelops her, so bright that she has to close her eyes for a moment. When she opens her eyes, she sees the galeb duhr next to her bow, and go back to it's previous position. Rhayna is startled when Pax comes over and helps Rhayna stand up. "Is it over?" She asks her companion.

"I need some sleep," Kastix states as he uses his staff as a walking stick, heading slowly for the exit.

Pax, in a tired, but strangely calm voice says, "I believe the brother is still stone, but...perhaps something can be done for him if we tell them about his stone body here."

She takes a few minutes to ritually cast Detect Magic and look around, specifically looking at the Medusa's dress, but also around in the rock garden.  She'll glance at Kastix, "I'm sure you are exhausted good friend. You reminded me of a gopher near the end of that battle. Them popping up out of their holes, then dropping back down, then popping back up again....your survival...I think meant our survival...you saved the day. You deserve your rest.  Just a few more moments here..."

Pensive prance for a moment on the empty clothing of the fallen medusa and then flew up into the air.  He quickly went through the adjoining caverns to see if there was anything else of interest, flashing images to the party members as he does so.  When finish he returns to Kaylyn, resting on her shoulders.

Kaylyn dusts herself off and watches carefully as the medusa disappears and Kastix banishes whatever that malevolent force was.  

"I think we are done here." She smiles as Pax checks on everyone.  "I agree Kastix, I need some rest as well.  That one was close.  Well done everyone."

Topsy and Turvy, the two rat-faced svirfneblin, walk over to Kastix. Turvy looks on with beady eyes and occasional muttering, but Topsy fawningly pats Kastix's leg while saying in Undercommon: Saved us again, you did. First escape from the nasty drow. Now Ogremoch's Bane is gone. Queen Neheedra is gone. If you want to sleep, you come to Goldwhisker burrows. Meet Chipgrin. He give you good place to sleep. Secret ways we know. Topsy looks to all the others present, as though extending the invitation for all to come along...

With a last look around, Pax takes a deep breath, and looks over at the two deep gnomes. She silently walks over, ready to accompany them, but seemingly unwilling to break the silence further for the moment. She absently scratches at a burn on her arm just under her vambrace. 

Rest was indeed very needed but Sekkar was still bothered by that still-statue-gnome. "If that is truly Vort - the lost brother - should we take him with us?" He looked around the little gnome judging his chances to lift the (now true) loan decoration without damaging it.

As Pensive hasn't seemed to report anything of interest Kaylyn looks around one more time at the remains of the medusa and the rest.  She uses her ability to Detect Magic and if nothing catches her attention at moves closer to Kastix and puts a hand on his shoulder.  Quietly she whispers to him "Lets go."

She moves past him towards the door they came in through to exit.

The gnome statue is a little larger than average, but as it is made of solid stone it weighs about 470 lb. It is very solid though, and unlikely to break if carried with normal care.

Noticing that some of the party seem willing to follow them, while others would prefer to return to the gates by which they entered, Topsy says: If you not come now, then we will go tell Chipgrin what you did. You come later and talk to him. In the north burrows. You killed nasty Queen Neheedra. Goldwhisker Clan will welcome you. 

And with that, the two gnomes scurry off toward the large blockage in the northern alcove.
