This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Lionel casts his protective spell on Ketch who stands blocking the stairs, his axe swinging and crunching against the hard undead bones of the enemy in front of him.
Meanwhile, arrows, blasts of magic, and a spiritual weapon harass the stone golem. A final blow from one of them and the golem collapses, sending rocks raining down the stairs. The glimmer of a metal key can be spotted in the bits and pieces.
The undead in front of Ketch attempts to pull him from the stairs. Ketch, Athletics vs DC: 20 to resist.
Results may vary! Waiting on result from Ketch's roll.

Meepo unleashes another fireball into the room and this one is powerful enough to incinerate the undead in the room who collapse in smoking piles of ash. No more undead appear to take their place, but a stone golem appears on the far side of the room....Meepo able to see only it's legs from his upside down, under table position.
At 20 feet a turn movement, not sure where Spiritual Weapon is at the moment. It will move towards whichever is closer - Ketch or the Golem. And swat at whatever undead in nearest it at the end of it's movement. Ketch himself swings at the monster who dares try put hands upon him!
Spiritual Weapon Attack: 19 Damage: 11
GS Axe Attack: 17 Damage: 12 plus 8 Divine Strike damage if it hits…
There was not much Lionel could do in his position now, besides helping Ketch -watching him dancing on the stairs avoiding and returning blows of undead attacking him. For now he just silently prayed for the success of the whole operation.
(Harness Divine Power to restore one 2nd lvl spell slot)
For as long as we keep that position, consider Lionel in permanent "help" action for Ketch to have advantage.
No movement from Ketch, staying where he is. And just imagining Lionel looping a hand around the back of his belt and holding him still so he can't be shoved off steps...
Not having the magical power just now to take on such a construct by himself, Meepo slips back up into the space with the sad wizard. He shrugs as he settles down against a wall. "Meepo destroy undead, but now large construct out there, no have spells deal with that."

Ketch's axe slams into the creature in front of him. Two arrows stab into it, and then two blasts explode from Mordekai and send the ruined undead body flopping off the stairway. The things are easy to hit, but take a bit to destroy. Regardless, it affords Ketch the chance to step forward and advance closer to the crumbled golem, so he steps into the undead's space. The next one takes a swipe at him. Lionel steps behind Ketch, keeping a firm grip on the back of his backpack. (Ketch has "help" on any athletics checks to avoid being shoved off.)
Attack on Ketch: 14 Damage: 22 (DC 12 Con save or be cursed)
The group continues fighting their way down the stairs towards the golem. The bottom of the place is filled with undead and they appear to be packed all the way back into the ancient library. A few more swipes and shoves will be made at Ketch before you destroy enough for Ketch to step past the crushed golem and let Lionel grab the key:
Attack on Ketch: 21 Damage: 19 (DC 12 Con save or be cursed)
Shove on Ketch : Athletics (with Advantage) vs 23
Attack on Ketch: 8 Damage: 22 (DC 12 Con save or be cursed)
Shove on Ketch : Athletics (with Advantage) vs 12
Attack on Ketch: 22 Damage: 25 (DC 12 Con save or be cursed)

(Undead attack Ketch at disadvantage now! And Lionel can try not only to prevent Ketch from falling but distract enemies, so the orc can attack with advantage, no?)

(Disadvantage on attacks no matter, none hit...And best they can do is a 25, Ketch has 26 AC right now, so only a nat 20 hits...?)
(Didn't know we were moving down the steps, but that works... Looks like 3 athletics checks, with advantage, though that 20 will be hard... Lets see...)
Lionel recovers the key as Ketch continues marching down the stairs (only 15 feet to the bottom now, or 3 more undead). Ulthan and Mordekai relentlessly rain down death from above, while Lionel helps Ketch as much as he can. There are still dozens of undead however, the press of them trying to get into the shaft seems to go well into the library. What's the plan now? Just stand and take them on one at a time until you kill them all?

For the lack of other possibilities (we are not that heavy on AoEs, are we?) the "stay on the stairs and methodically destroy them one by one" remains the safest and fastest still way to kill the monsters, until the golem shows up.

Meepo huffs and dips his head out again. He casts the spell again, this time with a bit more power behind it... Cast at 4th level this time...
