Thwack
"Circus?" Qivys' statement has him a little confused but he has no time to contemplate his meaning as the two hyper cadavers come running towards him. Luckily, Peri forces himself between the rundead and the kobold. Thwack quickly slaps at the air and sends a brain-dagger straight at the head of the closest unarmed corpse.
Meanwhile, in the partitioned room, the black tentacle strikes out at the nearest undead (moving to within its 10ft range if necessary)
Thwack lets fly a psychic blade into the mind of one of the things assaulting Peri. It flinches and winces with the sharp pain of the mental strike but continues to focus on Peri.
Meanwhile, the black tentacle emerges on the far side of the moonbeam to grab and tear at the already-damaged Drowned Blade. It is close to falling.
Inky tendrils launch themselves from Boko's tattoos toward one of the unarmed corpses. They flicker and dance, but cause no wounds to the advancing creatures.
Two more of the blade-wielding charge into the moonlight at Gerrard. (They take 11 radiant damage, or half that if they make their DC17 CON Saves: 8, 7)

One of them falls and does not stir. The other slashes twice at Gerrard: Rusted Longsword vs. Gerrard: 8. Hit: 10 slashing damage, and Gerrard must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save Rusted Longsword vs. Gerrard: 18. Hit: 4 slashing damage, and Gerrard must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save
Peri, Gerrard, and Qivys are up next! Two unarmed corpses continue to harass Peri. One bladed (nonglowing) corpse is in melee range of Gerrard The other two (still glowing with Peri's fey radiance) remain behind the moonbeam.

"Holy Crap!" Qivys exclaims as he just realizes two undead popped up behind him and are focused on Peri. "No worries lad, I'll help ya." he tells Peri as he makes his attacks with his battle axe.

Gerrard:
With a target before him, Gerrard continues to block the door as he dodges and blocks the attacks. He then launches into an attack routine with his now-flaming dagger and glowing blade!
Flaming Dagger: Attack: 18 Damage: 14
Flaming Dagger: Attack: 21 Damage: 14
Glowing Rapier: Attack: 26 Damage: 8

Qivys spins and rushes to Peri's side. He delivers two mighty whacks to one of them, but finds that these two Drowned Ascetics are much faster than their brethren. Only the second strike connects. But his powerful blow surges with holy energy, and causes a grievous wound to the thing.
Peri focuses on the other one; he connects with three of his four meticulously-aimed strikes. It is damaged but not down. Stunning Strike CON saving throw (DC 15):13
Gerrard's attention is on the thing in the doorway. He tears it down in two slashes, adding a third for good measure. (Some rolls: 4, 19)
Gerrard's foe is down for good. The two Drowned Ascetics each take on Peri and Qivys:
Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Peri: 24. Hit: 11 bludgeoning damage, and Peri must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Peri: 16. Hit: 9 bludgeoning damage, and Peri must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Peri: 22. Hit: 4 bludgeoning damage, and Peri must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save...
Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Qivys: 17. Hit: 11 bludgeoning damage, and Qivys must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Qivys: 9. Hit: 9 bludgeoning damage, and Qivys must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike Attack vs. Qivys: 18. Hit: 4 bludgeoning damage, and Qivys must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save...
The other two things, glowing and dodging, remain behind the moonbeam.
But you hear noise, as you see more of the horrors entering the front of the building, and even more entering from the back door...
Qivys feels a sting as something strikes him from above: Hand Crossbow Ranged Weapon Attack #1 vs. Qivys: 7. Hit: 8 piercing damage plus3 poison damage, and Qivys must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Hand Crossbow Ranged Weapon Attack #2 vs. Qivys: 25. Hit: 9 piercing damage plus4 poison damage, and Qivys must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... (also a roll: 24)
The bolts raining from above is enough to scare the tiny kobold, Thwack squeals as one of them hits Qivys. With attacks looming everywhere he decides to retreat to the relative safety of the kitchen. En route to his hidey-hole he manages to gather enough courage to scream at the Rundead still engaged with Peri.
A - Dash to the kitchen (moving to within 10ft of Peri's assailants during his run)
BA - Draconic Cry (gives everyone Adv on attack rolls against any badguy that could hear him ((within 10ft)) )
Boko nods and books it to the kitchen, hoping to get just inside the door. Not sure if 40 feet gets her there so if not she dashes. If so she has an action.
Thwack bolts for the kitchen, roaring at his foes. Boko follows right behind him. (40' gets her right inside the kitchen door. Her tattoo still flaring, Boko may still act.)
Three Drowned Blade newcomers from the north begin to surround Peri and Qivys, their rusty longswords dripping with seawater. Then they strike.
The two glowing dead swordsmen in the south room remain where they are, on the far side of the moonbeam, soon to be joined by two unarmed corpses more behind them
Boko may have her action. Peri, Gerrard, and Qivys may act.

Gerrard:
Seeing the desperate situation, Gerrard moves quickly over to Peri and Qivys. As he arrives in range of the pair, the young noble deftly switches places with Qivys, placing him out of direct engagement with the foes and into a more advantageous position.
He then scoops up the mostly limp Master Fenwader and rushes the rest of the way into the kitchen, fending off incoming attacks as he goes.
[Mechanics: Move action combined with Combat Superiority Bait and Switch to give Qivys AC for a turn, Interact with Object to pick up Peri, Action to Disengage, Action Surge to Dash into the kitchen. If picking up Peri takes an action, he will forego the Disengage and soak up the hits on his way to the kitchen. Hopefully he can drop Peri behind him in the room]
AC bonus for Qivys until Gerrard’s next turn: 6

Thwack
The bolts raining from above is enough to scare the tiny kobold, Thwack squeals as one of them hits Qivys. With attacks looming everywhere he decides to retreat to the relative safety of the kitchen.

Boko may have her action. Peri, Gerrard, and Qivys may act.
(Crit damage vs. Peri: +5, +4 )

"Alright, this is gettin' out of hand." Qivys says. "Tha others have made their way ta tha kitchen, why don't you do the same lad." he tells Peri.
