Qivys marks the dead ascetic, and then clobbers it. It takes both blows and the holy energy he imbued upon them, but he manages to destroy it. It does not stir.
Gerrard joins their outnumbered scrum, defending the floor over Peri's unconscious body, and pushing Qivys aside. Grabbing Peri (quickly coming to consciousness after Boko's spell) he carefully darts through the hole left by Qivys' fallen attacker and sprints for the kitchen.
Two of the creatures follow, two remain with Qivys, another braves the moonbeam (CON Save:4 or take 10 radiant damage.) It ends its Dash next to Qivys, sizing him up.
The wounded ascetic tears into Boko through the kitchen door with its bare hands: Unarmed Strike #1 vs. Boko: 23. Hit: 7 bludgeoning damage, and Boko must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike #2 vs. Boko: 10. Hit: 8 bludgeoning damage, and Boko must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Unarmed Strike #3 vs. Boko: 14. Hit: 8 bludgeoning damage, and Boko must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save...
Another pair of bolts strike Qivys from upstairs, from an unknown assailant: Hand Crossbow Attack #1: 25. Hit: 8 piercing damage plus 5 poison damage Hand Crossbow Attack #2: 24. Hit: 5 piercing damage plus 5 poison damage
Thwack and Boko are up next! Peri is awake and upright.
(Right, thanks - the Fairie Fire is extinguished. And Thwack's Draconic Cry has faded as well.)
Thwack and Boko are up next! (Then the Drowned Blades will have their turn... Two on Qivys, one near the kitchen door, and a couple behind the moonbeam.)

Thwack
Seeing Peri regain conciousness gives Thwack a sense of relief. Creeping forward a step or two (enough to get within 10ft) he growls, menacingly, hoping to scare the thing into submission. He then launches a brain dagger at the thing standing in the doorway.

Boko growls at the creature who hit her, and her spear and a flurry of fists and feet fly out at it. She aims for the one that Thwack hit, if it's still standing. If not she goes after the one next to it, not needing to close to melee for the unarmed strikes.
Attack: 28 Damage: 15 plus 4 force damage BA: Flurry of blows Unarmed Attack: 16 Damage: 7 plus 3 force damage Unarmed Attack: 25 Damage: 5 plus 3 force damage
The hits she took have made her feral and fearless, and she stays right in the middle of the doorway. She barks: "Qivys! Get here, now!"

Thwack creeps forward between Boko and Gerrard and delivers a potent mental dagger directly into the thing's rotten brain. It reels but remains standing.
Boko finishes it off. It crumbles in the broken doorway. (A roll: 9 )
She reserves her second two tattoo-assisted blows to the uninjured bladed corpse behind it. Both strike the sluggish horror, but it'll take more to down it.
The Drowned Blade (#8) steps forward to assault Boko. Drowned Blade #8 - Rusted Longsword #1 vs. Boko:13. Hit: 9 slashing damage, and Boko must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save... Drowned Blade #8 - Rusted Longsword #2 vs. Boko:12. Hit: 8 slashing damage, and Boko must succeed on a DC 12 CON Save...
Meanwhile, two more close in on Qivys: Drowned Blade #7 - Rusted Longsword #1 vs. Qivys:22. Hit: 4 slashing damage. Drowned Blade #7 - Rusted Longsword #2 vs. Qivys:25. Hit: 8 slashing damage.
Two more brave the moonbeam, recklessly racing through it. (DC17 CON Saves or take16 radiant damage: 12, 9 ) They begin to surround Qivys. One is close enough to strike:
Qivy's' reaction to the attacks will be Shield ((Assuming Gerrard's bonus to Qivys' AC is over, Shield will put his AC to 23. Hunters Mark will drop I am assuming))
"Ya all want my attention!" a surrounded Qivys says. "Alright ya got it." Attack #1: 16 Damage, if hits: 6

(Gerrard's Combat Superiority bonus to Qivys' AC lasts until the start of Gerrard's next turn. Gerrard went after Qivys last time, so it stands to reason he still has it against those attacks).
With a clear enemy in front of him who might be blocking Qivys' path, Gerrard steps up slightly and lays into it with his flaming dagger and rapier!
Flaming Dagger: Attack: 29 Damage: 18

Peri:
Peri picks himself up off the floor, completely disoriented. "How many of those damned things are there?"he asks no one in particular. He moves up unsteadily to stand behind Boko and Gerrard, then takes a deep breath and lets loose his astral arms. They immediately strike out at the ghouls in the doorway.

Qivys tears down the two damaged corpses in two holy-power-infused swings. Neither get up. Gerrard similarly takes down the one in front of him with two swings of his flaming dagger. (Rolls: 4, 12)
Peri steps back through the doorway to get within 10 feet of the closest foe menacing Qivys (DC15 Dex Save:17) as his astral arms begin to take another one apart.
Another drowned Ascetic from the south braves the beam of moonlight (DC17 CON Save or take20 radiant damage: 4)
The two unarmed corpses lay into Qivys: Drowned Ascetic #4 Unarmed Strike #1 vs Qivys: 9. Hit: 7 bludgeoning damage Drowned Ascetic #4 Unarmed Strike #2 vs Qivys: 9. Hit: 10 bludgeoning damage Drowned Ascetic #4 Unarmed Strike #3 vs Qivys: 18. Hit: 7 bludgeoning damage
