Mirna says "We'll stay here until it's safe to come out. Please come back and don't get killed."
The group proceeds past the sarcophagi and opens the large metal doors, which open onto a 10 foot wide hallway. Thick dust covers the flagstones of this somber hallway. The walls are decorated with faux columns every ten feet, and the double doors at the west end of the hall are sheathed in copper plate, now green with age. A relief carving of a mournful angel graces the doors.
Doc notices that a panel of the floor is rigged to give way into a pit below. He can see narrow ledges around the edge which a person could try to walk on. (DC 10 Acrobatics to skirt around the pit without falling in.)

Doc and Evzeen both scamper across. Shamash and Yed come behind. As they're walking along the ledge, it gives way and they start falling into the pit!
DC 15 DEX Saves: Shamash: 9 Yed Orilo: 12
Yed senses that something is wrong and manages to leap to safety, but Shamash tumbles into the pit. He falls 20 feet onto hard dirt, taking 6 bludgeoning damage. The walls of the pit are too steep for Shamash to climb out on his own.

(I would've preferred waiting for us to post, I was intending to make my way across with rope and pitons in my kit to secure a path so others didn't fall in.)

“I’ve no rope left since I used all of mine to tie up the sleeping princess, but if anyone has any left I will help pull Shamash back up. Or we could find a stable anchor to tie it to as he climbs.” Yed will then wait for the party to provide him role for Shamash’s rescue.

Yed uses Doc's rope to pull Shamash up out of the pit. The group proceeds to the end of the hallway and goes through another door. The door opens underneath a set of stairs. Above you is a five-foot-wide landing, with stone steps descending from a door on the landing to the floor in two short flights. A large stone cistern occupies the western part of the room, whose walls are lined with kegs and barrels. Between the cistern and the barrels is another door leading West. You seem to be in a large cellar.
You recognize the now familiar signs of a secret door in the south-west corner. Upon investigating, you find that it leads right back to the large cavern you met the nothic in. As he walks around the room, Doc notices that there is something hidden underneath the water in the cistern. A waterproof satchel hangs from a submerged rope attached along the south wall of the cistern, about 2 feet below the surface of the water. When he pulls it up, he finds that it contains a potion of healing, a bottle that looks empty but in which you can feel a liquid sloshing around, 50 gold coins, and a clean set of ordinary travel clothing.

As Doc looks through the bag, the coins clink loudly on the floor. You hear a shout from behind the door, and a second later three Redbrand ruffians burst through the door with swords drawn! The room they emerge from appears to be a storeroom pressed into service as living quarters. Two double bunks stand against the wall near the door, while barrels and crates fill the southern half of the chamber.

Yed will launch a javelin across the room over Shamash’s shoulder, hoping to hit one of men past his companion and the Redbrands that was first attacked.
Shamash scores a solid hit on one of the bandits. Yed's javelin hits the floor.

Doc sees the enemies within the room and Shamash go full into the fray, blocking the door. Swearing under his breath, he drops both his blades and draws his bow. As he dips behind the reservoir's edge and fires a shot at the second target in line!

Both ruffians strike back at Shamash with short, curved swords. The one in the back has to squeeze beside his companion to reach Shamash. Neither of them can get past Shamash's shield.
