John Lee gives Mongo a quick wink. "It's all right son...sometimes those turtles can be quite terrifying. What say we make things a bit more exciting around here?" He grabs the guano, rolling it between his finger and thumb while giving everyone a second or two to prep there own attacks. "When in doubt, my friends," he mutters, "....fireball!"

Here's some loot, because all the plant life in this room is now in cinders.
The enchanter was wearing a gold circlet set with rubies (worth 1,000 gp) and a gold cuff (100 gp). She carried a spell scroll of fly and a potion of healing (greater). One dread warrior had a +1 longsword, and each has a gold cuff that matches enchanter. Inside the burning desk are mundane records of important functions in the Blood Pens. Also within are oil of etherealness and a potion of poison. A bundle of entwined branches opens like a coffer to reveal 100 pp and a diamond (worth 1,000 gp).
Kit nods, quietly picking up the potion of poison and slipping it into her bag. "Pretty impressive, John Lee," she agrees.
She divvies the platinum up evenly among the five of them (since Mongo is forgoing it, apparently), and forgoes any other loot.
Abruptly, Obsidian hops off of Taeli's shoulder. He gives Taeli a little nod, then pops out of existence, vanishing in a swirl of leaves and green light.
"Let's go, let's go, this isn't a stop and ogle sort of thing!" Kit snapped her partners. She saw Tun toss her a smirk as the gold eyed "tiefling" slipped towards the back door of the mansion.
Kit glanced around, starting to tug the firestarters from her pocket when an arrow came flying at her. The changeling dove to the side with a curse, and it impacted in the wall behind her. She drew an arrow from her own quiver and fired back at the guard, her arrow ripping through his cloak and tearing the sigil of Duke Belt. "****, I don't have time for this," she growled, rolling forward and firing another arrow that impaled the guard's thigh.
He fell to one knee. "****!"
"Oh, that arrow's going to be the least of your problems," Kit growled, yanking her blade from its sheath and advancing on him. "Child murderer."
"Wait!" the guard shouted. "Please, I never killed any kids!"
"Your boss killed most of my family just because they were changelings, and you probably helped," Kit hissed furiously, raising her blade.
The guard's eyes widened with shock as she came into the light. "KIT?! WAIT! It's me!" His face momentarily shifted and changed, into a familiar one.
Kit staggered back in shock. "What...Wic?" She stared uncomprehendingly into her brother's face. "I thought the Duke's forces killed you...what are you doing here?"
Rosamia takes the gold cuff for herself, although it takes some effort to fit on there, since her arms are more muscular than those of the scrawny enchanter. She also puts the ruby circlet on Amelia's head. "Your crown, Madame Hiriart." She says jokingly, while curtsying. And then she gives Taeli the diamond. "For emergency, in case you need to bring one of us back."

"Ah! A diamond!"Taeli muses, "Yes, thank you, this will be perfect fo- oh!"And then Obsidian was gone. Taeli, saddened and surprised, could only mutter a soft, "Goodbye.."
John Lee secures the scroll, reading over it briefly before stuffing it into a safe place in his pack. "We'll have to spend a little time with that later."

“Pfft, thanks, Rosa. I’ll be sure to appoint you accordingly once I sit upon the throne.” Amelia jests, giving the monk a bow. “Hope it looks good...” She mutters, adjusting the circlet that now rested on her blonde head. She then looks to Tae. “Yeah. We’ll get you a cat that won’t poof into smoke every time it dies!”

Glowing pillars brightly light this chamber of white marble. Each pillar is carved in the likeness of a smiling figure with its hands held out, as if ready to accept an offering. In contrast to the beatific pillars, alcoves around the room contain statues of four-armed gargoyles. Sprawled in front of one alcove, is the red-robed form of a male human. He is clearly dead. You feel an unnatural tranquility emanating from this room. On the south side you can see the exit.
Smartest man in the room Mongo pipes in, in a professorial accent: "You see, these statues require a donation, and if you don't go a donatin', these gargoyles come out 'n slice you up real good!" Standing back to adjust his non-existent glasses, he grins at how brilliant his new revelation is. Smartest robot in the room, indeed. Dumbest too.
Taeli stares at Mongo for a few moment before turning back to Rosamia. "Come. Lets us proceed before whatever attacked this poor man decides to do so to us, as well."

Mongo: "Dayum! Nice work, Private John Lee!"

Yes, he has claw slash marks all over his body.
Taeli stood over you, looking too. After a moment, she made a thinking face and looked at the gargoyles in the room.
