There was an opportunity and Leon used it well - to finish off the last helper of Sir Bluto. Invisible prongs of Wave pierced him through and the squire was dead. The man did not become food for Blackrazor, but he died nevertheless and the old knight found himself to be just one against the full group. Unlikely he could understand it, though. One last desperate attack:
SB vs Leon: Attack: 13 Damage: 12 SB vs Ramious: Attack: 22 Damage: 14 SB vs Alyssa: Attack: 16 Damage: 11
... and Sir Bluto was ready to accept his fate!
(Please, everyone, one last attack to see who will make the final blow)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Alyssa lets out a little amused huff in response to Whelm’s last words. Sensing hesitation coming from the others, the cleric would inhale a deep breath before accepting the responsibility of trying to end the fight here and now. She wanted it to be swift and merciful for these knights who are held against their will. It was the only way to free their souls from the eternal turmoil. The elf would wind up once more before hurling it at SB.

If the knight is still standing, it seems Blackrazor may indeed get its soul. With a twinge of sorrow, Ramious attacks....Attack: 30 Damage: 17. Attack: 15 Damage: 17.

As surely defeated as the knight was, his armor kept him protected from the worst of the strikes. Three attacks hit him - and all three failed. Silent to an outside observer the cacofany of voices erupted in the heads of The Weapon's carriers.
"Steady your aim, elf! Hit harder!" Whelm's voice vibrated with the excitement of a hunter.
"I wish he could see me coming!" Wave was no less enthusiastic.
(This was the magic fix! If you tell your numbers afterward, everything works just fine! :) )
Blackrasor struck true, the wounds were clearly lethal and the knight was done for without questions. But just as the black blade was about to strike again, still invisible Wave went straight through the man's heart. Sir Bluto was dead.
"Killstealer!" Blackrazor was boiling. Ramious did not hear what Wave answered and whether or not Whelm was trying to calm both down, but felt that angry menacing silence in his very bones. "Never let this happen again! You need those souls as much as I do."The conversation probably ended and Blackrazor returned his attention to the new owner. Who felt great, by the way, more than great! But the blade obviously hoped for more.
The room now was covered with bodies of the dead knights and the long blood-red cover on the table looked very appropriate (color-wise). A long theatrical sigh filled the silence. "I thought they will last longer. Oh, well, at least it was funny with all the nonsense spouting." It was as if Keraptis was not bothered by the fact, that the Blackrazor was taken. "I guess I'll see you at the entrance. Happy climbing up!"
Ramious glances to the others, the battle rage fading quicker than usual, almost as if he has control of his anger for once. "Well. We have all three. I think we did it? He's going to meet us as the entrance, probably for a lovely send off?" Ramious grits his teeth and says, "Can we all sit round the camp fire and tell jokes tonight, after we get out of this place? I could use some jokes....rude...clean, kids ones, whatever..."
"Sounds like a plan." Leon says from his place in the room. "I would imagine the going away party he has planned for us is not going to be as much fun as we would like." He sighs and spends some time searching the chamber for anything else of interest or value.
Alyssa would return Whelm to a secure strap on her back like before. She’d whisper elven words of prayer beneath her breath for the fallen knights who were used as puppets for Keraptis’ amusement. With all weapons in their position, their assigned job was almost complete but her demeanour would not relax. Eyes distant, she’d turn away from all in the room to face down the hallway. She’d simply recite the final words as her response to the others.
“That garnered, think not that you’re done For now you’ll find you are caught
I care not, former owners brave What heroes you seek to hire. Though mighty, I’ll make each one my slave Or send him to the fire.”
As a matter of fact, Leon did found something interesting. Now, that the group had the time to look around, you could notice on the wall opposite the entrance some kind of a door. It opened easily enough, revealing the treasure inside: 6,000 sp, 1,000 ep, 200 pp, rings, pendants, and bracelets worth a total of 14,000 gp, a potion of healing (greater), a scroll of protection (fiends), plate armor (obviously magical), and a couple of rings in a small chest, also magical.
Scooping it all out would take some time but the group managed. Now everyone just had to get up again and return to the entrance, probably keeping in mind freshly recited by Alyssa last verses of the poem.
Ramious slaps Leon on the back, "Well...will ya look at that. This adventuring business just blows my mind. Less risk than the military, and a reward suitable for kings! We should probably identify the magic stuff before we head on back out. If Alyssa's poem is right, we're going to have a fight on our hands, and some of this gear might help."
While Leon begins identifying stuff, Ramious begins forming a bond with Blackrazor. Keeping the thing in his grasp, he sits on the ground, back to the wall, blade across his knees, and closes his eyes.

Bug's eyes widen at the treasure hoard. "Yeah... adventuring is the right career for the money... but it still hurts. Let's take a break, heal our wounds, figure out this treasure and I guess try to exit?"
Bugs will offer a use if the healers kit to everyone. Better than using spells, save strength for last battle?
Leon strikes at whatever enemy is closest...
