Lorvax braces himself for further fighting. "Is this not likely to enrage the spirits Lostur? I do not like this... it feels like a trap." he growls. "I guess looking directly into the mirrors is likely to end poorly."
Rather than check on the mirrors, Lorvax will attempt to discern the spirits reaction to the actions of Lostur.
"Look, they were our buddies in life. Why ya think they'd be our enemies in death?" Lostur truly doesn't understand, and you get an inkling as to why, considering that he regularly calls upon the spirits of the dead he knew in life to aid him in his fights, and they tend to willingly come to his call. Even the weasel-y ones. "If you ask me, they're waiting for us to clean the shrines out so they can be free again. That's hope you're looking at. Something I guess they forgot about in the years past. Now. Blasty blast or not?" he asks again.
"You are sure... That hag hasn't corrupted them with her magics." Lorvax says suspiciously. The spirits did not appear to react, but he would not let his guard down."If you think that destroying the mirrors is the key - blast away. Just be ready for anything, that's all."
Brenvull starts walking in. "We can perform the ritual around some mirrors. Or we could try and move them right? They shouldnt be here. If you destruct them, please watch out for the shrine".
"We could try just to move them" says Kray who has been silent since the death of the hag and their awakening, even when they cleaned up the shrine. She seems to be deep in though.
The presence of the spirits makes her clearly anxious and she was trying to communicate with them before giving her opinion about the mirrors.
"The fact that the spirits seems aware of our presence here could be an indicator that these mirrors could be used to communicate with them... "
She approaches one and tries to move it. Just to test if they can be moved.
"Uh... the mirrors are gateways, I think," Lostur says, "An' they can make undead spirits feel envious if you look at them." He realizes this might be a minute too late to be telling Kray this as she moves ahead. "Oy, close your eyes!" he shouts after her.
"More foul magics besmirch this place!"Lorvax roars,"Kray!"Without hesitation Lorvax moves to follow Kray (the same mirror Kray touched). He stops himself just before touching the mirror and hastily takes a spare scrap of cloth and fashions a makeshift blindfold. "We must get to her!"he bellows.
You all cry out in alarm as Kray approaches the mirror.
Lostur you cover your eyes and release your eldritch blasts at one of the mirrors. Your aim is true; the first blast cracks the mirror down the centre and then the second shatters it into a thousand pieces.
Kray you can not but help look into the mirror as you approach it and you a shocked to see, not a reflection of yourself but a tall dark nightmare floating there in your place. The images surges forward releasing an ear piercing scream and before you can move it is emerging through the face of the mirror and is almost on top of you.
In answer to the cry of the wraith another screams out from the remaining mirror and you all see a second shadowed form begin to emerge from its surface.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kray the wraith emerges from the mirror and sinks its claws into your body attempting to drain your life force. Attack: 18 Damage: 16
Lorvax the second wraith floats toward you, arms outstretched, Attack: 26 Damage: 42
Note: The target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or its hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the damage taken. This reduction lasts until the target finishes a long rest. Remember Haste!!
Lostur, hearing something going on, but not actually seeing it, just decides to point at the next mirror that Kray didn't touch, and aims in that general direction. "So, uh, what's goin' on you guys? That sounds kinda bad!"
Eldritch Blast Beam 1, disadvantage: 17 Damage: 7 force
Eldritch Blast Beam 2, disadvantage: 14 Damage: 1
Haste action: disengage
Lostur tries to back away from whatever is producing the sound of fighting, still flailing about blindly.
With a scream half surprise half rage, taking a step back to avoid the undead frozen claws, Kray unsheathes her sword and ignites it uttering the power word and tries to cut down the wraith that had attacked her.
( Attack: 10 Damage: 16
1 lvl spell slot for smite on a hit: 18
2nd attack:
Attack: 19 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

The spirits did not react they are simply staring vaguely in your direction as if waiting for something to happen.

"I don't trust those mirrors. But, uhh..." He reaches to his pocket and touches a second coin, querying it.
Do ya know what the mirrors around the shrine here are doin'?

Kray make a wisdom saving throw.
Lostur as Kray moves forward the coins answer sounds in your mind.
They are a gateway to the other side, from where the envy of the dead can be summoned with a glance.

Lostur closes his eyes and aims an eldritch blast at one of the mirrors Kray didn't touch.
Beam 1 to hit: 13 (with disadvantage)
Damage: 6 force
Beam 2 to hit: 11 (with disadvantage)
Damage: 5 force
He then stumbles his way after the other two, waving his arms wildly, eyes still closed.
Kray's WIS ST: 15
