Not-Yvonne grimaces, though it looks... pained? "Not... Yvonne... Telal... HELP ME Finish... Mission... OH GOD IT HURTS Kill... Spider..." The simulacrum continues to melt slowly. It should have completely dissolved long before any of this... but something just isn't letting it die.
The Aspect of Telal, the collective of tissue and nerves along the back wall, growls at the two of you, an odd energy filling the room. The door in the hallway behind you and Rowen closes suddenly.
Roll initiative. PLEASE... STOP ME...
*Heh cool post*
Initiative: 20
*thanks! I wanted to convey a sense of... desperate horror.*
King goes first in initiative, then it's Not-Yvonne, Telal, and Rowen.

Imagine two twin monsters that are the main villain’s personal bodyguard. One monster is a giant lizard like monster that’s practically big enough to act as terrain itself that has area of effect attacks that knock creatures back and cause difficult terrain. But it’s slow and it’s attacks take a round to actually happen. The other is a smaller snakelike monster that is extremely fast, can dodge attacks well, and is practically impossible to predict. However, it has low strength and is practically defenseless if it can’t move. Now, make it so that you need to fight both at a time and they can’t be killed while the other is alive.

King goes first in initiative, then it's Not-Yvonne, Telal, and Rowen.
*You really did as well, this is why I've missed the Spider Guild rp*
The king, sword in hand, knows he must do something. He's also aware that Rowen is with him. As a bonus action, he will cast shield of faith on Rowen, just to give him a little piece of mind that he's not leaving her completely undefended.
He's not sure he's got the will to attack the maybe-Yvonne yet, as for all he knows this could somehow still be the queen. So he charges forwards, attempting to strike at Telal. He knows this battle can't take long, as there's still people in the guild to be looked after.
He slashes twice with his sword, expending two fourth level spell slots to use divine smite on both attacks.
While you are conscious, you grant all friendly creatures (including you) within 30 ft. a +4 bonus to all saving throws.
Aura of the Tactician
While you are conscious, friendly creatures (including you) within 30 ft. are unaffected by difficult terrain.
Aura of Courage
While you are conscious, you and friendly creatures within 30 ft. can’t be frightened.
(Just note that I am using a homebrew subclass, the one the king took when the queen left and stuff. It's not made by me though, its an approved one from the ddb public list. Link to the kings sheet if needed: https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/81257961/naCQBl)

*Telal is an aberration, but I don't think that matters much.*
Both attacks miss. As you get closer to the Aspect of Telal, you notice how it's higher up on the wall than you first anticipated: A good 20 feet above the railings you're standing on. Your sword swings at some of the lower-hanging membranes, but you can only reach them by standing practically right beneath this thing.

Not-Yvonne stares at Rowen, their eyes holding a glimmer of recollection, but colored by a deep malice... and guilt. They hold out their hand, which releases four crackling bolts of magic that scream as they all sail through the air towards Rowen.
Eldritch Blast 1: 19 to hit, 10 force damage.
Eldritch Blast 2: 23 to hit, 8 force damage.
Eldritch Blast 3: 13 to hit, 7 force damage.
Eldritch Blast 4: 16 to hit, 11 force damage.
Not-Yvonne then blinks from their previous position, and reappears on top of one of the large water tanks, having cast Misty Step as their bonus action.
The Aspect of Telal emits another deep clicking sound, focusing on the King with malicious intent. The King needs to make an Intelligence saving throw.
