R1T16: Bessel drinks another of his potions, and a brief warping of the air before him appears before disappearing.

R1T12: "An excellent strike, noble half-orc," rings Serafaim through his helm, "but at what cost?"

He calls out, "Push forward, but fight defensively to protect yourselves and others against their webs ... armor cannot do as well!"

Serafaim takes a measured stance and throws his mithral shortspear at the shriezyx on the altar, which bounces off of its very hard shell.

He then takes a sword from a sheath attached to his shield, one that none of you has ever seen. The sheath only required a mild curve, which made it look like it could have been a low-curve scimitar, but it is very obvious it is not.

However, unlike most swords that are made of metal, the entire blade seems to be made of some sort of nearly-transparent rock of some sort. As he draws it, it begins to hum softly and to glow green. The bottom of the hilt is adorned with a diamond that for some reason has a piece of metal embedded in the center. He steps forward, and is now L-FWD of Dorit.

R1T11: There must be a shriezyx to the west that the rest of the party didn't see, because now Seraphaim is covered in webbing.

"Poison webs!" he calls. "Be careful."

R1T10: Dorit ... there are three enemies on the field.
#1 The shriezyx at the altar, 30' from you. Serafaim's tactical skill gives you a bonus if you move past #2 (below), but you'd have to go around with your 20' speed and wouldn't get to that one. You can't charge the altar enemy because #2 is in your way.
#2 This one is 10' from you and would require you to step up to it, which is easy enough. If you do as Serafaim said and fight defensively, you both get a +2 competence bonus to AC in addition to the +2 dodge bonus for fighting defensively, but you'd suffer the standard -4 to attack rolls as well. Serafaim being entangled doesn't immobilize him, so he can still fight in this manner.
#3 This one is 20' over to your left.

What do you do?
