The narrow doorway rapidly turns into a scene of slaughter (for the deluded followers of the locust prince. Gashur leaps forward after missing on the leaped out the door and brings his hammer down crushing his head like a ripe melon. Beside him Jessica with unnatural grace leaps through the doorway past numerous surprised cultists to stab the one that had cast bane and cuts hw down with a single slash. His spell casting friend falls a moment later as a pair of arrows thud into his chest ending his life.

Outside the doors Leonius and Mong and the floating spectral longsword finish off the other two with a series of well timed thrusts and stabs and the last manage slipping and sliding on the grease, a look of deluded faith to the demons who had taken his soul on his face rises only to be cut down in a welter of opportune attacks...

Effective round, 5 dead and the last prone guy I'll just rule as "dead" as he'd just spend a round triggering AoOs and die anyway

The battle, so fast and effective, an excellent ambush! Does not seem to have alerted anyone else and as Jessica stands in the befouled entrance hall she can see through the open doors to her left a large meeting hall. The faces of the portraits that hang on the walls of this room have been slashed. Two marble planters lie smashed in pieces on the ground, and mud streaks across the white stone floor, a series of chairs and table are strewn around with meats (of a nature best not investigated) and drinks on them - clearly a guard room of sorts.

To the right is the way deeper into the Gray garrison. Again the open door letting Jessica and the others peer into the adjoining room. A bracket shows where a longsword once hung over a stylized gold sunburst affixed to the south wall. Lines of strange runes are carved into the walls on both sides of the sunburst. Dried blood and excrement have been smeared across the sunburst and a short bench for kneeling that sits on the floor. A door leads to the north of the room and another further east of which both are currently closed. The small knelt bench and the filth covered sunburst and alcove clearly a small shrine to welcome to those who enter the Gray garrison.

The writings on the wall are prayers to Iomedae and several repeated lines "“Let us inherit thine arms, Iomedae.”"
