The skeletons are slow to rise, but eventually begin to lumber over toward you, with murder in their eye sockets and chest cavities.

As they approach, everyone gets a readied attack on them. Skeleton A reaches the doorway and is immediately hit with Yue's fire and (possibly) Byrok's weapon.

Byrok, you can make your opportunity attack now along with anyone else who would have prepared for the slow moving skeletons.
Yue, feel free to take your turn as well, since you're at the top of initiative.

[CaoimhinTheCape]

On Byrok's surprise round, he strikes the Skeleton with his pike. When he does, he's disappointed that the attack was not as effective as he hoped. Pulling the Pike away, he sees that his attack made contact with a a thin protective around the skeleton's bones that cracks and crumbles away after being struck once.

Still, the force of the blow is enough to break the magic holding the bones together and they fall to the ground, inert.

Eldryn sees yet another of his blasts take effect successfully. Flushed with the success, and the joy of combat, he launches another eldritch blast. This time, he aims at the second one in line, as the skeleton at the front of the line was already badly damaged, and as a full strength blast would probably be overkill.

At raging Byrok, you know the drill.

More blue light appears in the back of the room. A hunched corpse wearing a pointed hat and dressed in a robe embroidered with mystic symbols crosses through the hidden door. Thin wisps of beard float from its bony jaw. It raises a finger, tracing arcane symbols in the air. In a hoarse voice, it speaks: "Secrets found and lost then found again. Your paltry minds cannot fathom..."

Eldryn is startled to see the skeletal alchemist rise up. So there were mystical undead in the place after all, and not merely normal skeletons. He lines up the alchemist, and sends an eldritch blast at it, trying to take it down from range, before it can start throwing either spells or alchemical cocktails at the party.
