As Ignazio pulls out his healer's kit, he says to Velon, "My name is Ignazio. I am simply here to recover a misplaced item." He then wades cautiously in the direction Velon pointed. As he passes, he comments "The more interesting question is what you are doing here… "
Out of Character: :
Ignazio will use charges from his kit to revive the fallen party members.
Out of Character: . Dialog for the next round since Velon has already spoken a lot and likely isn't in the bedroom with Ignazio just yet…
"Greetings Ignazio, and thank you for your help. I am Velon of the Silver Blaze. We are here to thwart this evil cult. Have you allegiance to them? Speak the truth now, as I will know if you do not. What item are you here for?"
Poljen once more lays into the giantess, his axe taking huge cuts, deep into her thighs. He is sure she will fall, but somehow she remains upright. She drops the broken furniture, grabs him and Lora, then grins evilly. She swings her arms back, then as if about to applaud herself, she smashes both of her victims towards each other. Poljen has one brief thought about how this is not the way he wanted to get up close and personal with the buxom cleric, then everything goes black.
Time seems to stand still, and he expects the next thing he will see is all of the Stone Leopards waiting to greet him. He hopes they will approve of how he has conducted himself. Did he represent the Stone Leopards well enough they will welcome him? Or did he not do enough? He just slew one giant, practically single-handed. Yes, it was sleeping at first, and wearing nothing. But the Stone Leopards always were impressed by smart fighting as well as strength. He delivered the death blow to a blue dragon, and Rezmir the half-dragon. The fight outside the control room alone was a marvel, even in his own mind.
Then he sees them. Well, his parents at any rate. They stand on the rocky plain where he buried them. His father nods and smiles at him approvingly. His mother embraces him, but then pulls back and whispers fiercely, "It is not your time yet, my son! Go!"
His father steps forward and also embraces him. "Rest assured, all of our clan sing of your glory when we feast each night. There is much more good you can do in the world. Do not rush to join us. Eternity is a long time, and can wait for you. We both, we ALL, are very proud of you." Then his father smiles slyly, in the way he did whenever he was looking at Poljen's mother with desire. "Maybe you can still produce another Stone Leopard yet!" His mother rolls her eyes at her husband, but it is clear she would not mind such a thing. They both once more embrace him and kiss his cheeks. "We will see you soon enough, but make sure it is not too soon!" There is darkness once more.
He swears he can feel tears on his cheeks, and they might belong to both him and his parents. But then his eyes begin to see light, and out-of-focus things. They are moving, and he can hear talking, but can not see or hear clearly. Finally he is able to discern doughty Velon. He wants to chastise the paladin for coming after them, but knows that would be churlish. Then his eyes go wide. He croaks out, "Lora? Cratol? Are they alive too?"
Tazskan, sees both Zarra and Poppo leave.
" We don't leave anyone behind, Zarra!"
He gives a quiet nod to the Queen, and accompanys them both as they all leave the room.
He is guided, by the pseudodragon now to where the others are.
Ignazio passes Velon and into the indicated room. The bloody corpse of another giant, this one male, lies on a ruined bed. A man in simple clothing lies crumpled in a far corner, and a woman in studded leather and with a shield is lying on the floor at the foot of the bed.
In the control room, the ghost of the queen asks, "Where are you going? Did not the scaled one just say the conflict is over?"
Out of Character: I'll need a Medicine check for the healer's kit. And roll 1d6+4 for the possible HP gain.

Trying for the most dramatic entrance possible, Nikolaos shouts." I AM NIKOLAOS WILLAHELM AND AN ENEMY OF THE CULT OF THE DRAGON IS A FRIEND OF MINE."
Nikolaos rushes to the indicated bedroom to the aid of the injured.
Out of Character: = He casts Aura of Vitality with his action and with his Bonus action starts healing those who are injured starting with the damsel in distress, then following up with whoever looks most injured. Rolls for healing each round.
Zarra will stop, just before exiting the door and closing it again. She felt expressed and sheepish though her face mask hide such as the drow says, "Ah, well… Nevermind then. It appears the situation has turned around?" She had worked herself up to charge out to help save the others yet now didn't need to.
