So, a little something [@Zverda][@Ryonara][@Lucius Cypher][@Norschtalen][@The Harbinger of Ferocity]. You are free to end combat here and leave the kobold in its self-assigned prison if you so desire. You may also seek to continue the combat to its end. If you do, allow me to roll initiative for the new opponents at the bottom of the stairs just as well. Either way goes. The beasts seem unsure on what to do for now, and remain in the darker reaches of the bottom where the light laid by the flickering lamps of the upper level do not reach. So what I would like to request is for you to tell me how you seek to proceed.
