How does Becky deal with the elite guards?

Becky creates a distraction and manages to slip inside

Seeing her obstacle would be near insurmountable by brute **** or pure sneaking ability alone, Becky quickly began to develop a plan. She slipped away, falling back from the Gnoll Elites until she felt she was out of earshot, slipping into a little side cave for cover from passing Gnolls.

Inside the small alcove, Becky took out her satchel, rifling through her chemical supplies as she set up a small crafting station on the cave floor. A bit of this powder, stirred carefully over this other extract, then refined alongside some of this final obscure chemical, and she had it made-- an explosive, albeit a small one. It wouldn't be potent enough to deal any real damage, especially not through the Gnolls' heavy armor, but it should create quite a loud boom when she set it off.

She lay out a wick, attaching it to her bomb, making sure to give it plenty of length to buy her time. With the bomb situated in what was, to her best guess, the acoustic center of the nearby cave, Becky downed an invisibility potion, lit the fuse, and made her way back to the iron doors.

Soon enough, an immense 'Boom!' came roaring from down the caves, and as Becky had expected, the elites went running instantly. She only waited a moment before drawing out her lockpicks, hurrying over to the iron door, and sliding them inside.

Though the doors were heavy, they weren't nearly as impressive as they had seemed, and Becky quickly had them open, slipping inside before letting them slide shut behind her.

What does Becky find waiting for her beyond the Iron doors?
