Them? Yes. The others . . .

You, Amy and Jane target the 3 highest leveled ones first, and while the others were recovering, the lower 2 next. Hmm, the first 3 were all at the same time so you leveled up with them, so less for the lower ones, as you expected.

However, well, remember the window some slipped in through? Others did the same.

A barbarian came charging at your group wild eyed and wanting to swing his club at you. However, there wasn’t enough room, and he got a thrown dagger in his face.

As he vanished it exposed a thin archer behind him who panicked and shot before he had proper aim. That was his last mistake.

An assassin tried to use them as decoys while going after the hag.

However, when you expect to be attacked, you make plans. Archers look for sniper nests. Mages look for sites that boost their power. Fighters look for places where they can face their foes directly. Assassins and thieves look for ways to sneak up on their main targets by surprise. Scavengers? Screw the fighting! We set traps and let them take out the enemies. We only fight when we have to!

The trap worked better then you expected as the furniture got the assassin as well. He did not survive
