The Wayfarer's Inn

You follow the corridor for quite some time, passing one other side corridor on your way that leads to a dead end. All along the way, you find evidence that the gholle moved along here more than once: Bits of shaggy fur, feces, a few old bones here and there. After several twists and turns, you come to a length of corridor that stretches ahead into the darkness once more. Will you continue along?

Sol says "This seems to be the creatures main route. I am in favor of going forward. What say the rest of you?"

"Yes, let's not backtrack now"

says Ahi. Kherim follows in the front with Sol. Ahi closes the rear.

You follow the corridor until it mkes a sharp turn and circles backwards. After you rounded the corner, you suddenly hear something from before you. It sounds like something's approaching you in a quick pace, the sound still muffled but quickly becoming louder. From what you can hear, it's either a many-legged creature or several two-legged.
What are you doing?

If they're at the end of the long corridor, it might be good if we set ready for long range attacks. Perhaps even an area spell that doesn't backfire. Better than letting them close in.

Sol says "Eilkhan, why don't you move behind me?" as he stands ready to fight with the magic warhammer in his right hand and his dagger in his left.

Gaderon, further back in the group, prepares a magic missle spell. He is ready to let it loose as soon as he sees the new enemies (assuming it makes sense, of course).

"Sure thing, Sol. You guys won't see me but I am here, nonetheless." The rogue activates her ring of invisibility and waits behind Sol.

From out of the dark emerge two giant scarab beetles, each of them the size of a cow. As they get closer, their eyes start to glow with a reddish light.

OOC: Each of you has one free action since you were waiting for this, although only Sol, Kherim, Eilkhan, and Gaderon have a good view of the scarabs.

Gaderon will let loose with his magic missle spell aimed at the first scarab beetle.

Sol will prepare himself to battle the beetle with the magic warhammer, hoping to learn more about it's true capabilities. He will duck his head if someone behind him gives him a warning that they are shooting something at the beetles.
