Kuublu strikes out with the sceptre but it seems to pass through the horrific form without causing harm, Chiemeka curses as he see's the ancient spirit overcome his sorcery, Ak'kululu hesitates unsure of what to do as Etwa cowers holding the ivory before him.
Pulgil hobbles painfully to the base of the stairs and draws her bow with a little trepidation she nocks one of the arrows they found in the tomb and releases it at the spectral form.
Kuublu see's the arrow coming straight at his face through the translucent spirit but it sinks into the non-flesh and the dead thing screams and turns toward Pulgil with hate in its eyes..

Kuublu drops the sceptre, with nothing else effective he eyes the Assegai arrayed around the ancient Queen. Perhaps they have the powers of the spirits?...
Kuublu will manoevre around and behind the spectre and make his way to grab one of those nine assegai.

With Kuublu no longer between him and the spectre, Chiemeka will either attempt to back up the stairs (if possible) or, failing that, will cast Warding on himself and try to stay alive as long as possible.
With no room to manouvre on the stairs Kuublu follows Pulgils lead and leaps from them down to the hard stone floor, he lands better than her and sprints across the room towards the throne and its silent occupant ringed by the impossibly balanced spears.
Kuublu runs across and snatches up one of the ironwood spears, he is momentarily disconcerted to notice that the shadow he cast the moment he plucked up the spear is still there etched against the stone floor. He turns back toward the stairs.
Pulgil fires again but her arrow goes astray and plunges into the stone wall to quiver there, Chiemeka mutters strange syllables and an eldritch light plays about his form for a moment. Ak'kululu follows Kuublu down to the floor rolling easily to his feet leaving only Chiemeka and Etwa on the stairs....but the spectral form ignores the two and strides down the stairs toward Pulgil and Kuublu its eyes burning with hate.
