Okay, since the bulls get a turn before the crazy stuff happens...
One of the bulls slips on the grease and starts to slide. The other one manages to get through without slipping and rushes up to Ixion. Ixion just grabs it by the horns and tosses it to the left, then pulls out his spears and perforates it. It dies.
*Anduin takes a double take, Ignoring Ignatuis casting levitation on Fiora, sending her spinning into the air and the Stone Rhino twirling on the grease, to focus on Ixion turning the other Stone Rhino into a large pin cushion.*
Meanwhile, Keeley transforms into a dragon and unleashes her cold breath on the second bull. It manages to slide away, though it still takes part of the blast of cold air. As it tries to recover, a dark cloud forms overhead, and a bolt of lightning hits it squarely. It is not having a good time.
This has created a hilarious image in my head. We have a halfling, dangling upside down, and spinning while blindly swinging a sword, and somehow landing a solid hit. HALFLING TORNADO!
As Nanna runs away, and Fiora rushes forward to get between them, the gorgon now sees two targets for its breath weapon instead of just one. It exhales a large cone of gray dust that covers them both.
Fiora: 19+8=27 Anduin: 10
Fiora feels fine. Anduin, however, feels herself suddenly turning to stone.
Alas! Alas! Poor Nanna turning to stone... Need to visit a temple after this, I guess...
Also surprising how Ixion kills the first bull in one hit, while we PCs struggle against the other one. Harvey, Keeley, and now Ixion... we seem to have some overpowered NPCs with us!
And by the way @Nimran, what about the greasefire? Did it not work?
Ignatius casts Flaming Sphere at the stone bull. (No other options currently, I guess... unless the greasefire... )
*Fiora runs forward, hovering over the flames to press the attack on the remaining Gorgon. Her anger at being unable to protect Femduin makes her blade glow with blue flame*
*Nanna's running starts to slow down as she starts turning to stone.*
Ooh... Well... I did want eternal life... Just not as... a... a statue... Must...get...my... ugh...
*Nanna grabs a bright red pointy hat and a fishing pole from her backpack, sits down, crosses her legs and casts her rod, a wooden fish forlornly hangs from its line.*
I will... pass... into stone...
*cough*
Proudly... In the clothes and... cultural acroutments... of my people...
*Sob*
Be brave... Younglings... Go on... Go... When you... succeed, please... please... come back and... paint meeeee!
Damn, didn't I tell you guys? You know the old, oooold saying; When a wise dwarf speaks, always listen!.
Sorry for being abscent, spent the last couple of weeks renovating the house for nice pics for our sale. The separation is going sucky as hell and the house renovations is killing me slowly, but only a few more weeks to go then I hope to have at least most of December a bit less hectic. Working like 14 hours per day with this crap and even took 4 weeks from work to be able to focus. So I will remain very offline for some time still. Anyways, here goes..
Vaga looks at his step-mama turning to stone and an icy feeling instantly grips his pulsating heart. "MAMA!" he cries out in agony and despair and goes into a very non-Monk like semi-berzerker state. He rushes the gorgon and deliveres all the stunning blows he can muster.
"Take this you filthy Gorgon"
"..and THIS"
" AND THIS! CA-POW! Tiger-STRIKE! Cut of the Orangutang, smash of the samurai, whirlwind of the werebadger!" the revered and holy strikes of monk teachers follow eachother on a smooth execution.
“Nope!” Harvey says with his same old cheerful expression.
“Sorry,” says Keeley. “But I’m not quite that gifted with magic yet.”
Ixion snorts. “We’re several days out of town,” he says. “And I’m no mule. I’m not carrying a statue all the way back. Besides, I thought that time was of the essence?”
Harvey ponders for a short while, then takes out a seemingly empty cloth sack and throws it over Nanna’s head. The sack swallows her entire stone form, and Harvey puts it away before saying “Done! Just remind me to pull her out later. She’ll be in there for a long, long time otherwise.”

Note to self. Don't get Ixion angry.
The dart pings off the bull’s hide without damaging it.
"Lemme at em!"
You get 'em!
Fiora delivers a meaty hit to the beast’s shoulder, causing it to stumble. It’s still standing, but struggling.
My turn!
*Anduin swoops down on her broom, pulls a club from between her cloak raises it and...*
...hits the ground right in front of the bull, who is now glaring at her very angrily.
*Fiora starts running furiously in mid-air, still upside down to try and reach Femduin.*
I planned that...
Uhm... I'm going to... Uhm...
*Nanna starts running.*
Anduin: 10

Fiora swings, but not being on solid ground is still very awkward for her, and she misses the gorgon. Vaga runs into the fire and attacks.
In his rage, he kills the gorgon.
"We'll fix this. I promise"
And a stony everything else...
Or can any of you return her from stone?"
Ignatius looks at Harvey, Keeley and Ixion, knowing full well that his (PC) friends would be unable to perform such a feat.
“Sorry,” says Keeley. “But I’m not quite that gifted with magic yet.”
Ixion snorts. “We’re several days out of town,” he says. “And I’m no mule. I’m not carrying a statue all the way back. Besides, I thought that time was of the essence?”
