Like the attack of a striking snake Quistines short sword lashes out at the Hermia look alike. *swish-slice!* The creature takes damage although it shows no reaction to the attack and instead remains focused on Hermia.

Oypeen looks to see if that attack on the not-hermia had any effect on Hermia. If she looks fine, he will lay into the not-hermia with his two-handed sword.

Are we able to distinguish between the 2 Hermias? I don't want to lose track of which one is which and accidentally take a swing at the real one.

At this point, I am assuming that the one thats bleeding is the non-hermia

Giovanni is going to hang back, cover the rear and keep a healing spell ready in case somebody needs it...

(You can tell the two apart right now, I'll let you know if it becomes an issue before you hit the wrong halfling.)

Quickly making sure that injuries to the non-Hermia don't hurt the real Hermia (they don't) Opyeen steps forward with a two handed swing. *whish-whiff* His sword misses badly, not what we're used to from the elf.

At the rear of the group Giovanni keeps watch while preparing a healing spell.

Rykken you're up!

Hermia goes for the fingers, attempting to disarm her counterpart by forcing her to drop her sword or lose her hand.

Rykken will cast Detect Magic. He will use that to try to see if he can figure out if there is someone or something in the area that is controlling the image.

Rykken casts Detect Magic and other than the enchanted items of his companions glowing he sees the mirror that the non-Hermia came out of and the non-Hermia glowing as well. (As per the spell only Rykken can see this.)

The non-Hermia quickly takes its swing in turn *swing-whiff*, a miss! While Giovanni looks on the real Hermia attempts to disarm her opponent either by forcing it to drop its sword or by removing the fingers grasping the hilt. *swing-HACK!* The sword along with several fingers clatter to the stone floor.
