From atop the platform you hear Cal yelling out ""Big Snake! Monkey head! Big Fangs! Attacking!" Followed by a whirling sound (like a sword swriling) and then a loud human grunt as if the wind were knocked out of someone.
SUbdolus you could make it to the platform before the monkeys reach you (you noticed the monkeys hanging on Calhagn's back jumped off when he pulled himself over it. Or you could attempt to drop quickly (in a similar way that Tiberious did) though it will be more risky for you (as your not trained in such acrobatics. Another option would be to fight with your sword or attempt to hide in shadows (most likely impossible).

Hearing the troubling sounds that Cal is making Subdolus heads for the platform, he keeps a close eye for whatever made him react in such a fashion.

Once the axes have returned to him, Tiberious will throw another axe barrage to help Fletcher and then climb up to see what is on the platform. (The monk will move silently and hide in shadows as he will want to surprise anythign battling Cal and Subdolus)

OOC: I'll go ahead and act for the rest of the group and then role initiative (Fletcher, Tiberious, Subdolus and Cal have already acted).
Sogathan throws down his staff which entwines 2 monkeys squeezing them for 2 and 3 pts damage. Zargon slices another in half, while Ermanaric takes ones head clean off.
Initiative: group 1 Ghoul Monkeys/naga 5. -monsters win
7 jump at Sogathan scratching and biting, 3 hit doing 12 pts damage. 2 more bite into Ermanaric for 7, 2 bite Ermanaric for 8 and 3 tear into Zargon for 11. Tiberious faces 5 almost ontop of him.
Subdolus pulls himself up onto the platform and those giving him chase drop back down to the main group. Before him rises a huge constrictor with a monkeys head. His comrad Calhagn is wrapped up and being squeezed to death by this naga. The strange snake beast strikes out at Subdolus opening its mouth far beyond the capacity of a normal primate, revealing 2 sharp fangs of death. The beast hits biting deep into the Half Elf thief for 5 pts damage. Subdolus luckly saves vs poison. Cal is squeezed for 7 more pts damage as the coils constrict tighter (he manages to hold onto his sword but can now only use his one arm).
OK groups counter.

Tiberious will place his magical dagger in his mouth and avoid the approaching ghoul monkeys by flying up to the platform!
He will try to surprise whatever is up there and keep his distance-----but will throw his two magic axes (hoping to stay out of reach of the attacking creature)

Zargon draws his magic sword and hacks at the monkeys as well.
OOC: Sorry - Lost track of lots of stuff after being laid up for a while.

The fighters on the ground kill 4 more (2 by Zargon and one each by Ermanaric and Fletcher), the two attacked by Sogathans staff are finished off, and the two clerics manage to kill one more together. In the scuffle Fletcher (spotted 1-6) notices something shiney kicked up in the dirt (as if it had been burried less then an inch below the soil). from a distance it appears to him to be some sort of unholly symbol with the visage of a dragon or some sort of demon, its eyes look to be made of ruby that....slightly glow with some evilness (the thing makes you shudder). The unholly symbol is in the center of the room (Fletcher wonders if this was what kept Sog's turn from working).
Tiberious flys up to the platform. HE looks upward and sees the shaft he's in continues another 130 feet before turning right out of site, sunlight drifts in from that direction though, and the monk sees water droplets dropping from far above off what appears to be melting ice (perhaps the exposed bottom of a glacier sheet.
He spots in the center of the platform a round disk of metal, and in the middle of this disk a cup with a lid (or perhaps a fancy lantern of some unknown make). Soft pulsating light eminates from this lantern. The snake Naga seems to be protecting it as part pf its body still surounds it. In the center of the coils of the snake is Calhagan with only his head and sword arm sticking out (Cal strikes at the beast twice, but hits only once (2, 19) doing 10 pts damage. Dogging the head of the naga is Subdolus who swings with both his weapons. His scimitar misses with a 7 but his dagger hits for 4 total. Next round you can attack (it took the entire round to activate your dagger and fly up.
Initiative: Group 4 monsters 2 (Group goes first). What would everyone like to do?

Calhagn will continue slashing at the constrictor for as long as he is able.
