Domarc continues to back off, moving through the door. "We are looking for Pafthinel," he says again.

Only Domarc, having cast Comprehend Languages, can understand what the creature mutters, seemingly more to itself rather than in reply, as it crawls to the doorway.The thing has the shape of a woman that would stand nearly sixteen feet tall if it rose up to full height, with skin the steely blue color of the sea.

"By all the Hells..."
Since it looks like I may go first and I might be away from my computer for most of the rest of the day, I'll put my action here.
Watching carefully for any sign of aggression, Mordred waits to unleash a Fire Bolt until the creature appears to be attacking, but will not hesitate once she makes the first move.
"We mean you no harm! Perhaps we can help each other find him? If you let us speak to him first, you can do with him as you wish thereafter."
So that is a Readied Fire Bolt. He wants to be sure she means us harm before casting.
If he is damaged, Mordred will use Hellish Rebuke as a Reaction.
You point your finger, and the creature that damaged you is momentarily surrounded by hellish flames. The creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. It takes 3d10 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

You hurl a mote of fire at a creature or object within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d10 fire damage. A flammable object hit by this spell ignites if it isn’t being worn or carried. This spell’s damage increases by 1d10 when you reach 5th level (2d10), 11th level (3d10), and 17th level (4d10).Quote:

The door remains open. Vhezyen is just inside the room and Domarc is right behind him, more or less in the doorway.

A brief vision flashes through Vhezyen's mind. He's seen this moment before, in his mind's eye. Perhaps a dream.
First man in.
Vhezyen stands in between the jinn and the door, blocking it from leaving. Without taking his eyes off of the encroaching creature, his back to the doorway, he shouts "Close the door! Now!"
Playing off of the Divination Wizard and the Portent ability here. Assuming Domarc is out, close the door. Not sure how, but I know Felor at least can do it.

"...and you, whatever you are, you are a distraction, nothing more!"
Vhezyen and Domarc, make Dexterity saving throws, please.

"Well, actually -" Domarc begins to reply, before he tries to dodge out of the way. I didn't mean "well" like that, he thinks.

The column of water smashes into Domarc and Vhezyen like a load of bricks, slamming them back into the pool chamber. The jinn steps out of the doorway and unfolds to her full sixteen-foot height, sinuous and terrifying in aspect.
For the second time today, the mud creatures flee as a group, back out the way they came.
Party, you may take your actions.

"Are we fighting?" asks Zangua, thinking that the mud-creatures might have the right idea.
