Nic could drag Jibril backwards at one hex per turn while defending him with his rapier if you sheath/drop the main-gauche, but you won’t be getting the usual +3 bonus to parry from retreating and it’ll be close combat if they get past your first blows.
Ranar could shift him at two hexes per turn if he drops Thwip and picks him up. Also, Ranar’s shield is still lying in the middle of the corridor. Eabd’s shield is out in the main chamber.
