Still using standard operations, having Yuki scout ahead and using your passive at-will senses (Detect Magic etc.)?

Did it at least budge when I tried to open it?

The statue definitively above your dragging limit. Yes, I checked the tables for that. YOU CAN NOT HAVE A MEANINGFUL CAMPAIGN IF STRICT ENCUMBRANCE RECORDS ARE NOT KEPT!

Do we get a hint as to how much extra encumbrance we need?

Unless you have some way to calculate the weight beforehand (such as through applicable knowledges), the only way is to try.

Surprise round. Karlat and his minions get to roll initiative and act as they were readying their actions, everyone else is unable to act.

Applicable knowledge to these creatures is Knowledge (the planes), DC 18.

Initiatives:
Grave Elemental A: 7
Grave Elemental B: 19
Grave Elemental C: 6

Karlat activates the following Commanding Presences (apply to everyone within 30 ft)
+1 ranged attacks
+1 damage against wounded creatures
+1 armour class

All bonuses are morale

Saethwr used anklet of translocation to skip out of range.

Those are grave elementals, warped earth elementals that dwell in and haunt graveyards. They are very hateful and aggressive monsters that pound any living being they come across into the ground.

They possess a powerful tremorsense enabling them even to detect invisible things, and can effortlessly swim through earth and stone.

Their most horrible ability is the ability to sink their foes into the ground, summoning bony arms to pull them into an early grave where they lie in suspended animation until someone excavates them. This seems to be what is happening to Karlat right now.

The redhead is obviously a fey-blooded pomenysh - one whose fey heritage is stronger than most of the regular ones. People of her blood are known for being talented musicians and able to set things on fire they set their eyes on.
Nothing points at her being undead, or being planetouched beyond her heritage.
Her injuries are lethal unless swiftly cared for.

Flip on Vigour aura, then burn two cure minor wounds spells (8 healing each) to get Saethwr back up to 33 hp (1 off max).

Burn a 3rd cure minor for 8hp healing on Dman

Forgot to mention the loot that was buried in grave soil (2,113gp, 3,287sp, 201cp).

The status Yuki moved also seems to be valuable, but is so heavy that you would need to drag it, and getting it up the well shaft will also be nontrivial.

The statue turns out to weigh 450lb and could be carried by Niko as a heavy weight, if he would be willing to reduce the rest of his encumbrance to 10lb or less.

Should probably just move the statue a bit closer to the well and come back for it later. Fairly sure it's not going anywhere this week.
Hmm.

Pretty sure we just camp in the chapel for the night?
Hmm.
