Torinn's divine shield helps to buffet the blow intended for Folka, and he then breahtes lightning on the water before him. Though no lightning appears to strike the kraken itself, the beast still shrieks as it is electrocuted by the current anyway. The air smells briefly of seafood before Torinn steels himself with holy resolve, then leaps directly at the kraken, barely noticing a slap from one of the kraken's tentacles, which bruises his side through his steel plate. However, the hit is enough to cause his slice to err, as it is barely deflected off the kraken's exterior. Summoning forth more strength, divine energy crackles around the kraken as the paladin brings down his blade once more, this time attempting to freeze the kraken with cold energy, channeled through his blade. However, the stalwart aberrant resists the magic, though some of its tentacles are coated with frost, and appear to move sluggishly.
The kraken sinks slightly into the water, and a massive whirlpool erupts all around it, even splashing across the bridge as all of the adventurers are caught within and cast about. Quick as lightning, the two largest tentacles the fiend possesses wrap themselves around Torinn and Myn, and the warlock is plunged directly into the water, and Torinn and his moutn are both hurled bodily at the bewildered eladrin, who is knocked over from the force of the dragonborn projectile. The dwarven boots are all that keep Torinn on his feet. Incidentally, the corpse of the speaker is also flung to the side of the bridge.
As Myn regains his senses, he finds himself underwater, being held by one of the kraken's tentacles. Though the water current here is strong, somehow the warlock manages to not get pulled even further away from his "friends."
Torinn uses righteous shield, preventing the damage to Folka and gaining a +2 power bonus to attack rolls until the end of his next turn.
Torinn uses virtue, spending a healing surge to gain 21 temporary hit points.
Torinn uses dragon breath, which misses the kraken but subjects it to his sanction. It also deals 6 lightning damage to the kraken because of environmental damage.
Torinn charges the kraken, and it hits with tentacle slap as an opportunity attack for 15 damage. His melee basic attack with holy smite, which misses for 8 radiant damage.
Torinn spends an action point, gaining a +8 bonus to damage rolls for the attack from Sariel's resourceful presence. He uses chilling smite, which misses for 14 frost damage and the kraken takes a -5 penalty to damage rolls until the end of its turn. Since the attack hit no targets, Torinn gains 7 THP, slightly higher than his remaining value of 6.
The kraken uses whirlpool, hitting everyone but Torinn for 13 damage, actually CRITTING Rutger for 24 damage. The damage on most is reduced to 8 damage, and Rutger takes only 14 damage. Torinn takes 2 damage (reduced from 7). Note that Myn is slid to an adjacent square by this effect.
The kraken spends an action point! The kraken uses crushing tentacles, hitting Torinn and Myn for 19 damage (reduced to 14). Both are grabbed by the kraken (escape DC 16).
As its first minor action, it uses fatal plunge on Myn, which hits for 7 damage (reduced from 12) and slides him 3 squares to elevation -2. Myn is now grabbed and being held underwater by the kraken. The kraken takes 7 radiant damage from Torinn's righteous radiance, and this allows Torinn to heal Myn for 7 hit points from healing radiance.
The kraken uses fling, sliding Torinn to J-3. Both Torinn and Sariel are hit for 6 damage and fall prone. Torinn uses his boots to avoid falling prone.
At the start of Myn's turn, the kraken rolls terribly and misses him with the whirlpool attack, but suffers 7 radiant damage from Torinn's divine sanction.

Notes
The edges of the bridge are difficult terrain.
The water is a 5-foot drop off of the edge of the bridge and is of unknown depth. If you are for any reason in a water-filled square you are swimming.
The summoned kraken has threatening reach. It can make opportunity attacks against creatures within 3 squares.
In a stenous situation, a creature holding its breath underwater must make a DC 20 Endurance check at the end of its turn during any round in which it took damage. If it fails, it loses a healing surge.
If you begin your turn in the kraken's whirlpool, it makes a no action attack against you. On a hit, you take some minor damage and are slid 2 squares. All of the squares in the whirlpool are difficult terrain for non-aquatic creatures.
