Mac and Monthor put their blades to work and in a few seconds all of the skeletons are destroyed. Mac also takes a swing at the Lich, who doesn't seem to mind as the old woman screams in pain again. (I haven't figured in anyones DR, so if you've got some be sure to take it off.
Jass casts his Greater Dispel at the Demon in an attempt to send it back to its home plane, it seemed to flicker a little but something is keeping the creature from being sent back to its home plane.
Tratain hits M'ri with a Dimensional Anchor to keep the Lich from fleeing.
Vedik stands dazed, perhaps by the Disintigate just cast at him? Save from last round.
Belkior casts his healing spell hitting those he chooses, the old woman looks a little better.
Dwight thinks that the Old woman is really the Lich in Disguise, and fires an arrow at her that strikes her right in the heart, she slumps over unmoving and dwight has one horrified heartbeat until the body vanishes. Everyone Spellcraft DC 35 to Highlight to display spoiler: {From the way the body vanished the old woman was a conjuration spell, though one you have never seen before and not a real woman.}
The rest of Dwights Arrows strike the Demon and make it a little mad.
The Demon Strikes back at Dwight. It attempts to bite him (AC 33 for 22 Damage). And tries to hit him with its claws. (AC 40 and 34 for 17 and 16 Damage)
M'ri looks a little unhappy now that her skeletons and other summons are gone, and a cloud of Mist springs up covering where she was just standing.

Jass wonders, but there are many magics out there, and in a thousand years, it could be the lich knows a couple that Jass does not. Eh, either way, the moving skeleton and her pet demon is going down.
"How about the direct approach?", the sorcerer asks rhetorically, as he sends a ray of Disintegration into the demon.

Shaking off the worst of the disintegrate, Vedik ponders, perhaps a bit too long.
He draws a rod, and uses it to cast a quickened spell on the mist, trying to dispel it. Unfortunately he is not able to overcome the lichs magic.
"Tha demon is a distration, get tha lich." he calls to the team.

Barely missed by the bite (AC 34 when hasted), Dwight feels the demon is more than a mere distraction as he gets slapped around by the claws (dmg 33).
Dwight wishes he could follow Vedik's call, which all depends on if the demon still stands in his way.
If the demon still stands, he floats back 5' (out of reach) and fires arrows into it's torso having no other options.
--- Should the demon be disintegrated by Jass, Dwight double times it to G13.

Jass Casts his Disintigrate at the Demon but it manages to shrug off most of the spell. (Saved)
Between Vedik and Belkior the Mist is disipated.
Dwight fires his arrows at the Demon and Manages to stagger it for 1 round.
The Nalfeshnee Swings at Dwight who is still in range and hits him with an Awesome Blow (Hits CMB 44 for 20 Damage, Dwight is slammed into the Door behind him and knocked prone)
From the Mist the Knights see another Demon who attempts to rip apart Mac and Monthor. The Creatures tries to claw and bite Monthor but the Dwarfs defenses are to strong so it switches to the Big Minotuar. (Mac is Hit Once for 18 Damage).
M'ri looking a bit worried now Puts Vedik in a Maze again as he seems to be the one calling the shots.
Movement: One resolute 5' step towards M'ri if the new monster falls.
Attack Effects: If the monster falls - Free Indimation Check (Dreadful Carnage) = 52 vs (10+ M'ri's Hit Dice + M'ri's Wisdom modifier) to render M'ri shaken, plus 1 round for every 5 by which the target is exceeded.

"The demon is a distraction, get the lich", Jass mimics sarcastically as Dwight goes flying. The light show about the demon is continuing to glow and there is only a incorporal sorcerer and halfling cleric in the demon's way.
"And since Belkior is concentrating on the lich, it's my job to keep the demon looking at me." Jass lets the demon have it with a Cone of Cold (aiming to avoid Belkior) and then follows up with a Quickened Magic Missle (which only affects incorporal beings)

Dwight is taken aback by his pounding, gives the demon a frighteningly cheerful halfling smile as he loads his bow again. A small dribble of blood is seen dripping from his nose from the wall impact. "Time to know what it feels like when a porcupine rolls on you."

Mac swings away at the Demon in front of him, opening large gashes across the beast.
Vedik is lost in the Maze spell.
Monthor Teleports himself behind M'ri
Tratain steps up to try and finish the Demon but can't seem to connect with it.
Jass Hits his Demon with a Cone of Cold which the beast takes full on, he looks angry, but only for a second as Dwight hits it with several more arrows and the beast falls over and dissipates.
The Demon looking like its on its last legs swings away madly at the Minotaur that hurt it so badly. It his Mac with one of its Pincers for 19 Damage, The Bites him for 16 Damage. The hit Claws him twice for 18 Damage and 18 Damage.

Dwight grins, happy with himself as one demon falls and another is request to become a pin cushion. As his loads his bow and takes aim, he recalls how this is similar to how Dwight joined the group of Grey Knights to begin with -- battling demons (though the group was also morphed into demons) at the time.
Knowing the distance is going to be great, Dwight holds onto hope. (if demon falls, then attacks are another -4 to hit M'Ri)

The dark taur is gladdened to see the myriad of magic missile scores and arrows. Mac attempts to stomp 10' through hopefully fallen and dissipating demon to flank M'ri with Monthor. If the move (at speed 60') leaves room for it, he takes a swing at M'ri for good measure - 1:[41|miss] - or not...

Given previous caution, Mac uses the sides of a sack as mittens to get anything on the floor (barring the bones) into the bottom of said sack. "Time enough for countin' when the damage dealin' is done. Where will the crystal be, do you think?"

Jass comes out of his self-examination and nods. "Let us meet your pet lich, then", he says with a glimmer of his old humor back.
"Do we teleport out of here, or are we going to wind our way through the undead deathless horde in the foyer?" Jass is all for teleporting, or more accurately, Dim Dooring 3 times to taxi the group back to the underground vault where the Gray Knights and Crimson Shields first met each other. From there, they will be free of the horde and castle, and able to go where they need.

the group has in hand 5 of the 8 needed soulgems. 1 is almost certainly with the second dread lord, Bas Anut, who spoke of aidin the Knights in thier first encounter. Another is probably in possession of Pindar, who fled from one of the last fights, but his whereabouts are a complete mystery and the last has to be connected in some way with the Draco lich as that gem was also never found after battlig the dead dragon. Of all of them, only the location of Bas Anut is known, he waits within the Parthanon north of the mansion where the knights are currently about 700' away. Assuming of course that he is indeed still waiting.
thr group seems to be inclined to follow Dwight's idea and head to the Parthanon. The devil is always in the details, as Jass reminds the group of the horde in the foyer, not a force any seem inclined to want to deal with on any level. the Sorceror suggest Dimensional Door to the mausoleum where the two groups first met and journey out from there....
Dwight hp 207/218, ac 33/25/34)) Monday April 4th, 2011 9:49:30 PM
"Anyone have a locate object ssspell? The gemsss are not findable, but other thingsss likely are -- sssay sssomething Pindar wasss wearing." Dwight offers this up for thought hoping someone has that spell.
OOC: This would be great witch spell, but sadly not.

With Monthor singing an old dwarven marching tune, Jass takes that as agreement to his plan.
He Dim Doors the Crimson Shields to the entrance to the Mausoleum, DDs back, and DDs a third time with the Gray Knights, thus having the group bypass the horde. "The advantage to a sorcerer", he grins.
"You Gray Knights know the path to the Parthenon", he jibes, "lead on, McDuff!"

The halfling cleric retches after being teleported by Jass. Despite how many times it has happened, Belkior's stomach never quite agrees with the idea of suddenly being moved to another location in the Wold.

To the Parthanon Thursday April 7th, 2011 10:52:11 PM
The group moves quietly and fairly quickly to within view of the Parthanon. To the party's right in the ancient and twisted grove of trees that was once a beautiful orchard, they can still hear Plyf's voice locked in song. She still sounds strong and sure the the melody is one of love and fills all with a sense of a greater belonging. Ahead, about 50' lie the first of the 20 marble steps leading up and into the massive parthanon. Still completely shielded on it interior by a grey swirling mist. the party is about halfway between the north and south end, approaching from the west. The building itself measures nearly 200' from end to end and is 50' wide and the group already knows that once inside that grey wall of nothing the structure is completely open to the sky. they also know that one of the Dread lords and his undead guard are somewhere within. An undead lord who self reported wanted to help, but one of course must consider the source of such claims.
It has been 30 minutes from the end of the last fight. Please note the time lapse to all spells

"The remaining Lich may be desssparate by now and fled to get our friendly Lichesss," which Dwight says with complete sacrasm. "If thisss isss the cassse we definitely ssshould focusss on the one that fled. I don't trussst the other, but not attacking him initially might make our battle easssier -- for now," he adds.

Jass waits for Mac, Monthor, and Tratain to lead and strides confidently after them, his dead eyes focused to confront this "friendly" lich.

Inside Parthanon Monday April 11th, 2011 9:00:21 PM
The group moves and ascends the steps unmolested and passes through the misty veil and into the Parthanon. 4 great bronze braziers glow with a dull yellow and green sick smoke. Suspended in midair about 30' up and spaced evenly down the center of the great structure. To the north stands the lich self identified as Bas Anut 100' away. About 50' stand 4 large skeletal creatures. next to Anut stand two more. At the opposite end in the south stands the lich the group was fighting not so long ago, also 100' away and another cadre of 4 large skeletons stand between the group and him. He, unlike Bas Anut, does not have any personal skeletal guard. Within the Parthanon, the outside world is plain as the bright day, but the sweet song that Plyf sings, cannot be heard. However other, more disturbing sounds do drift in on the wind. The distant sound of cracking bone and ripping flesh. Oily feathers beating hard against the wind. The slow creaking of rope pulled tight over a dead piece of wood.
Nothing within moves, it is apparently up to one of the living to act first.

Dwight expects a portion of this to be an illusion, but isn't going to just stand and do nothing. He loads his bow, and moves 10' to the side of the large parthanon awaiting a word of caution from his comrades who might identify the trap/illusion.
If nothing is said suggesting he not (and he waits as he slides over loading his bow), he fires before the giant vulture arrives. He aims at the Lich the group fought recently, unsure if he is actually there.
(OOC: I'm guessing only one attack -- as I need to know what happens before I fire again.)

Jass doesn't hesitate, the plans of the encounter already identified. He strides maybe 10 feet beyond Mac, Monthor and the others, and speaks, pitching his voice to be heard throughout the Parthenon.
"You know our mission and you know what we intend to do. The last three Soul Gems are with you two, the only two liches left. Surrender yours and the Dracolich's Soul Gems, or we will fight you for it."
Jass' black eyes watch the two liches carefully, assessing his use of diplomacy and intimidation equally. Any information the dead spellcasters may reveal could be used by the heroes...

Mac remains by Monthor's side -- ready to swing if they somehow find a target in reach. Readied Attack:[46|53]. He makes no attempt to ruin Jass' parley, and the opponents are at too great a distance for him to attempt his own intimidation - not that he has thus far found anything in this place that feels fear.
