The heroes (Maedhros, Torr, Idky, Squattingbeaver, Lowdog, Aine with Dresher, Stephan, and Yavin, plus Aurora) continued to battle their demonic foes...
'Beaver and Maedhros cast deaths door and cure light wounds on Aine to save the witch's life and bring her conscious again. Meanwhile, Yavin drops his telepathic connection and instead mind thrusts the marilith while erecting a tower of iron will to protect himself as well as Torr and Lowdog. Unfortunately, the priest's mental assault proves ineffective against the demoness. For his part, Torr lay hands on Lowdog.
A vrock tries to telekinesis Yavin, but Torr's holy sword's aura of protection prevents it. Hezrou psychic crushes Lowdog but the tower iron of will protects the totemic warrior. Each of the glabrezu emits a ray of fear, but thanks to Torr's sword, no one succumbs.
After Lowdog savages the marilith, she teleports about 80 feet away from the combat, ordering the other demons to attack in her place. That's when one of the demons succeeds in dispelling the secure shelter. Another demon's psychic crush catches Torr.
Aurora starts shooting a vrock and misses. Yavin engages a nalfeshnee psionically, stopping in its tracks. Idky backstabs that nalfeshnee from invisibility, stunning him out of his gourd. Torr and Lowdog step up to the hezrou and Torr kills one with a power strike. Maedhros and Beaver gang up on Idky's hezrou, bringing it near death.
A vrock swoops on Beaver, sending him to the ground reeling in pain, his cracked ribs now again broken, badly... Another vrock tries to use telekinesis in order to carry off the princess but Stephan tackles Aurora invisibly, changing her weight and preventing her departure. Another vrock tries to teke Stephan off, but he manages to hold on. A fourth vrock jumps on 'Beaver. A hezrou starts teking the princess, and pulls her off toward him. One of the vrocks casts darkness on Torr and Lowdog.
Maedhros magic missiles a vrock, severely wounding it. Aine continues sealing bottles. Torr severly damages a vrock. Aurora empties her clip into the hezrou that teked her, hitting four times and damaging its leg, causing excruciating pain. As Aurora hits the ground (hard) Stephan sees more green light comes off the princess. Yavin mind thrusts the vrock attacking 'Beaver in order to save the downed shaman's life.
Stephan gets beat down by another vrock. Another vrock attacks Yavin. A hezrou grabs the princess and threatens to kill her, but the marilith orders him not to. He defies her and starts ripping into the princess. A glabrezou rushes over the take princess away, and a fight ensues. Nalfeshnee casts symbol of fear, catching Aine, Maedhros, and Yavin, as well as a couple vrock. Now the marilith returns and attacks the rebellious hezrou and threatens any other demon who might try to harm the princess -- death in the Abyss for any who cross her...!
Lowdog rushes out of darkness at the marilith. Another vrock leaves Beaver and goes after Torr in the darkness. As the half-elf flees into the raining night, another vrock rushes after Maedhros and attacks, but Maedhros activates his flaming cloak. One of the hezrou teleports into Yavin's path to attack him and a glabrezou attacks Lowdog. The Nalfeshnee battling Idky unleashes a lightning bolt, but it passes harmlessly through him (illusionary). The marilith coils around the princess and starts floating away.
Lowdog kills the remaining glabrezou.
The vrock on Maedhros teleports over to the globe of darkness to attack the paladin -- that's now three vrocks and a nalfeshnee on the Torr. Idky's demon starts to teke his club away, but the wimpy cleric of Fharlanghn somehow manages to hold on and start floating off with it.
Meantime, Lowdog leaps over to engage Idky's demon.
Yavin's demon whales on him while he's on the ground, but does minimal damage. Idky's demon teleports away toward Yavin's direction. Another glabrezou unleashes mass destruction on Idky, Beaver, and Lowdog, dropping the shaman. Floating above the melee, the marilith attempts to psychic crush Lowdog.
Lowdog kills one of the nalfeshnee. Idky casts sundazzle on the marilith and nalfeshenee but only catches the nalfeshnee, which immediately dispels the effect.
Marilith misses Lowdog with yet another psychic crush. Idky casts cure serious wounds on 'Beaver, bringing him conscious again. Torr airwalks up to the edge of the darkness to see where the marilith is, preparing to rush her.
Marilith ascends to 40 feet as the nalfeshnee psychic crushes Lowdog and fumbles badly. During "negotiations" between Idky and the marilith, Torr rushes the demoness, but she sees him and continues to levitate higher with Aurora in her coils.
Idky rushes toward the marilith via airwalking as well, offering his demon slaying club in exchange for the princess. The sole remaining vrock (Torr killed the others) rushes at the paladin, but Lowdog shoots arrows at it. The nalfeshnee, afraid of Idky, psychic crushes the cleric and misses. The marilith ascends further, and Torr and Idky follow.
Nalfeshnee psychic crushes Idky, nearly killing him. The cleric retreats. Torr attacks vrock's wing, sending it plummeting to the ground 60' below.
'Beaver casts dispel magic on marilith, blasting all her and the nalfeshnee's spells. They all start to plummet and the marilith panics and teleports away. The nalfeshnee also ports. Torr misses the falling princess, but breaks her fall a little against his shield. Lowdog jumps up to try to catch Aurora, but despite his best efforts, the impacts brings the princess near death.
'Beaver casts deaths door on princess. Lowdog goes after Yavin. Meanwhile, the hezrou that's been savaging Yavin teleports back and grabs the princess after pushing 'Beaver out of the way. The wounded vrock knocks out Idky before Torr kills in and engages the hezrou.
This last demon attempts to psychic crushes Torr but fails, at which point the paladin and shaman slaughter it.
'Beaver starts healing folks.
Lowdog reaches Yavin, who is afraid of him. Lowdog casts remove fear on the cleric of Celestain and the pair head back to the rest of the party.
Maedhros gets a visitor, as the marilith attempts to use telekinesis on him, but the half-elf's free action stone prevents it. The demoness encourages Maedhros to surrender, but he lightning bolts her, damaging her badly and destroying all nearly all of her items -- including five of her six weapons (all but one were magical!). On the verge of discorpeating and returning to the Abyss, the demoness teleports away.
As 'Beaver assumes beaver form, one of the formerly-feared vrocks appear in the midst of the main party. The demon knocks out Idky before Torr slaughters the fiend.
The second formerly-feared vrock tries to use telekinesis on Maedhros, but he can't. Maedhros tries to lightning bolt but doesn't penetrate the demon's magic resistance. Maedhros casts fly on Lowdog, but the demon teleports away back to near the main group. The demon skulks up on the party, but thanks to his previously-cast perfect perception and nature's eyes, 'Beaver sees the demon easily and invokes his called lightning. The blast stuns the fiend and Torr finishes it off.
