In the second floor battle, Dignan and Torkunde did the most of the damage to the bone devils and grey render zombies. The spellcasters were mostly thwarted by spell and various elemental resistances. Scallapronon cast his second grease spell to trip a bone devil and then Amadou used a flame strike to incinerate one zombie, to seriously burn a second and to ignite Scalla's web and two grease patches which mostly had no effect on the bone devils. Adwona summoned a toddler Blue Dragon who was mostly useless save for its lightning breath weapon. But at the at the near conclusion of a very tough battle against grey render zombies and bone devils on the second floor, the war advanced to the third floor of Fort Karak. Amadou once again used Rock to Mud to clear a path to the third floor. Despite the tremendous damage Amadou had done with three rock to mud spells, the fortress, in defiance of all physics, remained standing. But the damage that Nyambian druid did do, caused the remaining render zombie to plummet more than 20 feet from the second to the ground floor and then to be pummeled by falling debris and mud. After failing to distract with an illusion of itself, the second floor's remaining bone devil skulked around invisibly only to reveal itself upon climbing Amadou's Rope of Climbing. Amadou retracted the rope and cause the devil to plummet more than 40 feet to the debris at the ground floor. Adwona flew around the balcony on the third floor as the party used the rope of climbing to gather in a room on the opposite side of the fortress from Adwona. Dignan carefully searched the door only to find it unlocked and not trapped. The rogue did spot more devils through the keyhole beyond! Dignan backed away in silence with a look of clear alarm on his face. Amadou made gestures indicating that the party not waste time and resources on the third floor and instead advance to the fourth and final floor. The door was immediately thrown up on to reveal three new bone devils and an ice devil! Whatever happened next, it would be violent.
