Continued from Session 135 The Chill of Despair
The Yeti's Last Stand
With their companion Durmen fallen, a grim resolve settled over the surviving adventurers. Their first priority was the remaining Yeti, a beast that had just dealt a fatal blow. But before they could act, Balmaris used a powerful Mass Cure Wounds spell, healing the party, with the exception of Nail and Ricfire, and reviving Durmen from his deathly state. Although Durmen was back on his feet, the trauma of the experience left him with a lingering sense of exhaustion. Durmen, now back in the fight, immediately rejoined the fray. Balmaris, fueled by sorrow and rage, followed up with a powerful Inflict Wounds spell, battering the creature. Simultaneously, Ricfire, ever the opportunist, seized a moment of distraction to land a crippling sneak attack with his shortbow, bringing the beast down for good.
A Desperate Duel
With the Yetis defeated, their attention turned to the two formidable Ice Devils. The battle became a desperate, high-stakes duel. Ricfire, dodging a freezing blast, unleashed a flurry of attacks against one of the demons, his arrows finding their mark and leaving the creature staggering. Seeing his chance, Balmaris successfully wove a potent Banishment spell, sending the weakened fiend back to its icy hell.
The Final Blow
The remaining Ice Devil, enraged by the loss of its companion, focused its fury on the adventurers. But with its numbers dwindling, the party pressed their advantage. Aldran and Durmen, fighting with a renewed purpose, coordinated their attacks, landing a series of punishing blows that drove the fiend to its knees. In a dramatic final turn, Poision Egon delivered the final, decisive strike, his powerful blow causing the demon to dissolve into a cloud of freezing mist.
Aftermath
Exhausted and shaken, the party surveyed the scene of their hard-won victory. The silence was deafening, broken only by the howl of the wind and the knowledge of the great cost they had paid. The adventurers now faced the somber task of deciding their next move in this unforgiving frozen wasteland.
