Your killing blow lifts the Urgaroh and sends it tumbling backwards in a ragged somersault to fall ten feet away in a broken, untidy heap. Its ruined remains spontaneously ignite and burn fiercely, giving off a choking black smoke.

Above the noise of the wind that rushes through the shattered glass dome, you hear angry cries and the stomp of booted feet. The Drakkarim have regrouped and are storming the stairs once more, their numbers swelled by a score of Giaks and Hammerland bandits. Driven by instinct, you pick up the Urgaroh’s crystal rod which lies near your feet, and you rush to the head of the stairs. You can feel the evil power that is held within the rod’s slender shaft, but you are unsure how you may unleash it upon the enemy who are racing up the stairs.
