With their lungs about to burst from lack of air, gravity finally took over, dropping the heroes into the center of a large octagonal room...the welcome chamber of the Tower of Acererak.
They were immediately attacked by a small army of undead: Putrescent zombies, that explode when killed, flaming skulls, and flying couatls. Before they knew it, the true horror emerged: 8 lich vestiges rose up out of the floor and combining their powers, launched a ball of hellfire fury that exploded on top of the heroes, dealing 80 points of damage to each of them. On top of that, 40 points of ongoing damage continued their pain.
Fortunately for the heroes, all of the creatures were minions, meant to pose little challenge other than a distraction so the lich vestiges could inflict such severe damage.
Everyone ended the encounter bloodied, and Leenia even went down, below zero HP, at one point.
