Leaf's arrow shot soars past the party and pierces through the Otyugh's open mouth, flying out the back of the creature and tearing an open hole through it, a hole quickly filled by flame when Caelyn summons up Bokono from behind the creature. Surrounded now, it twitches and flails from Sam's spells, seeking respite but finding none. Grok charges in, whipping his glaive at the tentacles and removing them with two quick strikes and freeing the grappled pair. The sewer monster slumps forward as Grepha flies past to descend on the remaining wererat. The creature reaches up and grabs her before the stinger can make contact, but ultimately such an effort is pointless. Anri leaps up, jumping atop and over the otyugh with incredibly agility, before bringing down a flaming axe cut that bisects the wererat, but a further spin adds insult to injury as she then severs him across the middle from left to right, leaving him quartered.

The remaining, fleeing creature transforms itself, its humanoid form slipping into that of a large rat that squeezes between the bars, and scurries off into the darkness. You hold a moment in case of further attacks, but nothing comes.

A slow, methodical exploration of this section finds a small place for sleeping and a hoard-room which still contains a fair amount of items not recovered or stolen away by the invisible leader. A number of tiny holes pocket the walls, and gazing into them reveals a network of tiny tunnels. While Grepha could slip inside one for investigation, there is no indication which one the leader took - if indeed he took one at all. All you know is that you can't find him in the den any longer.

"Phew!" Senna offers with some enthusiasm, poking a foot into the otyugh's unmoving body. "Urban-man's dungeon indeed."
