Shad strikes down one of the screaming devilkin, but the other two members of the group are incapacitated, and the remaining monsters move to attack them. They leap into the air and glide towards their prey on ragged wings.
One of them crashes into Hasgraek and strikes him with a barbed tail. The other leaps at Aupti but has to pass Shad's halberd to do it; it corkscrews through the air to avoid her, but cannot achieve true lift-off.
The horrible shrieking is almost unbearable. Hasgraek's ears begin to bleed, and Shad's resolve wavers. Aupti just barely pulls himself together.
On the wall, many of the militia fall to their knees holding their ears as well, but enough of them stand true to hold off the mindless undead mobbing the walls.
Spoiler: Summary
Show
ACTIONS: #3 attacks Hasgraek and hits with an 18, for 4 dmg. #1 attacks Aupti and hits with a 24 for 7 damage -- however, Shad gets an opportunity attack on it (at disadvantage). If she kills it that attack won't happen.
Ceaseless Screaming incapacitates Shad, and Hasgraek fails again. Failing twice in a row, Hasgraek is deaf until a short rest and takes 3 more damage, but is not incapacitated any more and can no longer hear the shrieking. Aupti saves.
