Quick recap, in bullet form:
-scouring the torture room, the group found a cold iron dagger
-They fought and vanquished a gelatious cube in the hall, picking up 400 gp and a cold iron longsword.
-They tried to open a heavy metal door, setting off a powerful lightning trap three times before giving up.
-They confronted the succubus at the heart of the complex. The battle was joined quickly, Valdir opening up with an arrow. The succubus cast a spell on Aros, promising him great power for joining her, then revealed her true form to attack Argus. Finally, flanked by Argus and Rolf, she took to the air. Fleck cast Fly on Rolf to follow her, and finally he managed to slay her with the cold iron longsword. For a moment, Aros thought himself the heir to her power and tried to attack the party, but came to his senses. Kirran discovered a key on the corpse.
-They took the key back to the trapped door, and opened it easily, discovering the figure locked up inside. Here is where the tavern thread rejoins the action.
