Okay, it seems I've waited in vain for the remaining players to post. So... you win.
You beat the remaining Cambion despite the prisoner suddenly turning on the party as they realize she's a succubus. But the party still prevails.
In one of the cells on the west wall is a prisoner dressed in rags. It is a goblin. In fact, Kauldron recognizes the goblin as his former mentor, Harfle. The poor gob has been tortured and has many wounds and broken bones. He speaks with a pained whisper, explaining to Kauldron how he was captured in another battle after Kauldron had disappeared. The rival goblin clan had continued raiding in the area and Harfle himself was captured in one battle. He since discovered that the rival clan had been stealing from those in the area and transporting it via planar portals to devilish agents like the Cambions who are working for Redblade. That is how Redblade sells things so cheap that he can undercut all the competition: He's selling stolen goods! Harfle will be happy to be free of this place and see if he can find his way home again someday. But he wants Kauldron to have his armor and his short sword which the demons took off of him when he was captured. Redblade even took his holy symbol away but Harfle notices it hanging around Kauldrons neck already and he smiles a toothy grin.
He advises the party to check the next cell over, where they find a secret door leading to the hidden treasury of Redblade (as follows):
-Parcel 3-5= 380 GP worth (250 gp ring, 130 gp)
-Parcel 4-5= 470 GP worth (4 x 100gp gems, 70 gp)
-Parcel 4-6= 420 GP worth (400 gp, 200 sp)
-MI Parcel 4-4= +1 Goblin Totem Short Sword (lvl 2, FRCG), +1 Dazzling Plate Armor (lvl 4, AV2) for Kauldron
-MI Parcel 4-6= +1 Shimmering Cloth armor, +1 Brooch of Shielding, for Dang't
-MI Parcel 4-1= Cat Tabi (lvl 8, AV) for Hrav
On the way back out of Redblades fortress, some of the party notice that the body of the last shapeshifter to be killed is no longer where it fell. In fact, the pool of blood from its wounds is not even there any longer. You suspect that it managed to use its shapeshifting to assume the shape of a very wounded version of itself to fool the group until they had moved on.
Captain Azrael's crew has finished loading the crates of trade goods from the warehouse by the time the party makes it back to the Bloody Wake. After an uneventful sailing back to Bacarte, Azrael uses his contacts to sell off the trade goods and split the money with the crew and mostly the party. (This money is the source of the time gp for the whole adventure that is detailed below.) After that, the party are invited to stay on the Bloody Wake any time it is in port. Captain Azrael thanks the party for their assistance in all of the efforts to restore his ship to him and take revenge for all of them on Redblade. After that, he drifts off towards the bar to buy a round of drinks with his share of the profits from the voyage.

Any questions, corrections, end of adventure RPing, or anything else... go ahead and post, then you're free to go your separate ways. Thanks for the good adventure. Sorry you didn't end up Co-Captain's of the Bloody Wake. That was going to be in my next adventure where I wrapped up all the threads dealing with Redblade and some other consequences from earlier MMC adventures. After needing to end this one like this though, I'm assuming too much of the MMC is burned out and needing to go elsewhere for awhile.
