Foolishly underestimating the group, the balor teleports in, summons dretches and teleports back home, not wanting to bother with the party (or, to be accurate, not wanting to risk the party getting in a lucky shot).The balor's is now known to the party and as such he can be scried.  The party may still be out of their league, but there is a chance they can pull this off.  This balor  (who is named K'zall) has the bad habit of keeping his +1 vorpal greatsword hanging on a mantle within easy reach.  However "easy" reach does not mean "instantly".  K'zall will wait a day after the party has dispatched the dretches, and try again with a summoned nalfeshnee.  If that does not work, he will attend to matters himself.  However this gives the party a two day window to go on the attack.K'zall's habits and tactics can be known to the party if they make a Knowlege (planer) check of DC 20.If the party suceeds the Book of Names is finally theirs to hand over free and clear.Next: Destrachan!edit: crumbs.  I didn't read the previous posts.  I editied this one to tie it in.</blockquote>
