Okay, here we go on the long-awaited endgame for this chapter of Scourge. I figure two or possibly three rounds passed between Titus' fall and opening the door to the portal room. Tommi, Lionel, and Escella worked to get the doors open, but it's perfectly possible for Viarar to heal Escella (she's at 9) before it happened, assuming Vairar has any spell slots left.
I recognize that it's been a very VERY long adventuring day. Shalendra and the Red Wizard are not at full resources either, but it's still a do-or-die kind of situation. The orc Horde (breaking up into smaller "mobs" to fit through the portals) is from Thay and fresh as daisies (though they don't smell as sweet). They are not going here (the Estate) though - they are using the portal to go "somewhere else".
Let's see if you can stop them! Good Luck!
