Upon Bree returning to the party and telling everyone what she has just seen our adventurers decide it is time to fight. Autun especially is convinced everyone in the next room needs a bit of killing. Moving stealthily our adventurers make their way down the passage Bree has just returned from to disrupt whatever mischevous magic may be occurring.

Once they enter the room the party is able to make out 5 normal looking derro, 1 derro who is clearly a leader and spellcaster, and one two-headed dog in a cage. They are clearly interrupting some kind of magical ritual in progress. The dog, who we later learn is called Pew-Pew, smells their approach and begins to raise the alarm, but before that can happen our adventurers make their first attack.

Autun and Caius make their way headfirst into the surprised ritual makers putting themselves between their enemies and the rest of the party. While Bree simultaneously eldritch blasts two bolts from her fingers and explodes the head of the derro guarding Pew-Pew. These actions alert the defenders who raise the cry of alarm, which summons a giant ettin from behind the defenders. The ettin races to the front of the defenders and Autun races to meet it. Caius rushes forward as well, positioning himself between a derro and the cage of Pew-Pew that this derro is attempting to open. Kais and Jimjar deliver arrows from their bows, and [[Bree] casts Faerie Fire on 2 of the weaker derro, the derro leader, and the ettin. Only the derro leader manage to avoid its cursed green glow.

The ettin and Autun strike at each other hitting one another multiple times, Caius grapples with the derro attempting to free Pew-Pew while the rest of the party fire their missiles. Autun goes down first from the ettin's deadly blows, and Kais is forced to use his mage hand to stuff a Gourd a Greater Healing down his throat, but upon standing he is then able to bring the ettin down, and in his next immediate blow brings the head derro down as well. Meanwhile Caius has successfully dispatched the derro he was grappling with, and succeeded in relatching the cage of Pew-Pew preventing the fetid canine's escape. Bree explodes the head of another lesser derro with Eldritch Blast.

With the ettin, the derro leader, and three of the lesser derro dead, one of the two remaining derro eats a pygmywort mushroom and escapes into a small hole in the wall. The remaining derro cowers in the corner visibly shaking and crying.

Caius eats his own pygmywort mushroom and chases after the fleeing derro. Seeing this Bree and Jimjar also give chase leaving Autun and Kais behind to deal with the simpering derro, Pew-Pew and the process of looting.
