Balator is able to drop his foe while Uuranx seriously hurts his enemy.
The three lightning blasts from the Azatas and scimitar stroke from Alamin almost drop one of the swordsmen on the right, but not quite.

You may have to take a round to cast the spell, I think "at will" just means they can cast it as many times as they want each day.

Ruling that the Azata just attack and don't buff. John's definition of 'at will' is correct.

Alamin tells you the swordsmen are not evil, although they do appear to be dominated by the mind of a vampire.
The man speaks dully-We serve the master, and the master bids us protect his demesne.

As Baltor leads the party down the stairs he stops for a moment and discovers a devious trap that would have potentially dropped the party into a large pit filled with living bones waiting to rend and destroy.
The flight of stairs descends into the northwest corner of a basement room. The ceiling rises fifteen feet overhead, and several boxes and crates stacked along the south wall reach nearly the same height.
There is an archway to the North and a regular sized door to the East.
To the South is a large single door which slams shut as you finish entering the room.
Balator |
Does Balator notice anything else?
perception: 1d20 + 23 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 23 + 2 = 33
So room with boxes to south. Exits are arch to north, big door to south which just shut, and regular door to east. Is that right?
Carrion Crown CAW |
Baltor thought he saw what may have been a man or man-sized form racing through and shutting the door. The individual must have been quite fast and strong to move so quickly and close the massive door.
You have the room layout correct. The crates and boxes are stacked quite high besides the massive door.
You would expect the air down in the basement to be musty and unpleasant but instead it seems quite fresh with layers of various perfumes and fragrances. Outside of the light from the party the area is filled with pitch black darkness.
Balator |
When everyone is ready, head to the door that just closed. Look for traps and listen for anything on other side of door.
perception: 1d20 + 23 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 23 + 2 = 43
Balator |
Whispered to the party: "Sounds like hideous beasts slavering beyond the door. Give me a nod or thumbs up if you are ready."
Wait for any spells anyone wants to cast. Hastes, summons, etc.
Will open the door when everyone gives a sign they are ready. If anything is summoned, let them enter first.
Carrion Crown CAW |
Balator opens the door:
The stench of powerful chemicals overlaid by blood and heavily rotted corpses fills this large chamber. A large vat of pale yellow liquid sits immediately to the right of the door, just visible from outside the room. Three gaunt bodies, stripped and impaled with wooden stakes, hang from iron crossbars on the south wall.
A circle of darkness fills the center of the room; the sound of gnashing fangs and claws on stone floor issues forth from it.

Alamin again invokes the power of her goddess and the magical darkness shatters under the force of her faith revealing six creatures that appear to be some type of ghoul. Behind them crouches one of the fiends you fought earlier.
The six ghoul-like creatures spring towards the party, but one is hammered by the the summoned elemental as it moves forward.
Balator and Uuranx can take full round actions as the ghoulies come into melee range.
There are five full-strength and one heavily damaged ghoulies. The winged fiend is about 60' away in the SW corner of the room.
