@Kylar: Unfortunately, you know not of how to disable this device (the DC would be ridiculously high if it were allowed)
Sindar surmises with Varian, but suggests that they have the undead ally do, being the expendable one and all.
The unliving flesh of the deadite ages with each hit...
With every hit, you are shunted a separate warp in time, wandering the halls on your own, alone, for over a decade each time, until you come back to the "present", aged over the experience.
After several smashes, the party gets a quick headache and the machine stops, the crystals falling to the ground harmlessly.
The deadite then falls part... unmoving.

The party returns back to Togarin's chamber... and finds it empty, the wood of the table rotted, the books crumbled to dust. However, in arcane mark writing on the wall, a message is left to you.
To my intrepid 'heroes', you have finally freed me from this mortal form, but now I have attained immortality through undeath. As a parting gift, you will be spared as I plan to continue my research and begin my reign over this land in the name of Gluttony. -Togarin
In the corner, is Deaglan's body, just as it was left before you made your final foray.
Taking the corpse, the party returns to town, glad to be free but sorrowed at the loss of one of their own. Going to the Shrine of Battle, the Gorumite priest Brother Eldrast is more than willing to prepare his magics to return a fellow dwarf to the life of the living.
Leaving the body in good hands, the others return to the Greenforest Inn, seeing a small crowd around a familiar face that lays on the floor.
"Damn this head of mine hurts... like empty, something just left it...", Rozimus complains.
"Ugh, yeah, just... feeling weird... I talked to you guys right? Ya look familiar but... I dunno."
"Ugh, yeah, just... feeling weird... I talked to you guys right? Ya look familiar but... I dunno.", Rozimus stammers.
