Kufieno creates some illusory copies while Lucian says a prayer. Miana moves up and kicks one of the ogres and Seal takes one down easily! The ogres rise from their positions about the cave and rush to defend their fallen comrade!

Lucian shakes his head, sighing slightly before conjuring a bright light to blind the ogres at the back of the room.
"Desna, bring down your starlight on these heathens!"
Casting burst of radiance (Ref DC 19) on purple, light blue and green. Damage if evil:5d4 ⇒ (4, 1, 3, 1, 3) = 12 Blinded if the save is failed, dazzled instead. Duration:1d4 ⇒ 2.
Evanya joins in on the global assault by calling down a starlight blast.
Ref DC 12 for yellow and orange. Effects explained in the spoiler. Damage:1d4 ⇒ 3+1 pt for each step their alignment deviates from chaotic good.
Usable again in 1d4 ⇒ 4 rounds.
Starlight blast:
Starlight Blast (DC 12) (Su) As a standard action once every 1d4 rounds, a lyrakien can tap into the divine power of Elysium, unleashing a blast of holy starlight in a 5-foot burst. All creatures in this area take 1d4 points of holy damage, plus 1 point for each step their alignment deviates from chaotic good. For example, a chaotic neutral or neutral good creature would take 1d4+1 points of damage, a neutral creature would take 1d4+2 points of damage, and a lawful evil creature would take 1d4+4 points of damage. A DC 12 Reflex save negates this damage. Chaotic good creatures are unaffected by this ability. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Miana will unleash a bevy of powerful strikes against the ogres.
With out if state family, and not sure what survived Seal's onslaught. She will move into the center of the ogres to get her Sacred Stand ability for +2 to AC and to hit, fighting defensively. AC will be 32
Rissi hastes the party! Seal moves into the room swatting down ogres like flies! Lucian and Evanya work together to take down another as Miana kicks another to its doom! Kufieno then leaps forward and takes another out! The rest are quick and easy to mop up.
Out of combat! Just calling it because they don't stand much chance of even hurting you significantly.
You find nothing in their quarters except filth and the greatclubs and rusted javelins they left lying about.
Seal squeezes his way into a foul-smelling cave (although perhaps he doesn't notice this aspect of it) cluttered with an appalling amount of body parts, dead animals, spoiled food, and filth (is there an acceptable number of body parts to keep in a chamber?), but most hideous is what bubbles and cooks in the huge cauldron in the nook to the north and the three aforementioned hags who guard its contents!
You already determined that annis hags have DR/bludgeoning and spell resistance.

Miana darts in ahead of Sealman, hoping to make entrance while the hags are distracted and before the dwarf's bulk makes it difficult to enter. Once in position, she strikes out with a swift kick while getting into a defensive posture. "Well said!", replying to Rissi's battlecry.

"Where is Lamatar? You will answer to us, vile crones!"
His will known, he proceeds to call Desna's favor onto his companions.

As for Evanya, she flies to Kufieno's back and pats him, granting him guidance.
Rissi uses her spell to incapacitate two of the hags while Lucian casts a spell and Miana moves in, although her aim is off.
The hag in the back, the only one not stunned, casts a spell and puts a force cage around those who have not yet entered the room! Barred cage 20x20', shown on the map.

1. Rissi, Miana, and Lucian

Very nice, Rissi! I'll let the frontliner occupy the front seats there, and I'll move after them (I don't wish to take a much desired space if I can help it).

"Feel the justice of Turtleback Ferry and Fort Rannick!", Miana shouts, performing the Iroran Piercing Pummel, hammering repeatedly at the large hag in front of her.

So one of them did make it! Cheater! Lol. Oh well. Thinking about it more, it didn't have line-of-sight to where I was placing the forcecage anyways so it couldn't have done that in the first place I guess.
Miana takes down one of the hags! Kufieno misses. Rissi burns one of the hags but the other resists the spell. Lucian's spell then burns their evil flesh and blinds one of the hags! The blind hag lashes out wildly!

Miana's skin sizzle's as she trips on the fallen hag; thankful for Lucian's protective ward.
Miana then steps over to the hag in the corner and, exhaling her breath, unleashes a powerful flurry of strikes.
5' step, swift action to use ki for an additional attack, using BoF for an additional attack. If blue is dropped before other attacks go off, then direct to red

Sealman, can I let you count how much damage you took, and how much goes to me, please? I'm not sure about all the variations of your AC (size change, BoF, etc.), so I would appreciate if you could do the bookkeeping on that. Thanks!
Lucian holds, not wishing to squander more magical resources when his frontliner teammates are doing so well. With a mere pat on the shoulder, he provides Sealman with guidance. Evanya does the same with Kufieno.
With her first two strikes Miana takes down the hag in the back and then swings her legs around in an arc to catch the last hag in the hug and put her down as well!
Rissi squeaks in delight as the hags fall. She pauses for a moment, though. "I hope the Commander is to be found among the living and that he was not part of the hag..." She suddenly stops, shaken. "Well, let us focusing on finishing our explorations."
Changing topic abruptly she turns her dark hood to Kufieno. "I can't help but notice that you have been growing scales of late. Do you know from where you inherited your dragon's blood, Kufieno? I merely wonder if you share some distant heritage with the skeleton of the beast in the entryway."

Roger, roger Lucian. That last his didn't break the DR on his stoneskin, so no HP damage this fight.
During the investigation, Sealman returns to his normal size. After a quick glance around the room, Seal will re-equip Isoult. Once at the ready, he will guard the entrance as the party thoroughly investigates the Hag's Den.
No magic or anything interesting is found in the hag's den although in moving back to the crossroads you can see that the weather outside has begun to improve.
Kufieno shrugs at Rissi's questions. "I don't know who my parents were, Miss Rissi. I always assumed there was some jinn blood in my past, But I would have never guessed there was dragon-kind, as well." Peering at his wounds, he says. "I have a couple injuries, can I get a bit of healing?"

CLW (Kufieno):5d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 6, 1, 8, 4) + 5 = 29Remember that you can roll the healing yourself and I'll substract the charges. But since you're asking ;)
"Of course, Kufieno" Lucian closes Kufieno's wounds with the help of his trusted wand, then looks around. "We have to find Lamatar. Shall we go south first?" the Varisian boy suggests.
Seeing the weather improve, he smiles. "Well, that's at least something."
A shrine bearing the feral visage of a brutally beautiful monstrous maiden with the head of a three-eyed jackal and the belly of a pregnant young woman leans against the far wall.

A desperate look crosses Lucian's eyes as he beholds the twisted mockery of life Lamatar Bayden has become. "This can't be true..."
Yet a measure of hope still lingers in the young Varisian's heart. The oracle conjures starlight to shine in this darkest lair and blind Lamatar's empty shell.
Casting burst of radiance, Ref DC 19 to be dazzled instead of blinded for 1d4 ⇒ 4 rounds. Damage if evil:5d4 ⇒ (4, 2, 1, 4, 4) = 15
Evanya touches Sealman's shoulder to provide him with guidance.
Rissi speeds the party up as Lucian, in disbelief at the poor fortune of the unfortunate man, hits him with a bright light leaving the now-evil undead dazzled!
Initiative:
1. Kufieno, Rissi, Lucian, and Miana
2. Lamatar Bayden (15 dmg, dazzled 4 rounds)
3. Seal
Miana sighs upon seeing Lamatar's form. "We shall free you from your wretched form.", Miana staring the wight in the face before channeling Irori's blessings to defeat the foe.
