As the group spent an extra day beating their heads against a wall trying to understand this ancient ritual. What made this tricky as the magic is ancient and far more complicated then it needs to be, the arcane equations and old elvish words that needs to be recited is intense. The rest of the group find themselves staring blankly at the scriptures, but Vomer it finally clicks for you after reviewing and breaking down the notes. All of your heads hurt as this knowledge is hard to retain but Vomer is confident he will be able to perform it.
The group prepares what they want and gain a new day’s rest. The battle will commence as the army has gathered. Thanks to your persuasion of the different factions, The conclave army numbers nearly 100, including centaurs, elves, half-elves, and a few nymphs, pixies, satyrs, treants, and unicorns. The strategy is that they will be doing various ambush attacks followed by quick retreats rather than direct assaults on large numbers of enemies. This draw the enemy away from the gates and into the forests. You see the massive army of Spriggans quickly barraged by arrows, tree arms, tiny pixie stabbing, and hooves. The factions are not too coordinated as this is the first time they are working together, but the enemy is drawn away from the gate. The unicorns you are riding quickly jump through a rainbow circle and arrive at the gate. The portal to the Fellnight Realm is a small hillock ringed with pale white mushrooms. The unicorns nods. “Please hurry. The Conclave will not hold them for long.”

Jang can hardly believe what he sees and feels.
He says more to himself to than to others.
“The forces of life and nature are here to fight with us against an evil that wants to corrupt this land. We all have to do everything we can to stop this faith queens unbelievable machinations of distruction! We fight for our families and fight for our communities! Let those that cannot fight remember the scene where unicorns, fey, elves, men and dwarves came together to fight!!!“
The group blue skidoo we can too there way into the gate. You watch as the color on your clothes begins to dim. You feel like the early day has a rapidly setting Sun. As group blinks and see brand new surroundings. Welcome to The Fellnight Realm. This plane lies coterminous to Golarion, the First World, and the Shadow Plane. The sky of the Fellnight Realm looks like a night full of bright stars, though its two moons match Golarion’s moons. The sun never shines here, though plants grow normally, partially sustained by energy of the First World. Ambient illumination outdoors is typically dim light at all times. You take a moment to look at your surroundings area to see rolling hills and off in the distance is the the ward stone circle. Between you and the circle are various small camps which you imagine have some Spriggans guarding the area. If you wish to sneak past guard camps, I will need a stealth check. Or if you want to just bum rush the guard camps go for it. You have to place the ward stones first to keep the Queen from extending her influence.
Vomer would know that you just need to place the stones back in ring. The ritual is to seal her away for good once you kill her.

Vomer is a human but..... heart of the Fey so .... He has low-light vision. Vomer doesn't really want to fight but.... he's not much of a sneaker. Vomer wishes he had bought a couple of elixirs of hiding - D'oh... that said he does have one scroll of invisibility and some scrolls of disguise self so.... maybe use those somehow.... like invisibility on my dwarf friend Jang and disguise myself as some kinda fey (spriggand) or something..... or just go in guns a blazing.... whatever the group is good for. Jang I am not good at sneaking either but... I have a scroll of invisibility and scrolls to disguise myself if we want to try to sneak but... I have no problem going in a'blasting. What do you others think?
There’s not ritual for placing them. The ritual will be once you guys kill the Queen and you have the crook. Just place the rocks back in the ring.
You have to place the stone by getting past the guard camps. As stealth was not an option, your group makes a break for the hill for where the stones need to be placed. As your group runs down the path, they are intercepted by three Spriggans riding worgs, and what seems to be another swarm of bees. You also see a familiar gnome at the top of the hill guarding the ring from your group.

Vomer, Naevys, Jang, Brie you are up.

Vomer will make a knowledge check on the Worgs - - looking for weaknesses, weakest save and special attacks
Vomer will cast Ball Lightening. Placing a ball(#1) directly on our gnome friend on the hill and the second ball(#2) on the closer swarm - - the one just behind and to the right of the worgs. DC21 relex negates
School evocation [air, electricity];
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M/DF (a small iron ring)
Effect
Range medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect two or more 5-ft.-diameter spheres
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw Reflex negates; Spell Resistance yes
Description
You create two globes of lightning that fly in whichever direction you indicate. For every 4 caster levels above 7th, you create an additional globe of lightning (3 globes at 11th, 4 globes at 15th, to the maximum of 5 globes at 19th). These globes fly at a rate of 20 feet per round and have perfect maneuverability. Wind does not affect a flying sphere’s course.
If a globe enters a space with a creature, it stops moving for the round and deals 3d6 points of electricity damage to that creature, though a successful Reflex save negates the damage. Creatures wearing metal armor take a –4 penalty on this saving throw.
Each globe moves as long as you actively direct it (it’s a move action for you to direct all the spheres created by a single casting of this spell); otherwise they stay at rest. These globes have no mass and cannot push aside unwilling creatures or move solid objects. A ball lightning globe winks out if it exceeds the spell’s range.
Then Vomer will draw his metamagic wand of reach as his move action.
DONE

Jang starts casting a summoning spell.
A canine-headed humanoid with well-groomed appearance and a polished greatsword appears.
“Aid us dear Archon from Heaven!!“ Jang shouts and points at the enemies.
The archon immediately creates an aura that is menacing for the enemies of the group.
The archon then attacks the blue spriggan.
Jang also sends Magas so that the insect aids the archon!
Magas attacks the wolf to east!!
Vomer you would know the worgs are just big vicious dogs that can been ridden. No overarching weaknesses. Just hit them a bunch.
Vomer you drop the ball of lightning on Tenzekil who is not having a good day.
The second ball is put on the bees who are buzzing mad.

Two damage to Buff dog. Dear god these guys suck.
As the attacks aren’t hitting the mark as they should.

As the fiery explosion goes off, the Spriggans realize they have a glaring weakness. Fire. As the worgs have the ashes of their former riders. As the remaining worgs were still standing as they are cut down by Brie and Buff Dog. Magas doesn’t need to provoke as the dog is dead.
As this happens two flashes of light occur, revealing two pixies who attempt to dispel buff dog and Brie buffs.
