Othello manages to rise a few feet and avoid the bone shards entirely. Both Quinoline and Liam manage to duck and avoid the worst of the damage.
Quinoline chucks another Ghost Charge bottle at Yellow and it smashes on its head, splattering all of the other wights in a 10' radius with positive energy, causing them to smoke more than what the fire is doing to them.
White moves through Yellow's space and attacks before raising his shield.

Blue takes advantage of the flank set up by his captain and moves into position against Liam.

You suddenly hear a flapping wings. From above, the drakes you took care of appear and strafe the wights with their fiery breaths!
Green is incinerated by the fiery breath and is no longer a threat.
Red bellows something in common. "Remember your training, fools! We are trained warriors!" Its allies seem to remember something. What it is, you have no idea. Red meanwhile decides to attack ...

... and overbalances, nearly falling over.

Wordlessly (since he's trying to hold his breath against the smoke), Liam presses his arm against some of his wounds. His armor heats up and releases a burst of steam. Momentarily unpleasant, but the heat cauterizes and the steam contains vaporized medicinal herbs. His words might be silent, but the loud BANG! isn't. The pressure of the steam overloads a valve, and a necessary component rockets off into the distance. Blast. Well, Liam's armor is still mostly working.
He then slashes at the damaged creature, trying to finish it off so the party can focus on the newcomers.

As Othello destroys two of the remaining undead, Liam doesn't approach the last one. Instead his hand brushes a rune etched into his armor--not one of his gadgets, this is magic.
The armor (and the rest of him) increases in size until he can easily reach the last enemy, which he does.
He then stows the axe so he can pull out a healing potion, and takes a breath while he can.

Othello and Liam take down the remaining three wights with well placed slashes. Seeing that your opponents have been eliminated, you quickly evacuate the burning forest and get clear.
Once you're out in the open, you see that the undead army has been nearly wiped out. A combination of Freedom Town’s forces, your defenses, superior tactics, and the wildfire made quick work of most of the undead. Mahja finds you shortly after the battle, wounded but generally well. She carries a joyful look on her face and the head of one of the powerful wights in her hand—a trophy to take back to Urgir. She rushes to you with excitement, eager to trade tales of the day’s battles.
"So, my friends! How was your battle? Do you have tales of your heroic combat with the undead forces?"

Mahja Firehair unleashes a bellowing laugh. It almost sounds like a howl as it echoes throughout the valley. "Well, I think we managed to stop the undead. If there are more, I’m sure we could take them, but I think we’ve earned a bit of rest for the moment." She holds up the wight’s head, its eye sockets filled with a jet-black emptiness and thick, dark ichor dripping from its torn neck. "I think this one will fit well among the nine broken skulls in Urgir. I’m sure Ardax will be pleased to—"
The head’s eyes flare to life with the all-too-familiar red glow typical of wights. Almost instantaneously, the light shifts to a dark purple hue and a loud hissing begins to emanate from the head. The symbol of Sarenrae pinned in Mahja’s hair glows bright and a horrified realization flashes across her face. Quicker than a flame burns dried grass at the height of summer, Mahja pulls the head in to her chest and turns away while yelling "Get back!" As she throws herself to the ground to cover the head, the hiss becomes a deafening pop and Mahja becomes enveloped in a pitch-black light. The light is gone in an instant, leaving Mahja’s unresponsive body thrown about on the ground.
Rushing to her side, you find that she is dead, killed by the massive influx of negative energy. Healers arrive but attempts to heal her are ineffective and even a quick breath of life fails to help her, as the bomb is a death effect. There is nothing you can do to bring Mahja back to life.
Eventually, the rest of Freedom Town’s forces learn of Mahja’s fate. Regardless of how the Burning Sun learns of the death of its leader, there is immense grief. The Burning Sun orcs believe your explanation of the events surrounding Mahja’s death and bear no ill will toward you or the Pathfinders.
Before you leave, Uirch finds you and thanks you for your help. He seems in high spirits, even after the death of Mahja. He explains that while the losses today were tragic, there is also hope among the Burning Sun hold. First, the undead forces were defeated and Belkzen will remain safe for the time being. The other reason for hope is that Mahja’s body bears a Vow Mark.
"Orcs believe that they can challenge a god in the afterlife in a process referred to as the Crucible. An orc can declare a vow shortly before their death. Upon dying, the orc can challenge a god directly for godhood. If the orc wins, the god is slain, and the orc can claim divinity to become a god themselves. If the orc loses, their soul is destroyed, and they can’t be resurrected or move elsewhere in the afterlife. An orc undergoing the Crucible always manifests a symbol, like a glowing scar, known as a Vow Mark. I saw a Vow Mark on Mahja's neck! She's now undergoing the Crucible. I can’t explain much more about the Crucible, as it’s a mysterious phenomenon. However, disturbing a body bearing a Vow Mark risks drawing bad luck or a curse. We'll be leaving Mahja’s body here, with some members of the Burning Sun to guard her, while she completes the Crucible. This could take days or even months, but it is an exciting time for the Burning Sun hold.[/b]"
There’s a party in Freedom Town that night as people celebrate the destruction of the undead army, the saving of the town, and Mahja’s undertaking of the Crucible. The mood is one of joy and hope, even with the death of Mahja. You, along with the rest of the Pathfinders, are celebrated as heroes of the Battle of the Burning River and earn fame and respect among the Burning Sun hold.
Thanks for playing everyone!
