Before Ashton could ponder more about the 'second party', Anna collapsed. Casting [Illusion] on the Lich was more problematic than she thought, and what little bit of mana she had regenerated was pulled away from her, making her unable to do anything more.
At the same time, they returned to the cave right in front of the boss room. The doors were wide open, and a Staff could be seen floating in the middle of the empty chamber.
As much as Ashton wanted to take the staff, he couldn't. If anyone but a succubus so much as touched the staff, they would be gone forever. However, the prize inside the other room was all his.
But before that, there was something else he had to check.
