Uragum frowns, he wavers for a moment trying to decide whom to attack with the fire and decides to help Ola out. With a flick of his hand he directed the ball to spin around ram into one of the Zombies. Then, looking at the Skovac character and raised his hand releasing a small orb of electricity.
Bonus action: Move Flaming sphere to one of the zombies by Ola, preferably behind the zombie and not putting Ola in it's 5 foot radius. Dealing 7 fire damage, 1/2 with DC Dex 13. If it doesn't move on it's turn out of the radius, it will need another DC 13 Dex save or take 8 fire damage, 1/2 on a save
(Oops, sorry. I should've specified that I wanted to attack the same zombie Ola was attacking in my post so the Hunter's Mark would be on them instead of Skovac.)
Hex focuses her attack onto the zombie both Ola and Uragum are attacking, trying to clear the field up.

Sylyra starts to grin in response to the wight's scream, but quickly goes on the defensive as the creature flies at him. After narrowly dodging the conjured scimitar, the elf thrusts his staff forward in a seemingly poorly aimed attack, but as he pulls back and the end of the staff arcs upward and toward him, the moonbeam is pulled along as if hooked by an invisible fishing line until it is once again over his assailant. The living druid then holds his staff in front of his chest, and a trail of black flames flows outward from the center toward each end.

One of the zombies flails as it is torn into by Ola's sword. It shambles away from the heat of Uragum's flame, but only stumbles into the path of Hex's arrow, which strikes it cleanly in the head and drops it to the ground. Its undead companion grasps at Ola, but her armor continues to hold strong.
Skovac grits his rotted teeth as Sylyra brings the moonbeam back upon him. The radiant energy tears at his armor, and for a brief moment looks to be giving the druid the upper hand when Skovac's flaming blade dissipates, his concentration disrupted. However, in a flash the wight has brought his longsword to bear, cutting hard into Sylyra's thigh. The moonbeam flickers and fades as Sylyra's blood begins to spill.

"No!" Sylyra almost screams. His mind is reeling, but he successfully fights his flight instinct. He swings his staff at the wight's head while conjuring a totem. Dust just behind Skovac swirls into the air as if caught in a wind eddy, finally settling in space in the vague shape of a bear standings on its back legs and pawing at the air. Sylyra and his three friends feel an influx of health.

"Keep it up Ola, shifting to what's his Scale face," Uragum calls out. He flicks his hand again and pulls the flaming sphere towards Scalebinder's back and rams it into him trapping. Then, again, he tries to hit him with a charge of electricity from his chaotic orb spell.
Bonus action: Move Flaming sphere to Scalebinder, preferably behind and not putting Sylyra in it's 5 foot radius. Dealing 5 fire damage, 1/2 with DC Dex 13. If it doesn't move on it's turn out of the radius, it will need another DC 13 Dex save or take 8 fire damage, 1/2 on a save

The bear spirit appears in the middle of the room, providing a burst of vigor and energy to the party. The sudden rush of adrenaline assists Ola in cutting a hand clean off of the zombie as it grasps out at her. Another arrow from Hex plods into its side, and it lurches but remains standing.
The flaming sphere cuts off Ola and the zombie from the Scalebinder, searing at his back. As Uragum blasts him with a bolt of electric energy, he curses. "Now you've pissed me off. You could have simply left...but now I will have you join in my curse," he spits at Sylyra, whose quarterstaff swing is cut short as the wight attempts to grab hold of the druid's arm. As Sylyra backs away, Skovac presses forward, swinging short with his sword in his other hand. He places himself directly between the three outside of the chamber, eliminating space for the flaming sphere to affect him.

Ola would be happy to attack the main culprit (especially sins he was pissing her off too by now) but there was a zombie between her and Skovac that had to be dispatched first.
Attack on that zombie again: Bless 2 + 11 Damage: 9
Uragum nods at the progress but frowns at the curse. And that manuvering away from the sphere was frustrating, without a way to put it into the foes back, he foreced to move it back at to the attacking Ola. At least it would remain helpful. Then without his more powerful spells, moves forward, electrifying his fist in the process and tries to slam it into Scalebinder.

Zombie CON Save: 23
Ola cuts into the zombie again, pushing it backward and into the oncoming flaming sphere, which overtakes it, immolating the creature. As it flails behind him, returning to death, Uragum's fist slams into the Scalebinder's chest. A burst of electricity sparks between them, jolting the wight off of his feet. With a final cry of anguish, Skovac slides to a stop on the floor, dead.
Area Description:
The brilliant red and orange tiles covering the walls of this room gleam with reflected torchlight and the faint red glow that emanates from something that floats lazily in the air above a red, stone altar in the middle of the room.
The object is quite large--the size of a large shield--and looks to be made of polished red metal and inscribed with runes.
OOC: Each character has received 200 XP for defeating Scalebinder Skovac and his pair of zombies. Removed spent ammunition from Hex's inventory.
Ola lowed the sword and stepped back from the properly cut body of the zombie. "I hope this was the last of the horror of this place." She walked closer to the altar, not touching the red metallic object above, though, for the runes had to be examined first. "All that stealing and killing for this thing..." She looked with a mix of disgust and curiosity, thinking if it reminds her of anything she saw before.
Hex lets out a sigh of relief as the undead fall. She steps around the bodies and approaches the altar, looking around for any possible traps that may activate if they were to remove the relic.
Uragum keeps the ball of flame present as a precaution if not for the extra light provided. With an undue amount of seriousness he goes over to each undead creature and rams his staff hard in the head of each. "Sorry for the gruesomeness but best be safe. Dont want to find they are playing dead and get back up while we are looking at things."
Ola Investigation: 8 Hex Investigation: 7 Sylyra INT: 7
For Ola:
Though you are unable to discern the meaning of the runes etched into the side of the relic, it is clear that it is in fact a large red dragon scale. The runes are engraved into the scale, and it is inlayed with silver, gold, and platinum.
For Hex:
You see no indication that either the altar or the relic are trapped.
For Sylyra:
The wight is conceptually new to you. Though you may have heard stories of such creatures, up to now the only undead you have seen are those that were mindless, like zombies and ghouls. The wight possessed a clear intelligence and a memory of what it was in life.
"Well, it looks like a dragon scale. Same as the one my shield made of just another type of dragon." Ola raised her shield to make the point. "Not sure about runes, though, and whether or not it is safe to touch it or remove from the altar. Can try if you think it is safe. We need to bring it back to the city anyway."
If no one stopped her, she poked the scale with her sword and if nothing apparent happened picked it up.
