The 4 soldiers on the ground expire as the ravenous bugs continue their relentless attack, the previously healed soldiers look haggard as they try to flee the cloud of nasty combined with the biting bugs of doom. The priest coughs at the gas and raises his face and hands to the sky as he is being attacked by the pestilence. He cries out a prayer to his God to block out the devilish incantations being recited by the wretched dretch. He casts banishment hoping to send the devil back to its domain
you feel a heave in your stomach as your body is rapidly travels outside the material plane. You find yourself in a hit and arid place. The sky and clouds move in unfamiliar patterns and you can feel an overwhelming sense of misery and pain around you. After a moment of being slightly dazed by the unexpected travel you look around. Not far from you you see other dretches fighting over a corpse. Ripping and tearing at the flesh. After a moment or two, the flesh reforms an you see it is an unpleasant looking human with horror on his face as they dive into his flesh once again.
you see some other dretches an some higher ranking of the devils moving about, whipping those beneath their station, laughing, cursing.
His weak attempt draws ridicule from the other dretches who cease tormenting the half eaten human to jump onto the weakling, following your lead.
this catches the attention of an overseer who moves in whip in hand. His whip lashes out and around the weakling and drags him out where he is skewered by the flaming trident of the overseer. The overseer turns his attention to you, sniffing the air he says “ what has we here? A fool playing devil?”
you watch as the whip lashes out, you return to Lir form…and poof
you are returned in front of the temple, where the crew seems to be investigating the happenings. The insects and stank gas have dissipated.
i have you looking over the bodies “ investigating “ in the main thread
Is the entrance to the temple open?
( the 4 soldiers that didn’t heal are down, but not out. They have like 1 hit point…maybe none after the stink cloud)
priest- Con sav ( bugs) 14, con sav ( gas) 9
10 soldiers (4 on ground, 6 upright) can sav bugs- 12, con save gas- 17
( temple door is shut, the city has been alerted…)

Attack: 23 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
( Lir charisma save or be banished vs 23)
The Dretch has -4 charisma so mathematically impossible.
Insect Plague is still in effect I believe for the remainder of 10 minutes and the noxious cloud lasts for a minute.
( what? Dretches are not lovable? lol.)

Dretch-Lir runs over, as if to join in the feasting - then will attempt to grapple the outmost Dretch 12 STR.
The Dretch gives you the WTF look before pushing back at you 7

Lir drops his Dretch form - and casts Wither and Bloom on the grappled Dretch, plus the others/the mutilated man on the ground - CON Save 16

(He's shifted form to provoke a return to his original plane at the conclusion of the Banishment spell).
Ha!
