After Skameros strikes the poltergeist, it anticipates another devastating attack from Beegred, and elects to fling the halfling away and down the stairwell as a mother's frantic horrified voice curses at Beegred.
(Poltergeist 20 CHA vs. Beegred 5 STR checks, for 12 bludgeoning damage. 1d6 to hit the back wall of the stairwell, and 2d6 as Beegred tumbles down the stairwell).
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Beegred is upset at the damage. He recalls his army training instructor, and unleashes even more horrifying curses back at the mother-poltergeist.
He charges back to where he was, and attacks 3 times with the magic sword (3rd time is Haste; all with disadvantage, +5 for Observant feat; Lucky rerolled twice for the "1"s). Connects all three times (14, 16, 26). Damage rolls: 10 , 11 , 9

As the blur of Beegred rushes with incredible speed from the stairwell to where he previously stood, three swipes of his short sword causes all of the wailing, suffering and fearful cacophony to suddenly end with a final surprised 'ah'. The ensuing silence feels as loud as the poltergeist was.
Beegred continues whirling around, slashing at the air, and yelling unintelligible curses. It takes him a while to realize the poltergeist is destroyed.

Beegred will search the local area for anything unusual. Voodoo dolls, sigils that would attract angry spirits... anything that might undo the work that was just done.

Returning to the Rockblight and retracing your steps to the burrow where the skeleton was found, the sound of battle becomes distinct. In the doorway to the burrow, the ghost some of you have encountered twice already stands, panicked, looking cornered, preventing all of you from entering.
The ghost looks horrified at Orubis's words, who translates for Skameros. It hugs it's body protectively and glares at your party. The sound of battle gets louder.

Beegred: "Skameros gave you a chance. Don't complain when you are dead... uh, deader."
Beegred charges and attacks the ghost 3 times (the last being Dread Ambusher). (Dread Ambusher extra damage: 3 ) He misses on his second swing (10 to hit), but connects with his first and last swings (22, 21) for (8 + 9 + 6 = ) 23 damage.

All three voices of the poltergeist shriek in pain and rage as Beegred sweeps his magic sword through their form.
(Grithik's turn)
Grithik looks around, dumbfounded by the sounds and voices coming from all directions. (Dodging)
(Skameros's turn)
Skameros swings his greataxe and connects with something......and then misses with his second swing.

Rodolfo says, "Beegred.. it's over." He drops concentration on Haste and Beegred stops for a solid 6 seconds.
“That was tougher than I expected. Who’s hurt?”

“Uhdask must still be dealt with. I think a breather first.” Orubis will find a seat and start applying a homemade poultice to his weary body.
Just flavor for a short rest.

There is nothing in this burrow other than dust, webs, nesting materials and stone debris.
