Bulvii searches the skull headed man for anything of use or value. "Best ensure we've taken what we can carry before moving on. Lets make sure we've secured everything these cultist have stolen before moving on."

A short flight of stairs climbs to a circular chamber with four padlocked wooden chests piled in the middle of it. The chests are locked, but you wrested the keys from the iron consul in one of your earlier fights.
Treasure. Each chest weighs 25 pounds empty, and all four contain loot stolen from Tiamat’s hoard on Avernus. This treasure was brought to Baldur’s Gate by devils in league with Zariel, and was given to the Dead Three cultists by Amrik Vanthampur on behalf of his mother, Duke Thalamra Vanthampur. The contents of each chest are described below.
Chest 1 holds 4,500 cp and two red crystal vials with gold stoppers (25 gp each). Each vial contains a potion of fire breath. With the coins and vials inside, the chest weighs 70 pounds.
Chest 2 contains ten eye agates (10 gp each) scattered amid 1,250 sp. With the coins and gemstones inside, the chest weighs 37 pounds.
Chest 3 contains a delicate porcelain dragon mask (25 gp) resting on a bed of 2,400 cp and 500 sp. With the coins inside, the chest weighs 55 pounds. The mask weighs 1 pound.
Chest 4 contains a bronze crown with five spires (250 gp). Each spire is shaped and painted to resemble one of the five kinds of chromatic dragons (black, blue, green, red, and white). The crown weighs 2½ pounds.
Zogri looks a bit oddly at Gralmore's reaction. But shrugs it off as he is beginning to get used to his behavior.
As a centaur Zogri can carry much more then a human so he will take the other two chests by tying a rope around each and hanging them over his back. Each side of him a chest is hanging with some cloth over it to cover it up a bit. Not wanting to attract to many eyes on the way home.
"Lets try and get all this out of here gentleman. We can sort out what to do with it back at our base. Certainly will help to have this to pay out franchise fee early." Bulvii heads to help grab one of the heavier chests still left.
You make your way back through the sewers and to the secret passage in the bathhouse. No one rises up to threaten you during this exodus from the underground complex.
Dalin and Raven:
Dalin, having escorted a young tiefling woman from the sewer complex, finds a half-elf woman in studded leather, two shorts swords, and a rapier about her person. she has raven-black hair and storm-gray eyes. With no hesitation she informs Dalin that she was sent by Lia to help out here. The two of you are just preparing to head back into the bathhouse when the others arrive at your location, having finished their work below.
Everyone ...
As you emerge from the bathhouse, five figures leap down from the top of the courtyard wall to confront you. In addition to their black leather armor, they wear strange masks and cloaks that give each of them a vaguely dragon-like appearance. All five brandish curved steel blades reminiscent of dragon claws.
"You have treasure on you that belongs to the Dragon Queen." One of the dragon-garbed figures says, stepping forward menacingly. "Give it over or face Her wrath."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
These have been seized by the Flaming Fist due to criminal activity against the Duchies of Baldurs Gate. How can you prove that these chest legally belong to your, correct me if I’m wrong here, illegal cult?
Raven frowns as these new cultists appear. She kicks herself for not keeping a better watch, but was distracted by the plan to head inside, only to find those she sought coming out instead.
"How do you know they have any such treasure on them?" She asks, eyeing up the members of the other group.
"We couldn't care less about the flaming fists." The cult leader informs Damrious. Turning a look to Raven he narrows his eyes at her. "Our Lady lets us know when her treasure is close, these fellows have it. Stay out of this or you will end up like them."
Having walked the way out of the dungeon Zogri releases a sigh of relief once he sees the sky again. Finally, clean air and some space.
As the cultists demand the treasure Zogri looks back to see if the chests are showing, trying to make sure they are still beneath a cloth. To be safe he will place his hand on his bow and try to block vision of Gralmor as he is most likely still dragging two chests out.
Damrius will keep firing his firebolts Attack: 9 Damage: 5
Zogri will line up another arrow aiming for the mans torso. But getting distracted he fails to hit his mark..
Arrow Attack: 8 Damage: 16 (of force dmg)

"Bah, that won't work on me again you skull headed fool!' Bulvii waves his hand and a flash of light flies out at the skull headed man.

Gralmore slams his war hammer into the skull-head man's chest, the sounds of bones breaking obvious.
Damrious misses.
Bulvii sends a ray of light at the man, which hits, leaving him glowing slightly. His spiritual weapon misses though.

With Bulvii's ray of light showing him the target more clearly, Zogri manages to land his stirke, taking out the skull-headed man.
Combat is over
"Surely he's the last of them."
Gralmor smacks the cultist one more time at the head before looking at the group with a grin hanging on his face.
"Now comes the fun part. I hope ye all are feisty enough to check the side tunnels earlier for treasure, else I'll leave ye all with nothing!"
The gray dwarf waddles back. The sound of heavy armor clanging reverberates through the halls as he rushes down towards the said destination.
Bulvii searches the skull headed man for anything of use or value. "Best ensure we've taken what we can carry before moving on. Lets make sure we've secured everything these cultist have stolen before moving on."
you find his two normal daggers and 10 gp on him.
Backtracking to the side passage...

I will give you a bit to respond to this, then will work the scene where you exit the sewers.
"I'm rich Hahahaha! The gray protector shall be pleased with these riches!"
As if the fatigue from the battles earlier was gone, Gralmor tries to drag two of the chest with him as they head outside.
I don't think you can carry all that cash Gralmor, also isn't it Mr Vanthampurs?
Zogri looks a bit oddly at Gralmore's reaction. But shrugs it off as he is beginning to get used to his behavior.

Finally Dalin grumbles. Sumpin smells like a sewer. Dalin looks the newcomers over, and places a hand on his axe.
