Investigate the green river, follow it to its source
Seva flew down closer to the ground and to the green river flowing from the forest. He did not need to follow it for long, soon he found a pedestal of stone upon which grew a colossal lotus. From the lotus flowed the green that made up the river, splitting four ways to make four rivers. But that was of little importance compared to what else was happening. Creatures of the forest were moving against the green currents, traveling towards the Lotus. Once they reached the stone pedestal they vanished to places unknown.

Cuberac focused his power and released it in a blast. The cube swarms were sent in a frenzy, spinning around at absurd speeds. Bob himself didn't get hit by anything more than ground sent up by cratered cubes, but T-rex was struck straight in the temple and fell to the ground. Unfortunately for Bob and luckily for Cuberac, T-rex fell on the other dinosaurs, pinning them down. This was enough to send Bob into frenzy, and Cuberac was forced to roll aside continuously while dodging Bob's attempts to stab him with his claws.
Doktor Diabolical:
"Excellent. Mostly."
Have the factory convert the power armor parts, the blunderbuss, the flamethrower bot, and the bicycle into power armor for Doktor Diabolical. Hopefully with flamethrower and railgun weaponry. Also make 3 essences.

For the first time in years, Doktor had a thought that perhaps things don't always just work out into something coherent. The armor was a mess. Systems were stealing power from each other and leading it to dead ends that threw sparks. Three valves were leaking fuel. The entire thing looked like it was either missing something to bind it all together or had too many things smashed into it already. Doktor would have to decide which it was and start fixing.
Turn Urgh into shreds using my full blade arsenal (not including blade mail). It's time for the Athath Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.
Direct my celestial wolf to attack the demon, summon an angelic wolf using all essences and both lesser and greater blood power.
"Sorry everyone. Looks like we'll have to try again. Without any traitors this time."
Grip my new smokescreen torch to protect from fireballs and ambush Urghe.
Dragon shout/toss/order Grundar to toss that mage into the portal. Use whatever plant energy is left that isn't in the seeds to increase the POT of my dragon shout. Then pull out the omnicube frame to close the portal and turn it into a shield.
Make sure to get the trees seeds and keep them safe after.
((Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.))
If the Ilithid attacks, have the stiletto hit it in hatchet form. If it doesn't attack, have the stiletto attack Urghe instead.
Use the spell reflection shield to block any magical attacks, focusing them towards Urghe, and throw one of the vials of pollen in his face.
"It was inevitable."
Go and murder demons with sword. It might have an interesting effect on extradimensional flesh.
((I'd also appreciate retroactive spell casting - want to see if my bones endure magic first.))
Doo bee doo bee doo, secret pm stuff yeah!

Your bones repair themselves all the time. Good when you are injured, but it's basically bone cancer if you're not. The cancer is slow working, unlike healing, so you're good and your bones are now uninjured.

Ilithid ghost rushed towards Gambler who raised a glass hatchet in defense. Paltry though it seemed, it coursed with terrible magic. Gambler waited as his foe approached, then struck it away in a swift motion. Or so he expected to do. The ghost was struck, and it's ectoplasm withered into nothingness around the wound, but there was no stopping the wraith's motions, it dove towards the gambler and then into him, disappearing into his flesh. Just a few steps away, Ao rushed the shadow demon, sword in hand. With a wide swing it severed the demon in two at the waist. Demon seemed to find this hilarious, but grew confused as it noticed that the shadows were not reconnecting. Angered, it threw a fireball upwards where it unfolded into a portal.
From the portal fell a flask with will-o-wisps whirling inside. There was little time to examine it as it soon shattered, releasing a burst of light and sound. Ao and Urghe were effectively blinded, the rest of the mages managing to shield their eyes in time. But none shielded their ears and deafening silence descended on the battlefield, with nobody able to hear a word. The portal also released a sword, a cutlass, floating in the air and coated with poison. Imediatelly, it flew towards Ao who was too dazed to react. It struck him straight in the chest, but failed to penetrate deeply through scales and thick skin. The cut was minor, but the poison that entered his system wasn't.
Skeliborn did not care much for the demonic minions, he knew who to blame and how to blame. The proper method was stabbing with two swords at a time, which he did. Vortex bane in one hand and wind blade in the other, he slashed as Urghe. Not too strongly, as he knew not what traps the traitor had prepared, but he need not to worry as both blades drew blood. Vortex bane separated three fingers off Urghe's left hand while wind blade sliced to the ribs on the right side.
James was more cautious than his compatriots and gripped his newest acquisition to provide a smoke screen against the fireballs. Smoke poured over the battlefield, but apparently the shadow demon was waiting for just such a thing. It dived into the smoke disappearing from sight of other mages, but more worryingly, vanishing from Jame's sight as well. That was worrying, and so James rushed to the next part of his plan before something happened. He gathered wind in his lungs and ran towards Urghe. Skeliborn saw something approaching through the smoke and wisely decided to move back just enough for James to be able to work safely. James released his breath and with it, the power of dragons. The blast of air picked Urghe up and tossed him through the portal. He grabbed onto the glass edges formed from omnicube but the force was too great. He disappeared in black flames, and to make sure he was never seen again, James tapped the glass in a few secret places that folded it back into a cube again. The portal, now unsupported, folded up, although the black flames refused to leave and remained hanging in the air above the cube.
Seeing that enemies were no longer present, Sharrin decided to delay his potentially crippling summoning.
Urghe rose from the ground, using one of the broken pieces of wood to help himself up. There was no lack of them after he had smashed through that fence and into the cabbage field protected by the fence. The portal winked out of existence just in time for him to see it happening. Damn, but that blast was strong. He looked around some more. There was the cabbage field he flew into, there was a dirt road to the field, a small house at the end of the road. There were some trees nearby, chestnuts it seemed. There seemed to be nothing moving anywhere though, nobody to notice his crash. His hands hurt, one hurt because it lacked three fingers but the other was uninjured, wasn't it? He dropped the piece of wood, crutch no longer necessary and looked at his hand. A chunk of flesh was just gone. He looked at the piece of wood again. Perfectly camouflaged mouth filled with teeth was munching on a piece of meat that was just recently attached to his hand. It swallowed and then it let out a high pitched squeal. The fence came to life, mouths appearing all over it's length. Trees opened eyes on their leaves and branches moved to grab him and drag him to massive maws on their trunks. Cabbages pulled themselves out of the ground and split in two, or so it seemed with their mouths opened so wide, they all rushed towards Urghe on their stumpy roots. In the distance, the house began oozing purple slime and all doors and windows opened showing darkness filled with teeth. As the earth opened under Urghe-Ongho revealing a maw the size to swallow armies, his last thought was 'I was so close".
