The team the temple. Even with Alex's seeming bad luck, they are able to enter into an area they simply call the Control Zone, a location "somewhere" in or near the temple site (a pocket Nexus?) which allows them to see what is going on in the main temple area. Using the Control Zone's abilities, they deactivate some of the defenses of the Well Room where 7 Koldun who control the area are holed up.
They overwhelm the 5 koldun on duty quickly by surprise, and then the 2 bigguns come in. Though the team attacks valiantly, the two Master Koldun's defenses are significant. The battling goes back and forth, starting to look grim. Dee switches tactics and decides to use his Dragon power to destroy the Matrix floating over the center of the Well... and the team escapes with their lives due to a desperation teleport via Alex. When they return to the outside of the manor, they all immediately fall unconscious due to the incredible drain of power they all expended.
The crystal was the channel for the power which was being used to create and control the Curse Slaves/gnolls, so a number of the people (about 20) have been freed. The ones who were completely transformed have either escaped or were herded together to see if something can be done to undo their transformation. Eventually Noah will be able to assist in breaking the curse.
This is their first time meeting with Azapuuf, who, having been crossed, is now their mortal enemy...
