The flesh golem screams in agony with several concurrent voices as it burns. The Flesh Golem took <span class="mu-s">8 fire damage</span>. Flesh falls away to reveal more flesh underneath as Kossuth's purifying flame melts the abomination's skin, and the animating magic holding it together loses its power.
You are still holding your hands out, maintaining your grasp on the Ball of Fire, like a telepathic weapon. <span class="mu-i">(Flaming Sphere can last up to 9 more turns.)</span> But you blink and realize you have slain the beast. It's no more than a pile of flesh on the floor, and the terrified hooting and howling of the creatures locked in their cells once again becomes the main overbearing stimulus of this wing.
<span class="mu-s">You gain 1,800 XP, putting your total XP at 10,725.</span>
<span class="mu-s">(3,275 XP remaining until 6th level.)</span>
You know there's no getting out of this situation. This wasn't a subtle kill - you'd better make sure it wasn't for nothing. You must use your next seconds wisely.
You have 29/46 HP, and enough magic for 4 first-level, 1 second-level, and 0 third-level spells.

(Stealth, DC 20)>This abomination was made of the flesh of once-living creatures. Maybe, against all odds, there's enough of a creature symbolically intact in this pile of meat to act as a vessel for its animating spirit in life. Cast Speak with Dead. (Unfortunately cannot choose this option right now due to having no 3rd level spell slots are left.)>There's no time to investigate. Free the creatures trapped in this wing of the Abbey immediately.>Cast a spell or use an item (list: https://pastebin.com/chuTtwgW)>Other (specify)
