    Hyra's spell strikes both targets, although Gothmog doesn't seem too bothered by it (saved). The light is blinding to the priest, but so is the fog. Her spiritual weapon also strikes. Lanius fires two arrows with lethal effect. Jessica swings at the Balor, but without vision, it's hard to strike a blow.

    The priest invokes the name of Pelor, the Burning Hate, calling upon Pelor to staunch his wounds (CD: Preserve Life). he then summons a glowing mace to strike Merry.

    Hyra's Sunbeam tags both targets, but not for much damage (saved). Her Spiritual Weapon misses. Lanius fires two more arrows at the Balor, it's truesight not helping it see through the dense fog. Jessica darts in, smiting Gothmog once with a flash of light.

    Teopixki casts a spell, and a glowing light appears to the right of Hyra and Jessica. (I don't think you can identify something without seeing it?) healing himself and the Balor.

    Gothmog then lashes out at Hyra, bringing her down with a stroke of the whip and pulling her body closer to him. He swings his sword at Jessica, but she deflects the blow.

    Jessica dispels the priest's Spirit Guardians.
    The priest moves 10' to H13, but meets nobody there except a pew. He intones a spell. You hear something move through the air to N15.
    The spiritual weapon moves closer to Jessica.
