The next stage of the fight begins shortly after catching up to Ketheric in the [[Mind Flayer Colony]]. A Restoration Pod that grants the benefits of a [[Long Rest]] can be found to the right of the elevator that brings you to him. This is also an excellent opportunity to prepare for the coming fight by summoning additional help. If available, a set of [[Conjure Elemental|Elementals]] can be particularly helpful in keeping the necromites and skeletal involucres under control; likewise [[Conjure Minor Elemental|Azers]]. The area also offers unlimited fodder for [[Animate Dead]].

After the cutscene regarding Ketheric and his allies, players will enter a short conversation with Ketheric. During this dialogue, he can be talked down from fighting with a {{Ability Check|Persuasion|18}}. On a success, Ketheric will kill himself and the battle will skip directly to [[#Phase 2|phase two]]. Otherwise, a fight will ensue.
After the cutscene regarding Ketheric and his allies, players will enter a short conversation with Ketheric. During this dialogue, he can be talked down from fighting with a {{Ability Check|Persuasion|18}}, which will be available only if party members laid the conversational groundwork during the prior conversation on top of Moonrise Towers. On a success, Ketheric will kill himself and the battle will skip directly to [[#Phase 2|phase two]]. Otherwise, a fight will ensue.


This time, Ketheric can be found on the raised, round platform before the party. To the far right, a [[Mindflayer]] can be found overlooking the battlefield, further in, four [[Intellect Devourer|Intellect Devourers]] will quickly approach the party. Should she be alive, [[Dame Aylin|Aylin]] will be found trapped by spectral hands, granting Ketheric [[Invulnerable_(Condition)|invulnerability]] once more. On the other side of the room, to the left, four [[Necromite|necromites]] will sling spells down at the party.
