I will stop gaming when they pry the dice from ...

A quick rest and top up the spells and general curing enables the brave band to start dealing with some of the loot.  Xinh and Rogan Josh volunteer to guard the treasures and an unconscious (and slightly scorched halfling) at the upper winching station.

The slightly reduced Token Human Party gird their loins and enter into the really, really big room we had earlier avoided.  Upon examination the room contained workbenches with various offcuts of metal, a skittering could be heard somewhere in the room.  Advancing cautiously we soon came across a Mud Slaad (at which point some of the parties bottom lips started to tremble), Entwhistle was quite happy to be firing arrows into the combat from 50 feet away, as if by magic a second Slaad appeared and is if by more magic the second Slaad disappears when the first Slaad dies.  A rather shabby cloak is found which Entwhistle claims (a Cloak of Arachnidia).

A secret passage leads to rooms and caverns filled with spiders webs, its not long before spiders start appearing from everywhere and the party start drooping, valiantly they fight back and are triumphant without loss of life.  More web entangled rooms with Ettercaps rushing out and pushing the party into webs together with a harpoon spider results in several members of the party trapped in webs/unconscious but come out victorious.

A final search of the rooms results in an easily vanquished air elemental and a cleric grappling a cat.

Back up to the top winching station and during an interrogation of the trussed halfling a commotion is heard outside and a cleric is found flailing at a little flying creature (who was stealing a 5000 gp diamond ring), several arrows and spells fail to stop it flying out of the complex and we discover the worst news that the Quasit had tossed the 8th (we have found the other seven) wand of water control into the lake (which we found contains some sort of summoned demon thing).  In a fit of rage Entwhistle throws the cat into the lake and assists the hobbit into the afterlife.

Xinh and Rogan Josh then reappear with the mule and cart we have hired to carry our treasure to Cauldron.

Everyone gets 4716GP and a 100gp pearl except Ent who get a 600GP gem instead(long story) and Rogan who gets a 100GP gem instead.
Much shopping later Leorn the Cleric is now AC21 with a cloak of resistance and a Hewards handy haversack. Rogan has lost one point of AC but is now only wearing Bracers +2 and a +1 ring of protection and thus has no spell check penalties. He also gained a pearl of power which can store an extra copy of one of his 1st lvl spells. I believe others bought another +1 ring of Pro, another cloak of resistance and a type1 bag of holding.

Si was right about Weapon specialisation being a fighter only feat so I've taken lightning reflexes instead.
