The tale of the Treasure

"Hmmm, must've slept in," he mutters to himself.
After he says that though, he looks across the small field where his fellow adventurers and the orcs were the night before - nothing. He looked to his right, toward the Orc Village.
"I must've been a fool," he thought. "Slept in past when they went in the village."
He walked toward the village, but found it - empty. There was neither person nor orc to be seen. He looked back across the field, and noticed that there were no traces remaining of the huge bonfire they had lit the night before. He felt his amulet reassuringly, and yes, it was still there.
But no one else was.
(make this difficult; don't make it easily resolvable)

The pillars of fire faded and giant, flat, glowing blue disks shot out and dissipitated into fading golden sparkles when they hit somthing. The disks, emenating from the blue pillar, shot out in all directions at a breakneak speed, and more and more appeared. The ground opened up in a giant fissure, shaped like a gaping maw, and the whole orc army was swallowed into darkness. Finally, with a giant thunderclap, the ground ceased shaking and closed together, and the blue spiked disks stopped appearing. The pillar resolved into a hovering blue form of the hell dragon.*
"Fools, you actually think you defeated me that easily? True, you banished me from the mortal realm in flesh, but now I am able to rejoin my kin...in hell. With the forces of hell behind me and my master, this land shall know nothing but chaos and death." a booming voice from the dragon came out.
"If you are banished, then you can't harm us in the mortal plane." Avatara shouted back a challenge. A howling wind started to rise. The dragon just laughed.
"True, I am banished from the mortal plane, in flesh and blood. My hellish powers can be used without substance. I have already take vengance on the orcs for betraying me, and now I shall use your friend as the focus of the powers of hell. Soon, you too shall know the underworld, and I will make sure my masters give you a nasty death." the dragon faded from view, and Rogan's eyes glowed with a dark blood red.
Rogan lashed out, without warning, and knocked Callie into one of the uprooted trees a hundred yards away. The cat fell to the ground, unconscious, in a puddle of dark blood. Avatara spun as Rogan charged, but Rogan fell to his knees before he could stab his dagger into Avatara's chest. Avatara stood over him, his runeblade Azurewrath drawn, and Rogan clutched at a nasty cut across his stomach that was glowing bright white.
A red mist rose from the ground in a circle around Rogan, and moved to his feet, traveling above ground at a slight angle. Rogan glowed red, and the glowing slash faded. Avatara stared in confusion, his sword had the power to slowly weaken his enemy but the power had subsided. Rogan stood up, and the glow in his eyes was a fierce as ever...*
(Hint: If you defeat Rogan within six hours-not an easy task at all, you won't have to fight the minions of hell)

Even though their mana was down, DF and Kestral still had energy and their swords. They fought the trapped Rogan as he blocked them with his sword. They used a technique that eventually knocked the sword out of Rogan's hand and doomed the fallen warrior. The two then took turns hitting Rogan with their swords and finishing off the warrior. Before they could though, the amulet let out a stream of blood red light and exploded. It did not kill Rogan but it did release him from the spell. The warriors were about to celebrate but then noticed the face of the dragon in the air again.
"Hahahaha, you think that is wanted, didn't you? Foolish mortals. You wasted your time and now shall feel the wrath of my undead army. Those foolish demons have no idea of the power that they have unleashed" The dragon said as he laughed
The ground shook with more force this time as it split. 20 huge skull dragons appeared. These evil beasts had no mercy whatsoever for an opponent. They would kill anything that got in their way, even a warrior who surrenders and runs. Demons came to the plains to try and control these evil creatures as they appeared but only succeded in making them mad. Even with their strong magics and sword the demons died. They took out 3 of the evil dragons but couldn't last long enough to take on the rest. As the skull dragons finished off the demons, they turned to the weakened group. They smiled their evil feral grins as they charged. Upon instruction, Kestral's eyes turned blood red as well as DF's. They had to use dark magic now...

"Foolish mortal, you do not fathom true power just yet" the Hell Dragon said as it attacked the forgotten gold dragon.
The struggle was brief, the gold dragon put up one hell of a fight but it could not win against such evil. Its dying breath was released with an unfamiliar dragon call. Talos couldn't even put his finger on it. It seemed to be an ancient call. One of the rarest use.
DF has his blade swinging back and forth with a few stabs every few seconds. The Hell Dragon then focused on the group again.
"Hahahaha, the disruption spell just gave me time to regenerate. Foolish wizards with foolish spells."
He then released a fireball which engulfed Ferezel and destroyed all of him but his hat. DF then went insane with anger and attacked with nothing else hung back. Kestral shot a dark spell at the dragon which deflected its attention from the warrior doing it great harm.
"Now to get rid of you" it said as it cast an evil spell of its own. Ghosts appeared all around Kestral and drug him, screaming, to his death.
His attention was back on DF again but for some unseen reason, he couldn't hit the warrior. The dragon first thought it was dark magic until he saw Avatara repeatedly enchanting the warrior with his magic. A cosmic fireball ended this and Avatara's life. When it finally got DF alone in attacking him, he pinned the warrior beneath one of his claws. He proceeded to destroy him when he was interrupting of another dragon. It knocked him over and trapped him within a whitish glow. He turned his attention and then noticed a Platinum dragon, the opposite of him. His weakened state allowed the mighty good dragon to win easily and send him permanently to hell. DF was the only one to witness this monumentous event. When the dragon left, DF gave a revival spell to Avatara so he could bring back the rest of the group.
5 days later the group was all alive. Rogan had been revived from his hat and the rest had gotten healed up as well. They were resting for they weren't at full strength quite yet.
"What did you see DF" Talos asked the fifth day "I got knocked out with Kestral before the victory occured"
"That is my knowledge. I will reveal it on a later date. I need to solve this problem myself first"
The group didn't need a defender that night. No creature dared come within 50 meters of them now. This would help on future occasions.

They were now on a flat area in between two mountains. Trees surrounded it on both sides, growing upwards toward the two peaks. However, the area they were on was flat and quite barren...

As the fight dragged on to the second hour, DF dropped. He did not recieve a fatal blow, instead he was just dead tired. Each of the adventurers had taken much damage and dealt a lot more but they had only gone through half of the enemy forces. Soon after, Ferezel fell, then Rogan, and then Avatara. Talos and Lindor remained upright but were also on the verge of collapsing. Then, another miracle occured.
The Platinum Dragon had not gone far from the adventurers. He had decided to lead them to a place of true evil. The place which had brought the damned Hell Dragon up from its resting place. His race of dragon had fought to almost the bitter end to kill the thing. Only him and his family survived. They hid away in a lost cave upon a lost island, becoming stronger should the evil get stronger within the world. Dremni, this particular dragon, had fought against the first Hell Dragon. He had survived the hunt for dragons and had matured to be one of the strongest. He needed to help them out on this battle, and he needed to help quickly.
The group was dead tired as Talos and Lindor finally fell. Despite the magic items within the group and the strength of the group, they could not take this attack. They felt a tingling magic run across them for a second which revitalized every part of their being. They looked around to see each other glowing a bright silverish hue. They decided they had been spared by some unknown power. They then continued on in the battle, fighting fiercer then ever. Rogan had his set of knives in hand and threw each of the ten. The Ice Dagger was known but the others were not. Each one thrown had a different effect on each target it hit. The Ice Dagger froze one of the enemy while another dagger fried another enemy. One dagger hit and the ground beneath the victim split and engulfed him. Another dagger hit its target and the shadows around its victim seemed to take him to a different dimension. Each of the daggers did a different sort of attack. When they all ran out, Rogan drew the Excalibur and started his swing...
Lindor was having fun now. His axe was cutting away at any enemy that came within reach. Their pitiful attacks were being deflected by the armour and could not hurt him. He then found a particular troll who had obviously studied the art of axe warfare. He dodged Lindor's attacks and missed a few to Lindor, who dodged the Troll's attacks. The weapons would clash against one another and Lindor would swing back to take out a sneaky troll. The fight lasted for 15 min, almost an eternity for a one to one battle. Lindor's axe penetrated the Troll's skin quite easily and killed the foe.
Talos was having a field day of his own. His scimitar was hitting its mark all the time. He slew quite a few of his enemy. He had gone from the north end of the battlefield to the south in his fighting. Upon reaching the edge, he turned back and fought some more.
DF was having trouble fighting. It was not the fact that he couldn't fight, it was his problem with the ethics behind killing an entire brood of trolls. Sure they were evil and all and they attacked the group but that was no reason to engage in genocide. He fought on knowing that it was a kill or be killed world and he better get swinging.
Avatara join Kestral and Ferezel in spell casting. He enhanced the power of the two's attacks, making them twice as powerful as they would be. They destroyed half of the enemies this way.
By the end, the group was tired but was relieved. They had defeated a numerically superior enemy which should have killed them all. It left them to wonder what had saved them...

All was quiet in their camp, as everyone slept contentedly and without fear. All except Avatara. His eyelid, though heavy, continued to flicker as he fought his inner battel.
