The PCs soon realize that the skull is only a decoy. They take some time search the room, eventually releasing an efreeti from a magical brazier.
The genie grants them three wishes, which they use to obtain a palace in the Outland, its location, and some information about Shadowthrone.
Further investigation in the room reveals a secret passage, leading to ... another secret passage. Finding themselves unable to open this last door, Broch uses the power of a cursed gem they found earlier to teleport the party beyond the door. But the curse of the gem teleports them completely naked on the other side. Then the gem explodes. Even more, the ceiling comes crushing down on those deeper inside the room.
Having weathered all these traps, and after recovering their equipment, the PCs find the final resting place of Acererak's skull, now turned into a demilich. The party fights the fearsome undead and destroy it. They recover the treasure of the demilich, and find the LAST coin of Shadowthrone.
Their mission accomplished, the PCs return to Sigil, where they plan their next move. Broch tries to forge his masterpiece by merging Titan's Lust with Whelm, but fails. A trip to his past may be required to ignite his creative spark.
