Meanwhile, Mormesk and the Spectator:
A thought enters your mind:
"Should I punch them? As for the crystal, it's in the pack... somewhere."
Unfazed, Yulya gives Cat the signal to attack. She forms an Emboldening Bond between Alice and Cat and with one use of the Ring of Quick Casting casts Bless on her 3 teammates.
He says in a smooth, uncaring, somewhat disgusted tone, "I try not to think about what the pigs do in the barn. Now, if you'll excuse me."
[Initiative 1d20+2 vs 1d20+3 12 vs 8, Nezzner wins]
As Alice is distracted commenting on the goddess processed underage girl like a creep...
Unable to finish her task, the Bulette was left dead but not headless, so Nezzner casts Animate Dead on the Bulette.
The zombie Bulette approaches. M3gan transforms back into M3gan Panther and heads off to attack.
[POUNCE, HIT CLAW, NICK, CHARGER vs AC22 1d20+10+5+1d4=(CR,25),(CM,25), ACTION SURGE GRAPPLE (2 attempts) vs DC20 1d20+7=(25,16)][HIT BITE, Extra Attack x2 vs AC22 1d20+10+1d4=(CR,20),(14,27),(17,CR)][DMG Clawx3(1 cr) Bitex3(1 cr) 4d6+20+(2d6+10)x2=34+24]
In an absolute exhibition of claws and teeth, strategically waiting for it to come to her, thereby disallowing it a chance to attack, M3gan Panther shows the true potential of a highly honed fighter, dealing magic piercing blows to the reanimated Bulette and doing significant damage in the process.
Nezzner, first taking his staff back from a distracted Mormesk with a bonus action, moves east toward the Spectator and ends up 20ft east.
The spectator's flaming skulls move to get a clear shot at Mormesk and fire rays of lightning bolt and fire bolt.
[SAVE DEX vs DC13 1d20+3=(19,19)]
Mormesk dodges the rays and casts Greater Hedged Imprisonment.
A skeletal judge appears from the negative plane sitting at a regal wooden desk engraved with macabre scenes of skeleton warriors and angels caught in epic battle. The spectator is restrained by spectral chains that glint in the cave lights that line the walls. The judge seems to be looking over dark ethereal paperwork and points a long boney finger at the Spectator. Though he says nothing audible, it's clear a conversation is occurring between them on another plane.
[SAVE vs DC20, 1d20+3=7]
The judge pounds a ornate ebony gavel and both the judge and the Spectator are instantly teleported out of the material plane. Yulya can instantly tell that the barrier the Spectator has been maintaining is down. This means too that Nezzner has a chance to escape.
You get a communication from Mormesk, "I presume you can handle this situation, I shall return soon to collect my payment as we previously agreed." He disappears without a trace.
Alice easily catches up to him, cracks her nonexistent knuckles and with Yulya's signal and Cat moving in, it's time to roll.
With the speed and ferocity of a mongoose, Alice charges Nezzner and attempts to grapple him and shove him pone. She expends 1 Ki point for flurry of blows, giving her 3 attempts to reach this goal.
[Grapple/Shove vs DC15 1d20+2=(19,20,11)][Since Nezzner is the one rolling, neither EB nor Bless apply]
Nezzner is taken down on the third attempt and as Alice holds him he says in frustration, "This is outrageous!" His struggles are moot.
Alice fixates Nezzner and prioritizes keeping him from using somatic or verbal commands. She tries stretching out his arms for Cat to cut off his rings.
[Cat lost initiative so I had to reimagine her moves.]
Cat catches him and enters rage again, gaining 4 temporary hitpoints. Following Yulya's order, she attempts to cut off Nezzner's rings with a heavy strike of her Greatsword, flanking with Alice.
[Heavy strike? M'kay]
[HIT vs AC12 1d20+7-5+2d4=28, LUCK 1d20=15][Damage applies only to the focused action, three fingers were severed.]
With a focused and deft heavy blow Cat manages to lop off three of his rings. As the fingers separate from his body, you see one of them clearly attempting to heal before it falls helplessly to the ground, another instantly disappears to an unknown location using greater teleport, a third clings to life for a few moments before finally giving up the ring. As you can clearly see, he had quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
With Nezzner grappled and relieved of at least some of his magical items (he still has a ring and an amulet), with a second use of the ring of quick casting, Yulya boosts Sacred Flame to the max with the focus and the goblin staff and casts it on Nezzner.
[Sacred Flame boosted to level 3.75 vs DC15 DEX 1d20+2=(21,20) WILD 1d100=96 LUCK 1d20=11 POTENCY=12]
From wild magic, every creature within 30ft has gained immunity to normal piercing damage for the next minute.
With enough leeway to dodge, but at the disadvantage of Alice's grapple, Nezzner defies logic and avoids all damage from Yulya's attack!
You are left with the flaming skulls, the Bulette, and Nezzner who could still be a challenge.

I remind you that you Sir Mormesk tasked us with bringing you Nezzner's head? We had apprehended him and were on the verge of completing this task when you demanded his release. By this I consider our promise fulfilled!...
Meanwhile, Mormesk and the Spectator:
Show them your power and the crystal! Maybe they recognize your authority! But in any case let us focus on Nezzner first!
A thought enters your mind:
"Should I punch them? As for the crystal, it's in the pack... somewhere."
Unfazed, Yulya gives Cat the signal to attack. She forms an Emboldening Bond between Alice and Cat and with one use of the Ring of Quick Casting casts Bless on her 3 teammates.
Haah? Didn't you abduct those girls for exactly that sort of thing?
He says in a smooth, uncaring, somewhat disgusted tone, "I try not to think about what the pigs do in the barn. Now, if you'll excuse me."
