The first wave of goblins is slain but a group of reinforcements arrive immediately, which is subsequently routed.

Pickled Lady

The adventurers proceed into the Wizard's workroom, and come across a Thresholdian lady in suspended animation in a large bottle. After sufficiently looting the room, they remove the cork on the bottle. The magical preserving fluid bubbles away, and the lady awakes from a decades-long stasis.
