It was electrocuted by Ivellios then Vedic Tanner turned it and it was then pinned to the door by Charmer.

Tim turned the undead grafts.

It is too gruesome for him so he declines.

Ivellios reads the Journal of Kysiatch and discovers many intriguing things, including the true purpose of the facility, the fact that Kysiatch was once a DeDannan and that he was trading supplies with creatures from The Prison.
