fun times- what to do now?

So, a quick recap of what happened last night, while we are waiting for frekld's novel to get posted;

we faced a butt load of zombie minions- i lost count, but probably the total was near 19. Also a shard zombie, regenerating ranged zombies, and hobgoblin zombies with crazy ac (i missed him with a roll of 24!)
Things were not looking good for a while, but we prevailed, using most of our encounter powers (again). The mvp without a doubt was Nook- he was able to take out about 6 undead with his turn undead power (which I think really turned the tables). His healing was also key for me, as it allowed me to take my role as damage sponge well. All in all, i think i took 2x my normal hit points in damage.
Nook was also able to take out 3 more zombies while down to 2 HP.
Also got to mention Kallista, who I was sure was going to bite it, as she was down to 10 HP, and surrounded by several zombies (including the insanely hard to hit hobgoblin)
Her curse bite was key there- rolling a crit which caused the hobgoblin's head to explode.
Kallista and drawoc both did go down, though.
Jukka was the big hitter in the end game- his radiant damage was pretty key.

we are all pretty low on hp now- Goofus has 5, nook has 2, busty and durzo are near single digits- drawoc and kallista were just revived. Only Jukka has a good amount left (>30?)

So the encounter ended with the sun coming up and shining through the doors. But it doesn't seem like this is the end.

I'm sorry I had to quit early. I thought for sure that Nook would be dead last night. I need to turn over my rolls to someone else, since it looks like I'm holding my character back.

Here's what happens next.

As the last zombie falls...

The zombie shudders and collapses as the energy antimating
its rotting body dissipates from Goofus' attack. The party
turns toward the main doors, expecting another wave of
fiendish undead. Instead, the temple interior is suddenly
filled with shafts of pale, morning sunshine, bursting
through the cracks and holes in the doors and walls. You
then realize the forest outside the temple walls has become
still and quiet.

The party exits the temple. The clearing around the temple
is littered with hundreds of bodies, from tiny shrunken
goblin corpses to the behemoth carcass of what appears to
be a dragon. Corpses are stacked up against each of the
temple door ten and twenty high, and the stench of rot and
death fills the air in a nauseating miasma.

The party has survived til the dawn, and is free to find
their way back to town.

One last decision to make, however - what to do with the Necroshard?
