Between battles:
After the battle, you will meet Eleni Dunbar (yes, THAT Dunbar, Magus'
stepdaughter), the powerful mage that conjured up the golems and Huxley
the priest.
Go to the bridge.
At this point, go back to the world map, save, and then enter the Palace
Ruins.

Although this battle looks easier then the last, it is actually one of
the hardest battles you have fought so far... possibly THE hardest if
you are trying to not lose a character.
General suggestion: Read what I did. This is the only strategy I have
found that does not use an item OR lose a character this battle.
What I did:
Hero Turn 1:
Ash: Move forward one square.
Huxley: Move forward one square.
Enemy Turn 1:
2 of each of the enemies moves forward.
Event: One section of the bridge explodes, no one killed. Eleni
and Diego talk some.
Hero Turn 2:
Diego: Move forward one square, then attack the Hell Bat (36 damage, 26
XP, 9/45 HP remaining).
Huxley: Move in front of Diego and whack the bat to the ground (9 damage,
26 XP, Dead).
Eleni: Move forward one square, then star the Hell Bat (Dark Star, 25
damage, 26 XP, 20/45 HP remaining).
Ash: Moving in front of Eleni and attacking (19 damage, 9 XP, 1/45 HP
remaining), with a nice counterattack (19 damage, 43/62 HP remaining).
Clint: Moving to the side of the bat and wiffing it (1 damage, 26 XP,
Dead)
Enemy Turn 2:
Bandit: Attacks Clint. (12 damage (51/63 HP remaining), 23 damage on the
counter (19/42 HP remaining), 16 XP, Clint Level Up)
Bandit: Attacks Clint. (14 attack (37/63 HP remaining), 29 counter (13/42
HP remaining), 11 XP)
Hunter: Attacks Clint. (13 damage, 24/63 HP remaining)
Hunter: Attacks Clint. (13 attack, 11/63 HP remaining)
Note- This round seems to be particularly random, as I've had it go from
Clint having 1 HP to Clint having 37 HP. This is the round that has repeated
itself most often though...
Event: One section of the bridge explodes, no one killed. Kira
Wolfram introduced outside the bridge and playable.
Hero Turn 3:
Kira: Push rock forward (hitting the Hell Bat), moving forward AGAIN,
then attacking the bat (45 damage total (23 then 22), 16 XP, Dead). Damn
she is good. :P
Diego: Moves behind Clint and attacks the 13 HP Brigand (13 damage, 30
XP, Dead)
Huxley: Moves next to Diego and heals Clint (56/63 HP now remaining, 45
XP).
Eleni: Moves in front of Ash, Dark Stars a Hunter (Dark Star, 21 damage,
25 XP, 15/36 HP remaining)
Ash: Moves behind and wastes the Hunter (15 damage, 19 XP, Dead)
Clint: Chops off a brigand head (19 damage, 18 XP, Dead)
Enemy Turn 3 (or should I say, what's left of them...):
Hunter: Shoots Ash (11 damage, 32/62 HP remaining)
Hell Bat: Attacks Kira (15 damage, 41/56 HP remaining), counterattacked
and killed by Kira (45 damage, Dead, 25 XP).
