Just as in Dungeon Master, monsters disposed of in pits are never truly disposed of. You generally encounter them again, lower down in the dungeon. When I got to the bottom of the pit, I took falling damage, and being unprepared, was annihilated by the angry skeletons. So when I attempted this again, I locked/loaded some spells, prepared some healing potions, and stepped into the pit... and landed directly on top of a skeletal warrior - obliterating him! I was immersed in the shower of monster death sparks! It was a moment of pure, crushing joy! That was one less skeletal warrior to deal with!
