The three bosses don't fight together and instead appear one after the other. Upon entering the boss room, the Godskin Apostle spawns in, followed by the Godskin Noble after it has been defeated, and finally the Spirit-Caller Snail after both are dead. They drop the Godskin Swaddling Cloth and Black Flame Ritual when defeated.
