[QUOTE="megamania, post: 4631704, member: 9255"] SEGMENT 021 “Large Monstrous Spiders and Aura’s Secret Revealed?” Continuing on the survivors of Donnerson’s city guard and the adventurers come onto a large locked door. After a few minutes of searching, Mania locates a lever and opens the door. It leads to a long hallway thick with webs. Carefully they go through the webbing and this leads to a huge room also thick with webs. As they go in they discover it has several [COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]monstrously large spiders (54)[/COLOR] also. The spiders attack immediately. Leeya starts with her magic missile wand. Vander strikes at a charging spider. One spider bites Bora while the others continue to move in. The others move up and fan out. Donnerson covers Leeya. The spiders do poorly against the adventurers. From here there are many doorways leading out. Deciding to speed things up, the group split up enough to look briefly into each exit. Mania and Aura go to the furthermost exit. Mania notes that Aura seems disappointed he tagged along. “Everything okay?” he asks her. “I am… fine.” “Sure? You took some hits with that Naga.” “Weary. I am merely tired. There have been some tough battles.” Mania watches her and can not read her well. Her helmet blocks much of her face.
