Indacalis stands panting, his hands on his knees, his head down. He stands that way for a long time.

When he straightens, he walks over to the other sibbecai, and looks him in the eye.

"Well, I reckon I'd better fix you up. Hold still."

He reaches to touch Daralthy's wounded head, his hand alight with a soft green glow.

[ooc: if Daralthys lets him, Dak will cure 2d8+5 hit points. Erekose13, how much damage did Dak cure exactly in that last round? I'm not sure at this point how much subdual I have.]

"Yeah, you're probably right," Darthallys growls.

He'll wait calmly while Dak heals him. When he's done, Darthallys will nod curtly and say, "Thank you."

-Darthallys the Razor-tongued
 

*Kelthet methodically gathers up dirt from the cave floor, mixing it together with a healthy dose of saliva, and rolls it in to a precise ball. He examines it critically while the others heal up, and then nods, placing it in his witchbag.*

"Now that our guides have fallen, where do we proceed?"
 

dak

"I cain't proceed nowhere untill I kin rest. I cain't hardly think." says Dak wearily.

He moves, a bit stiffly, over to Phaern.

"Mr. Spryte, you don't owe me nothing. The Green is...it's...I just stand there and point. But I'm glad for you. I am." He smiles a toothy smile and goes over to tend to the mule.

[ooc: can we take it on faith that Dak has used his ring of creature loresight all the way to the end on Kelthet's snail or Phaern's shell fragment, during the long journey from the snail room to this place? I had meant to do that, but the cut scene didn't give me the opportunity. If so, what did he learn?

Oh, and Dak infuses the mule with the Green, too.]

[ooc: once the mule is healed up, Dak takes him over to the pit to see if he and the mule can be of any use in retrieving the bodies of the greyfolk.]

[are we dragging here, or is everyone just busy?]
 



*Both Darthallys and the mule look much improved for an infusion of the green. The mule can pull out the bodies of the grayfolk with Atlas' help. The moaning has stopped for the moment, but ripples in the blue ceiling promised that the bat-creature probably wasn't done with the party. There are a dozen exits in the direction the grayfolk were headed, some larger, some smaller, some going down, and some several feet of the ground.

[OOC - About the shell fragment, you learn that it was from a flail snail that died at the hands of your party. It was going to find food, and most recently interacted with some giant lizards before your party came along. Its most valuable possession was its young, and you already know where its lair is. About the little snail, you learn that is it also a flail snail, not surprisingly enough. Its most recent goal was to sleep, and its attitude toward Dak is indifferent. It interacted with Kelthet before you, and its most valuable possession is its shell. Its lair is currently in a slime-filled empty lantern in Kelthet's backpack, and its current thoughts are ones that it is hungry.]
 

"Let's try to find some cover down one of these passages," Leesea says with an anxious look at the ceiling. "Anyone think they could find tracks...maybe figure out which passage the grayfolk originally came through? If not, I can try to consult the akashic memory, but that will take time. Not something I want to try in here."


(ooc - if no one finds useful tracks, Leesea will Delve Into Collective Memory (+10) once they reach something resembling a secure spot...try to learn more about that room and hopefully which passage might be the correct one to take to find the gray folk's settlement)
 

Atlas

"I think we need shelter at the moment. Continuing the quest will have to wait.
I still need to fully recover from the battle, as does Dak. The spell casters need to recover thier spells, and you and I need to commune." *Atlas says before seeking the nearest shelter, leading the mule, with her now heavier load.*
