Rough carved walls and no signs of trouble. Fiddle found the drow tracks. “Come out and we won’t harm you,” Fiddle commanded.Darian and Alya entered the chamber.  “I hear a young woman sobbing at the back,” Darian said.Fiddle moved in the direction Darian indicated. Alya quickly caught up. Another illusionary wall. This one too Fiddle and Alya bypassed easily. Another chamber. This one occupied. A drow woman with a cloak drawn about her face. She sobbed. Fiddle prepared for trouble. Alya sang.Fiddle ran for the exit. Too late. A web covered the illusionary wall. A large spidery creature occupied the ceiling. An aranea. Facts flashed thru Fiddle’s brain. In its natural form, an aranea resembles a big spider, with a humpbacked body a little bigger than a human torso. It has fanged mandibles like a normal spider. Two small arms, each about 2 feet long, lie below the mandibles. Each arm has a hand with four many-jointed fingers and a double-jointed thumb. An aranea weighs about 150 pounds. The hump on its back houses its brain.“It’s an ambush,” Fiddle screamed. He attacked the web with Lightning Strike. He was quickly entangled.Fiddle could see the other party members on the opposite side of the illusionary wall. He hoped they could see him. He knew they heard him. Sully mumbled and waved.AllontaniNothing happened.Darian stood looking at Fiddle. “This is gonna hurt,” the Lathanderite said. A flame appeared in his hand and the web burned.Alya cried out in Elven, “La mort rapide à ceux qui m'ont fait du tort." He fired his bow into the aranea.Calrom lowered his shoulder and charged over Fiddle bow ablazing. He fired two arrows into the drow woman.The drow woman changed form. She too was an aranea. She advanced on the ranger.Arendel and the bear moved into position near the illusionary wall.</blockquote>
