"We're so dead."The creature whipped around to face the source of the noise, and clawed tentacles shot to the illusory tunnel walls.Where they stopped, feeling at the apparently solid surface. Then the group sprang their ambush.---An enormous ball of lightning leapt from Rand's fingers at the slightest flexing of his will.Stedd's reflexes (buoyed enormously by his Boots of Haste and his Ring of Jumping) were faster still, as he blurred across the room in one enormous leap, bringing his elbows down on the creature's side in a terrific Mantis Leap, causing the creature to sag inwardly.An incantation, and smaller orbs of light leapt from Halbrinn's fingers to slam into the creature, whilst Yvgeny scuttled spider-like across the ceiling to get into a better position. Aeron's first spell caused him to glow with a shimmering nimbus, as his muscles grew with a divine might. Stunned, the eye-tyrant didn't even notice.Miles, tumbling nimbly, flanked the orb with Stedd, and his twin blades Scourge and Slayer flashed briefly in the darkness. He cried out as electricity leapt up his swords, but by the time he had realised he was hurt, the beholder-kin was dead."Awww," said Yvgeny from the ceiling. Then his eyes bulged as the creature twisted, flexed, swelled, and suddenly exploded in a huge burst of electricity.Thanks to their superb reflexes, hardly anyone in the group was injured by the electricity, other than Aeron and Rand.What took them all by surprise, however, was the huge amount of gold and silver which burst from within it, scything through Halbrinn's much maligned tent, and forming piles against the walls of the cavern. Rand ducked, as a steel scroll-tube scythed through the air and slammed into the wall just below his head, and other small golden trinkets flew through the air, showering the adventurers with riches.---And thus was born the Pinata of Evil.</blockquote>
