Her tiny blade fails to mark the hard bone of the terrible construct even though she is sure she hit it. Ballista pops to her feet and draws both her bow and an arrow to fit into the string while waiting for the bubble to be canceled. Taking a bead on the large skull of the walking pile of bones, Ballista will shoot the instant the bubble is gone.

The dwarf will nonetheless roll between its legs, ending up hugging the wall and his rapier in his hands. Fin will try to run his rapier through the skeletons back, but his weapon is not very effective against such a foe and even with the advantage of attacking a flank he fails to harm it. Garagos stabs slightly the bubble, testing if he can leave them without smashing it. Grackle notices the others banging on his bubble and trying to get out, so he can only guess that they want out.
