As he travels he attacks the trees to try to keep them from advancing [Damage 7].Jan moves lithely over the ground as the group traverses the path under the ominent storm clouds.Libros keeps moving in the centre of the group. His policy of keeping low seems to be working as the flailing branches pass over his head.<s>The thorns rake across Ullara's back, drawing blood</s> ... the thorny branch flashes above Ullara's head as the ducks. She manages to keep her feet from the uneven ground. She grits her teeth against the sound, keeping her mind clear with her recitations, and swats at the bloody thorns with her staff, knocking them askew. [Damage 6] Bran fares better, not getting hit, and even manages to crunch another branch in his jaws [Damage 4].Herr Bourn fires off another blast of ice from his wand, striking the trunck of one of the larger trees, instantly coverage it in an icy frosting [Damage 5]Eban advances along the path, suffering a nasty strike, but saving Ullara fro such a fate. Bloodied, but note deterred, Eban moves swiftly forward, striking back at the trees and inflicting wounds of his own in return [Damage 8].Bayar easily fends off the assaults directed at him, turning defines in offence, hacking into wood(?) and shadow [Damage 7]. He moves forward with renewed confidence.The Netherworld shudders and seems to recoil from the sustained depredations of the party. The the trees flicker, reappear, diminished, bushes barely topping 10ft (but still armed with wicked thorns). They surround, but don't crowd in. The darkness lurking at their heart fades to mere shadow. The dismal chorus waivers. Ahead, the path is undemanding, obvious. The valley opens up and the party find themselves at the bottom of the small rise on top of which the portal sits, just a couple of steps away. And few steps and they are though, tumbling into the inner chamber of Herr Bourn's lamp lit library. The young woman dozing in the corner of the room, dressed more appropriately for the kitchen than the library, screams and falls off her chair.[sblock=OOC]Cumulative SummaryJan ....
