*Rillian is too far ahead to reach the battle, so he braces himself and prepares to defend anyone who runs forward past him. Anton tries to fire, but the enemy has a bunch of cover from the others in the way, so the shot goes wide. Meliana closes her eyes and concentrates, though nothing seems to happen. The creature snarls, violently outraged by the near-successful grapple by Tandi (especially since it seems like in most cases, it should have beaten Tandi easily at a grapple), so it lashes at her once as it moves up next to the crystalline wall and then vanishes.*
(OOC: Tandi takes 8 Damage)
"What now?" Thurgan wonders, asking the others for ideas on what to do next.
"Someone must heal the one who is dying. Was the plan not to continue on?" Sashal states.
"I...well, I linked with it. I usually use the link so I can heal people from farther away, but it lets me know the distance and direction. It's moving erratically, seemingly through the walls...so I couldn't track it, but if it gets close, I can tell you."
