(went from full to 2 hp in two rounds)  Once he is out, the others attack without concern and wipe out the creature.  Cedious stabs it repeatedly in anger even after it has died.  Embedded within its malleable form are a few gems and some gold coins.Breathing hard, Cedious calls out to the cleric- “Need healing…now.”   Black sands, who was struck once also wants help.Vale Matterhorn reluctantly heals the ½ giant.  They need his great strength.</blockquote>
