Gaedren moves over to separate the two, " What the Nine hells are you two doing? "
"We're fine, let's go." says Avarice to Gaedren, and nodding to Hazel.
Gaedren looks back and forth between the two and sighs.. " WhhhhhhhyyyyyY? " He looks to Hazel inspecting her all over for wounds, " Can you heal yourself? " he looks to Lily, " Can you make sure he bite mark is gone? " Pointing to Avarice. During this time he seems to consider his attire non-important.
Gaedren shakes his head and sighs, after everyone is relatively healed he descends the stairs. It was relatively awkward to adapt to being not clothed, but there wasnt tie to fix it. " Alright then. I hope I can find some clothes when we get back. "
The stairs are surprisingly trapless.
Reaching the bottom of the stairs the party is immediately beset by two serpentine creatures both wielding whips, and carrying a dagger in the off hand.

Gaedren points to the leftmost creature and inspires the group with hi voice and body.
" They have whips and we have spears, we have the advantage in number and size. "
"I'm not sure about this, what are you thinking Gaedren?"

" Lana has already committed and there are only two of them at this point we simply focus one down then the other quickly, DONT be stupid and rush into thier range use reach then step in! "
The Serpents both step forwards and strike out at Lily before ending their attacks with bites onto Lana.

Hazel takes a five foot steep forwards and attempts to use a spell.
She succeeds and blasts both Serpents with color spray.

The serpent that was injured is immediately stunned by the effect.

The stunned snake goes down.
But the other shakes off Lana's poison and whips at Lily again.
"Pile in on the last one and just bring it down."
Hazel makes her Terbutje glow before striking the snake.
"Yes! LUG AGREE! LET US DROWN IN OUR BLOOD AND THAT OF THE ENEMIES! FOR ROVAGUG!"

The other snake whips each of his attackers inflicting damage upon them, but it is quickly overwhelmed.

"Both are +1 Agile whips." Avarice tells the party.
"The Daggers are both Masterwork and poisoned with Deathblade."
Gaedren rushes over to Lana and sighs placing his hand on her shoulder. He checks her wounds as well as the rest of the party's before speaking to her. " Miss Lana, it was foolish to rush into the enemies grip without knowing first how they function without proper assistance. Just because they are not large monsters does not mean they do not have nasty surprises. Please be careful next time. " The naked man said genuinely.
He turn to the resyt of the party. " This tower seems to get progressively more strange. This floor had multiple creatures in the last room, likely as we rise above they will only get worse. Luckily there wasnt too much damage. The equipment was equivalent to the last floor as well.. strange. " Gaedren pondered on the implications of this before moving to the obvious thought process.
" We can equip ourselves with better armaments now. As for the Dagger's I suppose they would go well with Mistress Avarice or Miss Shaylee.. however I'm not too sure... Mistress Avarice showed too little restraint... I cannot afford to have more harm come to the group... "
"Apologies."
Gaedren sighs, " Are you truly so? I realize you are often correct in your assumptions Mistress Avarice, but did I not say earlier.. if you have an issue.. bring it up with me.. I will do what is needed to handle it. And if you want to hurt anyone else.. you hurt me.. That went to EVERYONE. So unless it is particularly needed I dont see it coming up often. Unless you enjoy hurting me.. in which case I am both durable and have the capability of mitigating such efforts to eventually satisfy the needs. "
Gaedren places his spear-butt to the ground leaning on it slightly. " Other than that...I suppose you shall get one dagger and Miss Shaylee the other. I ask again Miss Hazel, Mistress Avarice... are you two fine? is there anything else that needs to be said BEFORE we enter Nexus once more? "
Gaedren looks to them feeling the air once more now that the Adrenaline had dissipated.
Hazel shrugs, "We're ok. Fire isn't THAT bad."
"I'll save my dirty jokes for when Avarice isn't present."
Gaedren nods and smiles.. " So it is settled then, I suppose we just return.. but two things. One, do you think Nexus sales clothing? Two.. does anyone have spare cloth or clothing at least for my.. Ermm.. private areas..? " Gaedren coughs.
"Bah! Lug is thinking clothes isn't needed either if friend Gaedren not need clothes, Lug join him!" Lug immediately begins to strip down.
" No Lug! I do very much need clothes! That is why I'm asking for clothes! You need clothes too, it protects you during battle so that you can do things.. like Mate later without losing your .. mating tool. Or Smash enemies better. I will just go like this.. keep your clothes on. "
"As you say friend Gaedren."
Gaedren sighs, hefting his backpack and weapons strapped to his person. " C'mon now.. Let's get this over with.. I'm mentally prepared. "
Gaedren leads the party back down to Nexus to the Lost Boy's Inn.. completely aware of his condition and hard at work holding back the embarrassment until he reaches the door hoping the place was mostly empty save for the bartender, Quinn.
" H-Hello, It's Gaedren our party has c-cleared 4-A today... "
"You didn't fight naked last time we adventured together, figured you'd give it a go after seeing me in action, did ya?" says Samara right away.
Gaedren cursed his luck.. ofcourse the other adventurers would frequent during this time. Samara seeing him was quite worse but he suppose it was no worse than.. the rest of his party. The thought of her naked form was... interesting for Gaedren however.
" Errmmm no. I got this way because a particular type of ooze.. well.. they all rushed me. And when they strike it burned most my clothes off. This is not.. my normal attire. I apologize for the situation. "
Gaedren bowing slightly, " D-Does anyone perhaps have a spare set of clothing.. or know where I can.. purchase any? "
"Eir makes clothes, you can go see, shouldn't take her long to get something for you." Samara responds.

" I see... about how much does she usually charge? Is there anything I should know about her? I rather not set her off the wrong way.. I'm not sure walking up to her naked may be taken as a complement or insult. "
"Shouldn't be more than a gold or two, and she's seen weirder I promise you." Samara thinks for a second, "Actually Eir herself is pretty weird, so there you go."

" Define .... weird ... I'm sure you have noted the personalities of some of the persons here... can you give an approximation of weird. Are we talking weird on my current level or.. closer to say... Lug? "
"Ummmm...She's a lovely girl. I think it's a girl. Woman I suppose."
"She's nice, quirky. Unless she doesn't like you, she's allowed a lot more leeway with the whole not harming people clause of the city than most. A lot more."
"So..If you feel like you're not welcome, probably leave."
