Rilee, in huge air elemental form, moves in past the grappled giant. She extends her senses into the pavilion, searching for her friends.
Meanwhile, the tyrannosaus doesn't bother with the niceties of moving through the entrance, instead plowing through the pavilion's fabric walls like they were paper. He enters the front room with a roar and chomp on anything inside. If there's nothing, Rilee directs him to keep pushing further inside the pavilion.
Olympus begins savagely mauling the giant at the entrance.
Each opponent within range of a gaze attack must attempt a saving throw each round at the beginning of his or her turn in the initiative order. Only looking directly at a creature with a gaze attack leaves an opponent vulnerable. Opponents can avoid the need to make the saving throw by not looking at the creature, in one of two ways....
Therefore, since I haven't acted yet, I should get to choose whether to roll again against the second one's gaze after Setsuna healed me. Right? Or is it some free action interrupt thing that it can do off its turn and not a gaze?
This ability is similar to blindsense, but is far more discerning. Using nonvisual senses, such as sensitivity to vibrations, keen smell, acute hearing, or echolocation, a creature with blindsight maneuvers and fights as well as a sighted creature. Invisibility, darkness, and most kinds of concealment are irrelevant, though the creature must have line of effect to a creature or object to discern that creature or object. The ability's range is specified in the creature's descriptive text. The creature usually does not need to make Perception checks to notice creatures within range of its blindsight ability. Unless noted otherwise, blindsight is continuous, and the creature need do nothing to use it. Some forms of blindsight, however, must be triggered as a free action. If so, this is noted in the creature's description. If a creature must trigger its blindsight ability, the creature gains the benefits of blindsight only during its turn.
A line of effect is a straight, unblocked path that indicates what a spell can affect. A line of effect is canceled by a solid barrier. It's like line of sight for ranged weapons, except that it's not blocked by fog, darkness, and other factors that limit normal sight.
You must have a clear line of effect to any target that you cast a spell on or to any space in which you wish to create an effect. You must have a clear line of effect to the point of origin of any spell you cast.
A burst, cone, cylinder, or emanation spell affects only an area, creature, or object to which it has line of effect from its origin (a spherical burst's center point, a cone-shaped burst's starting point, a cylinder's circle, or an emanation's point of origin).
An otherwise solid barrier with a hole of at least 1 square foot through it does not block a spell's line of effect. Such an opening means that the 5-foot length of wall containing the hole is no longer considered a barrier for purposes of a spell's line of effect.

The moment Eugeni becomes visible due to Setsuna's Invisibility Purge, the two alien looking creatures turn to face him. A metal-raking-on-metal sounding scream rings out through your heads, as if originating within your own skulls. One of them works some magic and vanishes, briefly...before appearing in the hallway behind them, still radiating a blinding light! The dinosaur and Setsuna are fine, but Rilee's eyes are blinded by the creature's radiance! Fortunately, the echolocation spell allows her to still sense her surroundings well enough.
__________
Eugeni stays where he is, waiting for help. "I can't see anything. There are two shining children coming for us. They have a hatred for creatures of darkness, and have several potent defenses, including complete immunity to blindness, fire, and poison, as well as strong resistances to cold and sound." he says, just in case his friends are still nearby.
Setsuna once again Heals Eugeni's blindness and then hides in the shadows.
As Eugeni's eyes heal...again...he immediately is forced to endure the blinding radiance of the creatures once more!
__________
As she fails to cure Eugeni's blindness once again, Setsuna groans in frustration.
"I'm leaving the room! Hide! Go invisible!" she informs Eugeni.
Selecting her Blessing's extra speed, the Oracle then flares her wings and relocates to another room that actually has shadows. She makes sure to have enough altitude to avoid the nearby shining child's reach. She then hides herself and starts plotting her next action.
Eugeni casts a quickened vanish on himself, feeling a bit of his old anger flare up at the annoyance of the shining children. Once invisible, he casts a dimension door, visualizing himself just inside the entrance to the great pavilion.
Rilee directs her dinosaur to attack the glowing creature, right after bestowing upon it an enchantment to make its mighty attack even greater. It stomps past her and delivers a tremendously painful bite, taking the thing in its jaws.
Meanwhile, Olympus continues his assault on the giant.
The creature is snatched up in the dinosaur's jaws, bones crunching between its toothy maw! It focuses on the saurian, and clutches the sides of its mouth with its hands, and the flesh begins to burn and melt around where it grasps!
Meanwhile, another one of these creatures appears on the far side of the room and looks around the scene!
__________
Blinded as she is, Rilee smells the burning attacks so she quickly casts resist energy on her ally to keep him from further harm. Then the dino swallows the creature and moves to threaten the newcomer.
Olympus keeps his attacks going on the giant.
Eugeni cowers in silence, hoping to go unnoticed.
Not wanting the group's unexpected ace card to vanish, Setsuna flies over the Rilee's dinosaur and heals it.
She then hides herself in the creature's shadow.
Seeing its comrade get engulfed by the saurian, who has now turned its focus on him, the remaining shining child appears to try and work some sort of magic, but the thundering steps of the dinosaur breaks his concentration and he fails to cast!
__________
Setsuna recasts Blessing of Fervor on all of her present allies and then speeds off to go see if she can find Zoli, staying close to the shadows of the wall as she travels.
After giving Olympus instructions to stay and guard Eugeni, Air-Rilee zips down to remain close to Setsuna. However, her echolocation senses nothing but a dead end ahead. "Can't go that way, Setsu!" she shouts in a windy voice. "Something stopped the T-Rex from pushing through the wall there, too," she gestures with an airy appendage at the interior curtains.
Then she zips back and takes a swing at the remaining shining child.
The dinosaur takes advantage of the new magic, and it takes two mighty bites at the enemy before it.
Meanwhile, in the dino's gullet...
Eugeni continues to cower, as the shining child fails to work magic once more.
__________
Taking her grandmother's advice to heart and opting to regroup, Setsuna flies back to Eugeni's side and starts at assure her boyfriend that his blindness will be Healed momentarily...
Rilee takes a few swings at the child while it's in her dino's jaws before he spits it out and sinks his teeth into it two more times.
Eugeni continues to cower blindly, as the dinosaur chomps the alien creature in half. From outside the pavilion, one of the giants steps back into the spiked area, eliciting a grunt of pain from him and reminding those inside of the foes still closing in...
__________
Setsuna Heals Eugeni's blindness.
"There's an invisible wall blocking the center room. Can you D-Door Rilee and me inside? I think Olympus and Rexy can handle those half dead giants."
"Wait! I can bring Olympus with me, since Mr. Dino can deal with the giants no problem. Would it be easier for you to teleport me if I got smaller?"
"If you turn back to normal, Eugeni should be able to carry you, me, and Olympus," Setsuna says in Thassilonian.
[ooc]With a CL 14, Eugeni can carry four medium creatures or two medium and one large.[/b]
"I can take all of us if you were a little bit smaller, Rilee. Say the size of Olympus."
Once everyone is ready, Eugeni grabs Setsuna's hand and says, "Everyone make sure you are in contact with each other." Once they are all touching, he casts his spell.
Eugeni works his magic, and the room is instantaneously pulled through the fabric of reality into a new location! The air in this room is unusually close—seeming almost to shimmer with pleasant-smelling mist. Pillows, cushions, and throw rugs cover the floor, and four beds sit in the corners of the room. Each bed has an iron frame to which numerous ropes and leather straps are attached. A large padded throne sits against the far wall, between two beds, while opposite it in another corner, a tall, spindly censer sits on a low wooden table—it’s from here that the faint mist seems to be issuing. Eugeni can feel his mind relaxing, and his inhibitions lessening, as he breathes in the alluring fragrance.
