Prism looks down as the bomb rolls at her feet. "Thatwas..close." She continues to scramble up the hill.

Niksi
Niksi moves around closer to the path up the platform. She looks at the bomber on the corner. She sends an image into their head of their bombs all blowing up in an instant.
As the xulgath shrieks in terror, Niksi sees a faint outline of his vision: another xulgath bomber, but far more powerful!
"Who are you! What are you doing here?!" Rova calls out as she tries to restrain Thkrull. She quickly casts a spell on him as she waits for answers, healing the elephant's wounds.
Prism giggles as she mimics Rova as she tries to act a bit tougher than she truly is. "Yea! Whoare..you? Whatareyou..doinghere?" She calls up the hill as she keeps slipping.
The xulgath stammers. "My...my name is Thaskar Blood-Boiler. Sarvel Ever-Hunger assigned us here. We are guarding this tower so Thesseka can do her experiments on the orb."
"What kind of experiments? Who's Thesseka?"
"Thesseka! She's a powerful alchemist. I don't know what the experiments are, but she said something about 'draining the orbs.' She rarely comes out of the upper floors of the tower. The other clutch," as he gestures to one of the fallen sword-wielding xulgaths, "think she has magical traveling powers and leaves the tower by other means, but I think she just gets caught up in her experiments."
"Are there more of you? If we go up to find and stop her, is anything else going to try to stop us?"
”There’s no more xulgaths inside; she wouldn’t let us in. I can’t tell you what else is in there.”
As you tend to your injuries outside, nothing comes out of the tower to attack you. You investigate the outside of the tower.
Rova, you look in the spring basin and notice something glinting in the mud.
You found a small gold idol of Aroden worth 100 gp. The idol bears an axiomatic rune, which can be transferred to a weapon just as though the idol were a runestone (although the idol isn’t destroyed in the process).
Prism, you take a look through the bombers' campsite.
You find a greater cheetah elixir, formulas for a bleeding spines snare and a bomb snare, and 67 sp for some game of chance involving chipped pieces of stone.
Unset, you check out the north platform, by where the skirmishers were.
You find a pile of 20 stone javelins.
