Loathe to attack Valdis further, Walhart grabs him by the arm. "Keep trying! We'll get you freed up!"
Light glows from his arm, much to his own surprise, and Valdis' wounds heal slightly.

Valdis sucks in a lot of air. "Wow. That was an unpleasant experience." It takes a few more breaths until Valdis breathing calms down. "Thank you for saving me there."
"I'm totally unprepared to fight such a thing." This is an unpleasant realization, which doesn't get better by not being able to change that in the near future.

"You have my gratitude just as well, Valdis. Somehow, this piece of parchment has been more harrowing than most of the other things I've encountered here."
He pats him on the shoulder. "You're not alone now. Between the four of us, I think we should be able to stand up to whatever this place will throw at us."

"I like your confidence." Valdis replies with a smile. "I feel misplaced here. I'm used to fight minor undead, but that kind of specialization is not a big help here. To no one's surprise."
He picks up his staff. "Beating things with a stick also seems to work sub par here."
"But, I need to remember to keep a positive outlook, like you do. Between the four of us we can take by the horns what comes our way."
"Another thing - because it tends to disappoint people I meet, and it's in situations like these, that it comes up. I serve Pharasma, and wear her holy symbol proudly, but I can't do cure wounds spells. If I had to fight and got bruised, I simply went home and slept it off."

It takes to flight with Donovan in tow and drops him.
Donovan seems to fall for a terrifyingly long distance before landing where he started. This odd landing deals no physical damage, but deals 1d4 points of Wisdom damage instead.
The first time a creature experiences this fall, she may attempt a DC 15 Acrobatics check, earning 1 Clarity Point on a success.
