Round 6
The guardian swipes at Kazko.
Kazko struggles to make any landing blows that seem to just chip at the consteuct.
Round 7
Kazko takes it up a notch and is able to connect with all his attacks and tear chunks out of the construct. It falls to the ground in a pile, but more scrab like insects emerge.
Round 8
The scarabs form into a new swarm!
Round 8
With no way to fight it, Davod retreats from the swarm. "Lady Pharos! I believe this one needs your attention!!"
Round 8
She shouts to the group, "I am holding up the wall of flame bring them through it!"
You also see Sasha and Aukan draw more swarms towards the wall once you go through.
Carpet comes down and scoops up Davod.
The suli laughs with surprise as Carpet carries him to safety.
Round 7
Hiding next to the opaque wall of fire she channels to heal her allies and herself.
She moves through the flames to destroy the swarm...
Round 8
Hiding next to the opaque wall of fire she channels to heal her allies and herself.
She comes back through the wall of flames.
Soon enough you have Aukan, Sasha, Nima and likely Kazko running through the wall of fire to destroy the swarms together. Nima continues to channel healing the group as needed.
All the swarms and guardians are dead. The room feels eerily quiet.

Round 11
Round 11
"Woah! Settle down now we came to see your boss. We will kill you all if we need to but would choose to talk. You can kill us after if you think you can."
Round 11
The shaitens move forward upon the stone walkways still holding their weapons just not pointed at you. One of them says, "We will listen to what you have to say. Obberreck should be here soon enough, ah yes here he comes."
Obberrek does indeed ascend the stairs at a high velocity followed by four more shaitens.
Davod and Carpet lands near Sasha. "Yes. Gentle shaiten. We come in peace."
Round 13
"Master they say they want to speak with you. But your guardians are disperesed and they hold
Oberrreck glares at you but does not attack, "Release my Major Domo and explain yourselves."
Camel dung! Davod screamed at himself internally. The Major Domo will tell how I asked to keep her as a slave! We're done for! But we've fought out of worst, I think..? Time to put on the best show of my life!!
"Master Obberreck! Thank you for seeing us! Your Major Domo helped helped us against stone guardians to reach here. We seek to release her back to your care."
He seems open to the idea. No threats or commands given. Pharos unflurls the rope and lets the Major Domo go.
"Now explain yourselves."
"Master Obberreck, we come seeking an alliance with yourself and all denizens of Kakishron. We have secured the help of the smith, the proteans, Dilix Mahad, and now you. We wish to mend the scroll which we have started with wishes and will continue to fix with wishes. My sister Pharos Alexandra is an efretti and is working on a fix for the scroll. We know you are most likely happy staying here and making this your domain and we won't interpose on that. Give us the protean you hold and you will not be disturbed for years. Unless you wish to leave in which we will gladly help you with that."
"Yes. We would understand any need to return to The Elemental Plane of Earth after this incarceration."
"We are fine here. Take the protean and warn them that any other intrusions will find a similar threat."
He releases the protean with a wave of his hand, it falling into Alexandra's grasp.
Davod continues to bow and back away from the shaiten. "Thank you. Thank you very much", the suli chuckled pleasingly.
"Quick! Let's get out of here before Desna's Luck fails", the thief whispered to the others.
Carpet quickly picks up Davod, flying him up.
Aukan picks up Kazko, Nima, and Sasha, then flies up on burning wings of flame.
Pharos flies up the slowest.
Soon, your group is out of the pyramid-like structure.
"So back to the boat or what?!" He asks the group. "Do we have anything else to do on this island? We need to pickup Kalypso... anything else?"
"Not to my knowledge", Davod answers. "Let us gather our group back up and leave. Lady Pharos, what else do we need to do to leave this prison plane?"
"You can use a wish and try to make a gate to get out. Ask the Protean forces to see if they can send you through one of their portals. Or what I would prefer is to spend another week here and get this scroll fixed." She relays the options she is aware of.
"I vote for sticking around and fixing the scroll with wishes, we could go to the Azer and craft in the given time?" He states his opinion and a suggestion to kill time.
"I vote we wait for the wishes. I could use the time to start crafting again." She states her opinion and welcomes the time.
"I vote we wait for the wishes. I could use the time to train some, hunt some creatures and get stronger." She states her opinion and welcomes the time.
"Yes. I agree with Kazko", Davod nodded. "Hunting with you all has always been profitable thus far."
"Let me go around and see where we can hunt some gnolls or bigger prey. Head West and I will meet you there." He states before gathering Sasha into his arms, then flying up into the sky with his fiery wings.
----
He lands and lets down Sasha. "Alright we have a small gnoll camp in the trees, further north there is an oasis with plenty of things to hunt. If we go along the coast it looks like we can hunt some large crabs and gillmen. So shall we stick together and circumvent the whole island looking for things to kill?"
The group leaves the shaiten's pyramid and head to the West. Aukan returns as you can barely see the edge of the forest.
The suli follows the others quietly.
The living flame is a beacon even in the afternoon as she flies over the sand.
She is in front of the two trying to be quiet moving over the sand.
On the walk before Aukan returns, the sand around Nima seems to explode. Large snake like creatures erupt from the ground and attack.
She nimbly dodges the attacks but is soon surrounded by even more of the nest of sand eels.
The suli lets pout a little shout of surprise as he rushes to aid Kakzo and Nima.
