Zeldrith manages to breathe slightly easier, though he's still in critical condition.
Arrian draws upon divine inspiration to attack the goblin rider:
Arrian, drawing the last of his strength, draws power from Cayden Cailean, swings this club and hits the goblin right in the jaw. A loud crack can be heard and the goblin falls on the ground, clearly dead.
The other goblins, watch the scene in horror, seeing their strong leader fall. The goblin chanter seems to have expended all his power, and this removes the extra courage from the goblins. They scurry off, trampling each other, screaming.
Arrian uses his wand of curing.
All are awake and breathign hard.
Donimah breathes a sigh of relief as the battle ends and everyone's lives are saved, then thinks a moment.
"HEY, 'FRIEND!' YOU STILL DOWN THERE?!" She calls after the human Juriya had charmed, hoping he hadn't wandered back to Nualia by this point. "The battle's over if you wanna come back!"
Juriya coughs and sputters as she transforms back into human form, no longer needing to bite at foes she flanks.
"Don't you think he might be pissed at us? You know that guy?"
Ano bolts to the downward stairs, peering into it with anger blazing in her eyes.
When an answer didn’t come, the blue arcane energy coming from the catfolk’s spots fizzled out, and she collapsed onto the floor. Her whole body trembled, but not from the wounds she obtained, or the exhaustion from the fighting.
Did she mean it…when she said I was…the worst…?
The second cry was not out of anger…but anguish.
“What are you doing?!” Cherry chirped, finally out of his hiding place once things settled down, “We have to get out of here!”
"Agreed with the bird. We need to flee. Now, before we get stabbed in the kidneys."
Juriya coughs and sputters as she transforms back into human form, no longer needing to bite at foes she flanks.
"Don't you think he might be pissed at us? You know that guy?"
Donimah sighs.
"Oh, he probably will be pissed at us. But I imagine some money would go a long way as an apology. Considering how he behaved when he considered us 'friends' I don't think he's a true believer in Nualia's cause. Besides, she'll probably stab HIM in the kidneys for failing her in this fight."
She looks down the hall.
"You're probably right. Where should we go, though? Straight back to Sandpoint? Or do you wanna make camp nearby and hope Nualia doesn't send a warband to try and hunt us down?"
"Sandpoint will have healers . We don't want to run into a situation like that again. I may be able to heal myself in a pinch, but I haven't tested it. I'm just as likely to throw up as heal myself. Not risking giving any of you shady CLWs from me."
Donimah raises an eyebrow at Juriya's statement, but doesn't say anything.
The man is currently out of earshot.
He was, indeed, not very keen on the mission, so he may become an ally.
The upper floor is now empty.
