Dropping a note here for Dak. I touched base with him earlier today and he's tested positive for COVID and has been sick and out of commission for awhile and he still remains sick. He said to let everyone know he'll be back when he recovers.

I talked to Dak earlier this week. He was sick with covid-like symptoms and wasn't feeling well. Hopefully he's getting better!
Prim sees blood fly out from Sarine as she is attacked. Knowing she was already injured, she groans in exasperation as she runs headlong towards danger again. "This was supposed to be for my emergency use only wand!" she complains as she uses yet another charge to heal her companions.
Finally able to heal herself, Prim uses the wand to try and get herself back to fighting shape once again.
"Aurelian!" Prim says through clenched teeth, forcing herself to move up behind him while she holds her bloody midsection. "One-second."
She groans and gives him a brief nod to continue.
"Don't have to tell me twice!" she tells Sarine, healing her with her wand first.
"Thanks!" Prim says in a pained cry as she limps back towards Tettia, bleeding from too many wounds to count. As she stumbles into the arcanist, she sees she's in equally bad of shape. She uses another charge from the wand on Tettia to keep her in the fight.
"There you go. Go help them!"
Primrose screams out as more rubble collapses on her. "Please make it stop doing that!" she shouts. If the faceless still stands after Sarine's actions, Primrose turns and tries to bury her blade into it to put it down.
If the creature is already down, she will use the wand on herself and move to check on those in the rear.
Catching sight of Aurelian's injuries even after Zay's healing, Prim notes the swashbuckler needs to stay on his feet if they are going to get through this alive. She slides up to him and uses her healing wand on him "Aurelian! Hold still for a quick second!" she notes in between verses of her song.
Primrose pops her wand into her hand from her wrist sheath and bops Zay with it.
She then moves up five feet in front of Tettia so that she can stay within sight of everyone, continuing to sing loudly.
Prim groans from the attack, but manages to get out of the way to avoid the worst of it. She immediately begins to sing and resume her inspiring melody while holding her standard in her hand.
I'm participating in Paizocon all next week with multiple games a day, so my posting will be slow. Please ding me on discord if I'm holding things up and I'll get a post in soonest.
"Phew!" Primose says, sliding to the ground after the combat is over. "That was... That was too much. Let's not do that again, please." she says, pulling her bloody hand away from the numerous holes poked in her body. She asks for the wand that Sarine uses when she's done with and patches up the remaining injuries she has.
"There! Good as new. Almost. Except I now have more holes in my clothing than I care for." Turning to Tettia, she asks "Can you repair these later?" Looking to Aurelian, she signals she's ready to continue on.
Still continueing to sing and hold her banner, she pulls out her wand and casts a healing spell on herself.
Primose screams when she get skewered by the faceless stalkers. She puts her hands over her wounds as blood pours out of her body and she staggers backwards, withdrawing as Sarine comes to her rescue. She stumbles behind Tettia and stops, looking over her shoulder back to Sarine.
Primrose hustles forward as she sings and raises the banner, also searching for another way up.
Looking at wall, she shakes her head no. Not happening. With no way up, Primrose just continues to sing and hold her flag, inspiring her companions.
Primrose looks back at Tettia and asks, "Do you have anything in that book of yours to help us get up there?"
Primrose tries to climb up the wall to follow Aurelian, but her climb skills are not as polished as she would like them to be.
Before he climbs up, Primrose dashes up to reach out and touch Aurelian's leg. She pauses her singing momentarily to state "Go be a hero." and casts a spell on him before resuming her banner holding and inspiring song once more.
Primose picks up her singing where she left off earlier, raising the standard with her left hand.
Primrose boasts "I employed some of Aurelian's fancy footwork and successfully dodged their attack to injure me, so I'm fine."
Prim listens for trouble, but finds nothing. "Let's move on then! We need to find them, quickly, before more come."
Longsword in her other hand, Prim walks up and tries to take a whack at the creature. Though she is trained in the blade, her attack is lackluster and doesn't come close to hitting it.
Primrose keeps singing, inspiring her allies to quickly put an end to these faceless being so that they could find and rescue the others.
"For the survivors!" she calls out, hoisting her standard and starting to sing a song to inspire her companions.
Prim gets excited when she insinuates her brother is inside. She grabs a hold of Aurelian's bicep loosely and says "Please save them. Please."
Primrose walks alongside Tettia to make sure she doesn't slip and fall, twisting an ankle in this disgusting forest. As they exit it, she points out something shiny in a building ahead. "What do you think that is? I do like shiny things, I'd like to check it out? Okay. good. We're agreed, let's go then." Primrose starts in the direction of The Shining thing.
Prim recognizes the danger and pulls her standard into her hand and hoists it while she sings While singing and raising the standard, she slips her dagger into her other hand just in case.
"Hollows!" Prim shouts in warning. "They are like wraiths but they feed off your ego.... Aurelian Fache, take care!" The bard then begins to break into song, inspiring her allies to remain strong in this trying time.
"Can you turn into something that flies across and can carry the rope? Maybe you could fly down and see if there is something interesting and we could climb down if so?" Prim asks, pulling out some silk rope from her pack.
Primose stands her ground that they should spend the time with the device and insists they not leave until they do.
Prim is torn. There is a sense of urgency because she wants to find her brother, alive. She also thinks that just perhaps they may be able to use this in their quest to find everyone somehow. "Maybe," she says, addressing the larger group "we should take the time to finish what we started here to get this operational. What if could help us in some fashion? It seems hasty to just leave it behind, no? What is an hour? We will go to bed one hour later tonight if need be to make up time?"
Primrose nods, following along. She listens to what the birds have relayed and frowns "I hope the big, shiny, fallen man doesn't decide to stand up and get aggressive."
Yawning and stretching when Tettia gathers her belongings, Primrose accidently releases a burst of air from her rear end. As the horn toots loudly, she sits up and looks at Tettia in shock. "Tettia! Say excuse yourself after passing gas in public dear." She faces the woman, doing her best not to burst out in laughter at the response on the arcanist's face.
Ah, Tettia. Nothing quite like her answers to wash away the pain of a swarm of biting creatures. Prim smiles with a wink "Oh, me? I'm all over the place. Tough to pin me down to one position, I think. Whatever is most comfortable at the time." She searches around for a good spot and unfurls a different banner from her pack, digging a hole in the ground and firmly burying the standard to stand upright. She announces to her group "This will help keep us safe tonight while we rest. I went to great pains to secure this before I came down here to ensure that if I had to be out in the wild, I would be protected."
"I am not feeling especially well from that attack earlier. I would like to rest here for the night, if you will all allow us to take a brief respite." Turning to Tettia she smiles "Tettia. Would you mind helping me setup my bedroll? I could use your expertise in selecting the most appropriate position."
Primrose nods "Understood. Should we come across such stones, we will endeavor to return the kindness you have shown us for sanctuary and entertain a trade.
"That's one hell of a family tree." Primrose remarks, whistling. "So you'd like our help in finding some more stone for you then, is that it?"
"I'm afraid I do not either. We are willing to willing to help, if need be, but perhaps you could explain to us if it is not too much trouble?" Primose adds to Aurelian's commentary.
I'm Primrose ;)
Primrose releases Tettia's arm and pats it gently, "Yes. All done. See, that wasn't so bad, was it." She motions for the others to do the same so that they can see that their wyrwood friend wasn't a faceless.
