Is the deal that he takes the stage 1 damage, but it doesn't last the prescribed round?

Knowing he's gravely harmed it, he figures it's best to press and see if he can end it.

Vekka nods at Sigurd as he draws his katana.
◆ Interact: draw weapon (grip 2-handed)
He hopes with a few well-placed strikes they can convince the spider to fall out of the tree. He imbues his blade with the flame and strikes!

He is not steady in his position up in the tree, and fearing for his own balance he plays it safe and misses with his thrust.

Hello. This is an FYI that I'll be away in nature starting this coming Friday 10/17, returning Sunday 10/19 when I will catch up and resume posting.
As always my hope is that since this is a weekend the disruption will be minimal to none. Bot as necessary.

Earlier before the climb...
The spirit pleaded with me as I pulled the axe out. Time is short. There was a second, opposing presence that I was able to supress.
He hands the axe to Kazuki.
--------------------
Back to the statue, Vekka suspects his more divine-attuned companions will need to take the lead here, but he does start by Detecting Magic.

Whoops, let's see if all that climbing even occurred :sweats:

It's okay Wu. We have time to figure this out. I think Vekka consoles her, but a little unsure.
He unconsciously runs his fingers along the scabbard of his katana while eyeing the tree.
Inspect the tree (DC 20 Nature): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
He looks up until he sees the statue's head. But first... the axe.
Seeing Sigurd not quite budge it, he figures he may as well try.
Retrieve the Axe (DC20 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31
When it breaks free he remarks to Sigurd I'm pretty sure you loosened it for me. Thank you.
He looks back up at the 75 foot climb and sighs.
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 ⇒ 10ft
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29 ⇒ 20ft
He starts up it quickly...
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14 ⇒ no progress
then slips slightly but catches himself...
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19 ⇒ 25ft
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 ⇒ 30ft

Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 ⇒ 60ft
He gets another burst of progress and then stops to center himself and keep control.
Effort and focus. Don't look down.
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 ⇒ 65ft
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19 ⇒ 70ft
Climb (DC 15 Athletics): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 ⇒ goal!
He takes a moment to affix his rope to a branch nearby that he judges as strong.
It's only 50 feet of robe, but if his companions can make it up the first, safer 25 feet of the climb, it's better than nothing.
He gives his friends a thumbs up before turning back to focus on the statue head, looking for signs of the haunt or curse.

If only all of our problems would crumble to dust at a tea party...
Vekka remarks, packing his tea kit back into his pack.
E13 sounds fine

I think we can get this arrangement back on track...

Vekka wonders if his katana could be used to cut... at least smaller pieces of wood. It would probably dull the blade...
What can we may an axe with (Survival, untrained): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Vekka sighs and decides that he should speed along the proceedings.
Here... I have some tea mixtures on me.
He pulls out something quite basic, readily available to travelers or soldiers.
I may as well see how this ends.

Kazuki Sato wrote: "Do we have a way to make them some tea? We can get water from the stream outside. We just need some tea leaves and a pot to boil it in." Tea? No... I wouldn't know anything about that.
--------------------
Vekka casually approaches the broken teapot to inspect it, but he's hoping they didn't hear his mutter and would prefer to not be noticed amidst the ongoing nonsense.

Vekka makes a mental note. "Just look" and readies his arcane eye.
In case it matters, or in case different magic tradition skills could help, Vekka could also detect magic just after they enter each room.
He's happy to take the suggestion of heading East.

Vekka would like to ask the ghost: How will we recognize the statues that seal other good spirits and how many are there to release?

Vekka exhales in relief.
Good job, all of you. So, I'm not formally trained in any of the things that would complete the purification. Could I be guided through helping, or should I just stay out of the way he asks while cleaning off and sheathing his sword.

I got back later than I expected last night and was pretty tired. Back!
Thanks for the botting!
Vekka quickly informs those around him of what he knows of the moment.
Not wanting to get to close to the trees arms, he calls upon the Void to harm life force of BLACK.

As his companions explain the creatures, Vekka slowly backs away. It seems they're going to be able to avoid a fight here.

Those three are likely to throw us into the next challenge immediately. A short rest sounds prudent.

I forget which/if squares were declared as difficult, but they all look pretty rough.

Urk!...That hurt.
Along with the hits he felt something else encroaching on his body. Thankfully he fought it off. He shakes it off and hopes to not have to think to hard about it any further.

Vekka is wary, and gives Kazuki a worried look when he accepts. He turns back to the monks.
Does your "challenge" include hostile elements and existential threats?
He carefully, slowly re-shealths his katana, just to see if any of the armed monks will do likewise.

He does not yet see what Aunti-Wu sees, but he certainly believes her.
"Twitchy" means they're likely to lose restraint soon.
Vekka suspects his blade will be put to work again soon.

Oh yes. I didn't realize I needed to post again. Vekka has been ready since this poist:

He bathes as many a bird would in a stone birdbath. He tells is friends to give a wide radius for when he shakes the water out out of his feathers.

Vekka grits against the pain, but he's rather focused on how the last thing he tried actually worked. And she's still right there. So, he refocuses and tries again. His eyes glow slightly as he does this...

Vekka rushes forward onto the raft, with the sudden anxious feeling that their time to harm her may be running out.
◆ Stride 10ft
As the raft rocks up and down, returning to equilibrium, he begins a spell that imbues his blade. Peering through the mists he raises it up with both hands and slashes it downward in her space...

Vekka isn't ready to approach her just yet. Right now it feels like bait. He continues to stand back and form frost bubbles over her with his spells.

Vekka takes the opportunity to drop the ropes and sprint onto the doc for want of stable ground.
◆ Stride 15ft
For now he frowns at Yami's plea.
It's easier to do things yourself than rely on... that trust issues
He points a clawed finger at Iogaka. An orb of biting cold coalesces around her, freezing her body.
I think she's within the 60ft: 35ft away xy but not sure how far off of the ground she is.

Vekka looks left and right, tracing the edges of the lake with his gaze.
There must be a way around...

Bleary-eyed, Vekka scratches the feathers atop his head as they get up to break camp.
What is going on here...?
Arcana: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13
--------------------
Then you might have to wait at the bottom here for us! I see a lot of water around! Vekka quips at Yami.
He doesn't have a better idea than Sigurd right now.
Side access. Sounds right.

Not more screams...
He doens't feel the need to close the distance just yet, so he tries his aim again with another bolt of fire.

Something is off about his aim after waking up for the second time this night.
Regardless, he takes the residual energy into this blade.

Vekka wakes up with a start, fully disoriented for not being his intended wake time in the morning.
Two nights in a row we are disturbed... wait, is this the same night?
He stands up and looks around to gain his bearings.
◆ Stand
and quickly spots the strange, winged skeleton.
Another one that I hope burns easily!

This is a Shui Gui! Vekka shouts to the others.
He then proceeds to share their defenses with the team:
