Episode 2 Scene 1 The Journey North

Shump swings at one as it tries to flee.

Seeing one of the amorphous beings skitter by him, Egret uses it as an opportunity to attack with his scimitar, slashing at the creature before it has a chance to assault anyone else.

"Yes, Ugly Yellow Jelly"

Brindel moves in the room and places himself between the "ugly yellow jelly" and Lex. He holds his shield and axe ready to respond to the creature.

Seeing the gelatinous amber blobs quickly retreating from them, Egret hesitantly pauses his swing. The druid sees no point in attacking something that is fleeing, even if at the same time he knows that nothing stops a fleeing enemy from regrouping and attacking again. But these blobs don't seem as something that would use such tactics, not with their disorganized behavior - they seem like something driven by instinct. They didn't even hurt anyone yet, if not for the lack of trying, and Egret finds himself unwilling to pursue them.

So, the druid lowers his weapon and lets the blobs skitter by him unhindered. Instead, he raises his hand to summon a small ball of fire above it, providing more illumination in addition to Lex's spell - and perhaps to discourage the blobs from turning back.

They must be going there for a reason, thinks Brindel. He looks at the wall to determine why.
