Case 1: Victims at the park

Branches fall on the spiders, causing them to pause just long enough for Ajay and Seth to line up shots. The two of them manager to kill their spiders before they bite anyone (so no harm inflicted back). The last spider, the one that had bitten Seth, sees the situation and looks to be retreating to a tree. There is only a moment before it is out of view. You get a bad feeling it isn't just setting up to attack from the tree top, but to retreat to its mother, who will either appear soon or perhaps tell its mother that you are here.

Based on the current situation, with Ajay and Seth recoiling from their shots, Margaret is the only one who notices in time to have a chance before it is gone. If she can inflict 2 harm with her next action, she will kill it before it retreats.

Megs sends a bolt of darkness at the fleeing spider. "Not so fast creepy!" She calls out.

Margaret conjures shadow tendrils to stab through the spider, which dies halfway up the tree. However, she loses control momentarily and one of the tendrils slaps her just before it disappears.

After things call down, you notice a bed of flowers over where the long range spiders had been. They appear to match the description of the fey lilly

Ajay recovered himself from the assault of the spiders and went close to examine the flower. Crouching down and carefully comparing the characteristics, he took a picture and started harvesting the flowers. "Let's not waste time here; we have the flowers, so let's return to Infirmary and start preparing the concoction. The more time we spend here, the more chances that we might be ambushed."

OOC: So, Ajay will be harvesting enough flowers to make atleast three concoctions of this anti-Spider Shepherd serum. Do I need to roll for it?

Seth watches over Ajay as he collects the flower that they need for the ritual, and then leads them all back to the van.

You carefully retrace your steps and manage to avoid any webs that would act as alarm systems for the inhabitants. You arrive back at the van without worry. You now have enough components to attempt one big magic to create the monster's weakness. Staying here could result in a scouting minion noticing you, so where do you want to go to conduct the hour ritual?

After plucking the flower Meg's gives it a quick sniff. "We should move somewhere to do this. I don't think we need to head back to the infirmary. Anyone know anywhere nearby? A restaurant with a private room? Empty warehouse?"
