Just as Iman is about to charge towards the tentacle flinging Kit about in the air, he hesitates seeing the two grubs are now in his way. Iman walks closer to his allies to position himself just out of the reach of the grubs, centering himself between the two in the middle rank, so that he can fend off any of these three if they decide to melee attack anyone in the party.

OOC:

Iman is centralized in the middle of the grubs' positions, about 7.5' behind the front rank grub, and 7.5' in front of the middle rank grubs.

Thinking that he has the grubs somewhat in check now, he focuses back at the tentacle grappling Kit. Iman pulls out a javelin and hurls it towards the lower half of the tentacle.

Seeking to free Aegar from his predicament Raishe decides on taking as hard a swing as he can at the tentacle with his mace.

After drawing blood, the tentacles and grubs immediately swarm against Aegar. He manages to fend them all off except for the last tentacle, which gets a strangle hold on his leg.

OOC:

Aegar takes 6 bludgeoning damage and is grappled, which means you can't move.

Raishe's mace smashes into the base of the tentacle assailing Aegar, but it maintains it hold.

OOC:

Pageflap, Barendd, and Aegar's turns are next :)

Seeing all the grubs and tentacles group up together in a close and clustered crowd, Pageflap takes his chance. Deciding to risk another surge, he materializes an ice knife and throws it into them, focusing his aim so that the knife lands at least 5 feet away from his allies and 5 feet within as many enemies as he can get, while also trying to get the knife to pierce the healthiest looking enemy.

He'll show these grubs not to pick a fight with a bird.

Seeing the tentacles and grubs centralizing Barendd turns his attention to the mass oozing the glowing slime.
Those surges seem weird, let's see if we can put a stop to it.
Barendd rears back, arching his back to slam two blows with his handaxes at the glowing mass.

Pageflap's ice knife crashes into the healthiest of the grubs, and fractures into a thousand shards, shining violet in the mass's glow. They impale the other two grubs, the ice spreading through their bodies and causing them to shriek as they die. You notice, much to Aegar's relief, that they don't explode into acid after freezing to death.

OOC:

2 grubs down, 1 to go!

The mass surges again with the casting of the spell and is now quite bright, and throbbing like a heart beat. Barendd wastes no time and wails on the mass, his axes hitting the thing with sicking thuds. Bioluminescent blood sprays all over the tunnel.

With the tentacle releasing him, Kit's initial panic has eased, though he still backs away from it. He begins to notice how the creature that struck him has been reacting to magic. I say, Pageflap! That squiddy thing seems to pulse brighter when magic is used! What do you make of it?

OOC:

Kit's not proficient in Arcana, so he's taking the Help Action to give Pageflap advantage on an Arcana check to see if he can figure out what this thing's doing and how it can be defeated. If this doesn't use up an Action, Kit will re-cast Dancing Lights.

Pageflap is torn from his internal victory gloating by Kit's voice. He was already planning on taking quick inventory in his head on what he knew about those grubs, but the thespian's call urged him to really focus on the task. He did spend a bit of time last night and this morning flipping through pages to see what he knew, but he may have heard more about them in the past....

He starts preparing to look it up when he has the chance.

OOC:

This move to be performed on Round 4

Seeing how Kit is now free, Iman leaves Pageflap and Kit to handle the weakened tentacle at the rear.

Iman turns to face the front rank to see the last grub within his reach. He waits a brief second just to catch a bit of a shine coming off the mass to give him a clearer sight to make a piercing attack.

Two tentacles remain, one at the back rank (grappling Aegar), and one at the front. A single grub remains alive, engaged with Aegar.

Iman's first strike is goes wide, but pulls the tentacle out of position. He takes full advantage, driving the butt end of his halberd into the unprotected base of the gangly thing, and the whole abomination dissolves into ash. At the same time, Kit brings the Dancing lights back on. Even those with Darkvision breathe a bit easier, as the soft warm light dispels the vileness atmosphere of the harsh, violaceous glow of the mass.

With the Ice Knife and Dancing Lights spells, the cancerous mass now throbs feverishly, like a heartbeat of a creature in full sprint. Fluid spurts from all directions, but it glows so brightly now that it competes with Kit's Dancing Lights.

The remaining grub continues to spit at Aegar, while the tentacle whips around to Barendd to defend the mass. Aegar holds back the grub with his shield, but the tentacle snags Barendd while he is pulling an axe out of the oozing mass.

Barendd takes 5 bludgeoning damage and is grappled.

Jacketch, you can use part of your turn to communicate what you have learned, but you have only enough time for a sentence or two (a round is 6 seconds)

Panic grips Pageflap'll heart upon learning of what the mass may be. Pointing at it, he plays the clanging bells of alarm the party heard when they entered the village with the bandits in tow. "Are the eggs ready to hatch yet?" he says in a voice several years dead, but useful now for warning his allies of the mass's imminent danger.

Eggs? That doesn't seem good. It pulses when spells are cast. If we can I'd focus on physical attacks gents.
Barendd attacks the eggs

Barendd's attacks are foiled as the final tentacle pulls at him, causing his axes to miss their mark.

Kit notices that the growth surges seem to happen with the casting of the spell. At a glance, there is no noticeable affect of the continuation of the Dancing Lights spell.

OOC:

Aegar and Raishe are up next. 1 tentacle and 1 grub left, and people are attacking the mass as well.

Reconsidering casting any more healing spells ,fear strikes at Raishe the moment he hears Pageflaps warning. No more spells or we'll be overrun! Wasting no time Raishe takes a swing at the remaining tentacle.
