It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Scanlan Shorthalt, a gnome bard . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, With the giant asleep, Keyleth has enough time to cast Geas and bring it under her control. When it wakes up, it agrees to stay with them peacefully and help attack K'Varn when they are ready.
DM: Attempts to break free of grapple, can't do, so he's stuck where he is. He currently has nothing in range to attack.
Player: Except for me.
DM: No, you're 15 feet below, he doesn't have range on you at the moment. He tries to take a swing at you, but partially because he's so high up, he cannot move. And because you are so small, you literally just stand there as the swing-- The wind blows your hair back a little bit.
Player: Ooh!
DM: But does not find purchase on your body.
Player: I'm a little dainty gnome!
DM: Completely wasted its turn, well done. All right, so that brings us to you, again. Actually, no. It now goes to everyone else because they have all arrived on the scene now.
Player: Right, good, thank god.
DM: You guys are all starting to appear. We'll say--
Player: Don't kill the giant!
DM: Over this area.
