As the plant was cut in half, the occupents(those who had been in the swamp,river and forest) were taken out of the vines as they fell limp.In the illusion,the Magnus,the vines,the quicksand,and the Quar,which were all about to strike at their opponents,suddenly stopped,the atmosphere wavering again.Then they disappeared with the group paralyzed.Then they started to wake.Their wakening came slow as each had been close to death within the illusion.First they entered a state of darkness as the illusion faded away and then the people themselves were in the cave,their eyes needing to get used to the poor lighting.The plant lay on the floor,it's vines scattered all over the room.(That should be good...for the moment.)
