With the cloud of noxious gas hovering over the chokepoint leading to the kitsune from the south, the prospects of other party heavy hitters coming that way was... small, at best; with Eiyre and Albali both as spellcasters, they know that their job must be to ease the path of their own brawlers towards the kitsune before she can pull any more tricks from her tails. One elf holds a bow and gapes awkwardly at Ambrosia still; the other two though, the humans with strong claws... they could put even Gorun down if they had too much time with the bull-headed monk. Thus, with one stunned, they had to focus on the other, and they move quickly and in unison to remove that threat. Eiyre goes first, squeezing between the breakfast-laden table and the wall. The human's focused on Gorun, but he turns to Eiyre at the last second with an irritated look on his face as she grabs at his very firm, powerful upper arm. He's warm, warmer than he should be, but she could help change that. Focusing, she begins to spray painful life-sapping energy into the man through her grip, earning a howl of pain for her reward. The other hand comes up to try to tear her face off, but... Albali, steadily moving forward, sends up to topple onto his back with consciousness quickly cut off at a hex.<br/><br/>"Mmm." The kitsune sings. "Such disappointing results from the humans, with one stunned, one asleep, and one eaten- perhaps my elven children can do better?" She glances again at Xarithe with a twinkle in her eyes, and croons, "Of course, nobody here'd want to hurt poor little me, without a friend in the world..." and sure enough, as she sings it, everyone can fear a momentary and alien<span style="font-style: italic">revulsion</span>to the idea of lifting a hand against this woman. The elves, though, flush, back away from the menagerie of attacks. Up north, the one who had cast fires an arrow into Gorun's leg, drawing still more blood and adding to the pain from his claw wound- the other two seek to rescue their ally from the snake's jaws. Not far from Xarithe, they raise their bows and send a pair of sharp arrows at the snake's head. One bounces harmlessly off the bath the serpent's sheltered behind, but the other lodges into Sira's neck. This time, a worrying amount of pain color's her hiss of outrage, the numerous small blows starting to wear her down in earnest.<br/><br/>[[<span style="font-style: italic">Actions</span><br/><div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Eiyre reminds me that I forgot to make clear that the tables and baths are difficult terrain, but it doesn't affect Eiyre's move anyway!
