The monster's maddening gaze is now fixated on your eyes, as savoring your final submission; and as its coils tigthen around your limbs and your waist, its lips part to reveal a gaping, hungry throat, flooding in sweet-scented saliva.<br/><span style="color: #FF00FF">"HsssMIIINEeeh..."</span><br/>'Clunk'<br/><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">Alyssa</span></span>, the distinct sound of metal against metal wakes you from your blissful slumber - yes, you<span style="font-style: italic">awake</span>in wet and scented darkness, horribly realizing you've lost your senses and - you secure the grip on your shortsword just one moment before it falls off. You can't see it, but the sound that woke you was a dagger thrown by Jules at the creature, which missed its target and hit one of the surrounding cages. And you were<span style="font-style: italic">almost</span>losing your sword...<br/>As you can feel, and the others can see, you've been swallowed by the monster down to your waist. It is<span style="font-style: italic">tight</span>in there, and the more bitter scent is everywhere. Your lower body and forearms are dangling from its mouth, and the monster's tongue - truncated, yet still long - is wrapping you left leg. In a desperate attempt, you try to free your arm enough to slash at the monster - an action that succeeds only partially. The constriction doesn't allow you to strike with enough force, but you sense you're wounding it -  its scream surrounds you, vibrates all through you, shocking and deafening, while everything around you shakes horribly - you feel thrown back and forth and you lose your grip on the sword.<br/><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">Salla and Jules,</span></span>you witness the horrible scene, as the submitted Alyssa is rapidly swallowed gulp by gulp, her upper body almost entirely disappearing in the creature's throat. All of a sudden the previously senseless body of the girl livens up and even manages to seriously wound  the monster, which screams and shakes violently, making her lose her sword...<br/><span style="color: #FF0000">(Jules, you managed to remove almost all of the slime by now, while Salla, you recovered a little more - )</span><span style="color: #FF0000"><br/>[A side note to Alyssa - with your roll, you were Charming enough to convince the creature, but not Wise enough to resist the scent <img alt=";)" src="./images/smilies/wink.gif" title="Wink"/> ]</span>
