She would be rewarded with the feeling of her staff hitting the giant mantis again, and feeling the charge of magic lancing into the insect.  Then just as quickly as she’d gotten to the mantis… it was retreating.  She’d grit her teeth, glowering at the retreating creature, then turn and walk back to her discarded crossbow.  She’d catch sight of Gorun’s  glare, and his words angry words.  She’d turn those golden-brown eyes back towards him, giving him a cold look even as she flexes her left hand, which continues to glow with a pale blue light.<br/><br/>She is very, very tempted to send a scathing remark back to the bull, but as he stood by her and helped with the mantis, she swallows the retort and reaches down to collect her crossbow.  Making sure it wasn’t damaged, and that it was still loaded, she’d switch her staff to her glowing left hand, and hold the crossbow in her right.  Now, she thought to herself, she at least was prepared if more trouble arrived.<br/><br/>Then Albali was there, and healing her.  She would nod her thanks for the healing magic, and would take advantage of the second healing when offered.  The damned mantis had landed several good blows on her, as had those mandibles.  Still, even without the second healing, she’s in decent enough shape to defend herself now.<br/><br/>She would walk up to the fallen, deformed druidess… then immediately stumble backward, making a very disgusted sound!  It would seem that whatever force sickened those that approached the woman affected Turilia as well!  She’d lean on her staff, taking deep, calming breaths as she gave the unconscious woman a disgusted look.<br/><br/>There, she’d stand, a silent figure until Albali again speaks, and Turilia thinks of the rope she has attached to her backpack.  A small hint of a smile would reach the her lips, and she’d nod, ready to give up her rope should they decide to string up the disgusting cultist.  She does, however, make a mental note to ensure that if they do this, that the druidess gets gagged, both to prevent her from yelling and alerting other cultist, and to ensure she can’t cast spells that require speaking.<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;">http://orokos.com/roll/m-AlleyWayTC<br/>Fort Save to get near cultist lady: 8  <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/140286">http://orokos.com/roll/140286</a><!-- m -->.<br/>One charge left of Chill Touch still held.</div></div></div>
