One of the plant demons staggers as the life leaves his body.  Before he can muster the energy for an attack, though, the mermaid's sword finally does him in, cutting him down the middle.  The two halves are then squashed into jelly before the elf can even make her way forward.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, the dragontaur brings her jaws down, but the last demon left standing thrashes his vines at her.  It's not powerful enough by a longshot, but it's just strong enough to give his comrade a chance to force himself back.  With one more forceful push, he staggers out of Lang's grasp, free again!<br/><br/>Cadrick pauses for a moment, taking a breath.  Then he turns to Ceara, smiling.  "Th-thanks," he tells her.  "Glad you and everyone are safe."<br/><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;">Plant 4 squished.</div></div></div>
