<br/>Aria nodded grimly, watching Karsus's skeletonized body tucked into Kass's extradimensional storage, and then she scowled at the black pyramid. "Agreed...by the time I loot all the bodies out here I should finish regenerating. Thanks for blinding the giantess; I was worried about having to fight her while still injured from the sky battle...and, Hells, while looting I could use a minute to catch my breath!" Even as she spoke, the ghastly chain-whip welts on her face continued to soften from red to pink to her usual ivory complexion.<br/><br/>She looted the scattered bodies of the mindflayers and kytons (which'd landed upon and slid down all four sides of the pyramid), as well as the giantess (no small task, shodding a body of such size from plate armor), by which time Anya would be regenerated enough to be reawoken to consciousness. Curious about their haul so far, Aria opened the giantess's backpack before storing it within her own, relating what she found within - her face glowing as she did so.<br/><br/>"Blink again to get within the pyramid - although I guess Anya can't - or would you prefer to dimension door us into it?" she asked Kass, and Anya also, "So - do you intend to go back inside within us, or would you like to go into the safety of Siwa?" Aria drew Anya's gaze to the westward-flowing River of Shadows just to their north. "It's only be three or four hours walking, and if you stay along the river's edge you can't miss it."<br/><br/><br/><br/>lol, it's not that we do a bad job of protecting people - it's just that most characters in Faerun are not super high level like our PCs, so their HP seem rather fragile (as in, like, single-digits) compared to the attacks of anything remotely threatening to Kass and Aria.<br/><br/>w/i giantess's handy haversack:<br/>3 magic staves<br/>60,000 in gold, gems, jewelry<br/><br/>We have enough XP to level up if you wish. Double-level, actually.
