Syra reappeared inside the ring of blades, sinking her wakazashi into the cleric's exposed back.<br/><em>(Cleric takes 40 damage.)</em><br/><br/>Laura snapped her whip through the blade barrier to curl around the cleric's leg and yank her off her feet... and then drag her through her own curtain of whirling blades! And that was that, in a classic case of being hoist on her own petard.<br/><em>(Natural 1 on the reflex save. (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123696) Cleric takes 41 damage.)</em><br/><br/>Kimiko's wall of fire continued to burn away at the tree... but its surface glowed with a dull red sheen and the wood was unaffected by the flames licking it. Was this due to the effect of the cleric's last spell?<br/><br/><hr/><br/>The tentacles in the husk of the tree slithered snakelike upwards and away from the fire below. As the last of the appendages fled upwards into the dark, out of sight and presumably out of the chamber somehow, peace descended upon the room once more.<br/><br/>The spells cast during the fight continued until their duration ran out, though. This was most important for the tentacle spell still fucking Syra and Tera, which built up in a predetermined, mechanical manner, with the sensations of force wrapping around their exposed thighs and flicking their folds and clits while the central shaft pumped their passages emotionlessly and unstoppably for a minute before the spell finally dissipated.<br/><em>(Syra and Tera take 28 more non-lethal damage before the spell ends and they are no longer sickened. (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123700))</em><br/><br/><hr/><br/>Without the pressure of combat, the party could investigate the remains of the fight and try to figure out what was going on if they wanted, or they could just move on otherwise.<br/><br/>Thanks to the last-second fireproofing, the dead tree escaped the fate of being burnt up. The tentacles within had managed to escape though.<br/><em>(Perception or Knowledge (nature) checks would be appropriate for investigation.)</em><br/><br/>The enemy party and the rest of the women victims were still alive but just barely and unconscious, injured by the fighting or being dropped. Unless there was some intervention, they would pass on.<br/><em>(Perception or Heal checks would be appropriate for investigation. Interrogation is also an option if they are restored at least to consciousness.)</em><br/><br/>If some members of Zettai Ryouiki wished to switch levels, it might be worth searching for a way through the metal grate floor.<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Perception DC 20</div><div class="spoiler_body">In one corner of the room, the floor had a hidden trapdoor built into it. Once found, this allows the party to move back and forth between the two levels without backtracking through the cum sewer.</div></div><br/><br/>Finally, on the upper level there was a tunnel moving further on, and on the lower level a large pipe like the one they had entered by - for what it was worth, the cum in this one was only knee-high, a large portion of the liquid having been produced in this room.
