Alice is frustrated by the lack of effect her attacks have on this beast. She grabs the last firebomb that is strapped to Cat's pack, races around the bulette and throws it into its mouth. Alice disengages as bonus action and runs East with the rest of her movement towards Yulya.

Cat immediately follows up with a normal strike of her greatsword flanking with Alice. Cat gives M3gan Panther temp HP and moves away from the bulette's snout to avoid getting firebombed.

Nya don't just take stuff from other people Nya!

Seeing the ineffectivity of attacks Yulya approaches 15 ft to get within range and casts BANE on the zombie bulette. Then she goes back to her previous position.

[Round 6][42 seconds]

Seeing the ineffectivity of attacks Yulya approaches 15 ft to get within range and casts BANE on the zombie bulette. Then she goes back to her previous position.

[CHA vs DC15 1d20-2=7]

ZB falls under the effect of Bane.

Alice grabs the last firebomb that is strapped to Cat's pack, races around the bulette and throws it into its mouth. Alice disengages as bonus action and runs East with the rest of her movement towards Yulya.

Cat immediately follows up with a normal strike of her greatsword flanking with Alice. Cat gives M3gan Panther temp HP and moves away from the bulette's snout to avoid getting firebombed.

M3gan Panther gains [2d8=8 THP]

M3gan Panther gets out of the way when she sees Alice with the firebomb, leaving the Bulette to strike anyone it chooses. Awaiting the result of the actions.

[HIT vs AC22 1d20+1d4+7=(22,CM)][DMG 2d6+5+1+2RAGE=18 Magic Slashing]

[AIM vs AC22 1d20+1d4+3=(10,18)][DEX vs DC15 1d20+2-1d4=6][DMG 3d6=13 + 1d6=6 for 1d4=4 turns]

The beast takes Cat's hit, reeling and near death, and though not in the mouth, without protection from the sticky flames of the firebomb, the beast roasts in flames and finally falls to its injuries. The nature of the animation process makes this carcass unable to reanimate again.



M3gan Panther runs East with Cat.

The cave falls silent other than the crackling sound of the fire which will last 4 more turns.

Yulya is relieved something finally worked and the undead beast was finally defeated. But the relief doesn't last long as she remembers there are still 2 flaming skulls out there.
Let us find the skulls - maybe we can still deal some damage while my spells are in effect! Stay together and do not split up! We have no chance against even one skull unless we combine all our powers!

Yulya dashes east but stays behind the others

Alice happily dances around the burning carcass



See!? It worked! Sorry for taking your firebomb without asking, but in contrast to you I didn't have any other options. My normal attacks don't do anything, what a blunder. I need to get my old form back...

Seeing the others go, Alice uses her full 120ft dash movement to run ahead east and look for the flaming skulls.

Cat slaps Alice on the head (with zero force)
Nyahaha it was a joke Nya! Well done Nya!

Cat once more gives M3gan Panther temp HP and also dashes east with the others

[Round 7][36 seconds]

Cat once more gives M3gan Panther [2d8=7] temp HP and also dashes east with the others.

Alice uses her full 120ft dash movement to run ahead east and look for the flaming skulls.

Yulya dashes east but stays behind the others.

M3gan Panther cautiously follows Alice.

After Traveling 80ft (out of 120ft) East, Alice stops to avoid the lightning affected area. The skulls are nowhere to be found, likely they've escaped up one of the myriad tunnels.

[Alice may move an additional 40ft this turn.]

Seeing that Alice wants to continue North Yulya gives her the ok to go.
Let us search towards the North and explore the areas where we have not been! But be careful! There might still be traps! Remember there is one at the west entrance to this room where we came from!

Yulya dashes northeast again staying behind the others.

Cat continues to dash NE, following Alice as far as she can
Don't run off too far Nya! There might still be enemies Nya!

Oh right - I totally forgot this one!
Carefully staying away from the sparks of the Forge, Alice dashes North, on to the corpse of the ghoul up North. Then she looks around for traps or enemies and waits for Cat to catch up.
Let me scout ahead, I'm the stealthiest!


Alice quietly sneaks West with her remaining movement, looking for unexplored tunnels.

[Round 8][30 seconds]

Alice dashes North, on to the corpse of the ghoul up North. Then she looks around for traps or enemies and waits for Cat to catch up.

Cat continues to dash NE, following Alice as far as she can

Yulya dashes northeast again staying behind the others.

Alice quietly sneaks West with her remaining movement, looking for unexplored tunnels.

There are plenty, as she works her way along the crystalline walls, she sees many tunnels leading in all directions, this was a well mined area, a central hub of sorts to follow cracks and link other loads. It would take hours if not days to map them all, she can't detect any traps and no sign of a fire wreathed glowing skull.



M3gan Panther finds Ashley's pack, carries it toward one of the tunnels and lays down near it, quite bored.

Finding nothing, Alice returns to the others.
Damn, we will never find them this way. What do we do now?
Oh yeah, while I was gone, I was in some other plane with Nezzner. Beautiful garden, warm and green. There was an elf, maybe one of your gods and 2 catgirls having a tea party. The elf god just cut Nezzner's head off and the catgirls gave it to me. I tried to explain about my ship to him but I don't think he listened. Then he sent me back saying it was not my time or something. Weird. No idea what that amulet Nezzner grabbed was supposed to do. Ohh and his body was sucked into the Negative Plane by a dark vortex. Somehow like Ashley's cats despawning but much stronger. Maybe he was cursed or sold his soul to a demon. No idea.



Haa, I wanna go back. It was warm and green and sunny and there were trees and flowers! What are we even doing here? Where is Mormesk?

Cat half-heartedly listens to Alice's story, her ears briefly perking at 'catgirl' but otherwise determines this doesn't concern her.


Nya this is no good Nya! Do you think they will come back when the spell is over Yulya Nya? Let's keep on exploring in the mean time Nya!
Cat scans the surroundings and follows Alice wherever the party is going next. She stays within Emboldening Bond range but a bit spaced apart from Alice so they can cover a larger area.

Yulyas eyes widen upon hearing Alices casual story of traveling to the divine realms
You experienced WHAT? Was that Lord Corellon you met? How and why did Nezzner teleport there - just to be killed?
Yulya remembers seeing a similar scene with Ashley having a tea party with her goddesses when she first died. With a shiver she imagines what could have happened if Alice had tried to cut off Corellons or the mysterious divine catgirls ears or molested them otherwise on a whim.



A-anyways good work! The Gods are with us! You will need to give a detailed report later - also to Ashley when... if she returns.
Yulya glances over to the sleepy Panther with unease.

For now let us continue exploring South. Should the skulls reappear - someone...
Yulya looks at Alice
...will have to lure them into the cave-in trap and trigger it. It is our only realistic chance of taking them down. We should have a little time until they stop fleeing and then they will have to come back. I doubt we will find them by chance but let us try.

Yulya leads the party clockwise east and then south around the sparks of the Forge in a safe distance and to the unexplored  bulette tunnel there.
