>>23074((You could maybe burn a few, but the majority of the spiders are in the process of letting themselves down with their own strings, so you cannot reach those.))
The wizard folds his hands and disappear in a rainbow-colored cascade... the dwarf stands in front of the Emerald and swings his axe at the spiders which come down towards him.
>>23075The axe fails to hit him, as he had just disappeared.

>>23076Witness the wiard dissapear!
"COWARD!"
But right now the concerning matter was the spiders. There was so many of them. Was it possible to clear the room of them?
he then remembered the monument and it's warnings of Angrosh' wrath...
He turned his attention to the traitor dwarf.
"Where did the emerald came from? What was it's original place?"

>>23077>>23078Boronian and Thorgrim point at the massive spiders, each easily as tall as them, many biggers... there mus be a at least a hundred!
"We have to get out of here, leave the Emerald, it is lost to us!"
The dwarf stands in front of the "Emerald" (a 3 feet big sphere of metal, silver, gold, and greenish glass) and tries to fend of the first spider that tries get to him.
"Umrazim!" he shouts at Vinifera, only to be knocked to the ground by a spider three times his size.
No.23081
>>23079He calls to Boronian and Thorgrim.
"If we abandon the emerald then the wizard will just come back and claim it! Or someone worse will!"
He noticed things were getting particularly spidery for his liking.
He looks over to the emerald. It was a meter in diameter and spherical meaning it was large and heavy. Nazom and Thorgrimm could likely work together to lift it and take it ouf of the chamber while he and Boronian cover them the best they can.
He looks over to see how close the spiders were and how far it would take to take the emerald.
No.23082
>>23080The dwarf tries to grab a rope but with a shriek he is lifted up by two more spiders hurrying down... as he disappears from sight you are yourself attacked by two of the spiders how have lowered above you!

Not so lucky for Vinifera! You're down to 10 health.
Boronian runs for the entrance, Thorgrim hesitates for a moment but then knocks a spider aside with a mighty swing of his axe and follows him, shout at you again to flee.

>>23086You hit the spider! But you cannot lift the Emerald! Certainly it was not meant to be just carried by one dwarf...
Three more spiders are now close to you, you are five against one. They hiss angrily at you. The entire cave seems to be alive with the critters, drawn to the Emerald.

>>23091>>23092You try to give the Emerald a good kick, it wobbles a good meter over the rocky surface, unfazed by it for it is crafted of all magic and could not be damaged. Then the spiders are over it and you... if you would not have hurried under the shrooms which bend heavy under the spiders which are already on top of them... the hurry after you, throwing their webs, spitting silk to capture you... but just in time you make it out!

The door is aching and creaking under the weight and strength of the spiders. You hear the faint shouts of Thorgrim and Boronian who have run ahead...

>>23094The door closed behind them, the group took a breather.
"There were just too many spiders, we couldn't secure it. Besides... maybe Angrosh wrath wasn't because someone stle the emerald, but because it was made and the spiders are it's ward? Either way, no point going through the trouble for something that isn't ours."

Items not yet distributed are:
