[Anastasia]

Init for Jetina.

[Nephrite]

[22:02] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+20 Jetina

Good thing she was boosted.

The burning floor begins to cook the dwarf, but Jetina's just fast enough. Healing begins to heal him, fast enough for Cresiel to put hammer on his back and lift the healing dwarf up. "Guh...guh..." he coughs. "Disaster. I'm the only survivor because I could play dead, and they're surely following now. Entire...entire thing was known, somehow. A damned traitor or twice damned magic. They were prepared for our strengths."

[Nephrite]

"We're at a disadvantage if we stay to fight, as much as I want to." Moore says. "Cresiel, can you try and open a Gate? I doubt it will work, but we may as well try."

Jetina casts another Heal for the meantime.

[Anastasia]

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 43 > [d100=43]

"Not after what I did to stop the fires," Cresiel says, looking to the wall, "We're close to the exit."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods.

"Let's see if I can make us a hole, then." He says.

[22:20] <Nephrite> roll 1d100
[22:20] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 62 > [d100=62]

Greater Stone Shape again, he's just trying to make a giant hole in the wall going out and upward to try and make an exit.

[Anastasia]

The wall opens - into a hallway to the south, another wall shortly ahead.

[Nephrite]

[22:32] <Nephrite> roll 1d100
[22:32] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 33 > [d100=33]

Another Greater Stone Shape is cast to try and open an exit!

"We'll find something interesting, or the exit, either way..." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

Another wall opens - air! A new exit is made, your chance apparent.

[Nephrite]

"Let's go. I'm sure they're not going to let us go this easily, though, so be ready for anything." Moore says as he goes through the hole!

[Anastasia]

"Careful," Cresiel agrees - as you fly out, only for the flames to erupt. They form as lava erupts from the ground, a tidal wave of it surging up in a moment, looming above the party.

Kaja snaps off a foul word as Jetina cries, "We need ice magic again, fast!"

[Nephrite]

"Hold on!" Moore shouts.

Moore is going to use his Boots of Temporal Acceleration power, which gives 2 rounds of Time Stop.

I'm not sure how this will affect the dwarf, whom Cresiel is carrying. Can he still be carried during that?

[Anastasia]

Dwarf would be frozen, which would stop Cresiel from moving unless he lets go of him to move without the dwarf.

[Nephrite]

Okay, action stands regardless.

"We don't have that kind of magic." Moore says, as he activates a power of one of his items -- everything coming to a sudden halt. "I bought us a few seconds, let me try something." He says.

One swift down.

Taking the standard action I have, or would assume I have.

[11:47] <Nephrite> roll 1d100 spell failure
[11:47] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 18 > [d100=18]


He gestures, then makes a silent curse.

"I'm going to try and just summon a blizzard to help us with this, but I think our best bet is to fly up, unless anyone else has any ideas?" He asks. "Don't hold back, time is of the essence."

He still has his two time stop rounds, as do everyone else, technically.

[Anastasia]

"Move," Jetina agrees, "We're retreating, not fighting this out."

"I see no better ideas," Xandra seconds, "Haste avails us here, not standing our ground. This was at least a trap for them, if not for us as well."
