    Othegre hits a fruit with her flail to see if it triggers something awful, taking one if it doesnt, before following Ekbard around the trigger.
    "Watch the stairs, there's a crossbow!" She calls back in case the others are following.

    Ooc : unless the fruit is a trap, and I'm being eaten by a plant now....

    Othegre gets a nice juicy fruit.

    Placing a fruit in her pack (too late, it's Canon now, I got away!) Othegre remembers her many torches and flint - she starts lighting one

    OOC: I wasn't going to leave a known trap live when I knew you guys were following!

    Ekbard climbs the stairs vowing to scream if the worst should happen.
    Ekbard enters a room with a large priceless pearl (with the same stony walls as all other rooms). A corridor leads West out of the room.

    Bandylegs staggers into the room with the fruit and spies Othegre trying to light a torch.

    'Give one to Betty, please. Let's light the path.'

    "catch, sis!"
    Only 22 left...

    Once the torch is lit, Othegre will use hers to light Betty's and then swing hers around trying to ascertain if they're still standing in slime

    Betty takes the tourch.

    "Such filth, Othonos was a lunatic and our religion was a lie. Pathetic. I will leave with ye if we survive."

    The pearl sits on the floor in the center of the room. Ekbard scans from top to bottom. No traps that he can see.

    Bandylegs pauses for a moment. He touches the fruit tentatively and grabs one before throwing it into the slime to test what it will do.

    I take a rope and grappling hook from my backpack and start heaving the hook back up out of the pit.
    A tendril solidifies out of the slime, erupts upward and pulls the hook free. Saeros falls back into the pit with a splash.

    The slime pulls back from the fruit, it hits dry ground.

    Othegre sniffs the air for any telltale fumes, and assuming she doesn't smell any tries lowering the torch towards the slime to see what will happen

    The slime burns.

    Nothing.

    Then a low rumbling sound, suddenly louder.

    Now like a herd of cattle in weight. The party feels the entire complex shake. Something has begun to move within this warren of slime tunnels.

    OOC: NICE!

    Bandylegs grabs handfuls of the fruit and rubs it on himself. He then does the same to Betty and motions Othegre to do the same.

    He grabs another vine of fruit for Ekbard, puts it in his backpack and makes for the stairs

    "My love here?, but the mood is not..." she blushes.

    A massive crash is heard in the floor below, the thing seems to be close.

    Othegre follows Bandylegs' lead and starts rubbing the fruit on her legs and feet, while passing another over her chest, arms and head to remove any trace of the gick.

    Bandylegs snorts.

    'Tis not what ye be thinking, dearest. The fruit can protect us. I think.'

    Bandylegs jumps at the crash and draws his sword.

    'Ekbard!! Get up here!!! Ye need the fruit to get rid of the slime!'

    Ooops.
    I look around and notice the body in the slime. I search it while trying to figure out where the others have gone.
    "HaLLOOOOO"

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Othegre jams a fruit on the end of her flail and starts back towards the pit, driving the slime back as she goes...

    Othonos only has on him a heavy iron key and a bottle of Scotch Whiskey.

    Bandylegs stands watching the crazed cleric running back towards where they came. He shrugs.

    'Betty, let us join Ekbard and leave this madness.'

    A huge wall of slime enters the room, Ekbard can see bones and meat undulating within it. A face forms in the slime and the eyes glare at Ekbard with a stare that would melt the souls of lesser men.

    Ekbard the Nerosian stares down this thing, this half formed god and does not break.

    Everybody hears four more similar sounds. Heavy torrents of slime moving to some location.

    The torrent facing Ekbard turns and heads back down the corridor.

    OOC: It cast a spell that Ekbard saved against.
