Angie, you struggle to climb grabbing at roots and rocks that keep breaking loose and falling down below you. You almost reach the top when you grab a rock for leverage and slip. You grab a root next to it and catch yourself, but are left hanging by it with both hands. Afraid to let go you call up to Thokein for help. He hears you and rolls over onto his stomach. From this position he is able to reach down and pull you up with his Goliath strength.
...Adept at this sort of thing from dealing with it in forests past, Gobber virtually flies up the tunnel shaft vaulting over the top lip and surprising the still recovering Angie.
Angie, Thokein, and Gobbler as you recover and look around you see that you are at the beginning of another wide trail. However, unlike the other trails you have traveled this one has statues marking an ancient and wild looking path. The statues are heavily damaged and partly covered with moss and branches, yet you can still see that they portray powerful men and women. There is one with a spear, one with a shield, and another with a snake in its arms. The head of one statue has been ripped off and lies on the ground, overgrown. It is likely that they portray the gods of old, their names long forgotten by time.
Healer realizes that this climb May be too much for him.
He glows a soft green as the sound of a twig snapping reverberates through the cave. He melts and shifts. Becoming a Giant Wolf Spider. This beast is much smaller than his previous form. Small enough to fit through.
He scurries up the wall with ease. Meeting his companions at the top.
Gobber as look around you notice that some of the trees here have shredded roots, there are significant furrows on the forest ground, and small water-filled animal hoof prints on the trail. At a glance you understand that strong and massive animals have searched for food here. They appear to have plowed into the ground in search of roots and grubs.
Healer gears up to try the climb again, but slides back down again after only getting a short distance up the shaft.
Gobbee relays what he found during the search. "Guess what I found lads." Gobber leads them to the tracks and furrows. "What do you lads think of this? They're quite large. We should be careful while we're getting closer. Wait.....where's the spider lad?"
Thokien as you respond to Gobber regarding Healer’s whereabouts a tiny black spider crawls up and out of the shaft. It scurries across the trail unnoticed until you see it crawl up Gobber’s pant leg, then his shirt, and onto his shoulder.
"Hmmm...We should wait for him to get up. While we wait...*brrrrr*."Gobber shakes his head a bit only to scratch it afterwards. "Did the poison....ooo....give me a rash?" He rubs his neck vigorously.
"Hmm? I found a little fellar on me self." He gently cups Healer with his hands and puts him on the ground. "Use to play with buggers like you when I was younger."

Healer cant quite find purchase on the slippery incline and slides back down almost immediately.
Gobber says, “Let me show you how this is done big guy,” as he attempts the climb.

Angie looks around herself, intending to inform healer if it is safe to do so.

Gobber is going to look around the area. (Maybe some sort of message or anything out of the ordinary)
Healer, undeterred, makes another attempt.

Thokein looks over the side. "I think he's still down there."
Healer tries the climb in his new more compact spider form.

Thokien as you respond to Gobber regarding Healer’s whereabouts a tiny black spider crawls up and out of the shaft. It scurries across the trail unnoticed until you see it crawl up Gobber’s pant leg, then his shirt, and onto his shoulder.
Thokein slyly watches to see Gobber reaction.
Healer gently brushes Gobber's exposed neck.
