Otherwise: Satyr-friends, can you chop those chains, or use other miney-tools about? Or Althaea, can you magic-up a what-do-you-call-it chain cutter thing?

After finishing off the giant, the wolves go east and underneath that giant handcart, hoping to pounce on the next giant that passes by
Del has too much to say to stick to the lyrics much; you'll have to imagine what he says in synch with Moby's beats. He seems to have lost some of his usual formality as well...
Brother Squinty, if you don't mind...
Can you squash them effers, on the west side...
I'll blast to the east, with Ethen and Cup...
And Mindy can go, and beat some goons up...
He will Blast several times with repelling trying to keep fomorians at bay in the weeds:
At #10 16 if it hits doing 8 force and pushing ten feet
At #10 again 19 if it hits doing 1 force and pushing ten feet
and at #11 11 if it hits doing 7 force and pushing ten feet
He also calls out to the satyrs Don't let them just squash you, or see you really! Get out of sight behind something! Attack when you can ambush!
Starting to get tired of this Quentin pulls out his deepest magic he has aiming for the biggest group cluster he can (trying to aim for 4, 3, 12 along with that cluster next to them without hurting any allies).
Having an idea Cup tries to see if there is anything burning near 28, a small fire, if not she uses firebolt to try and create one near there.
Gravity Sinkhole (6th level) DC 16 Con ST, pulled towards the center on a fail, no pull and half on success: 34

FB responds to the response Is that ridiculous chain magic or magicked? Has anyone tried something like that?
((She was talking before about chopping their individual chains that link to the giant one, presumably easier but slower to do each at a time. And, although 'bolt cutter' is not in the PHB equipment list, there has been a way to cut chain as long as there has been chain, so she was suggesting Althaea create on of those whatevers. She can cast Dispel Magic next turn but it would be all the rest of her slots ))

Mindartis pulls a potion from his belt and uncorks it, smelling it for a moment before downing the potion in one gulp. He throws the bottle to the ground as he feels himself start to grow. He grins and makes a move to intercept any of the formilions who try to escape the western flank.
With lethal accuracy, Ethen finishes off Fomorian 14!
Raven moves over to the tree, hiding among its knots, twisty roots, and the pits and piles of dirt surrounding it so incredibly successfully that not even she is sure of where the heck she is.
Mindartis...grows. A lot! And moves closer to Fomorian territory.
Underground, the Eladrin says, "I don't believe there is any onr of us that has not tried an axe on the chains that bind them. All that happens is that the axes are damaged, and we are punished for it. I do not know if the chains are magical, or the axes are just extremely poor in quality. Or both."

One of the satyrs says, "When the whistle blew to call us for aid, our chains shattered!"
Another says, "Anyway, not all of us were chained. Some had to run wood up from the deeps where the children and small fey are working, out to the wagons."
(Any action for Althaea and Cup this round, or should we move on?)

...
Firebolt if needed otherwise she's going to use Pyrotechnics and try and make that area heavily obscured: Attack: 18 Damage: 10
((I believe Cup's action was an if-then - since DM reports there is campfire about, she wanted to Pyrotechnics a smoke cloud somewhere near 28 that would block evil eyes from that group. I think she would have to move a little to be within range, but could easily get back either where she was or near the hut))

Althaea takes all this into consideration, before strumming a few notes on her Lyre as she focuses all her attention on skeleton key. She watches as the wavering lines of the song her teachers taught her start to take form, building the key before her eyes. She swipes it out of the air and tries it on one of the locks, hoping it works.
Action: Use Song of Creation to make a skeleton key to see if that will unlock the manacles
A cloud of smoke covers the Fomorians at the west end...
Althaea creates a key and inserts it into the lock of the nearest Eladrin villager, her mother. Soon she is free! The locks are stiff, rusty and badly maintained. (Each round of battle from now on, make 6 DC15 strength rolls. The number of successes is the number of Eladrin you manage to free that round.)
The satyrs heed Del's words, and the ones who can get out of Fomorian reach do so, picking up rocks and clods of earth to throw at the giants before they go. They don't do much damage, but every little bit helps.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
In the northwest, thwarted from casting their evil glares by Cup's smoke cloud, the Fomorians concentrate on breaking out of the thicket. 28 and 6 manage to push their way free of the weeds!
The Northeast Fomorians stumble out of their pile-up again.
10 casts an evil eye at the straggling satyr #4! 30 (Satyr saving throw 10 )
11 and 8 try to finish off the wolves with dirty looks. 33 (Wolf saving throws 7, 6)
18 just tries to push toward the edge of the overgrowth.

Several more Fomorians are thrown back to the center of Quentin's gravity sinkhole, causing another pileup! 15 and 24 are killed in the crush.
An Eladrin responds to Flitterbug's words. "If axes made any impression on this chain, believe me, we would all have been out of here long since!"
