The last 2 Purplewraths that survived the Fireball fall victim to Tempe's magical bolts.

The small clearing is littered with the lifeless bodies of the strange purple flowers.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Zenodor walks around the dead bodies and the clearing to look for anything unusual. Perhaps the Purplewraths have been seeded or sent here or something. He also casts Detect Magic just to be on the safe side
Petcan nods in agreement and rolls up his sleeves, "I think I can help with that," he says and begins to use a combination of [Tooltip Not Found] and fire bolt to do a sweep of any remaining purple wraith remnants.
Being a Life domain cleric and not a nature Druid, Randall does not ponder too long the implications of exterminating a unique species of plant, even given its aggressive behavior. Still he says, “If we find seeds we should keep them in storage—perhaps if someone wishes to raise seedlings from the husk they can be taught to get along with other species and maybe even provide a useful function in our new society.”

Your high Nature roll brings two things to mind. One, it may be possible to raise a domesticated breed of Purplewrath. You won't know for sure until someone tries. Some things respond to nurture while others can't escape their nature. And two, the adult Purplewraths have to be relocated or exterminated as they fall under the old adage 'you can't teach an old dog new tricks.'

"Subduing and relocating the adult plants may be a little difficult, to say the least. Those are plants afterall. How would you knock out and handcuff a plant? I think we best proceed to destroy all the adult plants, and then hand the seedlings to the colonists with instructions on how to try to domesticate them - one or two at a time, just in case it doesn't take."
Bow doesn't care about what's going to happen to the plants and agrees with whatever is decided in the end.

Zenodor is happy to go along with any group decision on the plant. Incinerate or domesticate, it makes little difference as long as the natives and colonists are safe.
There are 2 nests left. One is about halfway between the natives and the hole but off to the west. The other is more than three quarters of a day to the northeast.
(Did Irraxan fly back to the colonists? If so he is about a third of the way there already.)

Although medium in size the Purplewrath corpses are surprisingly light and can be quickly gathered and burned. A huge column of smoke rises skyward and can be seen for many miles around.

"Easy peasy. We should just go mop up the others, right? No reason to wait." Petcan says triumphantly.

"Given that these appear to be plants, perhaps we best burn the corpses and any seedlings that may be around. We would not want them to re-grow later"
Petcan nods in agreement and rolls up his sleeves, "I think I can help with that," he says and begins to use a combination of [Tooltip Not Found] and fire bolt to do a sweep of any remaining purple wraith remnants.

Tempe listens and says "Stop! I suggest we find another place they can live without hurting people. It seems to be our main theme."

Zenodor nods thoughtfully.

"That sounds absurd to me, but I am hardly an authority on plant husbandry." Petcan laughs a bit and backs off of burning everything.

Tempe shrugs "We have a resource of knowledge back at the village. She controlled them."

( He did, yes. Hence why he was not here for the combat)
(But at this speed, we'll have killed all three lots before he will reach the soldiers to ask them to deal with one or two.
Onwards. Don't mind for which one)
