The ochre jelly looks injured as it flails around wildly with its pseudopod, but it's still standing. It oozes toward Khessa who reacts just a bit slower than the others and attacks her with its pseudopod.
Attack: 17 Damage: 10 bludgeoning damage and 1 acid damage
When Khessa sees another of the gelatinous monsters emerge from the rubble, she is taken completely by surprise.
'But how...? We found three beds... two Jellies, a skeleton... what's this one doing here?'
Seeing the threat approaching her... and that her companions, reacting before her, have already moved away, the blonde arcane warrior tries to back away too. A hideous pseudopod suddenly reaches out to her, but the tall warrior-mage utters a quick formula as she makes an elegant gesture with her hand... and an invisible force deflects the treacherous blow. So the adventurer then, without letting her guard down, reaches Rel 30 'north and prepares to counterattack from a distance.
Rel maintains concentration on her Hex, smiling in recognition of Khessa's defensive shield magic.
Her eyes flicker black once more, lingering in darkness lingering for a moment longer than before. Another black Eldritch Blast shooting forth at the ooze.
Attack: 26 Damage: 10 force damage plus 3 necrotic damage.

Giving room to her allies, Rel then turns around and retreats another 20' around the corner to the west, making sure nothing is sneaking up behind them all.
Echo's breath hitches as the ooze reach towards Khessa, then sighs in relief as she sees a surge of magic deflecting the blow. Feeling her limbs begin to weigh from the amount of magic she's used in this one day, she shakes her head to retain focus and summons a ghostly hand to claw at the ooze.

The jelly was looking decidedly worse for wear after the onslaught of magic, but Echo's spell was the final straw. The ooze froze in it's tracks and turned a sickly green shade as the necrotic energy dissolved it's form and it melted into another puddle on the floor.
"Thank you very much, sister!" Khessa winks at Echo, as soon as the pale friend gives the final blow to the jelly-like horror "I just wasn't expecting this last Jelly... I was so surprised, that it almost managed to drag me into its slimy embrace! Luckily, I was able to activate the magic practically by instinct. I'll never be able to thank you enough for having helped me to learn magic properly!"
"Anyway" now the blonde arcane warrior talks to everyone "now the surprises should be completely over... The only way to continue the exploration seems to be to dig. Should we report to Dazlyn and Norbus? Maybe they are more experienced than us about this kind of jobs.... they could tell us if digging makes sense or not (and if it makes sense, they could help us do it). What do you think?"
“I happy you are not hurt. That was too close.” Jasper says to Khessa...
"Thanks dear!" Khessa's blue eyes express deep gratitude, as the arcane warrior puts an arm around the elf's shoulders, gently pulling him to her, so that the hips touch "Yes, that was close, but it would have been even worse if you hadn't given me the gift of seeing in the dark. At least, being able to see the threat coming, at the last moment I was able to react... thank you Jasper" she spells his name as if it tasted good on her lips. "It's nice to know I can count on you".
She is still looking at him... as if what he might says could be very important to her.
Jasper’s eyes widened, taking a deep breathe and holding it for a few seconds. All he can see and hear is the sound of his name leaving Khessa’s lips. He exhales…dropping his spear to the side and closes his eyes. Uttering a few elvish words softly, a glow comes from Jasper’s eyes. As he opens his eyes, a warm feeling flows from Jasper to Khessa.
Jasper casts Vigilant Blessing on Khessa. (Khessa has advantage on the next initiative roll.)
”There! That will help you. I don’t want you to be hurt.(clears his throat…) nor the others.” He says as he looks around to the other. He picks up his spear and raises his eyes up to Khessa and smiles.

"I must say you are very good at taking care of me, Jasper, thank you!" smiles back Khessa, with her blue eyes don't seem ready to leave the elf's "I'll try to learn how to take care of you too, I promise. We haven't known each other very long, but... I feel you've become an important person to me , Jasper".
'Yes, this word tastes good indeed. Jasper'
Then the tall warrior-mage seems to remember that after all she is inside a mysterious dungeon, where she has just been in danger of being dissolved by a giant amoeba and tries to focus again on what needs to be done: "So, we were talking about alerting our two..." but here she realizes that, while she allowed herself to be distracted for a moment, the half-drow must have moved away; she is no longer in sight... "Hey, where is Rel Serafin?"
Echo finds a spot against the wall and slides to a sitting position, her hat scrunching up a little behind her head. Allowing the mage hand to drag the light closer to the other two still here, she relaxes within the dim light and smiles at the bonding moment, at how Jasper seems to be opening up. She pipes up when Khessa asks, "I think she went back out to get Dorzlyn and Norbus."
Standing on tippy toes to get a good look, Echo raises her hand above her head and points to the jelly. “Got it!”
Ray of sickness, Attack: 17 (bless: + 3) Damage: 10
And she runs to back of the tunnel, stopping at where it curves.

“I happy you are not hurt. That was too close.” Jasper says to Khessa.
”That was very impressive!”
”Maybe if the two dwarves help us dig, we could take turns resting.”

Rel, sensing the tender moment between Khessa, Jasper and perhaps Echo, respectfully slips away to tell Dazlyn and Norbus of the status.

Jasper looking north through the passage, he feels his eyes strain a little.
“Khessa, don’t be startled. I feel the sight fading.”
”Echo! Please keep the rope near.”
