Titaani comes back to consciousness, resuscitated by Ben's divine magics.
Titaani initiative:13
They retreat, together with Matilda, into the fetid water at the bottom of the well as the ooze overflows the top of the well. The water is nearly waist-deep to Titaani, and has risen somewhat as more acidic water overflows from the well with the movement of the ooze.
Titaani wakes with a gasp, and scrambles backwards as far back as she can go with her movement.
"Ok, ok, we can still follow the plan," she mutters, fumbling with her crystal. "Yes, the plan, what was it again? What was I supposed to cast...Oh, right!"
With that she casts cause fear on the ooze, her eyes going completely purple. Despite her bedraggled, wet, miserable appearance, for a moment, the little gnome is a frightful sight. Channeling a power not her own, Titaani speaks no words this time as she pushes out a beam of energy from her hand towards the monster.

Titaani calls upon her arcane tethers to awaken the sense of mortality within this congealed mass of goo.... but she feels her forces pass right through it. (It is immune to the Frightened condition, she learns...) She then stumbles backward through the rising waters, to the lip of the pool.
The mass doesn't try to strike at the retreating gnome; rather it surges forward toward Ben. Ben: Make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be engulfed by the jelly.
The massive blob is huge, soft, and slow-moving; hence, easy-to-hit. So Matilda and Horatio easily hit and damage the thing. But the huge mass of goo continues to surge forward.
Meanwhile, the uncorked well continues to overflow into the pool. The waters are steadily rising.
-- Top 'o the Round --
Ben takes a swipe at the quivering jelly. He, too, removes another hunk of it.
"That didn't work, it didn't work, oh no, oh no," Titaani is back to a stammering mess as her self preservation instincts kick in. "Ok, alright, um...Lady Titania! Protect me please."
As she says these words, the water around her dances up playfully and crystallises into snowflakes. These snowflakes form around her torso, solidifying into a hard shell of armour. (she casts armor of agathys on herself)

Titaani successfully encases herself in a spectral frost that covers her body and gear.
The mass turns abruptly and lunges at Matilda and Horatio, instead.
Matilda and Horatio: You both need to make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be engulfed. (On a successful save, you're pushed 5 feet back or to the side.)
Horatio and Matilda successfully dodge the aggressive lunge, but are forced backward in the pool, Matilda to near the huge lilypad. Ben takes another successful slash at the thing.
Matilda climbs upon the strange, broad lily pad. It easily supports her weight, but it takes a moment to catch her balance on it; the sloppy slash of her knife catches only pool water.
Horatio, however, continues to pull it apart. (Both strikes hit!) The assault upon it is finally beginning to take its toll - it looks like it's in rough shape, even as there's still a lot of goo to go.
Feeling a little more confident, Titaani stands up and summons a ball of crackling purple energy into her hands, then sends it arching towards the slime.
Eldritch blast: 19 Damage: 8
