(Rethan got Jack and Nygil out. Both Jack and Nygil are now prone. Rethan is going to attack the worm that's biting Nygil. The worm that attacked Mordred is still there by the way.)
"Uh... Thanks guys..." Nygil sputters, still unable to see and doing his best to guess who was helping him based on voices. He spits out some sand, wrapping his arms around whom he guessed was...Jack?...yes, it has to be. Then he feels something bite his foot, "Ouch! Stupid thing!" He tries to shake it off his foot, but is unable to move much due to being half buried. He knows Jack is trying to help him, yet he realizes that if he goes under he'll pull her under as well... so he lets go, grabbing at the sand instead, "No need for you to come down with me." He says, realizing that Jack still has ahold of him.
Suddenly he finds himself once more safely on top of the sand...yet those teeth are still digging into his foot, "Jack... you have my utmost gratitude. I...still can't see though..."
"Mordred? R...Rethen?" He says, straining against the worm that has ahold of him and trying to stand up. He remembers hearing their voices, but he isn't sure what they are trying to do, as he cannot see...though he thought he heard the sound of a weapon just now... "Whoah you can see right? I don't want to lose my foot!"
Not wanting to throw off Rethen's aim, he keeps still...in spite of his instincts telling him to get out of the way as quickly as possible...
Bringing his hand up to his face, he tries again to get the sand out of his eyes...

(EDIT: changing because I missed the last post...)
Jack doesn't let go of Nygil, even after coughing up what felt like lungfuls of sand. The sand and air whips her skin, forming gashes that only get deeper with every second. But she doesn't move to cover her face. She can't move. How could I ever live with the thought that someone near me was in trouble and I didn't move to help them? A deep growl comes from the very base of her throat, turning into a scream as she shakes and pulls with desperation. She doesn't let him let her go. "We're... not... going... down... Not today---Mph!"
Con Check: 14
Round 2!
Jack lets out a loud grunt as the two are tackled by someone she can't see, the wind getting knocked out of her. Something thumps against her leg, and she's not sure if it's Nygil's foot kicking her or something else, but she suddenly realized they're no longer sinking and she wants to get out of there. "Is there a worm on your leg?!I... I can't see either!!" she yells at the elf in frustration, scrambling up to her feet and away from that thing as fast as she can.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Mordred had pointed at the worm near himself (hunters Mark spell) before readying his blade to strike twice more again. (If he cuts it down he wants to move toward the worm next to Nygil.)
"Thanks Rethan... Nygil.. Jack it's me Mordred er.. Well just.. Stay calm it's going to be all right."
Though his voice was a clash of awkward and stern he couldn't rely on facial expressions to talk with them could he? He had slashed from the right to the worm before kicking his feet back and slashing downward in quick succession. Striking right and spinning into a downward slash.

OOC Oh if Rethan got them out I'll do something else for round 2 ^^
Also standing from prone only takes half movement right?
OOC Okay hopefully that's enough damage to kill the worm so he can run by Nygils side! But if it's not than he'll have to be ready for a tough fight for sure! XD (You can move Mordred's token if it ends up being enough to kill that thing)

Con Check DC 16: 4
Perception: 5
Kashika is once again buffeted by the sandstorm, though, still holding the star keeps her eyes from going. Seeing as people were.. or 'were' being dragged down, she decides on her next action. She wasn't much for talking during a fight.. unless it was needed, outside of her spells. And in this case her focus seemed to open a third eye she never knew she had (metaphorically of course!) and she more than easily perceives the little bastard trying to bite her butt.
She moves away from it first, before casting her next spell.... waiting until after she was out of range to cast.
First she will move away from the wormling, 15 feet to the left of her current position.
Contingency ... as I'm not sure what all is still happening overall:
If atleast two wormlings are still on the field OTHER than the one attacking her: Kashika will cast Levitate (DC 14 CON save) with a twinspell, her priority being worms dragging people under (up to 2 worms)
If only two wormlings remain she will still cast levitate/twinspelled first on the one dragging someone under, then on the one that had tried to kiss her ass.
If only one remains, she will instead cast acid splash on it in a way that wouldn't hit an ally if possible (DEX save DC 14) or take 8Acid damage
I post these contignencies so that whatever happens you know what i'd do in the given situation!
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kashika's keen eyes quickly take in the current situation. Darting away from the wormling that was going to bite her butt, she pinpoint's it's location, as well as the ones targeting Zalten, and Nygil. She also can tell there is yet another worm that is about to try to swallow Midnight! Once again she calls upon her inner power to try to drag the worms next to Zalten and Midnight out of the sand. The one behind Zalten squeals as it's pulled from it's wormhole, however, the one targeting Midnight remains under the sand.
As Kashika jumps away from her attacker, Zalten whips out his crossbow and fires a bolt into the sandy mound. It immediately stops moving. Within seconds of landing his lethal blow, the rouge's soul viciously strikes at the worm floating behind him. It let's out a scream of pain as it's very essence is violently pierced, struggling against Kashika's spell all the while.
Meanwhile, Rethan attempts to blindly help the blind elf and the blind changeling by hacking at the worm that is attached to Nygil's foot. His first swing misses, and thumps into the sand. However the fighter won't give up! Pulling his axe out of the sand, he tries again. This time he hit's flesh and the worm screams in pain and start's flailing it's tail about wildly in attempt to defend itself.
To hit Rethan: 1 (critical fail)
In it's panicked attempt to stab it's attacker, it ends up slapping itself with it's stinger instead!
Mordred, torn between helping his companions and dealing with the current threat to himself, opts for striking at the brave worm that willingly had come to the surface. Best to deal with the immediate threat since Rethan, though still blind, had gone to Nygil's aid. Hefting his sword, Mordred points to the evil beast marking it as his prey. Without giving much notice, the worm attempts to lunge at the paladin. Mordred retaliates first slashing, then stabbing the small beast, brutally destroying it. Now that this worm is nothing but a red stain on the yellow-orange sand, the paladin rushes over to help his companions.
As this happens, Jumble, hearing the commotion, decides the only logical thing to do in his current state of unseeing, is to chastise the dumb worm chewing on the elf's foot. (Redirected attack) Wisdom save 17. Unfortunately, his words fall on deaf ears...
As Rethan hacks at the worm on his leg, Nygil lays as still as he can, praying that his foot will be still be attached to his leg by the end of this.
Tamara, now blinded by the storm, blasts a bolt at the last place she saw a worm. Unfortunately, Zalten had already killed it. Her spell shoots through the empty space where the worm once was then disappears into the swirling storm.
Jack lift's herself out of the sand then once again unsuccessfully tries to swipe the sand from her eyes.
As Midnight attempts to cleans her eyes of sand, she is unaware of the worm emerging from the sand beneath her. Rearing up out of the sand, the wormling attempts to bite and then swallow the cat. (This one is now visible to everyone who is not blind, and are within 20ft of it.)
To hit: 23
Damage: 5
Dex save to avoid being swallowed DC 13
Mordred and Zalten need to make another Acrobatics check.
Everyone needs to make another Con Check DC 16 or take 7 slashing damage. Everyone also needs to make another Dex check DC of 16 or be blinded. (Unless already blind or holding a star)
Yet another worm latches onto Mordred as the paladin tries to make his way over to Nygil! However, this one is far more determined than the one before. It bites down as hard as it can, trying to pierce the paladin's skin as it pulls him downward!

Unable to see, and unaware of what was happening where in the chaos, Jumble could only bitterly mutter as he again tried to get the sand out of his eyes

Midnight yowls as she gets sand in her own eyes and starts pawing at her face trying to get it out.

(Shield is correct. Prone only takes half your movement so you can still use your action for something else.)

Okay hopefully that's enough damage to kill the worm so he can run by Nygils side!
