Myles looks up to see when he can let go of the concentration on levitating Siszhu, ready to elevate the rest of the team too as soon as the Yuan-Ti seems safe up above.
Nephvir moves to where there is the hole in the ceiling, hearing what is going on above. He gauges how high it is and if there is any way he can jump up and grab something to pull himself up.

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
Siszhu flies at the Stitchling, dropping the flight and attempting to grapple the creature once he is in melee range.
Grapple: 21
2nd attempt, it needed: 18
If Siszhu is able to grapple the thing with either attempt he will then attempt to drag them back to the hole so as to drag them back down to the others, willing to fall down the hole to the next floor as long as he can take the cloth-woman with him.
As the rest of the crew wait down below, searching the space and just waiting, Siszhu finally lands when he can and charges the Stitchling. She had held her action and this constituted a release of it and she goes to bite the yuan-ti, but she misses.
Siszhu graps hold of the monster, she is unable to stop him and he drags her through the hole in the floor, landing with a crash, they both get 1 whole bludgeoning damage.
Seething in anger, she spins in Siszhu's grasp and attacks him.
First, two attacks with her razor-sharp, needle like talons, they both hit for a total of 16 slashing damage. Then she bites him for 4 piercing damage and 11 poison damage.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Now pissed off (well, Necyra is always cranky, so let’s say she’s crankier than usual?), Necyra tries to wriggle her way out of the grappled state she’s currently in, all tied up in whatever this weird beast is making a web out of (she frankly doesn’t want to know…considering she’s a germaphobe and is worried about this crap dirtying up her expensive outfit).
First, she snaps her fingers and wiggles her nose (picture Samantha from Bewitched), casting Guidance on herself, and then she gets to wriggling:
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As the Stichling comes crashing back down together with Siszhu, Myles steps back into the corridor and holds up his cane, unleashing two beams of eldritch crackling force towards the nightmarish creature.
The creature hears To'Kurr blow his pipe and is able to dodge out of the way as the heat wooshes past her and Siszhu. To'Kurr's pipe does enable Necyra to get free with his assistance in her struggles however.
Even though still grappled by the yuan-ti, the Stitchling is able to twist and contort her body to keep herself from being damaged by the blasts from the investigator.
With the creature already in his grasp, and the others apparently thinking it's time to kill it, Siszhu goes nuts. At the start of the turn, as the Stitchling is still grappled and Siszhu has the unarmed fighting technique, the creature takes 1d4 damage - 2. Nothin extreme but it's something!
With a growl, Siszhu then starts punching the creature in the face. Again and again. Sometimes body shots are called for but... this thing barely has a body. It is all sheets and stitches. But it had a head and that is a nice solid target... A head that Siszhu attacks Recklessly! (Adv and attacks against him are at adv til his next turn. Almost forgot this so first two attacks I did straight roll & damage then went back and did second d20 roll for each...)
First Unarmed Strike: 13 reckless though so 20 to hit for 6 damage
Second Unarmed Strike: 24 or 19 to hit for 8 damage
Action Surge to take another turn...
Third Unarmed Strike: 27 or 24 to hit for 8 damage
Fourth Unarmed Strike: 27 to hit for 9 damage (rolled this one right...)
And finally Bonus Action Unarmed Strike: 20 to hit for 8 damage...
Between Nephvir's attack and Siszhu's bonkers mugging... the Stitchling lets out her last ragged breath and goes completely limp. The only sound now is Siszhu's heavy breathing from attacking so recklessly.
Siszhu isn't done yet. Perhaps he unfists his hands but they are still flying here there and everywhere tearing the stitchling apart looking to get through all the cloth to the real creature beneath... If there is one. Think Tasmanian Devil from Looney Tunes... Only less furry.
Taking a moment to catch his breath after the frantic search / destruction of the stitched together cloth lady thing, Siszhu turns inquiringly to To'Kurr and accepts the offered... Thing. He looks at it curiously and turns it over in his hands a couple of times before sniffing it and then biting the edge of it, trying to figure out what it is...
"Thanks," Siszhu says with his best approximation of a smile. "I like..." Truthfully he still wasn't entirely sure what it was but he tucked it safely into his belt and clapped To'Kurr on the back in a sign of appreciation.
"Good job everyone."The investigator says, stepping back into the room. "I wonder if all Fun House employees are this creepy. We should really give Happy Jack some advice with his recruiting process." He adds with a tired smile. "Okay, Siszhu, are you alright with continuing, we still have missing children to find."
Seszhu looks to Myles and shrugged. The Yuan-Ti had just calmed and found his zen but the fact they would be moving on gave him a spurt of energy! Tearing into the various and sundry once more he throws willy-nills a lot of clothes and fabrics and a bag of baby teeth, a pound of pepper and an obsidian arrowhead... All go flying haphazardly, the fabrics generally being caught in the air and drifting but the heavier object clattering against the walls before raining down to the floor.
"More pepper," Siszhu states as he stands up and looks around. "Huh. Anyway, let's go find the kids... Umm, should we bring the teeth so we can put them back in 'em?"
Whilst Siszhu continues with his haphazard tornadic search through the pile of clothing, Necyra slowly flutters down to the floor, through the hole in the ceiling above, all while dusting off her cloak. "Pisssh-pisssh, this place is a dust bunnies warren! Filthy!" she manages to cough out, between sneezes.
Upon landing, she glances over and sees the tattered remains of the stitchling, amidst the clods of dust piled up everywhere throughout the room, and mumbles to herself "In death, a man decays to return to dust..."
"Well then!" she announces out loud, while clapping her hands together to brush off the remaining detritus of dust, "Shall we continue this way (she points to the hallway heading to the east)? We should find those missing kiddos before they themselves turn into dust!"
Without waiting for a response, she marches east down the hallway, wasting no time to get away from that filthy room.

To'Kurr looks around for anyway up to the next floor. Assuming there's no way up, he searches the room the creature just left.

Angry she might be, but try as she might... Necyra is still stuck within the tied up mess of webbing...
((Immune to Poison as a Yuan-Ti but 21 other damages taken...))
To'Kurr looks through what he's found in the room, holding up some sort of fang.
"Whoa, big snake around her dudes," To'Kurr says.
Then he holds up a length of 10' of twine, and a dead snake.
In the middle of looking at the snake, Siszhu comes crashing back down with the paperdoll creature.
In surprise he blows his pipe at the creature again, a quick dart of flame emerges and scorches the creatures papery arms.
(Fire Bolt 4+13=17 to hit for 9+5+5 from alchemical savant = 19 fire damage)
Seeing Necyra in trouble, To'Kurr inhales again and blows a different coloured smoke her way, helping her in her struggles.
(Reaction - Flash of Genius - +5 to ability check or saving throw - that 12 will be a 17 - does she get out with that?)
As the Stichling comes crashing back down together with Siszhu, Myles steps back into the corridor and holds up his cane, unleashing two beams of eldritch crackling force towards the nightmarish creature.
Eldritch Blast: 30 Force: 6
Eldritch Blast: 21 Force: 6
The creature hears To'Kurr blow his pipe and is able to dodge out of the way as the heat wooshes past her and Siszhu. To'Kurr's pipe does enable Necyra to get free with his assistance in her struggles however.

Nephvir steps up to the Stitchling with his short swords still drawn, one slicing nicely in, the other goes wide. “Just give up you creepy … “
Short sword swing 1 : 20 to hit, for 7 points of piercing damage.
Short sword swing 2 : 11 to hit, for 4 points of piercing damage.
Sneak attack damage : 22 points.

To'Kurr eventually walks over and rests a hand on Siszhu's shoulder.
"All done, man," To"Kurr says quietly, hoping to bring some control back to the barbarian.
He then shows Siszhu the large fang he found.
"I know you like pounding with your fits but take a look at this, man," To'Kurr says.
Taking a moment to catch his breath after the frantic search / destruction of the stitched together cloth lady thing, Siszhu turns inquiringly to To'Kurr and accepts the offered... Thing. He looks at it curiously and turns it over in his hands a couple of times before sniffing it and then biting the edge of it, trying to figure out what it is...
