"Be my guest", the goliath replies, taking one step back. "But don't be surprised when something springs from them, wraps itself round your face, and injects its eggs into your chest."
Rixton weaves his way through all the webbing and begins carefully to cut through the multiple strands that encase one of the spiders' victims. A few minutes later, he peels back the cocoon to reveal the corpse of a mountain goat.
Rixton methodically slices through the many strands of webbing that have surrounded the third victim, an unconscious human female. Her skin color indicates she's still alive, and her apparel is that of Wormblod's barbarian tribe. There is no weapon with her in the cocoon.
The goliath bends down and scoops the woman into his arms, carries her to one of the columns scattered around the room, and props her up against the rock. "Carrow can you bring her round with your healing?"
"I think we should head back once she is able to be moved who knows if there are loads more of those spiders on the tunnels?" Andor looks back the way they've come anxiously.

Carrow's spell immediately causes the barbarian woman to stir. A slight groan escapes her lips before her eyes open. She is both frightened and confused as her eyes dart around the room.
I sigh. "They were too proud for our help. We can escort you to the entrance, if you think you can find your way to them. I'm afraid they left without you."
Her response is a blank stare and a nod of her head. She follows silently as the group leads her through the spider tunnels, down the hall with the stone giant statue, and through the temple room to the main hallway. She slows her pace considerably as she walks past the spilled blood and the slain white dragon wyrmling. It is obvious that she's attempting to decipher what happened in this place, but she asks no questions. Before parting ways with the group, she imploringly utters one last word. "Weapon?"
Whether someone hands her a weapon or not, her reaction is the same. She turns and exits the Eye of the All-Father.
(If there is any decision-making/role-playing opportunity that anyone wishes to complete before the barbarian leaves, then let me know and we'll fill in the blanks)
"Whatever you need to survive. Your brothers threw down their weapons when they departed. I can give you a spear and a shortbow with some arrows. Do you need a bedroll, blanket, tent, or other gear?"

"Be my guest", the goliath replies, taking one step back. "But don't be surprised when something springs from them, wraps itself round your face, and injects its eggs into your chest."
Rixton:
"Be sure to avenge my death, if that's the case," I say with a smirk.
I sneak through the webs to the cocoons, drawing my dagger to cut one open.
Stealth: 21
Rixton weaves his way through all the webbing and begins carefully to cut through the multiple strands that encase one of the spiders' victims. A few minutes later, he peels back the cocoon to reveal the corpse of a mountain goat.
Vigan
"Well that's lunch taken care of", the goliath says dryly.
Rixton:
"Probably more goats. Let's see what else anyways," I say and open another cocoon with my dagger.
Carrow
Watching from a distance he leans into Vigan "Shame, i was hoping to see the face hugger"before turning and watching the cave entrance.
The second cocoon holds a dead dwarf clothed in tattered furs and clutching a miner's pick close to his chest.
Rixton:
"Poor fella. Well, what is behind cocoon number three?"
I slice open the final cocoon.
Rixton methodically slices through the many strands of webbing that have surrounded the third victim, an unconscious human female. Her skin color indicates she's still alive, and her apparel is that of Wormblod's barbarian tribe. There is no weapon with her in the cocoon.
Rixton:
"Vigan? Little help here?" I say, pointing to the unconscious woman. "She is still alive."
Vigan
The goliath bends down and scoops the woman into his arms, carries her to one of the columns scattered around the room, and props her up against the rock. "Carrow can you bring her round with your healing?"
Ladrian
"Might as well. Someone could still be alive."
Carrow
Hearing the commotion the ranger comes around to check the barbarian, lay an open palm against her skin he mutters a few words softly.
Cure Wounds: 10

Carrow's spell immediately causes the barbarian woman to stir. A slight groan escapes her lips before her eyes open. She is both frightened and confused as her eyes dart around the room.
Rixton:
"Do you speak common?" I say, holding open my empty hands.
She nods. "I do."
She then looks at Rixton and his companions, her concern growing. "My tribe?"
Rixton:
I sigh. "They were too proud for our help. We can escort you to the entrance, if you think you can find your way to them. I'm afraid they left without you."
