Nelburn turns to Tobias and shrugs "If I'm honest lad I was trying to keep up with the flighty lass there when you all took off. Garrett was behind me but he ain't emerged."
Turning to Flint a wide smile crosses the dwarfs face as he has an idea "Lad, you've a good eye right? And you enjoyed a bit of that there levitation magic? Fancy floating above the trees to see if ye can find em?"
Garret can not see who is holding the sword aloft.

With all the chatter the group around the fire is alerted to the party's presence as the orbs Gen was persuing disappear striking off into the jungle.
"You're surrounded you ludites! Do you not know the jungle is filled with peril and it's the least of your problems," a husk female drow emerges from the undergrown brandishing a rapier flanked by two panthers that look surprisingly long since lost to the world of the living!

Again the bird winks out and reappears near him and lands on his shoulder. He then sheathes his sword and is enveloped in darkness.
I will use your eyes to see in the dark and we will head in the direction of the lighted sword that we saw.
His eyes then glaze over and have a far away look to them as he sees through Athene's eyes (dark vision 120 ft). Garrett then begins to move slowly and quietly (Boots of Elvenkind) in the direction the light was last seen.
Garrett moves forward quietly and is reassured when he finds Nam. Garrett then stops sort of odd looking ground then knocks loose palm fronds into the pit revealing spikes.

As the group around the campfire notices them, Flint will step out of the brush towards them, his left hand empty and in the air and his right hand holding the heavy crossbow pointed towards the sky. "Hello friends! Are all of you enjoying the maze as much as myself and my companions" the man with say with a smile. "Perhaps we can help eachother out a bit? Maybe we can all make it home alive..." Flint will say giving the group a small wave with his empty gloved left hand.
Nam feels relieved to see Garrett. "Where are the others? Watch your step, spike pits all over the place" Nam picks up a long stick and uses it to check the ground in front of him.

"I do not know where the other's have gone. I was lucky to find you. And yes, certainly watch your step." Garrett answers, relieved as well to have found someone else.
"So where to, or which way? I can try to have Athene try and locate them again, but this jungle is so dark and thick even she is having trouble."
Athene, let us try again. Circle around us and lets take a look.
Once again the bird takes flight in search of missing friends.
Nelburn turns to see the drow emerge with the panthers at her side. As Flint attempts diplomacy with the group at the fire he simply lets out a nice loud belly laugh. “Bwahahaha! Now we”ve got bleedin’ drow! By Dumathoins baldin’ skull if this place ain’t got a sense of humour then I’ll be a damned halfling. Lady if you’re so sure we’re surrounded then I’d be bettin’ that you ain’t got no clue that there still be half our number behind ye in that damned jungle. Unless you got a likin’ for fire and blades in the back then I’d be leavin us be.”
As he finishes he thinks to himself Them bleedin’ idiots better find their way out here fast wherever the dim wits have got themselves
So as stuck as Karnic is, he is going to slowly and carefully reach down to his belt, grab the Decanter of Endless Water, uncork it, point it at the ground below and say, "Geyser." He is hoping to either push himself off of the spikes with the force of the water or use the force of the water to unbury the spikes and free himself.

"Oh, I know where they are," the drow replies with a devilish grin. "My party led you here," she adds next as she flicks her wrist and the glowing orbs return just on the peripheral of the group moving in. The panthers growl and paw the ground as the Drow continues to grin. "They'll be here soon enough," the woman adds.
"No," Gen exclaims clutching her staff. "That map is the key to this maze," she adds looking back at her party. "She's....not natural. Nothing here is...natural. She's a necromancer," she then calls out pointing at the drow.
Flint sees ALL the 'people' are looking worse for wear. They actually, most of them, look like they've suffered some sort of terrible wound! His suggestion falls literally on deaf ears.

Karnic reaches for the decanter taking 4 of piercing damage. How much would you say, with equipment, does Karnic weigh?

"You up for being sneaky? My only concern, besides the panthers, is that I don't see Karnic there. So he's either lost like us or hiding. As far as those panthers are concerned I'm thinking they are probably undead like the one we met when we first came into this area. "
“Ok, we need a plan and a safe route to get to them” Nam says as he pulls a fuzzy ball from his Bag of Tricks.

Having been focused on the path behind them for signs of the other party members, Tobias moves to put himself between the drow and Gen as accusations are thrown about. The paladin looks to the drow with his shield hand open, and his axe low but ready to act if needed. "Now let's just hold on a minute. Why don't you bring your pets to heel and tell us why you brought us here?"

"Competition is competition," the Drow replies. "I might need one or two of you after you've been properly brought to heel," she adds motioning with her hand as two of her party members by the fire stand up and begin shambling over towards the party. "Shall we dance down," she adds before she moves back the panthers and two zombies advancing.
