Az Emberi's bonfire burns the nothic's ass, and it howls a little. Fjolnir leaps over the chasm with the broken bridge below and readies an arrow in case it peeks out from behind the pillar. Hymir flings a firebolt but the nothic sees it coming a mile away and dodges. Dirk struggles through the piles of bones while singing a tune to inspire Absinthe and just manages to get under the North bridge with a dash action. He carefully opens the chest but has no time to grab anything out of it yet.
Dirk:
Inside the chest are 2 healing potions, a pile of silver and a pile of gold, 5 malachite gems, a scroll and a longsword in a silver-chased scabbard. The sword is inscribed with the name “Talon,” and its hilt is worked in the shape of a bird of prey with outspread wings. (You don't have time to count it or appraise or identify anything right now, but you can take something next turn)
Absinthe happily bounds across the North bridge, much to the confusion of the nothic, and succeeds in grappling it in a bearhug being inspired by Dirks wonderful song.
Hymir:
"You can't figure out that little spider? It's so simple! Ha hahahahahaha!"
The nothic growls angrily into your minds. "You had a chance to leave. Now you will be my meal! No, stay away from there! Those are mine!" It attempts to writhe away from Absinthe's grasp knowing that Dirk is heading towards its treasure. 15 Hymir had seen this play out in a vision... but at the time he knew not what this creature was that Absinthe cradled and kissed and whispered sweet nothings to while it struggled. Now it makes sense, and Absinthe is able to keep a strong hold on the nothic. The creature can't get away from the bonfire and takes another 5 fire damage.
Absinthe: 20
Just barely slipping out of the goliath's grasp, it runs to the edge of the cliff and starts to clamber down, making it halfway (10 feet). It looks at Dirk rifling through its things and hisses.

Fjolnir edges along the wall and settles near the flames of the bonfire- he nocks another arrow, sights the one eyed beast, and draws to fire at it, "*******... creeping shit from the dark..!"
"Well it's going to be someone's lucky day." I say with wide eyes. I loot everything, all to go to group loot and start looking for the best way up. By the way, thanks for all the treasure.... *****. I'm calling you ***** now discount, cave dwelling loser.

I do the other part of what I couldn't do in my last post.
"Be still child, this will be over soon." I whisper, then I bite the other side of it's neck, looking for another giant chunk of flesh to relieve it of.

Going back in time, it turns out Absinthe had bitten its neck before. The nothic's hide being thicker than it looked, he was not able to bite off as large a chunk as he'd intended, though some damage was done. Az Emberi carefully traverses the bridge that the struggle is happening on and whacks the nothic with his magical stick for a decent effect. Fjolnir gets tired of waiting and moves around the natural column to fire an arrow at it. He misses... again. Hymir whispers an incantation and a skeletal hand grasps the nothic on its shoulder, turning some flesh to rot. Dirk spends his time looting the chest below, and Absinthe tries for a bite on the other side of the neck, but can't find purchase with his teeth.
You all hear whispers and cackling as the creature claws with both hands at Absinthe while it is held over the edge of the bridge.

As I maintain my tight hold on this odd creature, "Time and time again I warn things to just let us pass, time and time again I have forced to prove why. I feel like Steven Segall in every movie he has ever been in."
Fjolnir misses the Nosgoth and shouts in frustration. He sees Dirk make for the Nesbit, he nocks and looses another arrow attempting to pierce its carapace before it wriggles free.
Az Emberi deftly knocks on its head while it dangles off the edge of the bridge. Fjolnir... sigh... it's just not right. One day, maybe the dice gods will favor you, but that is not this day. Hymir's chilling grasping skeleton hand rots away more shoulder tissue. Dirk climbs out of the pit, and Absinthe brings death closer with a knee to the ribs.
The nothic screeches in Absinthe's face in desperation. Battered and beaten, a chunk out of its neck and a rotting shoulder, it claws at Absinthe 2 more times.
Attack: 5 Damage: 8
Attack: 11 Damage: 6
You all hear a loud, frustrated scream in your heads as it channels Fjolnir's luck.

He draws another arrow from the quiver, "Who the **** is Seagal, another Monk?!" he says, while shaking the arrow violently as though it were defective, and quickly loosing it at the restrained creature.
With the creature starting to look in rough shape, I continue to squeeze the breath out of it, constricting tighter still as it screams in my mind. Absinthe attempts to silence it's face with a headbutt.

The monster, flailing furiously, manages to dodge everything thrown at it except the chilling grip of a skeletal hand, which makes the necrotic rot start to creep into its chest. It is weak, very weak, but still fighting. It claws in further desperation at the goliath, screaming into your heads, "We could've had a deal. I could've worked for you!"
