Most of the party's attack make it through the mass but Kastor's attack couldn't, the thick mass of dead plants taking the blow. It raises its limbs towards the party.
The party keeps hacking away, managing to cut away a portion to see Connor's body. But with a final twist, Connor's body rips apart. The mass raises its limbs once more, eager for another body to feast upon.
(I am guessing that Axon wants Shepard to harass the monster.)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(OOC: Yes as a Reaction Shepherd does Deflect attack, I am thinking it only imposes disadvantage on 1 attack though)
Axon watches as Connor's body is ripped apart with cold abandon, he couldn't do more than he was doing already. Couple that thought with the fact that he had watched countless people die in the Last War and it made for machine like intention as he continued to hack away at the mound!
The party presses hard on the monster, a number of stabs, slashes, and solid whacks beat at it. But with a final stab from Sylvester, the creature lets out an wail like that of a wounded animal. Before the mass of dead plants collapse, leaving only the withered remains of both floral and flesh.
(If the party wishes to search for Connor's remains or whats left of him, it will take some time. Otherwise, I'll continue about the passage down.)
The party continues down the passage, eventually coming to the cliff that Nasaar's familiar saw. With little to no difficulty, the party descends down it and continue downwards. The passage turns and turns, along with the fungi started to appear once more. It continues on for quite a bit and the only change to the bleak cave as you travel is the sound of water, dripping somewhere. Though the monotone atmosphere is broken by something moaning.
Up ahead, you can see the passage finally leads you to a more open cavern. The entrance to it outlined with luminescent mushrooms. More were inside the cavern, casting a shadow on a fight going on inside.
(Due to the mushrooms, any attempt at stealth will be done at disadvantage.)

Hari grunts. "Ta muut," she says briefly at the sight of Connor being ripped apart, then continues attacking the mound.

OOC: Ta muut is Goblin for "You have honor". I will totally be using the Goblin glossary in Exploring Eberron a ton now, heehee.

(It's first roll for both was already a miss. And the fight is pretty much over, just seeing who gets the last hit on it.)

Nasaar frowns at the sound of combat. He wonders who got here before them. With a gesture of a hand he sends his owl forward to investigate.

Sylvester is going to try to stealth despite the light.
