After checking once more for any signs of traps or other oddities around the body, you determine it is safe. Glabbagool slowly glides into the room, and begins to converge around body, the organs being sucked into the gelatinous mass with a sickening squelching noise. You decide to leave him to his task and take off in the direction you believe your friends went.
You travel quickly, wanting to catch up before any more harm befalls anyone. You travel for a day, resting only as needed before coming into a wide cavern, filled with webs. It appears the tracks head directly into the webs, where you see signs of the webbing itself being cut, pulled and burned. They must have gone through them, but you can't see very far in to know how far the webbing that fills the cavern extends.
"Wait, isn't this that... Sulken Path, or whatever its name was?" Valrish asks.
Unlike the silken path, which is a long swath of webs across a deep cavernous pit that stretches down into darkness, this is just a cave full of webs. You're on the ground currently, and can burn, tear, or climb your way through if you like.
The webbing takes flame almost immediately and begins to quickly burn away from the center towards the cave walls. A path opens up down the center of the flaming mass of webs.
(OOG Let's have everyone make a Perception check. Zippy too, and he gets advantage)
Oorr and zippy spot it first. A small wriggling pile of webs the shape of a gnome or similar creature. It's caught about 30 feet up in the webs, and it's moving frantically as the flames start licking up towards it. Oorr just makes out the muffled yelling of something coming from the pile.

"I guess we need to follow this path. Zippy, my friend, walk on the webs and warn us if danger is coming."

I curse internally, drop concentration on create bonfire, and start casting frostbite on the webs just in front of the fire.
