Rain ignores Jimjar and doesn't move to cut the rope just yet though she does answer Ashas' questions. " We are getting out of here and I don't think Ilvara would be merciful. So no, I will not be coming back with you"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Lormon takes 4 slashing damage after trying to escape the manacles again. Cant stress enough its one and done now for these checks.)
Prince Derandil moves at a much faster pace to get across the bridge, seeming to believe the junior priestess as much as Rain does. He does make it to the other side however. Getting to the other side he hurridly yells for someone to cut the ropes.
Asha doesnt move forward, instead keeping an eye on all of you, before saying Well this certainly won't do. Whatever shall i do with these now I wonder. She says, then slowly pulling from behind her back, reveals Ags spell component pouch. She jingles it in the air, holding it up teasingly. Maybe we can trade? Are you willing to do me a favor? She asks, looking back over her shoulder quickly to ensure nobody is around or paying attention. Which is pretty easy to deduce as literal demons are attacking the outpost and prisoners are escaping left and right.
Asha looks over her shoulder quickly one last time, before throwing the pouch containing your spell components to you. She smiles coolly at you before replying Get out of here and never return. Dont think this is pity or anything like that. Just make it your mission in life to escape the Underdark. Do we have a deal then? She says, turning to leave, as none other than Stool comes waddling as best he can from the shrine room as well, but unfortanetly, hes just a bit too far away for Rain or Ag to reach him telepathically just yet.
"Monk sprint for it, grab the little guy and get back here. The second you get close I'm cutting the ropes one by one, you'll have to be quick" Zvaere says to rain getting ready to slash the ropes
Armed with his spell pouch, Ag removes a small copper wire.
With a look of concentration on his face, he points at Asha and whispers a few words that only she can hear:
I will certainly do my best, although I'm surprised at your somewhat altruistic turn of mind. I thank you kindly for the pouch. (She may whisper a message back if she wishes, at least until she gets beyond 120', the range of the spell.)
Ag then turns toward Stool and whispers Run buddy, run! We'll wait as long as we can! (Stool can understand if it knows common and can reply in words if it uses any verbal language other than telepathy.)
Rain manages to get Stool no problem, and returning to the guard tower, Zvaere cuts the 3 remaining ropes sending the bridge crashing against the side of the stalagmite.
Asha responds to your message Yes well, trust me when i say this, I am not doing this to help you. Im doing this to help me. Just know, should we meet again, I'll be wanting a return on this favor.
(You guys can grab your equipment and book it if you want, nothing between you and the escape route to the North.)
"Agreed" Rain says to Ag and since she is still holding Stool in her arms she shifting him onto her back to keep her hands free. "Hold on tight when necessary" she instructs while moving to exit the place.
You all make it out of the guard tower, passing by the quaggoth den. Several of them trying to gnaw at the bars to get out. Behind you, the sound of crossbow bolts being fired can be heard, the shrieks of the demons, but you keep running, passing by the northern watch post, eympty and void of the usual drow guards that stand watch there.
The sound of crossbow bolts seem to stop As there is a loud buzzing noise, and you can reckognize it as the [Tooltip Not Found] Ilvara had cast on you when you first tried to escape. The shrieking of the demons cones to an end, and as you head out of the small cavern, finally escaping your captivity by the drow, you can make out Ilvaras voice once more.
What do you mean they escaped Asha! Get Shoor and Jorlan, we're going after them! Now!
OK, so from what I can tell, we've just holed ourselves up in area 10 there after cutting the bridge. We need to scope out 11&12 for possible leads out or find a way down to the bottom of the cavern. (Either down the sides of the wall, climb down the webbing maybe, or hop into the water?

Well, what do you need?
"Hurry up Derandil we'll wait" Lupus says evenly he then turns his attention to the junior priestess.
"Do you really think we'll believe a drow would be forgiving? I thought you were smarter" Lupus says tighting the grip on his greatsword.
(I did the broken thum trick)
lormon “how long do we have” asking rain “I can gets us out of the underdark the quickest” as he pulls an arrow out of his quiver

"Monk sprint for it, grab the little guy and get back here. The second you get close I'm cutting the ropes one by one, you'll have to be quick" Zvaere says to rain getting ready to slash the ropes
Rain nods to Zvaere before dashing forward, moving 80ft to grab Stool and return to the group with some movement possibly left over.
She then turns to Lormorn, " If it is the quickest route out of here then go for it. Any equipment left behind is not worth our lives"
Armed with his spell pouch, Ag removes a small copper wire.

As soon as zvaere thinks rain will safely make it across with stool he starts cutting the bridge down
Rain manages to get Stool no problem, and returning to the guard tower, Zvaere cuts the 3 remaining ropes sending the bridge crashing against the side of the stalagmite.

It seems there's not much left for us here, and certainly plenty of flying crazy things to avoid, lets get out of here!
"Agreed" Rain says to Ag and since she is still holding Stool in her arms she shifting him onto her back to keep her hands free. "Hold on tight when necessary" she instructs while moving to exit the place.
“Alright let’s move people” as lormon starts to jog “ the bridge gives us more of an head start”
Zvaere is moving a bit slower in the back both to cover our escape just in case and attempting to put on as much armor as he can while walking

Rain continues to the exit, not stopping until she reaches the outside world.
Lormon goes with rain
Lormon will go the safest way out of the work camp
