A strong scent of sweat rises from Rhok. His muscles tense and the ropes that were binding him give out under the stress. He stands up, his face almost unrecognizable. He is covered in gray hair, his mouth extended forward and two prominent flat teeth extend out even when he closes his mouth. His hands are also covered in gray fur, and his fingers are almost twice as long as before.
Seeing Lia standing near he turns around to run away from her.
Away in the meadow, Lothlién takes the flower remains and crouches down, looking for more plants with the same leafs. He finds some under a low shrub. He carefully takes the whole plant out into the moonlight, making three white flowers bloom.
Looking at the withe flowers, Xarroth is convinced that these are the ones they need.
Under the willow tree, Rhok only looks at Lia for a moment before running past her. As he runs east towards the moon, Lia sees a hairless tail has grown on the ranger.
Lothlién believes, or at least hopes, that the few flowers they have found would be enough. He walks back to the willow tree to find Lia waiting there alone.
Sabastian flies high following Rhok. The ranger keeps going east for a mile and a half, until he finds a large underbrush below three great oak trees. Finding a spot there where he can hide, Rhok crawls under the bushes hiding from view. The owl keeping watch over him perches on one of the oaks, listening to any sound that may indicate that Rhok is on the move.
"He proved too strong for my magic." Lia says with a sigh as the others arrive back. "Sorry, I guess your trust in me was unfounded." She nods off in the direction the owl went. "Sabastian is watching over him, as the owl has not yet returned, which it would do if it lost him. If anything happens we will be informed, otherwise I suggest we just let him be until he returns in the morning."
"We could, but how close do we get without risking sending him running further?" Lia asks with a frown. "Right now my familiar will be keeping an eye on him and, if something does happen, will return to me to let me know. If we keep following him, then there is a good chance we will send him running further than he already has."
"Troubling news indeed."Xarrothlooks out into the night where Rhokcould have gone, but then back at Lia, "you have nothing to apologise for. This was no small feat to take on as this curse is powerful. We will help our companion return together, and with Bahamut's grace."
"I was thinking about some 60ft aaround him. Hiding, so we don't scare him off. But if you both understand that it's safer as we are, I'm with you." Lothlién clarifies.
Night passes uneventfully, Rhok stays hidden in the bushes, half asleep and unaware of Sabastian perched up keeping watch over him. Xarroth, Lia and Lothlién stay far enough to be undetected, taking turns to keep watch.
As the sun comes back up, Rhok transforms back to his normal self. He does not completely remember what happened during the night and does not recognize the place where he woke up.

Lia seps directly up to Rhok. He must make a DC 13 Wis save or be under the affect of her hypnotic gaze.

OOC: of course, when you want to fail a save....

"is this enough?" Lothlién asks Xarroth. If he thinks it is, he'll make his way back to the camp.
"Hmm, let us see if these are the right one..." Xarroth looks around at the flowers.
Nature: 19
Perception: 9

Lia's spell doesn't affect Rhok and the ranger continues to run away.
OOC: if Xarroth or Lothlién want to keep searching for more flowers, please roll for nature and perception and describe where do you want to look.
Would Lothlién know if they have enough flowers? If he has no way to be sure, or if he knows it's enough, he'll head back to the camp.
Lia sighs and sits down. Nothing more she can do. She sends Sabastian to follow Rhok and keep an eye on him though.

"Shouldn't we be at least closer to him? just so we can keep track and act quicker if something bad happens?" Lothlién suggests

Rhok stays in hiding for the moment in the brush
