As Falenas is healed he breathes suddenly and stands up quickly, looking everywhere. "Is it over? Are they gone?" Watching Mael at his side and Ryona and Yevele taking care of the rest, he calms down, but with an ashamed expression forms in his face. "Thanks everyone, sorry for lowering my guard. I hope to be more helpful in the future" He says looking at the ground.
As Falenas is brought back to consciousness, Yevele is likewise able to seal the blood pouring from Jarnick's wounds. Though he is in rough shape, his breathing ragged, he has stabilized.
OOC: With the threat gone, we are back to our regularly scheduled programming. Last we left off, Yevele had reached the first wide ledge with Jarnick, and Maelfearance's unseen servant was carrying Rat toward the top of the cliff.
With Falenas standing, Ryona stands as well. "They seemed to be curious little creatures. Next time, maybe they won't bite if you don't? Let me look at you."
Medicine to assess Falenas for lingering venom: 20 Ryona declares what she finds by inspecting Falenas, regarding the venom.
(next turn) Once done with her assessment, she'll motion Noah to her as she pulls a small vial of concentrated alcohol. She dabs it over Noah's shoulder at his bite. Putting what's left of it back, she puts her hand on his shoulder. As the glow comes back to her hand, she speaks while restoring Noah's vigor. "If you bare your teeth at the world before it has a chance not to, you'll never know some of the wonders."
Healing, Noah: 11
(2 turns later) Ryona will doff her shield and secure it.
(3rd turn+) Ryona secures her spear and uses a rope offered by Yevele to get up to Jarnick or will start climbing the same path Jarnick took to get up. Athletics17, 14, 15, 17, 5
Looking down as Ryona goes about healing the other wounded people, Yevele is reluctant to leave Jarnick's side. She glances up towards the yurt a couple times wondering if the dragon born might be able to help them. After a minute of indecision, Yevele gets up and sees if she can wedge her quarter staff into one of the holes. If she can, Yevele will then take her rope and wrap one end of around the staff and lower the other end down to the rest of the party. Yevele will tell them to tie one end around their waist and begin to climb. She will also pull on the rope as the person climbs higher up the cliff face will wrap another loop around the quarter staff.
If she can't wedge her quarter staff into one of the holes, Yevele will sit with her back against the cliff face, and tie the rope around her waist, and slowly pull the individuals up.
(ooc) given her height, I'm assuming Yevele weights significantly more than the other party members, and will not be pulled off the cliff by them climbing up.

Maelfearance indeed goes back to having his Unseen Servant lift Rat up as high as it safely can without disappearing (Servant has range of 60' so Mael will have it lift Rat up about 50' or so before safely letting him go.). Rat for it's part is then going to make it's way to the yurt... Maelfearance this time will stay in his own head and watch the cliffs for the recurrence of the creatures at least until Rat is at the yurt level.

Noah winces as Ryona treats the wound, but eventually exhales gratefully as the healing is complete and the pain evaporates. He nods at what she tells him, before standing and looking towards the mountain. "No rest for the weary, it seems. Give a shout if you see any flying black bears."
Noah approaches the craggy wall of rock, and attempts to locate a good foothold to assist his climb up the rope. Athletics316111
Falenas lets Ryona examine him. If everything's ok and there's nothing more to be done with the wound he'll say "Thanks Ryona, don't know what we would do without your healing prowess. Well, I guess there's no more point in myself keeping an eye. Specially with Mael and Ryona here.". He'll tie himself with Yevele's rope and start to climb.
OOC: Where were those rolls when the DC wasn't lowered by the rope...everyone's first roll succeeded, so I'll queue the others up for the next climb.
Regarding the venom, Ryona does not believe there to be any lingering concern for the poison; what wasn't relieved by Ryona's healing does not seem to be negatively affecting Falenas, and Noah seems much relieved by her healing as well.
With Yevele holding the rope, Ryona, Noah, and Falenas each ascend to join her upon the wide ledge. Maelfearance's unseen servant deposits Rat upon the cliff wall, and the familiar darts up to the top of the cliff.
For Maelfearance:
Through Rat's eyes, the upper ledge appears to be free of any presence outside of the yurt, which has its door closed.
OOC: There is another 30 feet to the top of the cliff. From the middle ledge, you can try to make the climb to two shorter ledges along the way (easy DC), one shorter ledge halfway up (medium DC) or directly to the upper ledge (hard DC). Feel free to queue up multiple rolls to speed things up.

Carefully moving around Yevele and anyone else at the ledge, Ryona gets to Jarnick, drawing in a short, sharp breath at seeing two separate snakebites. As she did with Noah, she dabs alchohol over the bites, then gently presses her hands over the bites. "Two bites could have killed a softer man. You're a tough one, Jarnick."
Healing, Jarnick: 6
After Jarnick gets to his feet, Ryona will look to the ledges, picking the easiest path. She'll gather her rope first, then proceed. "At least the most dangerous part of the Steps aren't the steps themselves."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Once the others get up to the ledge, Yevele will gather her rope and begin the climb up to the level of the yurt, climbing first to the shorter ledge halfway up and then to the ledge where the yurt is located.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Is Rat able to squeeze into the Yurt and check it out, either under the door or other cracks? Would be good to know if at least the person we're here to meet is around or not. If unable to squeeze in then will attempt to crawl up and look through a window and/or listen close to see if sounds of movement or such inside.
Once Rat has done what investigating there is to do, Maelfearance will attempt the climb again: Athletics11 , 14 , 11 , 17 , 4 , 2

The moment Jarnick regain consciousness, he bolt up and starts looking around for his rapier. He realizes the situation when he grabs the handle of his rapier, with Ryona's word he's still a bit embarrassed for going down so quick facing the snakes, "Thanks Ryona, for the healing..."
The yurt does not have any visible windows, and does not offer a space large enough for Rat to crawl within.
Rat does hear someone within, however; his ears pick up the sound of a deep baritone voice, half-singing and half-shouting some unfamiliar drinking song. The familiar also discovers a delicious smell of some sort of meat.
OOC: Some quick clarifications needed before I resolve the rest of the climbing:
Which route is Maelfearance taking to the middle ledge? If he is trying to climb the rope, is Yevele waiting for him before beginning her climb? (I assume so, just don't want to act on an assumption)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Maelfearance reaches the wide ledge as the rest of the party begins to climb upward. Yevele, Ryona, Noah, and Falenas are each able to climb to the top of the plateau through some trial and effort.
Jarnick reaches one small ledge safely, and begins to climb toward the next, when the handhold he is using suddenly crumbles from the cliffside. He falls ten feet, landing prone on his back only feet away from the surprised Maelfearance, taking 3 bludgeoning damage in the process.

ooc I thought everyone was already up to the middle ledge. But, if Mael isn't there yet, Yevele will wait for him to use the rope.
OOC: Jarnick will follow Ryona.
Mael will take a rope if available, otherwise the most right hand route.
“Someone is up and about inside,” Maelfearance will call out to the others. “Don’t know if aware of us, but the seem to be preparing a meal.”
Maelfearance reaches the wide ledge as the rest of the party begins to climb upward. Yevele, Ryona, Noah, and Falenas are each able to climb to the top of the plateau through some trial and effort.
