Jasun closed his eyes for a moment, trying to regain his normal cool composure. Surely, he was not being instructed by powers above, he was being tested and toyed with.
"Rose, my love, my sweet."he said through grit teeth. "I do not possess that spell our bird friend used, nor would I wish to steal his thunder. I tend to save what more deadly tricks I have up my sleeve for truly dire circumstances. I appreciate your concern."
Perched precariously in the branches of the trees here is a small house, apparently lifted into the air from its foundations. The branches creak as the house teeters and sways with the wind. The house is 20 feet off the ground and as you pass through, you see two children, a boy and a girl, looking at you through the window. "Please, help us!" The boy calls out. "We are trapped up here and our father ees hurt!" You can attempt to climb up the tree with a DC15 Climb check, but a failure of 5 or more will cause the house to come crashing down, which would cause significant injury to you and kill the children inside.

Zaf needed a moment to patch himself up ((2nd level)Cure Wounds: 15). But after which, is ready to follow along after the others; trusting Rose might tend to Jirel, if healing truly was necessary for the girl.
"No.. no it does not. I should be able to tend to the children, but someone will have to climb up there."Zaf admits as the wings made ready to flap. "I leave that to the rest of you. But, do act quick. It shall not home for long I suspect." With that and a short calling to the wind to bless the ascent, the aarakocra takes off, eventually finding himself hovering awkwardly just outside the window.
"Please do not startled. I came to help. My friends should be up shortly to aid your father. But they cannot with you here. So please."He spoke to them, layering some truth while disguise the lies. "One at a time, mind you. All will be well shortly."
Rose watches in fear for the children, gnawing at the bottom of her lip as Zaf flies his way to get the children out of the house. "Jirel," The cleric gives a wide eyed look to the barbarian. "C-can you get up there? I-I can help give you a boost, a-and..." She'll frantically search through her pouch and pull out one of the healing potions and hand it over. "T-This should help the father."
Had Jirel obliged, Rose will help Jirel climb the tree, also giving her some Guidance just as she leaves her touch.

Jirel would grunt in acknowledgement when Rose would address her. She’d accept the potion with no change on her face. The barbarian will crack her neck and roll her shoulders back as she’d plan her path up the tree.
Without further ado, the goliath will do a bit of a trot before leaping at the tree and making her attempt to climb up it as per Rose’s instructions.
Athletics: 10 Guidance: 4
The goliath scaled the tree with comfort and ease, her muscles rippling beneath her skin as she’d climb. If there was a time for Jirel to come off as graceful, this was it.
Zaf is able to fly the children down with no problem. His deception isn't the best, but these kids are like 8 and it doesn't really seem like you're lying when the pretty Viking lady is able to effortlessly climb up to the house and feed the dad a potion, healing his leg. The dad asks you to hand him a rope and if you oblige, he ties it to the tree and quickly scales down.

Jirel would have offered to carry the injured man down, but would provide the rope should he insist its preference. Scaling and leaping her way back down with the same amount of ease.
When the children are safely on the ground, Rose makes sure to give them a once over to make sure they were okay and uninjured. Upon seeing the father able to climb down himself, she breathes a sigh of relief and gives him a look over as well to ensure there were no other injuries. "H-how did this happen?" She'll ask him, looking up to the levitating house.
Once given the answer and reply had she needed to, she waves the trio off with a sad smile on her face. "Good thing we showed up on time..." She murmurs to the group, relieved. After a moment, she glances over to Jirel, who had otherwise been rather... reserved, and gives her a hug. "Thank you," She whispers quietly to the barbarian before pulling away and giving her a nod and a small smile.
Rose will then lead them to M6.

Area M6
A large chunk of stone juts from the ground like a natural stage. Six boulders float in the air and slowly orbit the raised platform. The rich scent of loamy earth hangs heavy in the air. A fey creature is here, playing his flute while an Earth Elemental stands guard. “Turn back, mortals, you cannot pass. We have come to claim this reality, and we’ll take the Crone’s hovel with us. Turn away and live your lives in peace and safety, unburdened by the heavy weight of relevance.”

Jirel would wrap an arm around Rose to reciprocate the hug without thought. She’d give the firbolg a bow of her head in response, happy to have been of use to her.
The barbarian would step forward, sizing up the guardian elemental without even a grunt.
Inspired by Zaf’s prowess, Jirel will heave her axe with a grin, bringing it down on Troll 2.

A good kisser and a great fighter? What more could a fool Warlock want.
Jasun looks over the situation and groans. "Oh, this doesn't look good.."
Then he realized he had to climb. There must of been another way. It looked unsafe and one false move could mean disaster.
Zaf needed a moment to patch himself up ((2nd level)Cure Wounds: 15). But after which, is ready to follow along after the others; trusting Rose might tend to Jirel, if healing truly was necessary for the girl.
