Rose's breathing quickly goes ragged after tanking all those hits. As she was never one to be selfish, she pushes herself to be this one time. "I-I can't let them down..." She'll mutter, lifting and pointing her staff at the ugly blood sucking leech.

Jasun kneels by Rose to make sure she's ok. "Rose, my dear, are you alright?"

He makes a curious face, then sniffs the air. "Is that..snicker doodle..?"

Jirel would hover over Rose’s kill, snarling. Pulling herself away, she will march the perimeter before standing watch at the edge of the social circle while she waited for the firbolgs response. She hoped her friend was alright. Jirel will also glance to Zaf, bowing her head to him to see how he fairs. 

"I-I'm okay. Thank you, Jasun." Rose breathes out softly. "And yes, yes it is." She confirms, but doesn't explain any further. "Is everyone else okay?" She passes a worried look over to Zaf. "I suppose this is as good as a time as any to rest, yes? J-just for an hour..."

During their rest, Rose with look around the area to see if she could possibly find anymore goodies like she did before.

During the short rest Jasun flipped through an old book, like a travel journal. He read it quietly, studying his notes on the eldritch and the cosmic. There were so many questions, so many answers to find. There was so little mortals understood, and T’vauz gave him just a tease of power. He wanted more. He came to a picture of Jezzika, unsure how it got there. He looked at it for a moment. She was beautiful, as if some other entity from another reality had made her even more so upon her transformation. She was doing her best to try and open his heart but every time he refused. He knew that she did not want HIM, per se, but what he could become. The Elder Gods chose their Heralds for specific reasons and he knew, perhaps one of the few, that the price was always too high. This was not the same Jezzika that loved astronomy as a child. This Jezzika was chosen at birth to be something the universe would never comprehend and in part serve a power that would consume world and spread its taint among the stars. She gave her soul for knowledge he wanted too, but there must be another way.

Even now as he read, he could feel her presence in his mind. Caressing him, wanting him. No. The real Jezzika never had a chance to show the world herself, and Jasun knew that falling for her would doom his soul as well.

Zaf too had fluttered by Rose, but restrained himself to taking stock of her injuries from at least a couple of feet. Seeing Jireal glance in his direction out of the corner of an eye, he returns her gesture with a head cocked to the side in confusion, and then righting himself to smile again with his eyes in understanding. Again, his attention turns to the others to suggest, "I think its time that we take at least a brief breather indeed. Though, I at least, possess some magic to aid in pressing forward still, we should not be to reckless or eager to face death."

"It may come for us all eventually, but let it not be today, eh?" Assuming there's no arguments there, Zaf finds some spot well away from the dead monstrosity, makes some gesture his form, and then sits in meditation for a while.

Short Rest Healing(1): 8, expending 1 more to top off: 5.

After rests end, he'd discuss with the rest what paths yet remain untried by them..

There's nothing else in this room.

Sera sits in the corner and bandages her wounds during the short rest.

SR dice: 7

Jirel will pace the perimeter one more time before settling in an area out of the way. Her heart still raced and her breathing heavy. The goliath will pause deciding she too should take a moment to rest, perhaps even centre herself. She’ll place her hands cupping her lower abdomen, close her eyes and take a seat on the ground. Jirel will arrange herself in the lotus position and remind herself to breathe.

Area Q13

A long red carpet extends from the western doorway of this mirrored hall between ice sculptures of twin nymphs, ending at an open alcove to the east. Passageways continue north and south, following the contours of the tower’s outer wall, where windows look out over the open courtyard below. "There ees a teleporter here." Hatch says. "Eet can take us right to the reetual chamber. Onward, upward, een a teeck. Don't be late, just be quick." Once again, you are briefly encased in ice and sent up to the top floor.

Area Q20

A translucent image of a globe hangs suspended in midair, slowly rotating in place, above a summoning circle in the blue-tiled floor of this large chamber. Lines of arcane energy glow across the globe’s surface, faintly humming with power as they connect multiple endpoints in a radiant glow bright enough to illuminate the domed ceiling overhead. Many tables and shelves covered in books, maps, and large scrolls line the room’s circular walls, and a large ornate mirror hangs between two open windows to the west. Twin ice sculptures of demonic fiends flank a bubbling cauldron in an archway leading into a deep alcove in the southern wall. Also in here is a bearded man with a raven on his shoulder. "You must be the rebels attempteeng to stop my love's work. You weel never succeed. She weel be the Queen and plunge all of Golarion eento an eternal weenter."
