Yvonne and Elsa are busy either requesting or receiving aid from the clerics and the small handful of medical bots left in the Med Bay. Yvonne looks around the room with a sort of perplexed curiosity: There seem to be far fewer med-bots here than there were before, and there's less technological equipment in favor of bulky alchemical machines. *I like to think that, since the King at the Lair isn't the most knowledgeable about the Guild's more high-tech aspects, things have slowly been replaced with more arcane and alchemical substitutes that are more familiar to him. (Of course, I won't implement this without your approval: The King is your character, after all.)*
Amidais is slightly taken aback by the King's piercing glare, but follows him at a safe distance outside of stabbing range: He's aware that the King is struggling with many burdens, and may not want his help, but he is highly loyal to the Guild and its ruler *perhaps overly so ;)* and will continue to assist the King in any way he can... even in death.

The Party slowly encroaches on a Caravan. Previously been enlisted by a "Scarred" Halfling. Each step they take is accompanied by the rain droplets. As they near the Caravan there is a sudden Bang from the inside. A Scream is heard shortly after. The party, if, they open the door is met with a Grimacing scene. The party's smallest member is apparently on the floor dead. Yet they stand next to them all. If they had not opened the door and try to find a backway in, They are met with a sudden field of force around them, forcing to enter inside the caravan. If they choose to inspect the body, They must make a DC 20 wisdom saving throw or fear their soul being taken. If they choose to investigate the Caravan, the other members of the party bodies fall to the ground.
Damn, I can practically feel the horror vibes coming off that, and I love it. Would the scream be in the smallest members voice? Or something else? It would be even more interesting if they felt they recognised it.
Yeah, sorry if I didn't clarify the Voice. I thought it was obvious that it was the Smallest Member.
No no that's cool! I'm just interested in what you're going for, its great. You wanna join the guild? Or you still staying out cause you head up other guilds?

*Me too, this stuff is so much fun to write as well. I've always wanted to do a king villain arc*
The king is mostly unharmed due to his own self healing and lay on hands, its only his leg that the two clerics standing by him work on. Elsa and the Queen overhear them say something about removing the shrapnel and bolstering the leg strength, but also that healing is still partly ineffective and will have to heal naturally due to the radiation. (The king will take damage whenever he takes the dash action or succeeds on a dex save, until the wounds have healed.) *Also, that change to arcane and alchemical substitutes is actually perfect, I fits well. I also realise that I may have made a big plot movement on the king without asking you first- my eagerness for him to collapse and for us to have good king vs bad king may have caused an oversight. I hope what I did is okay with you! If not I can change it.*
*I like where this is going, a loyal Amidais will throw in another pivotal character dynamic.* The spider king (calling him that now so we can tell the difference lol) glances back at Amidais, not expecting him to follow. A pang of appreciation runs through him, maybe not every part of this world is against his goals.
"Come, Amidais. We have work to do."

Yvonne and Elsa thank the clerics for their assistance, and head back to the King: Yvonne is still missing a leg, but it's stopped bleeding and her other injuries are all healed- The clerics had some slight difficulty aiding Elsa, but managed to make it work. Elsa is enjoying their regained joint function as Yvonne sits beside him, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Seems like this place has changed a bit since we've been gone- not that it isn't a welcome change, but it's... unexpected." Yvonne glumly looks at a machine in the back of the room- one of the last few in the Med Bay, unplugged and visibly covered in a fine layer of dust.
Amidais follows his King, a bit closer this time, as he pockets his spellbook: He's not very good at this whole wizardry thing, probably because it's loads of work on top of his typical archivist and attendant duties. Amidais glances at the King's dragon-slaying blade... perhaps the path of the cleric would be more his speed.

"I agree, I swear there used to be more... cogs and parts, more machines so to say." He lets out a small chuckle. "But its good to be back."
The king gets up, testing out his leg, which seems a lot more usable now. He's smiling, relaxing for the first time in too long. "We may not have defeated the doctor, but I feel we're one step closer to figuring all this out, and drawing towards a brighter future." He puts out a hand, towards the queen. "Here's to coming back the the guild, alive, and to the three of us fighting on."
The Spider King, along with Amidais, is almost at his destination. Where he's sensing the trio isn't far now, at all.

Elsa places their hand on top of the handshake. "-And here's to a better--- tomorrow, every tomorrow."
...
Meanwhile, Amidais finally speaks up. "M- my liege, if you don't mind me asking, where are we going?" It's not like the answer matters: Amidais would walk right into the Gape itself to follow his King.

Maybe he gets close, but the trio escapes to the kingdom just in time. I don't think the final showdown of the two sides of the guild should happen yet. And maybe they meet outside the sick bay, nearer to the guilds entrance/exit?*

He blinks a couple times. "Good gracious, how did I not recognize it before? You're right! I could go get us a whole load of this if you'd like?"
"We could - and probably will have to - send in a full operation in to steal as much as we can. Its not so much that we need it, but that it scares me if they have it." He pauses for a moment, deep in thought. You can see the exhaustion, and even the fear in his eyes. "Mr Yondor, I am going to ask you to do something that is beyond what I should ask of anyone."
