You Are What Has Eaten You
Chandanar drags himself out of the mass of calamari and wipes tentacle goo off his leather jerkin. Grossest. Mission. Yet. He straightens and grins at you Izzick. Good ta see ya. I'm all for that as a direction.
He glances that way. The passage ahead turns and slopes downwards. I mean...what's tha worst that could happen?
The two of you move quickly before your spell ends. The passage turns several times but keeps sloping downwards. It finally levels off and ends at a large opening on to what looks like a wooden stage that looks out at what can only be described as a village of mushroom men.
A number of large puff ball looking structures you assume serve as housing cluster along the walls of the worm's intestine. The mushroom men have somehow amassed a large amount of wood and built a stage of sorts, which you've come on to the back of. Izzick, you see the halfling you spotted before, riding the giant mushroom, headed for the stage. Behind him, in the middle of the 'village' is a large pile of bound Mantis assassins.
Chandanar slaps your shoulder and nods upwards. There, high above it all, are Zuni, Zac, and Selvin, apparently on an ariel recon. There's the ZZS. Ya think we can join 'em?
THe answer to that question is 'not likely', as the halfling and giant mushroom take the stage...
Selvin and Zuni you take to the friendly skies and manage to skirt along the roof of the world...er, gut. Below, the halfling and giant mushroom are taking the stage. The smaller mushrooms are starting to gather around the stage.
You notice two things: first, you have found Izzick and Chandanar. They are standing in an opening in the wall at the back of the stage. They seem to have seen you as well as the cleric points you out to the necromancer. The halfling doesn't seem to have noticed them as he seems more intent on looking out over the mushrooms.
The second thing you notice is that there are several Mantis of the unbound type taking positions around the mushroom village. It looks like a strike force is about to conduct a raid on the village, perhaps in an attempt to free their comrades.
Alright folks. Izzy, you and Chandy are at the back of the stage. Selvin and Zuni, I am assuming you are near the top of the ceiling, probably hovering above the prisoner pile. Thus far, no one has noticed any of you. I'll let you all post before... well. You'll see.
Let me know if there are any questions or things are not clear. Thanks.
