The blankness of her mind was being shaken off literally, as she felt herself almost flying through the air. Bopping up and down crazily, she gagged as motion sickness now attacked her. What in the name of gods is going on here? As her mind and line of vision cleared, she peered around and found herself swinging about, her waist gripped tightly by the branches of this literally living tree.

Another glance showed her that all was not well. In the distance, she saw her abandoned longsword and that Rehan was dashing off - good for you, flee and get reinforcements if you want! But don't you come back on a fool's errand by yourself! - while Jared was barely being trampled to death before lifted airborne and dangled like a rag doll. In the fleeting moment where they came within a distance of some thirty feet apart, she whispered her incantations, feeling herself enveloped in a bath of cheering light... as Jared began to pull away, she saw him in a likewise position, the whiffs of glowing light circling his frantic expression.

Wildly, she now bent down and unsheathed her daggers, one of which she had fortunately remembered to fit back onto her right boot. Gripping them fiercely, she began scanning the surface of the malevolent monster which now sought their destruction.

Bark... leaves... branches... - she was losing hope fast, with the rapid confusion threatening to misguide her sense of direction - moss... more bark... twigs... but just at that moment, she blinked.

There were two gleaming pools in the scratchy surface that greeted her.

Eyes narrowing, she gritted her teeth as she saw the gloating hatred in those shiny orbs even as her body was being elevated towards an opening, which could only be this vile creature's mouth...

"Get ready to cushion your fall, Jared!" It was the only coherent yell she could now manage, her heart throbbing determinedly as she drew closer and closer to the cavern of darkness before her.

With a ferocious cry, she took aim and flung the daggers, one after another, at the eyes of the treacherous tree...

OOC: The spell she cast on herself and Jared is "Chant" [img]smile.gif[/img] Let's see what happens next... [img]tongue.gif[/img]
