Bas saw the animals and despaired. Before embarking on this quest, he had known there would be dangers. What he hadn't expected were the psychological dangers. One phenomena after another had assaulted his sensibilities, from giant brains to magical chasms and cliffs. This assault from nature itself was the last straw, and for a moment time seemed to slow as he watched creatures he would otherwise have considered his friends approach in a murderous frenzy.
A clap of thunder shook Bas back to awareness, and the immediacy of the danger to himself as well as the people he traveled with spurred him to action. He raced towards Balth and Anne, the incantation for the spell 'Invisibility to Animals' springing unbidden to mind.
"Trust me, and don't attack them," was all he could say as he reached his companions. He casted his spell, touching each of the recipients in turn, before motioning that they leave the area with haste.
