Here is a demon. The demon is in his swimming pool.
He doesn't swim naked, so he takes the summon anyway.
demon cam vs the clam planet

Yeah. He just makes air around himself as he wades. It won't kill him or anything but he's not fond of this stuff. Is this napalm? Maybe, he can make some to compare later, whatever, wade wade.
After that it's all puddles for a few minutes, and then the next Sphere small enough to fill with something has been filled with oily black sand, and the sand then lit on fire.
The sand is heavy and threatens to collapse his tunnel once or twice, but is ultimately no match for his magic powers.
On the other side: more puddles of napalm-like substance.
Also, it has now been two hours since he was stunned.

Goo, goo, puddles of goo, another Sphereful of goo, a big heap of burning sand piled up over one of the portals on his route, more goo. Two hours and ten minutes. Two hours and fifteen minutes. Two and a half hours.
At two hours and thirty-six minutes, Cam is dismissed.

Cam hopes that the one triplet did that on purpose and the aliens aren't just filling the clam planet with napalm.
He's not in particularly tidy shape. Quickest possible shower while they draw his new circle. If they draw his new circle.

His summoner this time is... a triplet. Looks like the one who's full of artificing trivia, if he's gotten that good at distinguishing triplets.
"Oh good, it worked," he says when Cam appears.

"Oh for fuck's sake, I was stunned for twenty minutes and trying to get past an obstacle course of wrecked relays to get back in touch -" Cam says. "Okay. Who wants to try summoning him."

"Father went to check his Sphere. We should tell Dalvor we have you back, before anything else."

Cam makes a new one. "I'm back. Maze of spheres between here and Earth is full of various nasty stuff, slowed me down, wrecked the relays. Should probably have given me more than two hours the first time relays were wrecked and I was that far away. Anything interesting going on here besides the obvious and creepy?"

"Mostly politics," says the king. "With you back, I at least won't have to organize a planetwide evacuation into the Spheres, for which I'm very grateful."

"Not that we've seen. But if they were preparing another assault from the portal, we wouldn't be likely to hear about it until it arrived."

"Yeah. I'll go check it out. ...First though, you, whichever one you are, try dismissing and resummoning me, there's the circle for you to finish," he makes a new one, "I assume he tried but maybe there's some specific reason it didn't work, the wings or something."

"Okay. So if your brother doesn't make it back please hold off on the suicide, I'm going to feel very awkward about that later when I'm not in such a desperate hurry to singlehandedly fend off an alien invasion, where the fuck are we." He looks around.
