Edarial gets to helping people out from under the dragon. Phix first. Because she looks like Iobel.

Darren celebrates by throwing up again.

Phix coughs and hacks and and drags herself away from the dragon. She attempts to get to her boyfriend but her magic has other ideas; it heals her and leaves her collapsed in an awkward midform on the floor by the dragon's wing.

Katydid, eyes aglow, strides through the portal and promptly drops her charge.

Rain looks at her, smiles a little and resists the urge to scoop her up into a hug right then and there. He - will get everyone out from under the dragon, first.

"I appear to have missed most of the drama, what happened?"

"Well, dragon, first. He pinned Phix immediately. Hit me with his tail, and I'm pretty sure, broke my leg. I stabbed him, Max showed up and got interrupted during a spell and - I don't know what that means, but I think it's bad." She looks at Max, who nods a bit before going back to coughing. "And then I tried stabbing again, got snatched, and Rae and I tag-teamed to try and hold off on killing us. Then Rain zapped him."

"...I can fix your leg. I have no idea if the healing I have will do for Max. Where are the daeva?" Iobel starts charging a spell to heal Idania.

"Rae was trying to find them, Spring too, I think, but - I don't know. Healing will be great."

The spell goes off presently. "Max, I'll try something generic, but I don't know if it'll help," she says, and her eyes glow again.

Meanwhile, Spring has successfully located the daeva flying lazily in the clouds above Perinixu's domain. "There you are - hurry - dragon in the Belfry!" she exclaims.

"Wh - how'd it get in?" asks Cam, changing directions.

Adana follows, eyes wide. "I thought their portal was hidden?"

Max nods a little to Katydid, and crawls his way over to his girlfriend.

Also meanwhile, Rae informs Cricket: "Rain handled the dragon. You were instrumental. Thank you."

"Perhaps he will eventually redeem himself," says Cricket, ceasing in his search for Zevros to sit nonchalantly in a hallway and lick a paw. "You are welcome."

"It needs a password," says Spring, prompting her necklace to obey the direction change and lead the daeva back. "But he could have chased them in if he was following close enough."

"That seems like an oversight, if their world's so dangerous - I'll bother Prime or Cypress about it, see if we can prevent this from happening again."

"I'm well ahead of you on that, but first, dragon, meet indestructible magic daeva."

"Yeah. Indestructible magic daeva. We should - augh, I feel so stupid now, we should have thought of this."

"What's our plan of attack on a dragon, angel? I introduce it to extremely heavy jewelry and - can it breathe fire?"

"I think so."
