"I'm not nearly strong enough to cast angelic aspect, no; you've got to be a pretty experienced paladin to get that one. And yeah, it rubs me the wrong way to not rush to help them, but I'm not sure how I'd get up and I'm all out of smites and lay on hands for today anyway, so I'm not sure how helpful I would be."

She starts, noticing something.

"Oh, there's Anevia. Crud, I'm not sure I can lift those rocks off her safely myself. Are either of you any good at lifting?"

"Yeah." Ky isn't very much stronger than a normal adult man yet but she's getting there, and between her and Iskander they can get some rocks off.

"Thanks! Gotta say, that's not the least favorite place I've ever been stuck, but it's definitely up there."

She winces as she takes a step.

"Though I don't think my legs are especially happy with me even now that I'm out. Scaling this would be tough at the best of times, but I'm pretty sure I definitely can't now. Does anyone see a way out, or are we stuck until someone comes by with some rope?"

"Well, the crevasse is pretty big, but it can't all be the same depth. If we make our way to the other end, it's probably a lot shorter climb."

Ky hems her cloak and gets the remaining paper into a layered roll around the injured leg by way of a splint. "I don't know what I'm doing but I'd bet this is better than nothing," she says.

"What you want is to immobilize it - a bit more like that, yeah - and then wrap it so it stays in place."

She tests her leg gingerly.

"I can't put much weight on this, but I think I can walk unassisted if it's not very fast and I can probably still shoot as long as I don't need to move at the same time. I could go faster if someone helped me, but there's a tradeoff there between movement speed and being able to respond to emergencies and not tiring out the people who would have to do most of the work."

"Well, do we have anywhere to be in a hurry?"

"I work with the Eagle's Watch on tracking down demon cultists, and we're going to be overworked with everything going on even if we're not missing manpower, but that's not urgent enough on the scale of hours that we should be taking risks for it. A bigger concern on my part is I'd rather get some distance between here and ground zero in case Deskari starts swinging his scythe like that again. He's not likely to stick around too long but it would still really help my peace of mind.

"Plus, in the state the city's in I'm not sure when they'll be in a position to send a rescue party to look here as opposed to, say, unburying people from collapsed houses, so getting out before water becomes a going concern could be pretty important. Unless one of you is a cleric?"

"Don't even know what that is."

"If we could get a fire started we could hot-air-balloon out of here but we should make a little more progress along the crevasse first, so as not to be right there."

"Cleric is the hallit word for empowered followers of a god - not paladins like me, the ones everyone gets. They do healing, diseases, and in this specific case they can make pretty much as much water as they want. I'm not sure what a hot air balloon is, but I'm definitely enthusiastic about getting some distance."

 She walks over to Anevia and puts her shoulder under Anevia's arm. With the armor, it's clearly not the most comfortable support possible, but Anevia can make a decent enough pace with that assistance.

Hike hike.

There's a woman there, leaning over a body. From the looks of it, the person in question is dead.

Of... the collapse?

...Probably not? He definitely looks injured by the fall, but there are also a bunch of other injuries.

"What happened to him?"

"Demons, I'm afraid; the fall was the straw that broke the camel's back. I went to heal him, but he was already dead and I'm not strong enough to cast breath of life."

("What the hell kind of illustrati do they throw here anyway.")

("No idea, not the time to dig into it.")

"That's a pity. We're going to keep walking along the crevasse till we find a place where the surface looks clear and then maybe float out with a hot air balloon, if we can get a fire going."

"When I prepare spells tomorrow, I can ask for create flame, but I'm not sure how much good that will do without a fuel source and I'm not strong enough to spontaneously grow plants either; thorn spears doesn't work either, they disappear if they ever leave my hands and they're not terribly big. Hopefully there's just a way out that doesn't require waiting that long - I assume by the fact that you're coming from that direction that there's nothing at that end?"

"Didn't try the other direction, but there was nothing obvious."

"In that case, if you don't mind I'll join you."

She has a pretty fancy rapier, and her clothes are all high quality - judging by the lack of further adornment, she's probably not the wealthiest person in the city by any means, but definitely well to do. Unfortunately, as it turns out, there isn't an easier way up at the end, but there is what looks to be a natural cave.

That has some giant bugs coming out, of course! I hope you're prepared for centipedes that spit venom.

Not really specifically, no!! The guard of the spear flares out to block the venom from hitting Ky and she spears them.

Camellia will stab one of the others, and then the last two die to Anevia's arrows.
