The Cave
Sunday, 7th of Goodmonth
Mid Morning, Hot, Sunny, Humid, Buggy
Ren continues to flail his sword around wildly, as could be expected from someone fighting with their eyes closed. His strike doesn't even come close to hitting the slightly amused hag.
"Oh, ok." He shouts back to Galanthas. "Please stop doing that, then!"
Wes has a better idea. Instead of fighting the hag blindly, he tries to blind the hag as he fights. He feigns a futile attack with his club while he throws a handful of sand at her hideous face from his other hand, hitting her perfectly with it. She coughs and sputters as she tries to blink the sand from her deadly eyes. This action causes her to forgo her current counter attack on either of them.
Galanthas looks around to make sure there are no other creepies crawling out of the cave or cliffs. Luckily, the only threat he sees is the horrible hag that is trying to kill and eat his new friends.

Wes
Wes can think of only one way to try and end this fight. He backs away slowly, trying to keep Ren between himself and the hag. Keeping the witch in his peripheral vision, he begins a deep humming sound in his chest, alternating it with a buzzing noise, as he tries to summon the thousands of insects flitting through the trees behind them to attack his enemy.

Galanthas
After seeing there is no other threat, the elf drops his bow and draws his sword again and begins to run where the action is, saying to Greff "Everything seems to be clear. I'll be right back in a moment!" while getting ready to hack the Hag as best as he can.

Wes uses the flailing of the blind Ren to his advantage, slipping behind the human while the hag continues blinking the sand out of her eyes. She swings out with her dagger at the flailing fighter, but missis him badly in her condition. He swings back at her, with similar results.
Galanthas assures the paralyzed Greff that everything will be ok and that there is nothing to worry about. He draws his sword and begins running through the deep sand towards the others. He finds that the sand is not easy to run through, so he doesn't make it there in time to help, yet.
Wes begins casting a long winded spell, hoping that the others can keep the witch occupied until he has time to finish his conjuring. As he nears the end of his summoning, the buzzing of the nearby insects begin a deafening crescendo.

The druid continues his summoning. As before, he tried to keep Ren between himself and the hag whilst watching her from the side of his eye. Once the spell reaches its climax he points clearly at the hag, directing the insects to their target, as the magic requires.

Re: Quest #18 "The Search For Dragons!"
Galanthas keeps running towards the witch. He sees Wes is onto something and, remembering his experience with the entangling vines near the village, he doesn't want to approach pass Wes, in order to see if he can attack their enemy or not, not getting swallowed by any weird nature spell. He keeps his eyes low though, trying to just see but the feet of the hag, so he can avoid her gaze.

Galanthas comes racing in and sees Wes conjuring something. The elf remembers that his desire to help got him caught up in a bind last time, so he wisely stops at the side of the casting druid.
Ren continues to swing his sword around wildly, almost hitting Wes as his spell is about to go off. His blow is easily 5 feet from the target and getting worse.
The unnatural buzzing noise really starts to ramp up, causing the druid to raise one eyebrow. By the time he gets to the final phrasing of his spell, Wes starts to see a black mass coming towards them from the trees. Within seconds, the black, shifting mass is upon the four of them. Though Wes has never cast this spell before, he is pretty sure something isn't quite right. In his visions from the Shalm, he remembers the swarm being much smaller and easier to control. But now that he has cast the spell, he sees easily 2 or 3 times the bugs that should have answered his call.
The huge, swarming cloud is actually frightening to behold in its own rite. As soon as Wes points at the hag, the swarm dives at his command. The insects swirl and swarm towards the hag, who finally seems to have regained her senses after the face sand incident. The ugly beast stands her ground, smiling her wickedly hideous smirk as she reaches out to stab at Ren again. She plunges her little dagger into the chest of the blind fighter and buries it up to the hilt.
Ren coughs up some blood and falls to the sand as the insects completely envelop him and the hag. Wes cant believe his eyes when he notices that the hag doesn't seem to be effected by his bugs. They swarm all around her, so thick that you can barely see her through their innumerable wall. But none of them actually contact her body. It is almost as if she was immune to the bugs, or possibly the magic that summoned them.
She starts to laugh annoyingly as she picks up the unmoving Ren in one hand, lifting the large fighter with ease.
"Thanks for the bugs, genius! I enjoy a little variety in my diet."
With a huge, yard thick swarm basically walling her off from the others now, she nonchalantly begins walking back towards Steve and her cave mouth again.
"Come on boys! Follow me inside for a little fun! We got enough food now for a big party!"

Seeing the witches back exposed to him as she goes by him, cackling, Wes hurls his club at it.

"Keep shooting Galanthas!, Wes urges, as the idea of a last desperate plan to at least save Greff begins to form in his mind.

Yes! The young elf sheaths his sword and begins firing again at the hag.

Wes throws his club at the departing hag. It misses her completely.
Galanthas switches his weapon for the 6th time in this battle. He fires off one arrow at the hags back, but the violet glow coming from the hag combined with the thick cloud of bugs surrounding her distorts his vision of the target and his arrow sticks into the dead body of Ren instead.
She cackles. "Great! Thanks! Now I have a handle to use. Human...on a stick, anyone?" She takes a bloody bite out of the man as she continues calmly along her way. "Come on in, boys! I can tell that you are a little curious about what awaits you inside!"
She stops at the dead body of Steve, scooping him up easily with her empty hand.
"Once I clean up this mess, we can have a little discussion about why you thought you needed to kill my Slinky!"
"Over lunch, of course!"

Galanthas not wanting to hear anything of what the fiend might have to say after what she's done to Steve, Ren and Stumpy, doesn't get discouraged and keeps firing like a madman.

Wes throws a second club that bounces off of the dark cliff wall behind the bug enshrouded, glowing hag.
Galanthas continues firing as well, his second arrow causing her to cry out in pain.
"Ouch, you sonova..... Oh? Is that how you are going to be then? So be it! I will be right back to deal with the 2 of you."
She calmly walks to the cave opening and disappears inside, still carrying Ren and Steve with her.

Wes quickly gathers up his clubs, shield and spear and retreats back into the treeline. He waits to see if the hag appears to attack them, or if they'll have time to enact a plan to rescue Greff.

"It's now or never" mutters Wes grimly. He beseeches The Shalm for protection, asking Obad-Hai to give his skin the appearance and texture of tree bark.
Then he steps out onto the sand, hoping fervently that Galanthas can bring down the hag before Wes gets close to her.
