Chris was of two minds regarding his current situation. On one hand, he hadn’t realized how much he missed solid ground until it was back underneath his feet. He’d managed, of course, running around on that giant monster’s back and neck and head for as long as he could, but the ground (probably) wasn’t going to try and kill him. At least, not the same way everything else was. On the other hand, there was still a giant monster nearby, and just because it kept getting stunned by bolts of red light careening into its chest, that didn’t mean Chris wasn’t the most convenient target for it in the meantime. And that wasn’t even the only problem he had to deal with! Yes, there was the monster’s giant hand coming down to crush him, just as the thing had tried when he was dangling off of its back. Solid ground continued to be a boon -- Chris dove to the side, managing to finally, after all this time flinging himself away from danger, tuck and roll back to a standing position as the monster’s hand crashed behind him. He even managed to get his sword and slash at the thing’s wrist, even if it still didn’t deal the massive damage he would have liked. Still, he couldn’t help but utter, “You tried that already!” halfway between knowingly tempting fate and a self-assured war cry. Whatever consequences he might suffer, however, were more likely to come from the other monsters approaching his way from ground level. Several shadows had shaken off whatever Ziun had done to them and were now getting way too close for comfort. They were not the sort of creatures that could be dissuaded by all his dodging and weaving, though Chris did try his hardest to prove otherwise. Maybe if he turned and ran at a full tilt, but there was no way cowardice was going to get him anywhere in the long run. They were still in the dungeon, after all. Instead, Chris tried to rely on what obstacles presented themselves where they could. Another flash of red brought the giant monster to its knees, and so Chris ran around and between its legs to put a barrier between him and his pursuers. He also made sure to hack at the giant some more where he could. A slice around the knee here, a hack at the ankle there, it all added up. He hoped it did, anyway. The shadows were still coming, but he’d made the mistake of being grabbed by one of the weird things on this floor already, and he wasn’t about to let it happen again if he could help it.

It was eerie... this feeling and these noises... Ziun wasn't a fan of this, especially considering all this was coming from him stepping off the path and into the trees. Why did everything go dark? Where did these screams of terror, pain, and despair come from? Who were making these distressful noises? Ziun wished he had the answer, but alas he didn't. Especially when he had to try and navigate through this darkness... bumping into trees... "I swear... this is getting out of hand..." he grumbled a bit. But a shift in scenery wasn't all he had to deal with... Soon Ziun felt them. Weak, wispy arms grabbing at him and attempting to drag him off. At first, it wasn't bad, but the more he walked through the trees... more and more seemed to grab him. "B-Blast it!!" he shouted, keeping on his moving on... and eventually he did pop back up down the path, no longer feeling the wispy arms. But now, before him, as he walked down the path further... a shrine and a glowing skull. "This must be it..." he huffed slightly. This whole ordeal was definitely getting to him, but nevertheless, he struck at the skull with his icicles. And once they collided against it, the skull shattered and the light flew off in the direction he came from. Perfect! What was not so perfect was now Ziun had to go back and try to get to the others again. And he had no capabilities of summoning a steed, at least in this moment. But he knew what zombies he had to deal with... and when he started back down the path, there were the three zombies he left in the web with the two that he had shambling behind him. "...right where I left you, unfortunately." he lamented, before coming up with a new plan. "Hear the verse and rhyme that I sing... Come forth and assist thy master..." Behind Ziun... appeared a Celestial giant bee this time. "Now, let's see if we can deal with this undead horde here." he said, commanding the giant bee to attack the zombies, whilst also casting the icicles straight at a few of their heads. The five zombies did end up getting taken care of... then that means this would potentially mean this would be an easier trip... right? Nevertheless, Ziun and the giant bee made their way back down the path. Down the path, there were the two zombies he left before... the two that tried to pincer maneuver him... and the one that had the icicles in its head and leg. "Alright, these two next... take care of the untouched one, I'll deal with the injured one." he commanded the bee, which simply attacked the unharmed zombie, knocking it over, while he ended up firing more and more icicles at the one zombie he had struck earlier. Two more zombies down... and Ziun was positive his memory was serving him correctly. Once he continued the path he was on, he came across the three zombies still stuck in the vines he had conjured up prior. "And this means... we can go past them." he said, dismissing the giant bee, in order to move past the vine gripped zombies. Home free now... now he'd be able to reconvene with his allies.
