Can we use fire or acid to melt bottles closed?
You don't have any acid. Fire could work, but your access to fire is Willis' high-powered explosion spells. Not exactly the best for controllably melting the glass. You could try using a campfire, but it wouldn't be the easiest thing to do.. there'd be a chance of either destroying the mist or letting it go. You had some bombs, but nope, those seem to have been left with Uncle and Alice.
..Still, melting it a bit around the stone seems somewhat more viable. Maybe it'll work? Assuming the heat just doesn't kill the mist in itself.
Maybe you can ask Uncle to drop something to you?
(Attempt to destroy the mist votes are 2-1.)
Willis hits the mist with another spell. Sessha throws more daggers. Trence reverts, but he doesn't have any ranged attacks. Willis goes to using his bow, and the much ignored frost arrows actually seem to do something!
Overall, the mist seems immune or virtually immune to physical damage, but elemental damage seems to hurt it. Sessha's poison knives do seem to do something, but it isn't as effective as you would expect stacking infinite poison on one creature would be. All the while, the mist recedes, recedes more, and roils and screeches.
After a few minutes of firing frost arrows into the thing, the diminished mist lurches and starts heading towards you, rapidly climbing the cave wall. You have a moment to do something before the encounter starts.
Due to the nature of the area, Running is not possible.Trence Colunstin
