Tarran Smith"...How...?"
Try to remember how I exploded those ants and figure out how to do it again.
You stand around in the clearing teague made and try to go through the steps of what you did to the ants that were on you. [int, intu, A.Kin, 2, 2+1, 3 Difficulty 15 failed] You manage to avoid drooling on yourself but that's about it, if you had more time that wasn't filled with pressing catastrophe you're pretty sure you could figure it out, maybe what Jamie did too.

Taric SizierRUN! also expand the path so we don't ge burned.
You continue running, trying to force the path broader so that you can run without singeing. [A.Kinetics 3+1] (-10 Stamina) It's still abominably hot between the walls but there's enough of a space that you can run without being in pain.

Trol Granelaugh maniacally, then keep running
Laughing like the madman you are you plunge into Taric's path behind James. The ants aren't about to stay down for long, and you really have no clue how you just did that.

Dominique WakemanDom, unaware of the goings-on behind her other than a massive shockwave, doubled her speed. Whatever was going on back there, she wanted no part of it. "Come on guys, this way!" she yelled to Tarran, James, and Teague. Taric was already ahead of her, so she turned to look over her shoulder and see how the others were faring. If necessary, she would spray some more acid to try and clear them a path over.
Tarran is still standing where you left him, though it looks like whatever teague was doing leveled a lot of the ground. There aren't any ants between you and them thankfully, but... [Observation 3] it might have been a trick of the faint light but for a second you thought you saw a blob of artificial light through the heat haze. If you guys aren't on the right path to hensfield you're going to die, but chasing wisps through the woods couls get you killed even faster.

James Evans"AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!" James continued to run at maximum speed. Away from the burning fire of pain.
You manage to avoid the burning walls of pain as taric widens the path, and you rush along with the rest of the group, [Dex 2] stumbling along at an uneven pace thanks to your wounds.
