The amethyst tower.

Valstad backed away from the head and handed her a health potion "Give this to amnesia guy, i'm off to get my staff, i'll see you back outside"

The amnesia bloke had forced himself to stand on one leg

Cerise wasn't deterred and gave him a quick hug anyway. He wasn't getting out of it that easily. But she released him quick enough and brought your man with the amnesia the potion. "Here, sweetie, drink this."

"Oh is it wine?" He asked drinking the red liquid, apparently he had retained a fondness for drinks. When his foot knitted itself back together he smiled "Even better"

"Yes, wine, of course," She gave him a stiff nod, assuming he'd be more likely to drink it if it seemed familiar to him. She grinned, and also gave him a hug. No one is safe. "I'm glad you're not dead."

Ephraim jogs over to Val "Hey Val, I have a question"

"What is it?" Valstad asked as he made his towards the throne room

"I'm glad we're not dead too" he said as he took out his dagger and drew the blade across his palm. He remembered some blood magic perhaps that would be more effective than kicking.

"Are you actually unable to jog without passing out?"

"Well come on that was like two miles" Valstad pointed out to Epraim

Cerise and amnesia man had fallen behind, and more of the metal creatures appeared blocking the dungeon exit. Amnesia man drew a sword of blood from the wound he had made "Let's try this again..." he charged in dodging stasis blasts and sliced the creatures blocking their way into bits

"It was ten yards Val" He replies with an amused smirk .

Cerise stared in thinly veiled awe as he produced a sword from his own blood, and watched as the man, who was clearly skilled in the art of fighting, cleave his way through the beasts. She dodged the occasional blast that were coming her way, which was rather easy for her as she was small and fast.

Ephraim yelps slightly as the mechanical creatures appear suddenly, but quickly leaps into the fray , with a quick incantation he casts a spell which causes a stream of blue energy tendrils to wrap up several of the creatures and crush them with a death grip.

"No it wasn't" Valstad said annoyed as it in fact was two miles exactly he turned around to look at the commotion he called to the others "Come on catch up"

"Yeah maybe I'm wrong , it was probably 6 yards" He replies mockingly as he flings the crushed creatures aside and advances.

(It was 2 miles)

"Shut up you annoying asshole" He said as he crushed the like three creatures Amnesia man had already killed Valstad gave a mock clap

(That was a very short two mile run then )

"No maybe I'm wrong perhaps it was five" He continues as he bashes the creatures through a wall , creating an opening for them to escape out of.

"Shut up and let's go" Valstad said increasingly annoyed

Malachi pulled cerise out of the newly created exit

"I kid " He replies smirking as he hops out of the new exit, they seem to have found themselves in some sort of underground cavern, but natural light can be seen coming from the other side of the caves, so there has to be an exit. Darkness is no problem because glowing mushrooms illuminate the area.

"Wow..." Cerise murmured, looking around at the cave with wide eyes. She marveled at the way the light caught in everyone's' hair and dappled on their skin. It was rather eerie, but she found it equally beautiful.

"Yeah it's pretty cool " Ephraim agrees taking the lead on the twisted rocky path.

"Shit!" amnesia man did not expect the drop and fell on his face

Cerise hurried over to him and helped him up. "Oh, dear, are you okay?"

Ephraim chuckles lightly but continues walking "Come on guys we need to speed up a bit , if those golems catch us here they'll simply fill the corridors with flame and urn us all"

Cerise helped the dude to his feet and hurried after the other two. She skipped on ahead, because she couldn't keep still for long periods of time and they were being too slow for her, twirling and skipping and dancing.

Valstad had simply left through the front door due to the fact that a single jet of fire would burn off their oxygen in the tunnel , and the door wasn't that far away. 

Malachi got up and followed them but asked "so why did we use a tunnel again  this seems like a pretty bad idea."

"Because shut up it's cooler this way , also there are guards at the front door and I don't feel like fighting all those guys" he explains as they are only a bit away from the exit.
