Marcus remains unconscious, but the goo covering him finally breaks off.
Cyrius ascends 15 feet up the spikes.
Prost carefully administers a cure light wounds potion to Marcus [Marcus is healed 8 hp and now conscious again]. Prost also finds himself free of the tanglefoot bag.
After only the briefest of respites, Tex again finds himself covered in tanglefoot goo. This time, though, he manages to avoid becoming firmly stuck to the wall. Thus, although slowed by the gunk, he begins to climb up the wall, making it 5 feet toward the top.
Worrell continues to climb the spikes driven into the cavern wall, manages to get another 10 feet higher on the wall.
Lola moves closer to the wall, but, inexplicably, does nothing else.
Round 8 Begins
Annoyed that Tex is finally escaping, Grimlock Archer 1 chooses to target him. Although Tex is occupied with climbing, the archer hits only once [5 hp damage]
Seeing how quickly Cyrius is ascending the wall, Grimlock Archer 2 tosses a tanglefoot bag at him. Rather unbelievably, he misses.
