Mordel and Kharn move in for attacks on the creature before them. Both companions, frustratingly, miss on their respective attacks.
At the same time, Mort takes aim and tosses the flaming flask of oil at the beast. In the confusion of battle his aim is off and the flask explodes on the ground to the right of the creature. The flask hits the ground and shatters, sending the fiery oil splashing all around.
Mordel and Kharn, fortunately are spared being splattered by the flaming liquid. The great worm, however, isn't as fortunate. The bottom half of the creature is covered with the liquid and is immediately set aflame. In it's rage, the creature manages to sweep out two of its tentacles, one each in the direction of Mordel and Kharn. Mordel manages to scamper out of the way of the reaching tentacle. Kharn, although having one of the appendages brush his neck seems to suffer no ill effects, other than a nasty welt blistering the skin.
Gray and Gemlia race in and attack. Gray comes up short, but the dwarf Gemlia lands a killing blow with her mace. The worm lets out a piercing scream and then collapses to the ground. Flames shoot skyward as the body hits the earth.
The party pauses for a moment, caught up in the exhilaration of the kill. After a moment they notice that the worm isn't the only thing burning. The grass in the corral is burning also. The little five foot area where the flask hit has already doubled in size. Not to mention the area around the fallen worm is starting to spread as well...
OocOk, so the first worm has burrowed back underground. The second worm is dead and still aflame. Not to mention the grass in the corral that was hit with the oil...
