Adri smashed the spider in its fangs with her shield. She felt them sliding around on the metal and she hoped what ever venom it had wasn't corrosive. The creature howled at her and tried to move to her right. She brandished the sword and lit up the blade to keep it more to her front. She was hoping Peter was getting an angle on it, but she could see he had tripped and ended up entangled in some webbing and was flailing like an idiot. She sighed knowing this was going to come down to her. The spider rushed her shield now trying to up and over her to trap her underneath its weight. She went with the creature letting it push her down and then brought her sword up at the time impaling the creature and dropping its guts down upon her. The smell was a foul ichor that almost made her vomit. She pushed the creature in its death throes off her shield and looked for Peter who had seemingly freed himself from the webs only to be entangled by more of the spiders brought by his flailing.
"Seriously Peter?" They were smaller than the creature she'd slain, but Peter was still entangled partially in the web and he was having trouble swinging his hammer in the tighter quarters, she saw blood on his torso, so one of the creatures had obviously bitten him.
"I hope they're not poisonous." Somewhere in the universe Trezlan felt a pang of anger and he did not know why.
"Can't you burn things? Burn some things!" Adri was kind of upset, sure it been a while since they'd use the fire god's power, but Peter was definitely slacking in his application of it.
"Right sorry, sorry I should have..." One of the spiders was about to sink its fangs into Peter's neck and Adri was not close enough to stop it.
"PETER KILL THE GODS DAMNED SPIDERS!" Sensing her importance placed on killing things, Peter extended a ring of fire around himself that vaporized the spiders, and their webs and came close to burning Adri's face. The fire spread around the room quite well and burned most of the webbing down. Adri was impressed.
"So that's that right, got all the spiders?" Peter used some of his power on his wound and looked to seal it off.
"Yeah no, whatever grabbed at me had hands Peter, we have to go deeper."
"You're just a bad person Adri." Adri let that go, she could see where the cave went deeper in, and from noise coming that way, whatever lived there, now was aware someone was coming. She readied her sword and told Peter to do the same. They were about to have more friends.
