"What would all of you prefer? I can get us across the acidic cloud worry free, but doing so would prevent me from doing it again should some other situation arise. Is 100 yards too far to be holding our breath?"

"Ok, hold your breath, wrap yourselves in your cloaks, and get ready to sprint." Daerith takes this creature on his word, and with a generally fleet of foot ability, Daerith expect he at least can cross the cave quickly. "Let's go..." he inhales big, taps Irgzid to lead, then darts into the cave running at a nice clip across the cave, light held up high, the other hand holding his cloak.

Abigail draws her rod of withering, and with the other hand casts a light spell upon it as she and Grask are at the rear of the group. "I will hold my breath as well. If anyone gets into trouble, for whatever reason, I will cast a bubble of clean air around your head if need be." Taking a few deep breaths, she waits for the others to go.
Number Two: "You are number six."
Number Six: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
Number Two: "Muh ha ha ha ha!"

The group gets ready, holds their breath, and dashes across the room with the burning pools of acid and the acid-filled air, Irgzid in the lead. It's not a pleasant place to be, but for a short time it should be bearable. You can't move as quickly as you'd like because the floor is slippery with small pools of acid, and a spill would definitely not be advisable.
The trip seems like it will be completely uneventful until the group is almost halfway across. That's when a huge blob of black rears up from the shadows and oozes toward the line of adventurers, apparently eager for a meal. It approaches Daerith and Grask, but the group is fast enough to respond before it can attack.

"Just run! Run! Our weapons are useless, so are any spells that don't just cause harm! Beware its acidic touch it will melt you and anything you have on you, and for Sasserine's Sake don't make any desert jokes!" Daerith is far too close for comfort to the thing, so he takes his own advice and dashes for the exit, on reaching it he spins and with his hand formed so two fingers are pointing out he speaks an arcane words of power, "Igneus manebus inflatus vetorum!" He just hopes he chamber doesn't burst into flames.

Grask does exactly as Daerith days. He takes a quick step back and runs for the exit to this cavern. Simira follows Grask.

Nodding curtly, Maclaren dashes toward the exit.
