Mellinae X Phorcys - C. Head toward cave
Ugh, his head hurt...
Phorcys was groggy as he tried to raise himself upright, but the room seemed to spin. Room? Why was the floor so oily and....moving...?
He winced as a piercing call split the air. Someone was calling his name. Wait...not just someone...
"Mellinae?" He blinked his eyes open, but wasn't sure he was really awake when he did. Other Pae seemed as bewildered or shocked as he was, all in various states of collecting themselves from the fall.
That's right, they fell...
"Mellinae!" he called again, stronger this time and he caught sight of the struggling lady nearby. Of course, if they were on land...he glanced down, yes, he had his land legs...but she, she couldn't do the same. It would be up to him to help her to the nearest water source and better that than this disturbing hellscape. It was blazing hot and they would soon dry out at this rate, and--
Were those crab legs?
Clutching his head, Phorcys made his way over to kneel by Mellinae's side. "It's okay, I'm here," he reassured her, not exactly sure what to make of this new development. "Err...do you think you can move? I don't know if right 'here' is the best place to rest for long. I can help you if you need it."

Applebloom! Ranuin tried to reach out for the fauny as they fell, but to his dismay he couldn't seem to reach her. And worse, her piercing scream faded and disappeared. No, nonono!
He hit the ground hard and rolled. Ugh, the heat seemed to hit him like a wave and the floor was oily and sticking to his fur. Immediately, he was scrambling back to his paws. "Applebloom? Applebloom! Are you okay? Where are you?" No answer. And no sign of her, though there were plenty of other Pae from the party around him. Not as many as had been in the ballroom, however.
The roiling floor beneath his paws stirred him to action and he looked around the group noting the faun and fauny kin in the group, but also noting their surroundings weren't a good time to be picky about one's companions. "I don't like this. We need to move," he spoke outloud, relieved to see many Pae already up and mobile, clearing from the area except a few.

Mellinae breathed a sigh of relief when she heard a familiar voice. Clinging to the young naiad, she shoo shook her head in answer to all of his questions.
"I am fine. Confused on how to operate my left 4th leg, but I'm fine." Of course she wasn't fine. She wasn't even remotely close to fine. Grin and bear it tho. Warrior for the prince. Or at least she kept telling herself that.
" But I AM glad you are. Since you have...those" she pointed downwards toward his legs. "I have no flipping clue how to move these awful abominations coming out of me. They zig when I zag, Phorcys. Maybe you can help me? I dont know!! How do you walk when your fins dry up?"
Her rant ended on a high pitched note before she could stop it. Realizing she wa sloosing control, she quickly stopped to take a deep breath. Held it for the internal count of five and then let it go.
Panic subsiding, allbeit just barely, she looked around and witnessed others running for the cave. Pointing, she turned back to Phorcys and offered "over there! Look. There are others going too." Then she turned to look at her crab like legs and said "I can't get my...whatever these are, to cooperate. Maybe if you just help me up, and I'll try to maintain the 'up' and together we can make these horrible things go with a 'forward?' "
