I imagine this monster lives here. Executing it for coming home doesn't seem all that fair. Still we need to make it move, so let's blow the Wind Caller to try and get it to back up. Stick together, and keep to the wall with our flame sword out and try to leave past it. Killing something like this could hurt the ecosystem later on.
You roll a 20 (required 9). Critical success‼
The giant spider raises its front legs threateningly, but before it makes a move, you pull the Wind Caller out of your sidereal bag, and blow into it as hard as you can!
The horn emits a distant howl, then out of nowhere, a devastating gust of wind blasts the beast out of the cave, and sends it flying up into the canopy to the east.
As the dust settles around the entrance, you quickly make your way outside, and climb out of the hollow before the spider has a chance to return. Apple Basket takes a moment to recover from hyperventilating.
Apple Basket: "Boy, you sure saved my hide back there. Made quick work of that monster! How'd you get so strong?"
You tell Apple Basket that you've only grown stronger thanks to all of the friends you've made along your journey.
Moonflower: "Awww!"
You can almost hear Furia Storm rolling her eyes at the back of the group.
Before long, you've retraced your steps across the oat field, and back onto the road, where you find a couple of coast guards inspecting the surveyor's tapes you've tied there earlier.
Coast scout: "Ahoy, are you the one who— oh! Is that the colt? Thank Celestia! I'll go call off the search."
Coast guard: "Aye aye. Good work! Shall I escort you four back to Amblerta, then? You can tell me about what happened on the way."
You turn to your party, and notice the mortified look on Apple Basket's face as he just realizes the trouble he's caused.
