Safe

With the keys, you rush over to Mila and open her cage, and see that the arcane cuffs that have her hand bound behind her back are syphoning both her magic and life.

You’ve been following your instincts all day today, and they haven’t done you wrong, so why doubt them now, right? Following your yout gut, you throw the cage door keys as far as you can past the ledge, falling down to god knows where in the cave. You then cast Locate Object to find the nearest key. You get a ping almost instantly. You find a key along with some gold and gemstones in a strongbox hidden inside a false rock by the alcove where Klarg slept.

The key worked. As soon as you get them off her hands, you use your last ounce of energy to cast a healing spell to Cure Wounds as you sit on the ground next to her and bring her head up onto your lap.

Her eyes shot open, and as she took a big gasp of air. Her hands were feeling your face, checking to see if you were real or just a figment of her imagination. When she convinced herself that you were not a figment of her imagination, she threw her arms around your neck, hugging you tight, and started sobbing.

After some time, and the emotions have settled down, the two of you, with all the bedrolls you can find around here, have built yourselves a somewhat soft and comfortable staging area hidden in a corner behind some large towers of stalagmites. Ready to hunker down and get a long rest here tonight before heading back, since both of you are completely out of magic. and energy, and agree that it would not be a good idea to return to town in such a state. The last thing you saw before falling asleep was the beautiful purple galaxies that twinkled in Mila’s eyes.
