This was getting to be boring. Though he instinctively expected some encounter of some sort soon, he knew from classes in college that that was a mistake. Just because you encountered a lot of bad luck, for example, didn't mean that you were "owed" some good luck.
He laughed a little and rubbed at his neck. "I've completely lost track of this maze. And it sounds like it changes, so it's...kind of pointless."

"From what I remember, it does change," said Cesc. "My guess would be to just keep going -- if we hit a dead end, at leas we know there are plenty of options. Maybe... going clockwise?"
He turned toward the first corresponding right, heading down that direction.

And almost instantly, he was met with a dead end, backtracking quickly before the others followed. The hedge seemed to be laughing at them, getting them more and more lost.
"Nevermind on that one," the stag said with a laugh. "Next one, then."

Ian had only taken a step or two down the path Cesc chose before the Sigel turned around, and he laughed as well. "This is kind of ridiculous..." If he was actually worried about surviving, he might be less amused, but knowing that this didn't hold any real consequences was a pacifier.

"I wonder if it really hurts if you 'die' in here, anyway." Justin poked his hand into the hedge. He drew it back with a curse as a thorn found his thumb.

Ian continued to laugh softly. "Well dying is dying, even if it's not for real, right?" He smiled at Justin as they turned a corner in the maze. "But...maybe it's like a dream, you know--" He stopped, staring into the fog as it went quiet. Something was there.

Stop.
You hear a rustle in the vines.
Something hears you speaking from beyond the veil of fog. . . .

. . .You start feeling... a little hot. Humid, even. What's this...?
Heat rises from beneath your feet, and the ground rumbles. You suspect it may crack with every movement, but instead, it begins seeping with what looks like magma and fire.
Then, through the lava, you hear it: a loud, echoing groan as a giant of soil and fire drags itself into the foray. It burns any vine near it and crackles with the sound of flame, but like its bottom half is trapped in the inferno, it drags itself and the earth with it toward you.
(You hear a someone cackling in the distance.)

1. Roll 1D20 to attack on the monster! Once you roll, you must wait for your other teammates to attack AND the monster to attack before rolling again! 2. After everyone has attacked, The monster will generate RNG 1-4 to determine its target! 3. This monster will generate RNG1-25 damage at its selected target! 4. Rinse and repeat until the monster is dead! 5. If something goes wrong and your team member 'dies,' they are booted from the maze-- but something tells you that there's a benevolent spirit watching you traverse this labyrinth...
GO, GO, GO! ATTACK! . . .

Cesc was close to answering Ian's ponderings when the ground rumbled again in a familiar way. He pulled his scimitar up at the ready, snorting. "Again? Really?"
He pushed forward, trying for the heel again.

It was another giant. Justin decided he really, really hate giants. He ran forward and swung his bat at the back of one knee, hoping to bring it down a bit.

Ian just stared, discouraged, at the looming figure emerging from the ground. Another giant? Cesc seemed to be feeling along the same lines, and Ian managed a soft snort as he readied his poker.
With a wild swing he lashed at the giant's crawling arms with the iron stick.

. . . Aiming at the knees seems to weaken the giant consdierably. Unlike its more earthern cousin, however, this one sounds pained, and falls immediately. With its arms, it drags itself against the floor and attempts to swipe at any and all near.

Justin stayed near the giant's legs, trying to thump the big thing a new kneecap here and there. The thud of his baseball bat against molten flesh was disgusting and his stomach rolled. Suddenly, he remembered something.
"Did anyone else hear-" thud. -some kinda weird laughter when the giant appeared?"
