I wrap the white, soft and gentle fabric tighter around my body, to keep me warm. As it was the only thing you had, and the only thing you might get for warmth.
Using the new shapeshifting ability I used to get a few feet from the ground of the tower. I kept using the top and ladders to get further up. Until I reached a landing that was held up by chains. It was more sturdy than you thought it would be. You could tell that you had made progress up the tower still, you had a long way to go.

You could also see HUGE spider webs in front of you. What could have made those spider webs!? And why were they so enormous? In my confusion, I didn't seem to hear the crawling that surrounds me.

Barachiel seems to tap me. To indicate that there is something that I have missed. I tried to make out the dark shadow creature in the dark, but it was hard to make out what it was. I and Barachiel stared at this beast before us.

Thunk!
There it is, a giant spider with a red strip.
"Finally made it! Welcome to my home, say hello children."
Hundreds of little red eyes can be seen surrounding me and Barachiel. Now it begins!
Few human-sized spiders attack us. Using my pink petals to distract them Barachiel attacks them with lighting spears. We continued to do this until the huge half-human, a half spider was the only thing standing.

This made her back off as Barachiel made three large spears to attack this arachnid.

It hit her back and stomach, causing a lot of pain for her. We used this to attack her again. Barachiel made a huge thunderbolt and priced it on her neck, but it didn't work! It hurt her and slowed her down but that's all. So I ran over to Barachiel who was a few meters ahead of me, I grabbed his right hand and we both attacked and made a white spear with a pink, translucent shield on the tip of the spear. This time she didn't get up or move anymore. She was dead.

Now we were stuck on this platform if we could find a way to get off it. After a while, Barachiel flew up to the next platform, without me! He just left me that jerk!
