[They're far up that a drop from this height head-first could cause injury. Raine scowls at him for moving; they're stuck together for the moment and Raine needs a moment to right themself before they can unravel the magic holding them there.]
You're young and you have enough magical energy to hurt me with my own innate element. That's pretty amazing. Now stop moving so I don't drop us on our heads while I unravel the spell.
[Pressed so close to each other right now, Raine is careful as they start to touch some of the markings, and transform a finger in order to drag that short claw shallowly through the tree's bark to sever the magic in that spot. There's a jolt of energy as part of the spell releases, partially.]
This particular trap usually self-releases in an hour, but I'm not sure I want to stick with you for that long.
And I don't manually release it often. So, let's see if my memory serves me correctly. Worst case scenario, we immolate - just kidding.
[They cut another line of magic, and Raine holds onto Hubert just in case as they fall right-side-up again.]
Okay, now snapping our necks and-or braining ourselves in the muck is out.
Oh yeah. Let me know if you start feeling weird. My bite can make people horny if I secrete too much anti-coagulant into the wound. Sure you'd rather keep bleeding longer than you have to?
