**Understood...never intended for it to happen**
*Suddenly, a layered voice rings out, twelve times over...Kero's eyes are now steel grey*
By the power of all the elements...by the magic inherent in my blood...and by the shared bond of parent to child, I hereby declare you banished from this realm, Bezernia. Should you hound me or Talesian again, I will not hesitate to summon my retainers to enforce my decree. This is my true offer, Bezernia...take it or leave it.

Bezernia bows with a flourish. "I shall take my leave then... and let you two suffer the consequences without me. Bye, luv.... guess I won't be seeing you for some time... banishment aside... It's going to be rough getting back to here from where he's sending me...." As he speaks he begins to fade, then disappears altogether.
"From where he's sending you... what... wait... Bez!" cries Tam worriedly. He turns to Kerobian and looks about ready to cry. "Kero... what have ye done?"

*Kero shakes his head*
Nothing. He banished himself. That was no empty threat I made, but I did not banish him. He seems to believe that I have consigned him to the abyssal realms. I have not. Call out to him, if you so desire...he can still heed your call. I merely wove a spell to keep him from answering to our youngest's call. As keeper of the spellweave, I can do that.

A single black rose floats down gently from the air above Tam's head, landing in his hands with feathered lightness. About it's stem is a note, written on a scrap of paper. "Have fun kiddies, playing yer games... I have bigger fish to fry and better things to do. Find someone else to do yer dirty work. Ta ta for now...."
Tam lifts the rose to his nose and sighs. "I think I better hold off on calling to him, he sounds a little pissed."

*Kero...no...Luciel....shrugs*
I could care less...sorry, Tam....but there's been a problem...that's what's been causing the dreams and moodiness...the spellweave has attached itself to us twelve in its hunger...can you give Kero back a couple of his powers...at least the power of absorption? We're like flies in a web here...and though we're not dying...it is rather uncomfortable....my nose itches...and Number V's getting a cramp in his left hip....and Number IX's a** is a**-leep!

"Can it be done without him knowing it... or rather without him knowing the true extent of it's strength? And how can I help ye here, that weave is of yer making not mine. I allowed you guys to set it up... can't ye fine tune it on yer own... Ye tore down what I sat in place... remember, saying it was too restrictive." says Tam softly, walking over to where the Lion stood.

Get in here and pull us out of this web!

Tam sighs, "Let's get upstairs then... ye put him under and I'll dream weave my way in. But I'm not going to try doing that out here.. it's cold and this ground is not going to make a comfy place to put me head..." says Tam opening the door for the lion and following him inside.

Are you ready, Talesian?

Tam comes up the stairs in the conventional manner, sighing. "Show off... " he grumbles with a frown. Then he lies down next to the cat and resting a hand on his head, closes his eyes. "Ready, Look for me, I'm coming in..." Concentrating on the spell weave, he wills himself before it, seeing.....

*The eldritch veil has formed into a silken cocoon, and Twelve creatures are stuck on it, in various uncomfortable positions*

Trying hard not to laugh and failing miserably, Tam goes to the dragon first and pulls with all his might. With a sickening sucking sound, Luciel slowly pulls free and between them they begin to pry the others free as well. One or two, though are so well integrated into the cocoon that Tam cannot for the life of him see how they can be freed. He begins t count heads, wondering who is missing.

*It's numbers VII and XII who are really stuck...the tip of VII's nose can be seen, while all that is visible of Twelve is a bit of a tentacle*

Tam turns to Luciel. "Major problem... and I don't know how to address it. XII's been controlling things, keeping an eye on Kero and things locked away... that why he's so enmeshed in this thing. But why VII? What's his connection?"

*Luciel chuckles*
VII is XII's closest friend.
