Notice Me Elf-Pai!

It should be fine; surely the creature wouldn't grope at her if last time those efforts resulted in the amputation of a tentacle's tip, right?

Nag climbs the trees, being careful to avoid the knife- sharp edges of the branches and twigs. At one point, a twig rips her shorts a bit at the top. At another point, a twig snags through her jerkin and tears off a couple of buttons at the bottom.

She manages to get to the vine, and swings across the pond. Mid-swing, she realizes that she doesn't have enough momentum to securely make the jump. She stays grappled onto the vine, and stops. Just as she's preparing to make some preliminary swings to build momentum, a tentacle shoots out and wraps around her waist.

Nag screams as she is pulled to the water, and her lungs fill with liquid as she is pulled below.
