>>Get the big crabmonster to break down those pillars
Hmm, that sounds good in theory, but maybe you should go for something a little more… Adventurous…
Climb the pillar with the planks and tear down the roof by pulling one of those ropes!
Aha! That’s more like it! The needlessly overcomplicated and treacherous path is the true path of the Adventurer, after all…!
…But before you can make a daring dash for the unstable support pillar, you are faced with the source that skittering noise behind you! A giant crab blocks your path, and many more appear from the shadows, each one threatening you with their pinchy pincers!
You panic, giant monster crab behind you, giant regular crab in front.. You don’t have time to deal with all of this at once!
Suddenly and without warning, an airborne Goblin smashes headfirst into the giant crab, knocking it over and frightening the others surrounding you. Where the heck did…
>>where’s eik why is he being so useless
Oh! Well that answers both your questions. Eik is bravely fighting off the adorably ineffective Goblin hordes and lobbing them down into the pit in order to incapacitate your attackers with impeccable aim and force!
With your nigh-terminal case of crabs cleared up for the time being, you ascend the wonky stone spire, your climb eased by the planks embedded in it at random intervals. If adrenaline wasn’t coursing through your body right now you would probably be worried about climbing this shaky thing with a hefty Goblin strapped to your back, but you have a fight to finish!
By the time the creature realises what you’re up to, you’ve already reached the top! The rope dangles dangerously far away from you, but…
…With a mighty leap, and praying that whichever Norse deity is in charge of gravity is on your side, you launch yourself off of the pillar!
And huzzah!! Your borderline suicidal tactic has worked! You’ve made it to the rope, and give the crabmonster a cocky grin. Your weight will pull this rope free, and you’ll swing over to another pillar like the heroic adventurer you are as the ceiling crushes your opponent!
Oh dear. It seems your plan has not gone quite as you imagined. The rope snaps as expected, but it´s swinging you back in the direction you came from! You are taken by surprise, unable to recover from your sudden change in trajectory. At the very least you seem to have destabilized the ceiling, as small chunks of debris start raining down all around you.
You hang onto the rope for dear life as it sends you sailing dangerously close to the ground…
…And onto the waiting shoulders of the crabmonster.
Oooh boy.
