I missed the part about not using the shortbow, sorry.

The feeder pipes are too far away for a running jump (and certainly a standing jump) unless you have a levitate spell. Most are also too slick to be a viable handhold.

Keep in mind that the flash-flower provides a brief burst of light.

Next post will give the effects of Castille's action, then you can post what Kaspar wants to do.
