If the serpent takes 30 damage or more on a single turn from a creature inside it, the serpent must succeed on a DC 19 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed creatures, which fall [prone](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#prone) in a space within 10 feet of the serpent. If the serpent dies, a swallowed creature is no longer [restrained](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#restrained) by it and can escape from the corpse by using 20 feet of movement, exiting [prone](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#prone)."
