QM Note:

And that, my friends, is what happens when a Battle Frenzy follows a Bomb XX.

I hate you, posades.

I knew that would happen, at some point or another, but that was just awesome. Also, don't forget my Witch's Talisman, Loren should be Badly Posioned and have 918 health as a result.

Atramor stumbles as half of his face is splattered by the mess of blood Xander causes, ravaging every single Pikemen. Ratsbane swings past Loren, but some of the venom flies off the blade, hitting the Rogue Lion leader square in his eye, causing him to glare one-eyed at the witch.

"...That was....surprisingly anti-climactic. Huh....Well, ya'll can pile on these bastards, I'm gonna help Cronk and Arthur stamp out those Chaos Beasts."

He dashes east, sliding quite quickly as a result of the gore and stretching puddles of blood on the ground.

QM Note:

Got it.

[Chromeknight]

Nerwen sang.

She sang for pure joy.

The balance of the world was being restored.

Chaos was being beaten back. Falling prey to its own chaotic drive.

Withering under the light of civilization. Of unity and order.

Nerwen sang and the healing power of her gods spilled out, touching all the heroes in the corridor. Lifting their spirits and easing their hurts.

Although strong enemies remained, the heroes were no longer out numbered. No longer on the back foot.

It was, as one of her old teachers said, the turning of the tide.

Thinking now of the bigger picture she moved closer to the battlemage, who was clearly enjoying the rolling moil of combat.

Nyx, will you hand me you phoenix essence? I will go and get Thothwick and Galen. I do not feel right about leaving them. I would get Flavius too but we only have limited essences.

They've sat out for a lot, I wouldn't want them to miss all the fun...

[Dharkan]

OOC: Can that elite guard die to natural causes or something, heart attack and stuff, you know :P I'm bored and alone :D

"Attacking Heavy Elite Guard C from front row."

[Tanma]

IC: "Tension is rising, gravity hurts. Everything's falling apart."

De'kra dived beneath a Pikeman, rolling through his attack. As the echo moved to swipe the foe, he bore witness to Xander, pounding the foe into a mangled mess. The echo deeper his head in thanks, before running to aid elsewhere in the fight.

"Choosing the right side, Choosing our faith,"

As the echo slide through the battlefield, a pike thrust at him. The echo ticked into a ball and spun beneath the attack, narrowly avoiding the strike. As he turned to face the opponent, a bolt flew through the foe's back. De'kra turned to spot Denerii, who was already taking to the air.

"Choosing is what we must do. Everyone is counting on you."

De'kra watched with shock and relief as Xander whipped through the horde, his club an extension of his whirling body. Foes flew left and right, just as Nerwen began to sing her song of healing across the battle. In a mere second, the tide of battle had completely shifted.

"For freedom we rise. Learn to fly, reach the sky, legend will carry you thousands of miles. Take a stand, hold the land, make sure that everyone's ready to win. Find the speed, all you need. Team up for battle. We fly...fly..."

De'kra weaves through the crushed wave as hero upon heroe struck back, their bodies flying upon the puddle of foes like an avalanche. And with a great leap, De'kra flew with them, piercing deep into Lucan. As the heroes stepped back, only the enemy leaders remained, broken and beaten. The war was not over, but the sense of doom had left De'kra. This was not like the death of Constance, nor the fall of Metru-Nui. No, this was a battle. "We fly," he echoed, as he turned his attention to the remaining foes.

"Heroes who still possess Phoenix Essences," clicked De'kra, "see if you can make it past foes. Heroica Heoes tend to recover from battle, but I not sure about Phil or Flavius. They might die after this battle. So please, see if you can heal them, while rest of we take out these warriors."

As hope sprung eternal, the echo turned to attack Sir Loren from the back row. As De'kra flipped Kapura back and forth in his hands, he heard the first voice comment with a calm good natured tone:

"Don't get too cocky."

Edited August 12, 2012 by Tanma

[Pandora]

Nyx grins widely as Xander unleashes his barbaric force, and jumps up and down a claps a little as blood and sinew spray around the room. She's so happy she could sing. But doesn't. Because everyone else already is.

Nyx, will you hand me you phoenix essence? I will go and get Thothwick and Galen. I do not feel right about leaving them. I would get Flavius too but we only have limited essences.

They've sat out for a lot, I wouldn't want them to miss all the fun...

"Sweet Nerwen, I couldn't agree with you more. They are both people who should be here, and who have worked hard for us all to get this far in this battle. Edgar, keep XX busy while I exchange my Phoenix Essence with Nerwen."

"Tension is rising, gravity hurts. Everything's falling apart."

"Choosing the right side, Choosing our faith,"

"Choosing is what we must do. Everyone is counting on you."

"For freedom we rise. Learn to fly, reach the sky, legend will carry you thousands of miles. Take a stand, hold the land, make sure that everyone's ready to win. Find the speed, all you need. Team up for battle. We fly...fly..."

"Is the next line 'whoaa-aooo, we're halfway there, whoaa-aooo, we're living on a prayer'? I rather liked that song when the travelling minstrels played it back in Eubric; I was whistling it for weeks."

[Chromeknight]

Nerwen accepts the pheonix essence from Nyx.

I think it is a song from his homeland.

Denarii listened with head cocked.

You sing a pretty song hatchling. You're a strange one, definitely! But good with the blade.

she draws her bow, aiming at Sir Lamorak from the back row.

Hearing Isabella's plaintive lament Nerwen sends a thought to her

You are a rogue, you can flee to the south corridor with everyone else. The guard will either follow you and others can also target him, or will flee, which is of no consequence.

Edited August 12, 2012 by Chromeknight

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Alexandre attacks Lord Lucan, back row. Knyghton attacks Lord Lucan. Front row.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Excellent work, friends! Now Cronk and Arthur only have to hold off Beasts until help arrives.

Fear not, Miss Ella, this ordeal almost at an end.

Cronk will bash Chaos Beast A twice more from front row.

[Rumble Strike]

Tarn claps Xander on the back after his Frenzy. "You do us all proud, a true warrior of Heroica!"

He then readies Lion's Heart and attacks Lord Lucan from the front row.

Edited August 12, 2012 by Rumble Strike

[posades]

Xander breathed heavily; something had gotten ahold of him, like a primordial being within his soul. There were no longer foes to defeat, only prey. He sensed a deeper connection to his ancestral past -- a lone hunter, seeking out vengeance. The feeling was not unwelcome, though Xander pushed these intense images from his mind long enough to aim an attack on Sir Lamorak from the front row.

"Thank you friends, but it has been a team effort and I would not have been in this position if it wasn't for you all," Xander says as he grips his club even more firmly. After the battle, he thought to himself, he would have to collect his thoughts and self reflect on his journey thus far and what the future held.

[Waterbrick Down]

Skrall hammered his greatsword into the shield of the knight as he fell back from his onslaught. Skrall took a moment to pause as he surveyed the battle field. Nerwens restoring song still drifted across the hot air, as Xander recovered from his show of ferocity. "Keep at 'em, don't let 'em slip past ya. Luke hold yer ground for the moment and make sure everyone remains standin'."

OOC: I can't believe he had 3 hp left... :D

Attacking Heavy Elite Guard C from front row. hopefully for once and all this time :D

[CMP]

Atramor nods sharply to both Cronk, Arthur, and William's motionless body, charging in towards Chaos Beast A from the front row with Ratsbane.

"Hey, mates. Chaos Bastards givin' ya' trouble? These look tougher than the one I fought before, but they look just as demented anyway..."

[Waterbrick Down]

Skrall swung the greatsword around to clear a space in front of him as he withdrew his Hunter's Crossbow from its holster and fired off a shot at Sir Lamorak from the back row.

"Ms. Isabella, feel free to join us in the hall, that guard is going to fall from his wounds pretty soon anyways and yer pheonix essence may still come in handy. Luke go ahead and prepare to heal Ms. Isabella from the back row if she comes through here."

IC: "Creatures keep coming, reaching within."

De'kra leapt forward, diving past the many clashing blades of the fighters.

"Stealthily they climb from the dark. Yeah, yeah."

The echo darted through the many combatants, even as Tarn began to slam his way through the leaders. The echo gave a quick nod at the barbarian as he passed by, a wordless appreciation. Now De'kra was situated right behind his target.

"Searching for wisdom, searching for truth. Show us the things you can do."

De'kra lunged forward, thrusting Kapura into Loren's neck. The blade unleashed a burst of flame as it made contact with the knight, causing embers to dance. Even as the blade made contact, the echo twisted his legs against Loren,s chest piece. Then with a mighty push he threw himself backwards, away from the foe.

"Maybe it's all up to you."

As De'kra landed back with the rest of his allies, he looked them over. The heroes might not have been as successful this round, but they still stood strong and ready for further combat. The echo clicked, "Great work heroes we are push them back. Nerwen, good luck in revive others. I worry about Flavius, but I can understand not heal him, since time is limit. Besides, one more Phoenix Essence is available? In meantime, heroes need powerful fighter to take on Loren. I only dealt good damage because of critical hit, heroes need fighter whose lowest hits are strong to beat his defenses."

As he finished speaking De'kra returned to the back row, and readied to target Lamorak. The echo held Kapura steady, ready to drive the dagger at the foe.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Welcome friend Atramor. There still plenty of evil for everyone to bash. Help Atramor's self.

Cronk's angel went bye-bye. Cronk and friends will have make do without angel's protection for now.

Cronk will bash Chaos Beast A twice from front row. Beast should fall this turn. Hopefully Ella can flee to safety while friends finish off remaining beasts.

[CMP]

"Hah, good to be bashin' evil at your side again. We should totally do that thing where you catapult me into the air on your shield again. That was badass."

[Dharkan]

OOC: Well if that's the case, I mean really going to fall because of poison or something, then I'm changing my move by moving to you guys.

[Brickdoctor]

OOC: Well if that's the case, I mean really going to fall because of poison or something, then I'm changing my move by moving to you guys.

QM Note:

If you move instead, the guard will drop to 2 HP, but he'll still follow you to the South Corridor.

[Dharkan]

OOC: I don't want to get free hits. I'll finish him off first.

[Chromeknight]

OOC: I don't want to get free hits. I'll finish him off first.

Thanks to Vipera's link, even some of the heroes' thoughts were broadcast. Nerwen responded to the young rogue's worries.

You are a rogue. You should be able to flee and not take a hit.

As she said this she moved rooms herself.

Nerwen moves north toward the throne room.

Denarii was keen to take advantage of the higher ceiling here.

She took aim at Sir Lamorak from the back row with her bow.
