CMP Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 OOC: Melvin shouldn't have acted after all Shades were defeated, thus should not have been KO'd. Sorry, will edit. This is why we refer to enemies by their real names. Selenrae turned into a husk, not a shade.
Emjajoas Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) Avina uses her Phoenix Essence on Em (or does as suggested). Em uses a Grand Potion on The Scar (or does as suggested). Edited July 11, 2014 by emjajoas
Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 "Demon!" I command, using all the mind power I can and tugging at the chain so that hopefully it will add something. "Hand me that Sword...you know the one I'm talking about. Give to me now that I can smite this darkness back to hell where it comes from."
Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 "Actually, forget about the sword!" I mumble, although it would have been nice to hold it. I draw the last remaining Phoenix Incense from my cart and throw it into the air. "Em, time to get up!" I look on as the Husk devours the shades around it. "All I can say is thank God we don't have these things running around the city." I chuckle nervously before adding, "I half suspect that soon it will devour itself if we don't kill it first." I then attack the Doom Husk with the almighty Steak from the Front Row. "Let's see what exactly you're made of, demon!"
joeshmoe554 Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) OOC: Changing Avina's action since Pretzel used a Phoenix Incense Avina tries to use a Phoenix Essence on Em, but in the commotion misses her target horribly Accidentally hitting U'Reeka with the Essence of Phoenix Jeaux suddenly startles awake, like someone had merely flipped a switch delivering consciousness to him once again. He quickly gets to his feat and takes a moment to survey the current situation. He can see the man in the Top Hat and mask relentlessly attacking the creature before them, Delivering 2 swift attacks from the front row. Jeaux pulled out the newly acquired diamond from his briefcase, aiming a spell at their new enemy from the back row EDIT: Altered actions since I had forgotten about Veni, Vidi, Vici Edited July 12, 2014 by joeshmoe554
Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Wait, The Scar's Veni, Vidi, Vici is protecting us this coming round, right? Edited July 12, 2014 by Palathadric

The abomination stumbles backwards, in its final form, looking around for some desperate sign of hope in the party. It fails. "VERY...very....well. We will.....depart. There is nothing left for...me. All that I knew is DESTROYED." The bits of ceiling floating in place above them fell. The husk let itself be exposed to the light of the moon emanating from the strange orb above them. Slowly, it melted away,, its form withering into wisps of shadow that dissipated immediately. Soon enough, it was gone. At last, all trace of the shades had been eradicated from the world.

Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 "Victory!" I sigh, breathing freely. It felt so good...too good. "At last peace is restored to Zylstra again."
CMP Posted July 12, 2014 Author Posted July 12, 2014 "Victory!" I sigh, breathing freely. It felt so good...too good. "At last peace is restored to Zylstra again." "Indeed. And our mission is completed. Thank you for your cooperation, heroes..." Avina dug around in her cloak briefly...and pulled out four glowing red vials, handing one to each hero. "...and your trust, however temporary and grudging it may have been." Crimson Haze - (Causes a weapon to deal the poisoned by 7 and cursed effects permanently)
Emjajoas Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Em staggers to his feet, knees shaking, using his shield to support himself. "That... explosion hurt... a little..." he breathes, chest heaving. After a few moments of wobbling, he regains his balance. With a sigh, he stretches his shoulders and neck. "Left me a little stiff," he jests, wincing as his neck cracked. He nods in thanks as Avina hands him the Crimson Haze. "Soryx, I believe we are finished. Care to return my Frost Helm?" Rummaging in his bag, Em removes the Phoenix Incense and hands it to Pretzel. "I believe this was yours?" Edited July 12, 2014 by emjajoas
Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Rummaging in his bag, Em removes the Phoenix Incense and hands it to Pretzel. "I believe this was yours?" "You are correct," I say, collecting the Incense. "Good work, Em, if that really is your name, you took more than one hit on that shield of yours."
Emjajoas Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 "Mortimer is a mouthful," Em replies. He knocks on his shield proudly. "She took the hits well, though. I'm honestly surprised I'm still standing."
CMP Posted July 12, 2014 Author Posted July 12, 2014 "Mortimer is a mouthful," Em replies. He knocks on his shield proudly. "She took the hits well, though. I'm honestly surprised I'm still standing." "Indeed. The Crown respects anyone willing to fall for their cause."
Emjajoas Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 "Indeed. The Crown respects anyone willing to fall for their cause." "As do I. You fought well," he nods, glancing around. He turns to the civilians upon noticing them, as though he had forgotten they had been there. "Are you all okay? Should we fetch Posco?"
Palathadric Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 I collect my other items: Magic Viper Skin Amethyst Shovel Pickaxe 2 Phoenix Incenses (Melvin and Em) I then hand Hybros his 2 Health Cores back. "As do I. You fought well," he nods, glancing around. He turns to the civilians upon noticing them, as though he had forgotten they had been there. "Are you all okay? Should we fetch Posco?" "Let us, indeed. He will be pleased with the work I am sure. 'Avina,' if that is your name, you fought well as did the other fellow in the top-hat. May your path lead you in the direction of light instead of darkness. I suggest you take your leave of us now that your mission has been accomplished successfully."
JimBee Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 "Demon!" I command, using all the mind power I can and tugging at the chain so that hopefully it will add something. "Hand me that Sword...you know the one I'm talking about. Give to me now that I can smite this darkness back to hell where it comes from." "I do not think you will want the end of the sword I would give you, eheh..." Hybros smirks. He sheathes his weapons as the battle concludes, grateful the struggle was over. He removed the Soul Link Chain immediately, feeling both waves of relief and guilt for slaying the Shades. They were a threat, yes, but the weight of judging an entire species, and the consequences it would have on his own people... he would have to deal with for the rest of his days. He accepted the Crimson Haze from Avina, but did not look her in the... mask. "I suppose you dug here from the surface, and that is the only way out now?" Hybros does a quick scan of the room to see if there was anything of use, and tries to determine if the forge could still work. "Ehehm, I would also like those items back. Soryx, the Dual Axes, although powerful in your hands, have their place with me for now. Unless you were to offer a price for them...? Heheh..." He also checks his inventory and collects: - A Phoenix Essence, five Grand Potions and three Health Cores from Jeaux - His shovel, four Potions, four Grand Potions, and five Health Cores from Wally - Two Health Cores from Pretzel
Palathadric Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I too remove the Soul Link Chain and re-apply the Ethereal Cloak. It felt good to be in something clean. I decide to dirty myself by trying to dig with my Magic Shovel again. He accepted the Crimson Haze from Avina, but did not look her in the... mask. "I suppose you dug here from the surface, and that is the only way out now?" "Yes, I myself wonder this."
CMP Posted July 13, 2014 Author Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) He turns to the civilians upon noticing them, as though he had forgotten they had been there. "Are you all okay? Should we fetch Posco?" Wally was crouched by the dead form of his beloved mentor, in silent mourning. Erveka seemed to be comforting him to the best of her ability. "Let us, indeed. He will be pleased with the work I am sure. 'Avina,' if that is your name, you fought well as did the other fellow in the top-hat. May your path lead you in the direction of light instead of darkness. I suggest you take your leave of us now that your mission has been accomplished successfully." "Indeed. We'll be off now, I think." He accepted the Crimson Haze from Avina, but did not look her in the... mask. "I suppose you dug here from the surface, and that is the only way out now?" Hybros does a quick scan of the room to see if there was anything of use, and tries to determine if the forge could still work. "Ehehm, I would also like those items back. Soryx, the Dual Axes, although powerful in your hands, have their place with me for now. Unless you were to offer a price for them...? Heheh..." "Yes. You can use this tunnel to leave. We started digging just off the road to Bric'lin. You can exit through here, then loop back into the gnome city from above. There was nothing left of interest in the room after the heroes had looted their enemies. The forge was considerably cold despite the flames that adorned it while Selenrae was alive.

Emjajoas Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Em nods to Avina and the Scar with a small wave, then frowns at Wally. He remains quiet for a time. "Would you like us to take the body to your city for a proper funeral? I'm unaware of your customs, but..."
JimBee Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 "All I can offer is the gold I have on my person. I maintain few possessions." Hybros shrugs. "Perhaps if we meet again you will have more gold, eheh." While Pretzel is digging, Hybros quickly peeks in the Monk's cart. He should have known better than to touch unknown items from the Paladin by now, but he felt that the monk deserved to have something stolen for putting those cursed chains on him for a second time. He snatches a pickax and stows it. He turns to Melvin, and holds out a sheet of written music, the Minuet of the Forest. "You fought bravely, Melvin, and were a big help to us, hehe... I have no use for this song, but perhaps you can learn it and sing for your crew mates aboard your ship or cousin in Zylstra. Maybe I will meet you in either place soon enough..." Finally, Hybros approaches Wally, putting on the Epaulettes just in case. "Come on, Wally. I understand you and the Doctor were... close, but he made his decision. I... I am sorry it had to turn out this way, but death is a part of life that... that we will have to accept." He gingerly pats the gnome on the shoulder, an awkward attempt to comfort his friend.

OOC: Was going through the loot for the quest and realized none of the loot from Jeaux's private encounter was actually added to Jeaux and Soryx's inventory, so I figure I'll just re-distribute it now if there is no objection Em - 20 Gold, Mead, Smelling Salts Hybros - 20 Gold, Nostrum Pretzel - 40 Gold, Phoenix Essence Jeaux - 20 Gold "Indeed. And our mission is completed. Thank you for your cooperation, heroes..." Jeaux placed the Crimson Haze in his briefcase and shut the latch. "We were simply completing our mission. That it aligned with your goals was a coincidence, and you should not mistake it for cooperation. From everything you have said so far, I estimate you are as great a threat to this world as the shades we just dispatched, and there is a high probability we will be sent to stop you at some point in the future. I can assure you, I will pursue that mission with the same dedication as I have shown here." Jeaux left the two faceless bigots to go speak with Wally, "I am sorry that the Doctor is dead. From what little I saw of him, he seemed like a man interested in making the world a better place, and I would like it if you would continue to follow in his footsteps."

CMP Posted July 13, 2014 Author Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Pretzel's shovel yet again only scraped against the black stone floors of the interior of Nu Mercution. Senile old lunatic. Em nods to Avina and the Scar with a small wave, then frowns at Wally. He remains quiet for a time. "Would you like us to take the body to your city for a proper funeral? I'm unaware of your customs, but..." "I...yeah. He wasn't....I don't know if the Baron would approve, but U'Reeka didn't really have anyone else..." He turns to Melvin, and holds out a sheet of written music, the Minuet of the Forest. "You fought bravely, Melvin, and were a big help to us, hehe... I have no use for this song, but perhaps you can learn it and sing for your crew mates aboard your ship or cousin in Zylstra. Maybe I will meet you in either place soon enough..."

"My thanks, Hybros! Should come in handy if - er, when, we end up getting pulled into whatever ye heroes are investigating another time." Melvin put away the song and laughed heartily. "We did the right thing here, I think." "He wouldn't've let you do it. He had to...follow through with his experiment. He always said to never give up an invention until it was completed..." Jeaux placed the Crimson Haze in his briefcase and shut the latch. "We were simply completing our mission.

From what little I saw of him, he seemed like a man interested in making the world a better place, and I would like it if you would continue to follow in his footsteps." "Perhaps. For the time being I'm glad Heroica is more reasonable than I expected." She tilted her heads towards each person in turn. "Heroes." Avina then turned, exiting the tunnel, with the Scar's eyes lingering on the party a moment longer before following her out. "...Yeah. Yeah. I need to keep...following." "Go along with the heroes Wally, I'll catch up. I'll make sure all the other citizens get out." Erveka heads back into the depths of the Iron Spire. Soryx gingerly lifts up U'Reeka's body. "We ought to return to Eubric, and go back down to Zylstra from there. For what it's worth heroes, I know you made the right decision. Those things were a threat and had to be eliminated, no matter the cost." Edited July 13, 2014 by CallMePie
Emjajoas Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Em watches Avina and the Scar leave, arms crossed. He sighs, turning to Soryx. "I agree. Let us depart."
Palathadric Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Damn this! I don't seem to be able to get below the surface. I turn and mutter to Em. "I hate to see Wally in this state. The gnomes are too innocent. They don't understand evil for what it is, neither danger for that matter. We did the right thing, but from the looks of the person we rescued...one almost wonders. But some folks just don't know what's good for them. Would Wally have been happy to go back to his shackles? I should think not, but he doesn't seem to understand that our destroying the shades was the only way to prevent such trouble. I love the gnomes. Their purity is astounding, especially since they dwell in the darkness as they do. They seem to have no touch with the darkness and cruelty of the outside world...until now. Such simplicity needs protecting at all costs." I shake my head before heading out. Edited July 13, 2014 by Palathadric
