"If we catch the archdemon, we could nip all of this in the bud!" I begin, but then catch myself. "You're right. Someone's life is at stake and we can't give up on the Fae One if we still have a chance. Part of me thinks I could go up and hold Rosier for a while until you guys can bring help...but I doubt that is the case. What I wouldn't give to have all of us here now...but we've spoken too much already. Let's go. We've got a Founder to rescue."

"I wish we could get to both. The Fey One we absolutely need to rescue. Monk, if you need assistance to hold Rosier, I would go with you, but I fear we will fall before the others arrive."

"Capable? I suppose. It really depends on the job. Some are better suited than others." She then notices the others quarrelling. "If you mean that, then this happens more often than not, though we usually come together."

She accepts the loot. Then, she added, "I'll be the first to." She eats her pickled mushroom. "Well, it's definitely pickled, that much I can tell."

As Kiray munches down on the mushroom, she feels strangely blessed.

Karie downs a Grand Tonic and a Smelling Salts.

QM Note: Karie does not have any Smelling Salts

Skrall downs a Mead and Nostrum, before gingerly biting into a pickled Mushroom. Feeling a wave of nauseous frailty overcome him, the ogre quickly downs a remedy.

"Looks like those things don't always go down well."

As Benji falls into a trance he receives two visions as if they are happening simultaneously. In one the party rushes down the stairs and finds the imprisoned Fey One on the edge of dying wrapped in a cocoon of white roots. Many fairies, some living, some dead, sit emaciated in chains along the walls of the tower basement.

The other vision shows the heroes running up the stairs and stopping a masked figure who has opened a portal to the material plane and is quickly preparing to escape.

Benji gets the impression that only one of these futures is attainable.

Benji quickly desribes to the group the vision he received. He also throws the mushrooms at Lind.

"You're the man, Benji." Lind shot him a thumbs-up.

On 6/8/2018 at 9:57 AM, Kintobor said:

"Lind, don't try and flatter me just yet, we're not out of the woods yet. Still, thank you." Karie grinned at Lind. She knew that a tough decision lay ahead of her. On the one hand she did not want the figure, presumedly the Rosier, getting to the material plane. On the other hand, the Fae One would be able to answer the questions brewing in her head about the Founders.

"It's only flattery if it isn't true. And it is." The Black Knight grinned back.

"Say - Benji. In your vision. Did it seem to be the door kind of portal, that we might be able to reactivate somehow, or did it look like some temporary spell?"

On 6/8/2018 at 2:59 PM, Lord Duvors said:

Throlar equipped the Rotting Rod and the Shield of Invisibility, downing a tonic in the process.

"While I would like our group to split up and deal with both problems simultaneously it seems unlikely that half of us could defeat an Archdemon by themselves. Though I doubt that the figure Benji speaks of is Rosier. To be honest it seems to me that Rosier might be in the city already considering that their roots were already making their way through the sewers of Eubric. However our duty is to rescue the Fey One and the other fairies, letting them die when we can save them is unacceptable. Besides, they may have information on Rosier and this masked figure that we need."

"I'm with Throlar. We came here to find the Fey One, and it's our duty as heroes to try and save those fairies.

Also, our Prophet only saw a masked figure - not necessarily Rosier. Could very well just be one of her underlings.

Irregardless...we came here for the Fey One. An archdemon would just have been frosting on the cake."

Lind artistically sliced the Bifrost Blades through the air in a neat semi-circle.

"Let's go."

42 minutes ago, Waterbrick Down said:

As Kiray munches down on the mushroom, she feels strangely blessed.

QM Note: Karie does not have any Smelling Salts

Skrall downs a Mead and Nostrum, before gingerly biting into a pickled Mushroom. Feeling a wave of nauseous frailty overcome him, the ogre quickly downs a remedy.

"Looks like those things don't always go down well."

"Well...better to heal up now, than in the middle of battle.

Need a remedy to replace that one, Skrall? We've still got plenty."

With some trepidation, Lind consumed his Pickled Mushroom.

If it provides a negative effect, he consumes a remedy, and if requested, hands Skrall one as well.

Quote

"I hope for all our sake it does not last long."

"Just wrapping things up." Lind smiled reassuringly at the fairy.

QM Note: Speak up if there's anything else folks want to do, I'll update in 24hrs with the groups decision. Also, Vindsval, you need to figure out which Handwear Accessory Vindsval is wearing as he cannot have two equipped.

OoC: Lind gave Karie a Level-Up Mushroom, and Benji generously donated his Mighty Mushroom to double its effects, meaning Karie should have gained 2 full levels.

(Possibly also the health bonus from the Tiny Mushroom, if Benji was contributing that as well? Don't know - @Flare?)

(Kinto put down that Karie ate the Tiny Mushroom Lind gave her, but I'm pretty sure that's a mistake, since he didn't have one to give her, (other than possibly Benji's).

Benji thinks thoughtfully but shakes his head. "I'm sorry, I'm not sure. In any case I am preferring to save the Fey One, that is the way we should go."

OoC: I contributed both mushrooms.

Also OoC: Am I able to equip more accessories? I'm a little confused as to what happened with the medal and how many i can use in any case.

Benji also consumes a nostrum, smelling salts, flame-distilled brandy, and grand tonic.

Kintobor · June 10, 2018

Somewhat surprised that Benji handed back his mushrooms, Karie eats the Mighty Mushroom, followed by the Level Up Mushroom.

"Benji, keep the Tiny Mushroom. I'm not really going to need it as much as Lind thinks. Take one of my meads as well."

As Lind munches on the mushroom he feels a terror start to grip him, before the fear can take on he downs a remedy. Skrall thanks Lind for the remedy.

"Thanks, hopefully we ain't too late."

"Nobody do anything irrational!" Karie states, her balance become off from the bones and blood. Now wasn't the time to throw up lunch, but it was becoming hard not to.

"We need to remove the vines. Benji, do you think you can use some magic to remove them?"

Palathadric · June 12, 2018

I suddenly find myself rooted to the spot, too afraid to do anything useful. I can only stare straight at the Founder while the others get to work.

Asphalt · June 12, 2018

Be careful, no one rush in. Benji If I may keep the medal of Valor You can wear the Anniversary Medal.

Vindsval Hands Benji his Anniversary Medal. and then consumes a Nostrum and Ambrosia

Watcha the dead, and for traps. This seems a bad place to step poorly.

OOC: vindsval should be at full level 43 after getting triple experience for the last battle.

Benji takes the Anniversary Medal and equips it.

Benji inspects from a distance the body of the fairy, wary of a trap. Summoning his connection to the heavenly, he burns as much ether as necessary and uses his Arcane Wisdom to reveal any trick and to try and remove the vines.

**KotZ** · June 13, 2018

Kiray stares stunned at the Founder. "Well, good thing we went here first," she mutters to know one in particular. She checks for traps. She then tirects her attention to the faeries, "Have you ever seen vines like this before?"

Duvors · June 13, 2018

(WBD; Throlar shouldn't be immune to ice if he doesn't have the Weathered Shield equipped.)

The very sight of the room made Throlar feel nauseous, the stench alone was almost enough to make him retch. He managed to control himself, extorting himself inwardly to stay calm and consider the situation rationally. Regaining his self control he stood over the bound and helpless fey, pensively mulling over the scene in front of him.

"Now," he said after a minute, "if I was an Archdemon and I had such a prisoner and I decided that, for whatever reason, they had to be kept alive then I'd have countermeasures in place in case someone came to rescue them. Firstly, I'd assume that if any enemy managed to get this far into my fortress and neither I nor my servants could reach them in time I would start with setting it up so that any attempt to free my captive would somehow result in their death. If I could I'd also set it up so that all these corpses around here would come to life and attack if anyone tried. Finally, if someone did manage to free my prisoner regardless, I would try to enact some form of mind control on them that would cause them to attack their rescuers. Of course, Rosier is not me, and it is unlikely they would have the same thought processes as me, but it's still something to keep in mind."

"Are you alright? said Throlar to the monk, "if you need to step outside a moment to recover then feel free to do so. I can accompany you if you wish."

"I wouldn't recommend trying to remove the vines until we know more about the situation, we should check for traps and countermeasures first." he said, using his Magnifying Glass to examine the room and the vines binding the Fey One.

"No...no..." I rasp hoarsely. "There is no time for all that. We've got to go to the rescue. We could have chased a demon, but we came down here instead, we've got to see it through to completion."

Benji learns that the bonds are demonic in nature and origin and that the right kind of spell would be needed in order to extricate the Fey One without killing her. The prophet sinks to one knee as he feels half of his ether reserves drain from his body.

Kiray and Throlar do not find any traps within the torture chamber.

"They came with the Demon, They spread them whereever they go."

Flare · June 14, 2018

Benji slowly rises and looks at the group solemnly.

"The fey one is trapped under deep demonic power. Is there one who can cast a spell proper to free her, or am I the best one to attempt the feat?"

My armor grants me immunity to the demonic, perhaps it would cause them to recoil from her?

Kintobor · June 14, 2018

Karie grimaces.

"I'm assuming we need light magic? None of us have a diamond. I could potentially recede the vines with an Angelic Aria, but I don't know how effective it would be.

We could try and remove the vines with the use of an Emerald, but I'm not familiar with elemental magic."

"The bonds are definitely demonic by nature, they are not vines of the botanical arrangement. I doubt an Emerald would help, but the Angelic Aria might just do the trick, if you're feeling confident. "

"Anybody got a solution that's a little more precise than a column of radiant fire?

"That seems like a bit of overkill to me...the people we tend to fight tend not to put quite as much thought into these things as we do.

Still, though, that's a good point on the corpses..."

Not having any real means to check for traps, Lind shrugged.

"I agree, Karie should sing an Angelic Aria - and someone should really check these corpses for any lingering magic spells, like Throlar suggested."

"I have no idea what to do, I could heal them, but I doubt that would do anything to free them. We might be able to ask my angel for assistance but I don't know how we'd go about doing that. So far they've only appeared in battle and haven't spoken much when they did."

"I'd rather hold off on the holy fire until we've tried a few other methods first."

Throlar sighed, "Well, seeing as I can't think of anything else I'll try healing to see if it works."

With that Throlar knelt down beside the bound figure of the Fey One and began using the Unicorn's Horn to nurture them, muttering under his breath as he did;

"Angel, whoever you are, whatever your name is, and whatever god you serve, if any, if you can help us now in any way, then please do so. I beg of you."

Asphalt · June 15, 2018

Vindsval jams the club into his belt and pulls the Crystal Blade from its place on his back.

If it is a blade of light that is needed to cut back the darkness, would that once wielded by an Angel suffice?
