Endgame

I'll just give you more consumables you'll have to spend on the final boss if you want to avoid a TPKO.

What is normally my Summer trip down South just became my Winter one due to some health issues with the family I have living there. I apologize, but I'll have to push 147 back to February 26th. For those that have been waiting in the hall since the start of January, I am incredibly sorry about this. I should be able to maintain participation in any quests I'm on.

"So you concede that both Eubric and Fellcreste are in shambles... But wish to move Eubric there anyway? Tell me. Ambefr. How long have you been undead? Perhaps a decade? Perhaps more, less? I want you to ry and guess how long I have walked this Earth as a husk."

"I gave you fair warning, Amber. And I do believe Silvia was the one who turned Lyudmilla against us, so... You'll have to excuse my lack of sympathy. Well, as you've probably deduced, we're not huge fans of you committing a mass murder. I think you're ill, Amber. You're not putting the pieces together. You don't understand what you're doing is wrong. And you don't understand we're here to make things right. Gentlemen? I think we might have similar ideas right now?"

Didn't you host Quest 30?

I'll be around to help y'all fight those pesky gem sprites, though.

"I assume you have pieced this together, but we disagree with your plans. That's why we're here. As for who put us up to it, well... I'm unsure if you're ready to know that yet."

I stow my staff away, but never letting it out of arm's reach. "Let's talk, Amber. You talk first."

"And you're considered "master class", Althior? Might want to invest in reading glasses, my friend." I give Althior a Grand Tonic so he can keep casting.

"Vind? Nice arm. You must've been on Father Grogmas's nice list. Looks like this it it, then... Hopefully Amber isn't hiding herself too well down there." I down a mead and nostrum. "Into the breach."

Yeah, he's a pretty chill guy.

I'm STILL trying to figure out that boss rush.

I've just been waiting until I can start Judgment Day.

"Slivia was conspiring with Makepeace to turn Eubric into a necropolis, and move everyone from Fellcrest there. Would you have any idea where Amber is hiding, beyond just "East"?"

"A molotov cocktail? That sounds... Uh, not bad. Why would you throw it at her?"

"Silvia, unfortunately, was conspiring against you as well. She was the one that gave you command to try and kill us... I do not know what relationship you had. If you wish for her to be released, just say the word. It's... Been a long while, Lyudmilla, that you were enthralled. Perhaps a few weeks, I hope."

"Lyudmilla... A villain, Amber Makepeace, forcibly manipulated you. I imagine you were drugged and then possessed by her wraith. I imagine this is a lot to take in." I offer a gloved hand to Lyudmilla, standing on the side opposite of Vindsval on his own offered hand. "Let Vindsval and I help you up."

I try healing the Countess with a Phoenix Essence. "Work... She's an innocent, Helvetia, she hardly deserves to die again..."

"If Vindsval can make his poison even deadlier for one battle, more power to him. If he wishes to exhange, so be it." I watch as the dwarf erupts in rage, shaking my head. I feared that the shadow would be incorporeal, unkillable, but if the Holy Bomb did something...

I take two Myrrhs. Althior recieves 2 tonics, as well as sterile gloves. Vindsval recieves Venom x2 and Deadly Venom, plus an Elixir. Throlar recieves 100 gold. "I will not be judged by someone planning to massacre another city. You would of killed us either way. Do not even dare pretend your crusade is righteous. What's nex on the agenda, Amber? Ready to confront us?" I look sadly at the beaten Lyudmilla, and run over to check her pulse.

Charon.

The Veterans meet. "Have we managed to assemble the representatives yet?" "No. Tensions are growing - they're being uncooperative." "And the deadline is drawing near..." "I wouldn't worry about that. We made contact with the dragon, via his archangel. Immortalis has agreed to grant us more time if it means he will be receiving a relatively stable group of representatives in Eschaton." "Good. If we can avoid conflict with him, we must." "How much do we know about this dragon, Cain? Is he even a threat?" "About him? No. But I know dragons. And we know what his sons are capable of. It's best to be cautious." "Hmm. Very well..." Quest #147 has been delayed until February 12th.
