You rub Mehlah.

Elendr asks, "An Immortal versus mortals, who would you bet on?"

Elendr cocks his head.

You exclaim, "Don't!"

Valdirn asks, "so why should we repent, when he shows you no mercy?"

Sothog rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Valdirn peers quizzically at Mehlah.

You take a quick appraisal of Mehlah and find that he has severe head trauma and bleeding from the ears.

Vonka exclaims, "We gonner fight...!"

Daergyn asks, "how did there come so many corpses?"

Elendr leans on Alyxandrah.

Roelon indicates his sinuous blade with a smile.

You hear the ghostly voice of Aranrhod say, "He is in more danger"

You exclaim, "The Nine!"

Vonka exclaims, "An' fight...!"

Nodyre says, "Lotta folks bein' kilt"

You glance at Daergyn.

Roelon squints.

Alyxandrah smiles weakly.

An unsettling groan comes from the spirit of Mehlah.

Bennt asks, "aye, what is going on about?"

Valiria shivers.

(Eugenides purses his lips, lookin about himself with half closed eyes.)

Sothog says, "The Nine dropped a few fireballs on some heads."

You hear the voice of Darra say, "Its the eight now. I kilt one of em about 15 min ago."

You hear the ghostly voice of Tierus say, "Darra, tha' wis a rolton."

(Vonka marches around the area, pumping her fist in the air.)

You say, "Likely a minion."

You hear the voice of Darra say, "Roltons are not undead with a bad smell."

Daergyn nods.

Alyxandrah says, "Cowards always attack from the shadows."

You hear the faint thoughts of Delyian echo in your mind:
"If I die, you know where it's coming from"

You hear your own faint thoughts echoing in your head:
"Sulphur rising from the ice!"

Vonka says, "Moon risin' already."

(Atoyoz looks at the cloud to the north.)

You say, "Which moon..."

(Vonka pushes her sleeves up.)

Valiria says, "I dont wanna know"

You hear the ghostly voice of Tierus exclaim, "Aye, Jestin!"

Tzuriz says in Elven, "struck down by fireballs from the sky...least a couple of them"

Eugenides nods to Nodyre.

Arimantis gestures at Ilvane.
Arimantis suddenly looks very drained.
A bolt of soft white light streaks down from the sky bathing Ilvane in it.

Alyxandrah asks, "What...?"

Roelon points north.

Lord Nodyre just went north.

You concentrate on the Head Repair spell...
You concentrate.
Your head feels better.

Elendr says, "Old Icemule."

Casually Alyxandrah pushes her finger into her eye socket. After a moment to get proper leverage, she pops the eyeball from her skull, sending it tumbling in your direction. Suddenly a couple of small batlike wings pop from its bloody sides and it begins to hover just out of reach, looking about.

Akater says, "that was kinda a cheap shot"

You hear the faint thoughts of Valicar echo in your mind:
"Darra's symbol failed"

You concentrate on the Head Repair spell...
You concentrate.

Eugenides shakes his head.

You concentrate on the Head Repair spell...
You concentrate.
Your head feels better.

Roelon says, "If ah nae...make it.."

Alyxandrah seems to be concentrating on something.

A disembodied, floating eye just came through the South Gate.

Eugenides shakes his head.

A disembodied eye zips past you and heads straight for Alyxandrah who casually snatches it out of the air with a sticky splat sound. Without hesitation, Alyxandrah pushes her elusive peeper back into her eye socket. With a few blinks it seems to function properly once again. Alyxandrah wipes some icky residue from her face and smiles.

Alyxandrah says, "AYe."

Alyxandrah says, "I'll come..."

Ilvane flails her arms about.

You hear the faint thoughts of Sothog echo in your mind:
"Aye, it did. Darra'd best get a refund."

You hear the ghostly voice of Aranrhod say, "Probably not"

Brediph rubs Kadesha gently.

You shudder.

You hear the faint thoughts of Telenoth echo in your mind:
"I suggest everyone get indoors"

Eugenides nods to you.

Sothog nods to you.

You hear the ghostly voice of Aranrhod say, "Get Kadesha up then at least"

"At least for the time being"

Ilvane paces back and forth.

Clouds of sulphurous smoke drift from the north.

Sothog says, "Indeed, we need to get everyone indoors."

Haxley whistles something nasty between clenched teeth.

You whisper quietly to Mehlah, "Can I fog ye to Voln, poor soul?"

Mehlah's hands are out of reach.

You hear the faint thoughts of Telenoth echo in your mind:
"And have scouts around town, hidden. No need in everyone dieing before the battle."

"more clouds"

You say, "He won't let me touch him."

You hear the ghostly voice of Kadesha say, "I hate the smell of sulphur"

"We need a few hiding bases. Peoole should take cover in the inn, the tart tables, etc"

You hear the ghostly voice of Aranrhod say, "I tried to get him help"

The spirit of Aranrhod sighs softly, raising the hairs on the back of your neck.

[Icemule Trace, Ice Garden]
Alpine flowerbeds ring this tucked-away courtyard, their bright colors a feast for the eyes in comparison to the white of all the snow that lies beyond the gate. Tamped snow paths keep footsteps soft in this small haven as travellers make their way to and from the chambers north of here. Centered in a bed of white edelweiss and aromatic purple-flowered calamintha is an ice fountain, its watery spray frozen in a sparkling plume. You also see the Dardac disk, a dented brass trunk, the Falonvel disk and a wrought-iron gate.
