[QUOTE="Spider_Jerusalem, post: 2302905, member: 5507"] [B][COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Discard you martyrdom here, for it will achieve you no glory, only death"[/COLOR][/B] Stepping in slowly, Milo looked in awe as he saw that the contraption appeared to be an underwater submersible, with a dwarf sized seat visible through the thick glass. At the fore of the craft were a pair of little silver claws, although Milo couldn't think what for. Without a word of encouragement, the pair of adventurers prized open the cockpit and clambered in, just managing to fit a human and a halfling into the small space. Milo squirmed suddenly as Dariel flapped his wings in the halfling’s face. Milo shot his limbs out in all directions, pressing his knee against a small lever as he shouted a curse at Thalin’s familiar. With a grinding noise, the doors that the tracks led through slid open, letting in a blast of water, which began to flood the basement of the tower. With a squeal of brakes that had not been used for over fifty years, the Apparatus of Kwalish rolled into momentum. At the side of the lake, Klauth lifted his head, water spilling from his jaws as he turned back to the aasimar, "[B][COLOR=Red]Now leave. And discard you martyrdom here, for it will achieve you no glory, only death. Now hurry on little man and follow your creeping companions[/COLOR][/B]." Torious turned and walked, his mind thumping with the words that the dragon spoke. His thoughts reeling, the only words which emerged clear from the maelstrom were [B]Now Leave[/B]. Before Torious could douse the blaze raging in his head, he had already climbed back up the footholds and stood on the edge of the laddered shaft leading back to the airlock below. As the thoughts finally begin to filter from his mind, Torious turned in time to see Klauth sit up on his hind legs and kick forwards like an immense wildcat. Spreading his brilliant wings, Klauth circled in the air. Klauth made a slow, lazy circle towards the aarakocras. The birdmen had begun to drag and fumble the sodden red torso of Zalaznir up the cliff face, tearing chunks from the paladin as they pulled him towards their nests. Klauth completed his slow circle towards the cliff face and sucked in deeply before moments later hurling forth a searing blast of white-hot fire that rolled off the jagged stone in an avalanche of surging flame. Klauth ascended slowly, letting the rising blaze soothe across his stomach as he passed through it, and placing his back legs onto the cliff edge, pushed forwards again, soaring high into the sky. As the blast died and the flames pealed upwards in a broil of smoke and heat, a fine shower of dust settled slowly to the surface of the lake. Torious gazed coldly once again at the dragon's choice of searing justice, then turned and began to descend back into the mines. [/QUOTE]
