[QUOTE="talien, post: 4976590, member: 3285"] [b]Red Skies: Part 10 – Death Fog[/b] Eventually, the Nǎoké entered a patch of thick fog. The water was very still and there was only a slight breeze. Every sound was magnified in the stillness. The ropes rubbed against the mast, the ship’s boards creaked, and the lapping of the water on the ship’s hull combined to become both annoying and creepy. “We’re at the center of Hell’s Triangle,” said Carthy. “We’re almost there.” Suddenly, two sailors were yanked out of the fog. Beldin ran over to the edge, axe at the ready, only to be suddenly snatched into the mists by a huge tentacle. “I can’t see it!” shouted Sebastian. He was afraid to fly too far away from the ship, lest he lose it completely. “[FONT="Impact"]Incendiares globus![/FONT]” The fog was burned away by a blast of flames in the sky. There, suction-cupped to the side of the Nǎoké, was a horrible green monstrosity. It had four tentacles, a single eyestalk, and a huge, lamprey-like maw. Sebastian caught a glimpse of Beldin being tossed through the air like a seal at the mercy of a shark’s maw. Then he disappeared into the beast’s mouth. That was all the motivation he needed. Sebastian unleashed another blast of flames. The thing hissed at him, its mouth moving as it chewed on the undoubtedly tough dwarf. “[FONT="Impact"]Algor conus![/FONT]” Ice crusted over the beast. It shook the rime off with a shrug of its rubbery hide. Crossbow bolts dotted its hide. To Sebastian’s amazement, they popped out after a moment. “It’s healing itself!” shouted Carthy. Sebastian shook his head in disbelief. He had to stop this. “[FONT="Impact"]Multimodis oris![/FONT]” Shimmering blue jaws appeared in the air. Sebastian pointed and they sailed after the thing on the ship, gnawing on its blubbery hide. Finally, the beast reacted, flailing helplessly as it struggled to dislodge the jaws. It released its hold on the ship and fell into the water with a mighty splash. Red stained the water and the thing’s floating carcass drifted in the water. Beldin burst out of it, sputtering. He concentrated and rose out of the water, landing effortlessly on the deck. “Took you long enough,” said the dwarf. “I had to keep drinking healing potions in there just to keep myself alive.” Sebastian slapped his forehead.
