[QUOTE="Deuce Traveler, post: 3886836, member: 34958"] As Barok repeatedly strikes the nearest statue's hands where the chain meets stone the salt mephit becomes increasingly agitated, holding its head in its hands and mumbling frantically, [color=violet]"No, no no no... but it was a war... a war...!"[/color] Barok begins to make headway, causing several large cracks to form along the hand, which in turn causes the white aura of the chain to glow brighter from each strike. Finally the chain snaps away from the hand and the aura dims to a low glow as the entire arm of the statue crumbles, but the mephit shrieks soon after and leaps at the rogue, claws extended. Phly had the creature trained with his wand, and fires before the creature can get far, and Barok easily dodges the nearly dead creature. Silas steps in next, finishing the pitiful thing off with a swing to its head. It twitches and lays dying at the abjurer's feet. A snapping sound brings the party's attention back to the sarcophagus, and the group turns to see that in addition to a now-slack glowing white chain, the links of the red-glowing chain are somehow being stretched and are popping off almost as by an invisible, giant hand, causing this chain to also glow slack and become dimmer. The further half of the chain with the blue aura is suddenly completely shattered, and fragments of it land all around you as the remnants of the chain near its statue also flickers and fades. The lid of the sarcophagus is slowly forced open by something inside, and you have difficulty seeing for a moment as fire can be seen inside the small crack that is steadily pushed wider. However, this fire also slowly dims and is extinguished, causing the room to grow darker. Phly lights a torch and tosses it to the ground, while returning a double grip to his staff, but in the mixed light of the dimming auras from the chains and his torch you can now see a hand grasp appear from the sarcophagus and grasp the side of it while accompanied by a large intake of air, as if someone took one deep intake of breathe.
