[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 3122347, member: 5675"] Our tour of the galleries complete, Flynn was the first to step onto one of the bridges to the central platform. Silently, two armoured forms descended from the ceiling, floating in mid-air in the tall pillar of air and light. Swords held in gauntlets, the armour appeared to be empty; long ribbons blowing in a non-existent breeze. They swooped to attack us, as I sang a chant of encouragement as Torvig enchanted Niccoli’s sword. The two forms clanged their swords together, sending agonising waves of sound over us, before one drifted out off the platform to hang in the open air before us. As it took flight, our hearts sank. Bows sang and swords slashed. Morgan chanted and I sang. Vicious black lines dragged the energy out of one of the wind-warriors. Our physical blows swang wild and arrows curved in flight. Spells failed and still their swords slammed down into my friends’ bodies as we tried miserably to defeat the wind-warriors. All my spell energy for an entire day were invested into Niccoli in a desperate effort to keep my strongest ally on his feet; our implacable and faceless foes showed no sign of any injury whatsoever, beyond a few feeble scratches in their armour from our more lucky blows. .oOo. With flesh failing before the elemental onslaught, we began a fighting retreat towards the door we had entered through. Suddenly, without explanation, the two elementals withdrew to the air column they had first come from. Encouraged by their retreat, Morgan stepped onto one of the stumps of fallen bridgeway and flung one of his few remaining spells at the two elementals; the fleeting image of charging ghosts causing one of the two wind-warriors to flee in terror. The other hurtled at my mage friend, dealing him a vicious slash with his longsword. Morgan stumbled backwards and fell to the floor. It wasn’t over yet. I could still see my friend’s black robes rising and falling subtly 5 feet from the floating armoured foe. Over 50 feet from us, we barraged it with a hail of largely ineffectual arrows and slingstones in a vain effort to distract the enemy, but we were unsuccessful. The wind-warrior floated forwards, two swords flashed brightly, and Morgan’s blood sprayed the air. He twisted, and was still. [/QUOTE]
