[QUOTE="MarkM, post: 8808071, member: 7025557"] Session 27 [IMG]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/DoklFYvH7MEFAGTryCYjmFmI6TO-gKHDiB4bKjIkqKpBSecVH2IlY4kz0I1N8lADomRrAwbOZzKgaW-o43Iup0mpbNs_Vlg7asGU05OQPhyqe504pRd0BuejKCEZI7whTSTLBVMi5L520iJYLV6vnEIOE9X9cYRhj_OBGt1Q_HsfviPMji_BjXvS[/IMG] This turned out to be a very long night. When the walls went transparent and Xambria floated through the ceiling, I thought we’d immediately go after her. Unfortunately, some dark robed individuals (some working for Kell) were down in the basement with us and forced a decision. Do we fight or chase? Initially, we wanted to save Finona since she might still have information on this secret organization. But, she was killed almost immediately and so Sylvia shouted to head up the stairs and to Saxby’s office. Don’t have to tell me twice… I dashed up the stairs and made it to the top floor only to see another of the large maw creatures to my left and inside Delft’s office. I also saw the A-team seemingly confused and still in their office so I ran to them, gave them a quick rundown of what was going on and then encouraged them to help me save Delft. I’d later find out that though I thought my companions were right behind me, they ended up getting bogged down in the basement and I was on my own. Also, the walls kept phasing in and out. You could walk through them one second and then they’d be solid again the next. We broke into Delft’s office just as the creature was lighting into him. We did some quick, good damage but then the A-team asked me if I could handle the rest while they went to check on Saxby. Still thinking my team would burst through the door any second, I told them to go for it. That’s when I noticed something was wrong with Delft. The mind madness seemed to have gotten to him. He called me a doppleganger and I could tell he wanted to kill me should he get out of the tentacles of the creature. That put me in a precarious situation… Right around then is when Bell came through the stairs. Together, we finished off the creature and I dashed out of the room before Delft could attack. He did take a shot at poor Bell however and it looked like it stung… Down the hall I could see Saxby and the A-team coming out of her office. She saw me and called that we should secure the building. But, Bell and I decided to follow them instead. Again, poor Bell couldn’t quite keep up with me and I’d later find out he was waylaid by creatures in the hallway upstairs while I was making my way down the stairwell. When I got a floor down I found the A-team and Saxby. And, shockingly, even though a few seconds ago she’d told me to secure the building, now she was telling the A-team that the Hounds were traitors and not to leave any of us alive. Just as shockingly, the A-team seemed to go along with it and began attacking me. That’s when Sylvia and the rest of the team finally made their way up. With the help of a suggestion spell, we were able to talk the A-team down and Sylvia and I ran after Saxby. Right before I went however, Gyldiel said he’d seen Xambria go into a tunnel down in the basement and he believed the phasing we were experiencing came from down there. We caught up to Saxby and she claimed she was confused and didn’t remember telling the A-team to kill us and that we should all go back. I didn’t believe her at all but Sylvia said we had more important matters to deal with. She grabbed me and using her pendant, flew us back toward the building. I guess we’ll see if Saxby follows or not. Back in the building, we regrouped, went down to the basement and found the spot Gyldiel had seen Xambria enter. We were beat up, most of my companions were out or almost out of spells, and now we were about to follow after someone we know is very dangerous… I guess this is the job... [/QUOTE]
