COMBAT ROUND 3 (CONCLUSION)
"
Krund! It is I Kalenestarianthalus Floriandin! Its not been that long since we saw each other. You sound like you have a cold. Stop the nonsense and blow your nose man. Then tell me what has happened to you."
Krund calls back out to Kalen,
"'Struth, I know ye not, nor care I! Cursed by Olidamarra I be, lo, all these centuries! Fie upon thee, Faithless Laugher, for what choice had we but to eat the flesh of our comrades! I know ye not, but once ye've joined me in death, we'll acquaint ourselves! Ha ha!"
Keoni, heeding Col's words, draws forth his silver dagger once more, lashing out at the undead cleric before him, but the bony creature steps to the side, leaving the silvered blade to cleave naught but air.
Chongo takes a wild swing with his flail, putting extra power behind the strike, but his aim is spoiled by a surge of the tide. The flail misses the huecuva.
Bael, having seeing evidence that his magic missiles can harm Krund, unleashes another of the bolts of pure force. Again, the huecuva is rocked by the powerful missile, eliciting more cursing from its fleshless jaws.
With a hiss, the huecuva cocks a bony fist at Keoni and lunges for the dragon shaman, but the young islander sees the blow coming and ducks in time to avoid injury.
Anar slashes lightly with his sickle, trying to distract the huecuva. It seems to work, creating an opening which Chongo should be able to exploit with his next attack.
"Leave off, boy, there be plenty o'death to go 'round!"
As Col's spell of summoning concludes, a beautiful white porpoise appears next to the huecuva, and immediately it snaps at the skeletal cleric's legs with its blunt teeth, but its bite fails to connect.
Col concentrates for a moment, as he searches the dark recesses of his mind for further lore which might help turn the tide of battle. Seconds later, the ancient secrets he reveals help to guide the blades of all who do battle. Satisfied, the mad archivist begins to wade back to the west, seeking to sidle around Bael to stand behind Chongo. Unfortunately, another tidal surge knocks the frail old one from his feet, where he again lands on the painful spines of an iridescent urchin! As the venom begins to wreak its havoc within his system, Col can only grimace as his stomach empties its contents into the murky water.
