Heroes, Inc.: Aftermath

"Remember, that most demons and such can see through common magical invisibilities and the like. Our best defense when it comes to being located is speed and stealth." Alethia reminded them and grew even more sober.

"I too have some teleport spells, but I'm afraid I can take only three people with me,"

"So, is that a 'yes, we're going to split up,' or a 'no, we're going to stick together?" Dyria inquired. "Like the man says, we have little time to waste. If we split up, we cover more ground. If our guy's in the command tents, then the sooner I get there, the better."

 

[Hawkeye]

"I think we need to stay together for the assault on the fortress, then we can take on the Twiced Damned. It will be easier to rout the army, regardless of the hold the Twiced Damned have on them, where there are lightning bolts raining down upon them."

Alethia looked at the battlefield and at the sky above, thinking.... A dozen scenarios all ending badly flickered through her mind, each one rejected. Most of them involved splitting the party. "Shando's right Dyria. If we can get the tower under our control up there, we can destroy the army down there," she said, pointing to the enemy below their little encampment. "We shouldn't seperate. As the Var also say, friendly fire isn't."

 

[Falkus]

"What if we can't use it?" Dyria asked. "You wouldn't let us use the last hideously evil artifact vehicle/weapon from the depths of hell that we found. I do see your point aboout the dangers of splitting up, but there is one thing to consider. We'll have to teleport up there, but will we have enough teleport spells left over after we get up there to get back down if I need to come down here to kill my target?"

Alethia smiled grimly. "I wasn't exactly thinking of using it persea. More like crashing it." she pointed at the army below. "Down there," she brought her hands together in a small, rather explicit smash. "Big machine, bigger boom. Lotsa dead bad guys." she looked at the fighter.

"If needs be, I'll teleport you and myself straight down there after and together we will rip these vipers a new one." Alethia finished.

 

[Falkus]

"Well then, I have no more objections. Let's go. I've always wanted to have a decent fight a thousand feet up in the air anyway," Dyria said, smiling and rubbing her hands together, before extended her whip-dagger.

 

[kirinke]

Alethia smiled. "May the luck of the gods go with us then," she looked at the enormous cloud and large army before them. "Lady only knows that we'll bloody well need it,"

Rather thna you using your teleports, Fin casts Wind Walk, turning everyone into cloud forms so you can sneak around and materialize near an actual enterence. Blending in with the smoke, you observe the center area. There are four wide, rune-covered doors on the bottom of the structure, evenly distributed around the center area. There are a number of windows, but they seem to be heavily warded and not intended to be moved through. Towards the top, however, between the cylindrical part and the dome, Naverone points out that an illusion and a ward covers a bacony of some sort, though he cannot see through it per se, just detect what it is.

Murdock's foresight gives him the idea that moving meyond the balcony will result in encountering Calicos.
