Message: <blockquote data-quote="Knightfall" data-source="post: 9172863" data-attributes="member: 2012">"The Dusk have entrenched themselves in the city's Undercity in two places. They have taken over an old hideout of the Rising Swords, which was abandoned after it was raided by the Elites. The guards collapsed the previous entrance but there are secret ways into the hideout that The Dusk learned of from the mercenaries still in the city."The Butcher looks back towards the ceiling. "They have also taken over an old abandoned warehouse on the edge of the Cavern Harbour, which they use as secret gathering point in their fight against the Hammers and the Golden Sabres of Sordadon.""That is your second question, cleric.""But it did succeed. Chaos was sowed in the streets and many of the city's guards died. Yes, you saved those fighting alongside you, but you could not save everyone. For my master, that was a success. He knew you would kill The Beast, eventually, but it was a good distraction so that he could prepare several strike teams to secure the portal room of the Labyrinth of Lost Souls from the knight, Sin Voz, and to expand his reach into both the Military District and Mining District."The Butcher's dead form chuckles. Air wheezes from the gash in its chest. "The master will learn all of the secrets of the Ancients and use them against you. Once all of the Ancient structures are secured, Bluffside will be his to rule... to use... to conquer... all will fall down and worship him as a living god.""I am dead. But, I am also Endless. I will be reborn in the Sanctuary and my progeny will seek revenge against those that killed this body. He will decide on his own plan. He will not be me, but he will be me. He will not remember my death, but the Keepers of the Sanctuary will teach him as much about my final moments on this plane. He will create his own Soul Beacon. He will decide his own revenge in his own time. He is not beholden to my wishes or my past." The dead form of The Butcher pauses. "But, he will come for those who killed me. He will bring them pain and death. He is Endless. Nothing will stand in his way.""I cannot tell you where he will come from in order to seek our revenge. He may seek the aid of Phelix Del Cannitha, my master. The one who freed me. But, the alienist is not his master. That pact died with me. Those who have wronged us will face his wrath. None shall be spared. We are Endless."The enchantress's body is not in as good shape as The Butcher's. Sir Breva's blade cut a deep wound from her right shoulder to her left hip. Her jaw is cracked, so when the body speaks, it does so with a grinding lisp."My liege has power you cannot imagine, welp," she hisses at Vitus. "He is the strongest sorcerer I have ever known. Perhaps that is the weakness you seek, hmm? He is not a wizard, so he does not have the magical range of wizard or the respect that comes from being a wizard in Bluffside. This makes him willful and angry. And sometimes reckless. His will is strong, even with what he was forced to surrender to become an alienist, so magic meant to control the mind are useless against him. His body isn't as strong or quick, but he makes up for that with his keen mind and force of personality."She hisses again. "He knows magic up to nearly the highest order of spells. He can summon alien beings and dispel, dismiss, and banish nearly at will. Yes, he is sorcerer, not a wizard. So, his range of magicks are more limited.""Plane shift will work," she hisses. "If you wish to seek a quick death or imprisonment in one of the enclave's many teleportation circles, which can trap intruders. The enclave was created by the Ancients. It is protected from intrusion without the proper key."The corpses jaw gets stuck for half a minute. She gurgles and hisses. "If you do not wish to risk such magicks, then seek out one of the planar keys that Phelix has constructed from the essence of those flowers. He has several hidden in the enclave and those he trusts have such keys on them or stashed away.""Why would we not want to follow a living god?" she hisses. "Such a silly question.""FIRE!" She hisses loudly. "Phelix will burn you with fire!"Her voice rises up into the air and echoes throughout the mortuary. "He will burn you to the ground with a fireball spell. That is his favourite spell to use against those who do not share his vision. Loyalists gladly die by fire when fighting alongside him. It is our gateway to the alien paradise of the Unseen Abyss."</blockquote>
