The Ecaterine Husk: Round 7
With a quick prayer to the Sovereigns, Ashlyn is briefly surrounded with a silvery glow that infuses her companions. Their wounds once again being to heal. [Sacred Healing]
Tessa raises her hand and the magical weapon obeys, plunging deep into the raised faces! As the cacophony raised to a howl of anguish, the cleric pulls free her wand of healing to tend the fallen. [AC 16 hits, 10hp damage; creature near death]
Its mists is tatters and its faces in mortal anguish, the undead fiend rushes through stone and ruin at the fallen Perriwimple. With a surge, it reaches through the rubble to tear at the fallen boy! With a wrench, it tears into the gentle boy's heart! As his life is extinguished, his frightening cry rings out in the night, all the more horrifying as it now comes from the partially restored mass! [Creature crits Perriwimple for 13hp (two natural 20s!) and absorbs his essence, killing him and healing it; creature still near death]
Plunging through rubble and between the ruin's spires, Janis surges forward with blue lighting crackling around her many hands. The creature tears asunder one of her many faces, but the true storm mage plunges her hands into its icy depths and lets go with the full force of her fury. It surges blue-black, its form burning from within, but coherent wisp of its horror survives. [15hp before save]
Weaving in and out, Jarrith dodges the insubstantial mouths as he rounds a corner. But his ankle twists as he lands, and he slams into the rock wall, destroying the momentum of his attack. [Nat 1 misses!]
The Ecaterine Husk: Round 8
Ashlyn's mouth sets as she tries to find her footing in the rubble, implacably stalking her foe.
Anguished over being too late to save the gentle giant, Tessa once again mentally thrusts the weapon of Vol at the dying blob. As it sinks into its core, a piercing scream fills the night, and with a flash of blinding light and force enough to knock all those standing to the ground, the nightmare dissipates in a ball of force! [AC 19 hits; 9 hp; destroyed]
The Ecaterine Husk: End Combat
The silence that follows in deafening. Dark clouds continue to hid the night sky, and a biting wintery chill fills the air. Out of the darkness, the source of its fear abated, the towering bear makes its way to Janis and nuzzles her. But otherwise, the place remains as dead has it has for years uncounting.
