Message: <blockquote data-quote="Eccles" data-source="post: 3345624" data-attributes="member: 5675">I stared in horror at the three massive lizardmen, who tossed aside the empty poison flasks and glared back at me.“Is that it,” bellowed the King. “Am I now supposed to be invincible? I shall test my new strength on the prisoners.”Once again, the psychopathic lizard monarch turned on the two supposed captives, who lay on the floor trying hard not to twitch. Concerned, I interrupted him once again.“My liege, there appears to be something amiss with the flow of the magics. Allow me but to examine you.”Swiftly, I cast a spell of magical sight, and scrutinised the figures before me. I could see Igmut, sword drawn, standing to one side of them cloaked in the invisibility spell I had cast on him earlier. I could also see Malachite, swathed in transmutation magics, warped into the form of a large snake. The lizardmen wore enchanted necklaces and bracers giving them some kind of protection, and each of them was cloaked in some kind of powerful enchantment. They all held magical tridents, although the king’s was the most alarming, both in terms of power, and because he was raising it to stab at the prisoners.“The necklaces must be protecting them!” Yelling this in common, I dived for some cover and started up a chant of encouragement for the others. Even as I leapt back, Flynne swung down from the ceiling, firing 2 shots at the king whilst hanging by his knees from the roots of the roof. From my rear, Endo stepped around into sight chanting, and my mystical sight could see the null-magic of his spell rippling around the targets, and stripping away the enchantment around the king, the dark aura surrounding him being stripped away in an instant. The captured soldier scrambled to his feet and dashed backwards, firing a captured crossbow wildly in a panic as he went. Igmut blinked into view, his heavy sword swinging for the king’s neck with pinpoint accuracy. It sliced through the cord fastening the magical necklace to the huge figure’s neck, and we all held our breaths for a split second, willing the poison to take effect.It didn’t.</blockquote>
