[QUOTE="Iron Sky, post: 5004684, member: 60965"] Session 26, Part 4 <Short post since I didn't realize how little there was left in this session. Technically, there's only 4 sessions left, but my notes for these last few sessions take up 1/4 of the google-doc I have them in...> Harold was caught by surprise, a wraith rising out of the ground beside him and grabbing onto his leg with an icy grip. He fired an arrow at it point-blank and drove it off, but others were soon swarming around him. He dropped his bow, drew his sword, and slashed his way through the shadows and wraiths that seemed to be rising out of everywhere. He made his way towards the front of the monastery, but saw an even larger throng of the spectral dead pressing against gold-glowing wards that blocked the monastery doorway. There was no way to get in there. Suddenly a deathly chill stuck him and his muscles locked up. He fought it until his muscles ached, the dead closing in on him from the darkness. Just as one of the living shadows reached him, its umbral hands reaching for his throat, he shook off the paralyzing chill and staggered away. Something huge and dark swooped down from the shadows, black foot-long claws slashing into his back and sending him rolling down the path of the mountainous Skyland. He pulled himself to his feet, disoriented and wracked with pain. He saw the others fighting at the entrance to the temple and suddenly the protective wards failed. As he watched, the winged terror swooped down and tore Bail's rune-forged armor right off the half-dragon. As dark things closed in on all sides, Harold swung wildly until his hand was caught in an icy, insubstantial grip that held it like iron.[I]There's too many of them[/I], he thought as his sword fell from his hands. Cold deeper than winter worked its way up his arm and his knees buckled. The spectral dead danced around him, hands extended towards him like frostbitten beggars around a bonfire. A soft, malevolent voice rasped across his brain. -Give up the stone- “Never!” Suniel shouted. -Give up the stone or die- Harold tried to shout his defiance but only a whisper escaped his lips. Suniel gestured and, with a flicker, Harold's companions disappeared. The giant shadowy beast – a massive, bat-winged nightmare – turned on him, its eyes glowing like coals. “They got away from you, Thessalock-spawn,” Harold whispered as his life-energy slowly drained away into the creatures of darkness. “The Crystal Towers will never fall.” -But you die here- It's massive claws pierced Harold through in half-a-dozen places, but he died laughing his defiance.
