[QUOTE="Iron Sky, post: 5014143, member: 60965"] Session 27, Part 3 “Throw another log on the fire, if I'm going to be dead tonight I want to be warm today,” Kormak said. Bail shrugged and tossed a massive log into the fire with one hand. Harold and half-a-dozen Crystal Towers soldiers sat at their own table in the small tavern, while Bail, Keeper, Kormak and Suniel sat at another. The day was particularly chill and the tavern drafty, so both tables were pulled close to the fireplace. “Who are these guys again?” Kormak said, gesturing towards Harold's entourage. “These are my men,” Harold said. “They will be assisting me in our upcoming mission.” “Mission?” Kormak said. “Never heard it called that before. What we're actually doing is attacking the beastie that stole our island so we can get murdered.” Harold's men exchanged questioning, slightly worried glances. “Ignore the dwarf,” Bail said then turned to Suniel. “What is the plan?” “Yesterday I visited the sight of the fallen Skyland, as we talked of earlier,” Suniel said, his voice soft enough that everyone leaned in to hear. “It sat upside down in the Sands with a globe of unnatural darkness atop it.” “So the creature is still there?” Bail said. “Yes, or it was yesterday. It may have left in the mean time,” Suneil said. “Well, if it has, then our job will be a lot easier,” Bail said. “Just dig through the Sands to the henge and put the Stone back in it.” “How many can you take?” Harold said. “I can transport us plus four of your men.” “Three and me,” Velea said, walking in the doorway of the tavern. “She's coming?” Kormak said. “Why's she coming?” “I am not entirely without worth should it come to fighting,” she said, stepping into one shadow and stepping out of another half-way across the room. “That's neat,” Kormak said. “Do that again.” “So us plus three of your men,” Suniel said. “I'll show you how to draw the energy of the lightning stone and unleash it. We can fill that Nightwing's black sphere of hiding with lightning, then if it flies out, we'll knock it out of the air with the True Stone of Air.” “Will the Skyland still fly after falling to the Sands?” Bail said, turning to Velea. The seeress nodded and took a seat at the table. “The temple might be ruined, but the Skyland itself should still be intact.” “Excellent, let's go kill that thing then,” Kormak said, standing up. The others stood as well and followed Suniel out of the tavern. *** An hour later, they stood in the Endless Sands, staring at the craggy, lightning-scorched underside of the Skyland that jutted up before them. “Did we kill it?” Kormak said. Suniel chanted and gestured and the Nightwing's sphere of darkness burned away like fog in the noon-day sun. The Skyland was bare. "If you'd done that before we blasted it, we wouldn't have wasted the True Stone's energies," Kormak said. "Taking the time to do that might have given it time to get away," Suniel said. “Regardless, it either got away or was already gone,” Bail said, staring up at the dark clouds. “Keep on guard,” Suniel said. “Harold, you and Velea want to scout ahead and see if we can get this thing flying again?” Harold nodded and he and the seeress trudged across the Sands, the others watching warily for signs of the Nightwing.
