As Skor makes his kick he realises at the last instant, that the figure has already moved aside as if it already knew where the attack would be, and his attack soars harmlessly past where it was standing. (Total Attack 29)
"They taught me to see, I can see everything. But you're not important, the one who serves must fall first"
and with that the figure moves again, provoking an attack of opportunity from Skor but again its already moved away from the attack before Skor has finished his swing (Total Attack 30), its steps still wrong, covering twice the ground it should it moves to Taslia and prepares to strike, seeing this Taslia unleashes her dimensional anchor, but as the green ray leaves her hand, Talia becomes aware the creature has already moved out of the way (Total Attack 15). Lochan shoots his arrow (Total Attack 35,46,45), which splits into 3 as it flies at the creature but without even turning it's attention away from Taslia the creature steps out of the way of the arrows and they fly harmlessly past.
And with that the creature makes its attack, striking out at Taslia with a balled fist that connects with a sickening crunch, her robes absorbed a little of the mighty blow but it still makes more impact than a normal human has a right to, (17 damage) and with that mere instant of contact Taslia feels herself pulled outside of space and time, everywhere and everywhen becoming but a single instant and her mind although strong, buckles partially under the pressure (Will Save 30 (Pass), 1 widom damage), before she finds herself back in reality, even as the creatures fist opens and curls around her grabbing her, Taslia struggles against the creature, but it has impossible strength for its frame and it seems to know her movements before she does ( 32 to resist the grapple, fail) and Taslia finds herself in the once-human-things grasp, as it crushes her with impossible strength, her enchanted robes providing a little protection from the things grasp, (18 damage) and she once more finds herself pulled outside reality, as the bombardment starts again, as her mind cracks more under the relentless pressure of everything (Will Save 42 (Pass), 3 Wisdom Damage), before she returns to reality.
To those watching, when the creature's blow connects with Taslia she seems to blur like it is before flickering back to a more solid appearance.
"Do you see now ? Do you understand the lie ? Why it must be ripped down ? Do you see why you follow the lie ? "
