"The attack was very sudden, at the hight of the day's festivities. Really, it seems like a perfect sneak attack. Wait until you're foe is distracted with something else, then hit them hard and fast. We don't know for sure and likely won't unless we investigate the wardstone personally, but one of the last things I remember seeing was the Pike exploding. That, and the presence of Khorramzedah within Mendev make me certain the wardstone is gone." Anevia takes over the <s>exposition</s> story from there. "Terendelev was the silver dragon who defended the city. She clashed with the Stormlord many times, and while she was not always victorious, the two were an even match and she never let him take the city. This time we were not so lucky. The balor attacked her immediately with murder in his heart. She used her magic to save us from plunging to our deaths before she died. Some of her scales also fell into the tunnel with use and they seem to have some magical power in them. Hannah? Why don't you pass your scale over to Shayuri to look at?" As Shayuri accepts the levitation scale, she gets as strong rush of emotion, and can see a memory that is not her own. [sblock=memory][ATTACH]60015[/ATTACH]The Balor’s drawn face stares down at you as the rifts continue to open up around you, continuing to consume mortal and demon alike, despite the fact that you’ve used your magic to save as many souls as possible. Both fire and lightning lick your face and burn at your wings. “I bet you thought you had beat me for good? Joke’s on you then dragon. Now, your city belongs to to me and soon all of the wardstones will burn. Of course, you won’t live to see it, because your head belongs to me too!” The Storm King’s mighty sword comes down one last time, blazing with vorpal fire.[/sblock]Eventually the dwarf seems to tire himself of shouting profanities and falls into silence. Medjai and Jorgun's watches pass easily, and there are no disturbances as you wait out what must be the night and early morning. [sblock=occ] So I had an entire post written up, but then it got eaten by the board gremlins. Sigh. On the plus side for you guys and things picking up again, Invisible Castle loves you right now, I didn't think you'd make it through the night without random encounters but you did.Minor point, but could I get a perception check from anyone who cares to make one, keeping in mind that most of you will be asleep? Don't worry, this isn't going to be Shax jumping out in the middle of the night and shouting BOO! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> [/sblock]</blockquote>
