[QUOTE="gideonpepys, post: 7457032, member: 79141"] [b]Session 59, Part Three - Duel Purpose[/b] When they neared the Danoran flagship, [I]Praepollens Auctoritate[/I], they once again could make out a luminescent figure on her deck. Closer inspection revealed this to be the ghost of Lya Jierre, standing on the prow with her rapier already drawn. As they drew closer, within easy view, she gave them a very respectful salute. Then she tapped on the rail with the tip of her rapier and at this signal, her new ‘pet’ was released from the hold: a mechanical dragon, powered by witchoil. Both she and it took to the air as the two ships closed and landed on the [I]Coaltongue[/I]’s deck in very different fashions: Lya silently, with grace and fluidity as she immediately entered battle; the mechanical dragon crashing like scrap metal from a crane and splashing the deck with necrotic ichor. With impressive ease, Lya took on everyone at once: Korrigan, Quratulain, Rumdoom, Andrei. The others kept their distance or ducked out of sight of the [I]Praepollens[/I]’ defenders who unleashed a barrage of carbine fire. Down below, Uru led the gun crew and augmented their skill with his own. They fired their guns before the enemy, and the enemy was given no chance to respond: their barrage hit the ship’s ammunition stores, destroyed their armaments and sent a huge explosion ripping through the ship. Lya fought on regardless, her rapier flashing hither and thither. The mechanical dragon tried to crush Rumdoom with its enormous, blunt, battering-ram of a head. He blocked the blow, then Lya attacked him too, and when he raised his craghammer to block her, she sawed though its haft. [I]The Hammer of Lost Riders[/I] clattered to the floor! Thurgid, Rumdoom’s caddy, threw him another hammer. He missed with this and moved back. She was almost impossible to hit! After trying to land a very physical curse on Lya, Leon realised he needed to try a different tack. Korrigan made a careful lunge with his holy avenger. He was canny enough to spot Lya’s trick, and avoided landing his blow on Quratulain instead. Then he challenged Lya to single combat in his customary fashion. By now, Admiral Smith had manoeuvred the ship into position to fire at the force-field whenever the unit was able to rid the deck of enemies and gather round the [I]fey portal pad[/I]. Though their ship was crippled, the crew of the [I]Praepollens [/I]was determined to support their leader and threw up ladders and grappling hooks in an old-fashioned attempt to storm aboard. Lauren Cyneburg and her elite Battalion trainees fought them off as best they could. Asrabey and Gale returned just at that moment. She Who Writhes’ bow wave was bearing down on the [I]Coaltongue[/I]. Asrabey planted his feet on the stern and prepared to fight off the kraken. Then Admiral Smith reported the disastrous news that the brand was insufficiently charged to fire any time soon. Leon and Uru teleported to the engine room to see what they could do. … [B] Song for Lya Jierre[/B] [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5H-YlcMSbc[/URL] [B]End of Session[/B] [/QUOTE]
