Error 404: Heaven not found.
Ghastly screeches rang all over the battlefield that seemed more like a one sided massacre, the abominable arachnids screaming in confusion as its own brethren began tearing into each other, while others were dispatched by the dozens with a single, fell swoop. Prying into the minds of the spiders bore Something a sliver of information - for a moment, she'd be able to clearly make out their strands of consciousnesses leading directly to a singular, 'command centre' of sorts. A looming, overwhelming presence of something far larger and, perhaps far more sinister than mere drones of a measly level 45. The spider 'general' would only be revealed for a mere moment before that connection was abruptly cut.
The drones had suddenly been severed from the hive - in order to prevent Something's potential infiltration from bearing any more fruit, the 'commander', which evidently possessed some relatively high degree of intelligence, had made the tactical decision to leave the drones for dead. The sudden removal from the swarm was seen in the drones as the remaining spiders suddenly ceased their fruitless assault, and froze in place as they began to make some sort of confused, purring noises. Most were just sitting ducks now, and the remaining ones that still fought were now doing so in a disorderly and disoriented manner that made swatting them aside even more of a walk in the park.
That was one problem brushed aside.
With Acles and Alishia high in the sky, the surrounding land became much easier to survey despite the thick, necrotic mist that seemed to plague the area. Even five-hundred meters high in the sky, the surrounding land was a lifeless waste as far as the eye could possibly see. The density of dead trees suggested the area to have once been a vast forest, which had clearly fallen victim to the necrotic mist. Far in the distance, the area surrounding the Phantomhaunt Bonespire was perhaps surprising. Build around the dreadful dungeon was a town of sorts. A large area around the spire was enclosed by tall, stone walls, and inside was a settlement resembling that of a generic, human town not uncommon in fantasy settings. Mostly wooden and stone buildings, in stark contrast to the macabre, bone-wrought spire that sat at the centre of the town. Light was coming from the area as well, meaning that it was likely still inhabited. There were people moving around the streets, but the distance made it a bit hard to make out the race, though the inhabitants were definitely humanoid.
Then, Dolce and Rosa, in their infinite wisdom, surmised that the most likely method to fixing their problems was to blow the bonespire away. Normally, in Yggdrasil, firing anything at a dungeon wouldn't result in any damage whatsoever, as the structures and walls were generally set to be invulnerable. The spear of pure arcane energy zipped right past Alishia, causing a loud whistling sound as it cut through the air itself, headed for a direct crash-course toward the centre of the bonespire.
What occurred next would a bit difficult for the group to observe, save for Alishia and Acles who were flying. The group would be able to sense an immense volume of magic, before the spear just... disappeared. Before the spear could make contact with the spire, an odd-looking undead, that did not resemble any found in Yggdrasil seemingly manifested out of the mist. It held its skeletal arms outwards, tearing open a pitch-black hole in the air that swallowed the spear entirely. A Tenth-Tier spell: Void Maw. Then, its deathly stare fell upon Alishia for a moment, looking the woman down for a moment before it disappeared into thin air, just as it had came.
