"You don't wanna do that." responded Jester, as she drew a cylinder shaped object from one of her thighs. "They pop like grapes. He'd feel pain for a few seconds, then he'd pass out." She held it up, pressing a red button on its top, before flinging it down the hall. "Attach the cables to his...
As the group made their preparations, Rebecca finished up her dealings with the dead. One of the Konstantinovs spoke up as she turned to the vampiric assassins. Of course, it was Zehra. She had managed to survive the battle, though with now rapidly healing wounds in different places across her...
They've wired the plant to explode, using bundles of C4 and whatever fuel remained in the tanks. They had planned this from the start. Lure everyone in, and decimate the xeno and human forces here in one massive blast. We had been told that we were simply guarding the facility until the ships...
As Camille finished, another voice joined into the conversation. It seemed the Saint had reawakened, shaking her head as she recovered from her unconscious state. "Aleister? I remember you from the summit." she said, standing carefully from her chair. "If you're here... then the gods have deemed...
Well, this is it. Try not to get shot to pieces, Sam.
Sam said a silent prayer, before charging up the stairs with the rest of Patrol 2. Adam was close behind, keeping his head down as he actually couldn't do anything except hide and follow behind them.
The moment Sam passed through the...
She moved quickly through the debris and rubble, hopping over wrecked tables and couches. Close behind, now coming through the stairwell door, were mercenaries. Armed to the teeth and ready to open up on her. And they did, a few shots zipping by Jester as she darted about.
What she was looking...
The moments following their rise from the dining hall's table were almost like a blur to Seith. Half due to him being partially drunk, and the other half due to how violent things became once the Dark Lord heard his master's last name. What could he even do? This was literally the Lord of...
Seith slowly tilted his head to look at Voyka. "...You sound exactly like one of my old associates back in Ilberynn. Its almost uncanny." he responded, a hint of anger surging forth behind the last few words. "She lead the push that had me cast out. I'd tell you to go drown yourself in a river...
"I don't trust them." responded Seith, "I use them when needed. I want to obtain their knowledge, as I am a man of learning. Perhaps, should I learn enough, I shall be able to use Chaos itself to aid Lady Sharyx and the rest of you. Maybe kill a few gods and kings along the way."
He then...
"Extensive experience." responded Seith, "One does not study and learn the ways of Chaos without conversing and involving themselves with its followers." He took a sip of his wine before continuing. "Most of them, if not all, are quite insane. It seems to be a common trait derived from the Chaos...
Cassandra's smile quickly faded. Yeah, he still hates me. "...Understood." she responded. Eventually, while Aleister walked away, Cassandra forced herself to her feet. The burns were healing quickly, but she'd need new clothes. One or two of the Thralls had been wearing some clothing that seemed...
Seith sipped some of the wine he had poured into a cup, his head tilted as though he were looking in his master's direction. The apple comment was true; He had watched her peel an apple in midair with her sword. A tasty snack on the road. He was about to respond, before Voyka continued speaking...
My, my! The witch queen is a bold one! Openly flirting with some, while outright insulting others. I guess with her status, she's earned the right to. Not a good idea, though, for someone desperate for allies.
Seith watched as Alexandra finally approached and spoke to Sharyx, with Seith's...
As she finished the process, she eventually breathed a sigh and looked up to Sebastian's face. "There... you should have feeling in that finger just like before. Don't worry, you're not going to turn. We got to it almost immediately, so there's no chance that the infection had set in proper."...
Soon enough, the light in the room began to fade. The grim aftermath of Rebecca's attack was visible to all, with piles of ash scattered across the room along with charred corpses and blinded, writhing thralls. The supernatural members of the group slowly emerged from their cover, looking about...
A few more mercs arrived, but instead of moving for the hole in the wall that Kane was focusing on, they opted for the double doors at the end of the conference room. As they neared the doors, the doors soon came flying open. Jester was on the move, bolting through them with what appeared to be...
The group's strength and numbers was dwindling fast, as there seemed to be no end to the volume of vampires, ghouls, and thralls entering the room. This was going south quite quickly. Rebecca, however, soon began to develop a plan. It would involve the use of a high level divine spell, but one...
Seith Voidsinger
In times like these, it's always nice to simply observe. Take in the grand scope of things, like the environment and others within it around you. Seith Voidsinger had only heard of Lohrsahr over the years, through the other Anuraii of Ilberynn before his exile and after from...
Riberta and Cassandra had waded halfway through the room, caught between the long outer tables and the center room length one as they continued their killing spree. By this point, Cassandra was audibly laughing. She hadn't cut loose like this in quite a long time, and was taking every chance she...
"Thought I'd ask. Anyway, I think you'll love this next part." she soon said, flashing him a grin as she walked past his seat into the back of the ship.
