Next time, the Gazebo!

Orhan 3 Day 50 TE 6065

We go! Oathar has Imre generate a large pile of WayBread. Then he gives the WayBread to some smuggler friends he may or may not employ. They smuggle the party to the Isle of Fire after some negotitations.

We head towards the island. Actually, we head towards the wrong island as the smugglers don't really get much call for the Isle fo Fire so mistook it for something else. As we approach, we see a shipwreck with bodies. We turn into birds and invisible and fly up the cliffs. Well, except for Imre, who turned into an albatross and gets caught in the rigging.

We fly up to the inner courtyard of the high temple and land near the gazebo. It immediately wakes. It says, "Ha! I sense you intruders." Some priests look around and scramble away (since they can't see us). "NONE SHALL PASS!"

It says, "Pitiful wretches. Turn back now if you wish to live?" We taunt it and think to entertain it. It invites us to try!

He takes us into his realm and we start singing!

Oathar tells the Gazebo the tale of the Chosen One highlighting the parts where Agothu show up and make people crazy.

Haeraan tells him of the slave miners of Kelfours Landing and the Lugraki overlords brought to make their lives better.

We continue in this vein telling tales of treachery and irony and finally, the gazebo laughs itself to death.

We get in through the doors and find ourselves in a golden antechamber.

The 10 temple guards attack. They pull out flaming maces and attack. They are AT 18, DB 75. They are even enemies of the Empire. Imre hates these guys, since they are of his corrupt order, so he just cuts loose at the very beginning starting with Mass Disruptions!

Only 6 remain in the second round (2 stunned) and we attack again! Imre scares one off, Kyrik chops, and the fight goes on. We slay, and then head on.

We arrive in the Inner Sanctum!

Oathar stands before Nynaku! "Nynaku of Charon, good evening. As a duly authorized representative of the city, county, and state of SelKai, I hereby order you to cease and desist any and all supernatural activity in this or any nearby parallel dimensions."

Meanwhile, people pray like mad! Valris and Cay and Eissa show up.

Haeraan gets the Rianne hotline. His prayer will be answered in the order it was received. He sacrifices the helm of leadership and then Rianne shows up.

Nynaku and the Four Gods engage in primal combat. Inconceivable energies fly around the room. Primal shields rise and fall!

The battle of minions commences!

We attack his priests! Imre pulls the Voriig Kye scroll and casts Mass Unmind! 9 of the 10 get unminded! But just because they have no minds doesn't mean they get to live. Alynn, Kyrik, and Haeraan slay among the unminded priests! Oathar casts lightning bolts around!

15 of 50 points of holiness activated!

Then more priests arrive with more guards! Imre casts Mass Black Channels! Imre kills 5! We attack the others! Oathar puts a death cloud at Nynaku's feet!

Haeraan casts Organized Chaos! Madness ensues! We fight on! One of the priests sacrifices himself.

–46 of 50 points of holiness activated!

We fight on!

10 of 50 points of holiness activated!

We fight on! Imre uses the last of the Mana Beans on a Mass Black Channels! No mana beans remain!

57 of 50 points of holiness activated!

Victory is ours! We shoot him with bubbleguns while the gods hold them! We bubble him! The dark god takes one round per bubble gun, but those four rounds are enough to toss him in the laen prison!!!

Nunaku is cut off from his priests who flee and die!

The trembling earth quake stopm and we breath a sigh of relief!

Nynaku is captured! Eissa turns to Imre and says CLEANSE THE ISLAND!

We each get the option to take up the roll of Chancellor within your churches. Chancellor's can be supported Primally! We take it!
