219.5 Seira, Demedais and the Sharran Attack

[Corwin]

[20:33] <Kotono> ---------
[20:38] <Kotono> It's the middle of the night. Demedais is meditating in his room, reflecting on Helm's teachings as is his habit.  There is a strange thing that occurs - noise. Noise? There's hurried footsteps carrying all the way from the front of the temple. In a loud voice, "S-S-Sir Demedais!" A man's voice calls at the top of his lungs. "Help!"
06[20:39] * Demedais nods and with a word calls his armor to him, grabbing his sword and tapping his shield as he sprints out toward the source of the voice!
[20:41] <Kotono> A guard is lying on one of the pews, father Ceiar already there and murmuring words of succor. "Help...shadows...dark beings...temple of Mystra...." Gasping and coughing for air, "We're under attack!"
[20:41] <Demedais> "Alright." Demedais nods, before looking to see if anyone else is around quickly.
[20:42] <Kotono> The temple is rousing, a few priests already poking their head out.
06[20:44] * Demedais gestures to one of the priests. "Awaken Eudard, Seira, Pollyanna and Oberuth; tell them to hurry to the aid of the Temple of Mystra. I must make haste there." With that, he calls his armor off before quickly dashing off to the Temple of Mystra.
[20:44] <Demedais> OOC: Put the armor back on once I'm about 50 ft away
06[20:47] * Seira doesn't stop along the way!
[20:50] <Kotono> Seira and Demedais meet enroute! Soldiers are rushing to the Temple of Mystra with them! As they reach there, they find a scene of battle! The front gates are being held by Antenora and a furious dire tiger! Behind them are Shankar and several priests, casting and invoking powerful magic! Several withered guards lie littered around, dead. Trying to get in are seven creatures - shadowy creatures, hissing with powerful rage! Behind them are t
[20:50] <Kotono> shadowy creatures, hissing with powerful rage! Behind them are two massive, terrible horrors! They are humanoid and pure black, cold whirling around their hands! (More)
03[20:51] * Kotono changes topic to 'Nightwalkers(20)>Antenora(19)>Shadows(16)>Jessica=Tiger(15)=Priests(12)'
[20:53] <Kotono> Seira and Demedais know them all too well, for they opposed one before! A nightwalker, a shadow-creature that lied within the golgatha of skulls and bones within the ruins. OOC - Roll intiaitive and I'll integrate you two in? It's at the top of the ground. You're 30ft away from the nightwalkers, and 60 ft from the shadows.

[21:00] <Kotono> OOC: Oh wait, you idd.
[21:00] <Kotono> OOC: Dur.
01[21:00] <Seira> OOC: I started from the worst!
[21:03] <Kotono> The cone of flames gushes past the Nightwalkers! They shield themselves, motes of cold slowing the advance of gushing flames! The shadows around Antenora and the tiger are duly scorched, flickering and sizzling fromt he flames! One of the nightwalkers turns to Seira, hissing! In tones of whispering cold, "Die...!" A cone of cold erupts around Seira as it glides ten feet up to get in range, followed by a miasma of pure darkness! OOC - Ref sa
[21:03] <Kotono> followed by a miasma of pure darkness! OOC - Ref savef or the cone and then a fort save for unholy blight.

01[21:05] <Seira> "That's right!" Seira calls at them defiantly, weathering the attacks. "Your existence has come to its pitiful end! Struggle all you like, the outcome won't change!"
[21:05] <Kotono> Seira weaves away from the blistering cone of cold, all while she weathers a storm of unholy darkness! She shduders, but maintains intacta nd only minorly hurt! The other nightwalker gushes a cone of cold out, not harming the shadows but endangering Antenora and the Tiger, followed by an unholy blight at Antenora!

[21:06] <Kotono> roll 1d20+21 SR

06[21:09] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+12 tiger and gets 15." [1d20=3]
[21:09] <Kotono> The tiger is badly frozen by the cone, while Antenora dodges nad endures the worst of the abuse! She hisses out loud, staggering! In retort she lays into the shadows around her!
[21:10] <Kotono> roll 1d20+21 (-1str, +2 FS 6/8)
06[21:10] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+21 (-1str, +2 FS 6/8) and gets 29." [1d20=8]

[21:10] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[21:10] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 47." [1d100=47]
01[21:11] <Seira> "I'll deal with the shadows!" Seira calls out, upon seeing Antenora's attack. "They are no threat! Focus on the Nightwalkers!"
[21:11] <Kotono> Antenora holds the line, trying to stopthe shadows from advancing! Even as she blazes with holy ferver, the ghostly composition of the shadows eludes her! "Dammit!" She curses, as the shadows assail her and the tiger, moaning out wordless sounds...ones that are far to fmailiar with Seira! "Do that! I can't let them get to the priests!"
[21:12] <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 touch anty
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+6 touch anty and gets 11." [1d20=5]

[21:12] <Kotono> roll 1d8
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8 and gets 7." [1d8=7]
[21:15] <Kotono> The tiger is touched as Antenora defends herself successfully! It's body withers and becomes less, drained!  Three others fly above, going towards the priests! Jessica winces, "Fall back," she calls, the tiger turning back into a statue as Jessica draws her rapier! OOC - Deme. You're 30ft away from the nightwalker onthe grond, and 30/10 ft up from the flying one that went after Seira.
06[21:17] * Demedais grunts, rushing the grounded nightwalker from the flanks to try and keep this nightwalker occupied, trusting in his armor to protect him if and when Seira breathes fire on the crowd again! OOC: Assuming it can AoO me, waiting on that.
[21:17] <Kotono> OOC - It can, yes, it has reach.
[21:18] <Kotono> As Demedais gets close, the Nightwalker lashes out as his defenses are down!
[21:18] <Kotono> roll 1d20+24
06[21:18] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+24 and gets 36." [1d20=12]

[21:19] <Kotono> roll 2d6+16
06[21:19] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6+16 and gets 20." [2d6=1, 3]
[21:19] <Kotono> Demedais is struck in the chest, his heart going numb from the unholy, unliving contact! OOC - Continue.
[21:20] <Demedais> roll 1d20+22 (+1 Haste, +2 Charge, +6 Smite, -4 PA)
06[21:20] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+22 (+1 Haste, +2 Charge, +6 Smite, -4 PA) and gets 36." [1d20=14]

06[21:21] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d6+22 (blade acquires ability to strike DR next round, is holy this round due to smite) and gets 30." [2d6=3, 5]
[21:23] <Kotono> Demedais cuts into the shadow-stuff of the Nightwalker! He finds it resistant, tearing into it with all his might! Even as he does, Shankar's voice is heard! Presenting his holy symbol out, calling on the power of Mystra!
[21:24] <Kotono> roll 1d20+9 (+4 sacred bonus due to Orb of Peace, +2 Eagle's Splendor)
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+9 (+4 sacred bonus due to Orb of Peace, +2 Eagle's Splendor) and gets 12." [1d20=3]
[21:26] <Kotono> But the evil stands firm, even in the face of Mystra's magic! The other priests chant and invoke magic around! While most of the others are protections and the like, a pair of searing rays of light go out for two of the shadows creeping around!
[21:26] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 touch AC
06[21:26] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 touch AC and gets 10." [1d20=3]
[21:26] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 touch AC
06[21:26] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 touch AC and gets 27." [1d20=20]

[21:26] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[21:26] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 19." [1d100=19]
[21:27] <Kotono> Yet the rays are lost int he darkness around! As this happens...
[21:27] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7
06[21:27] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 and gets 11." [1d20=4]
03[21:28] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(27)>Nightwalkers(20)>Antenora(19)>Shadows(16)>Jessica=Tiger(15)>Demedais(13)>Priests(12)>Pollyanna(11)'

[21:28] <Kotono> Pollyanna runs down a side street, bow in hand and still in her nightgown! Meanwhile, you can glimpse a pegasus coming in the air, a bulky man driving it on, a sword in his free hand! OOC - SEira.
06[21:29] * Seira calls upon Waukeen's blessing to fly back well out of reach, drawing her sword. It is but a feint, however, as she calls upon a supercharged fireball to blossom amongst the shadows, hoping to catch one of the nightwalkers off guard with it as well!
01[21:29] <Seira> roll 1d20+16 tumble
06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+16 tumble and gets 36." [1d20=20]

06[21:30] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 and gets 22." [1d20=11]
01[21:30] <Seira> OOC: DC23
01[21:31] <Seira> "Fall back!" Seira calls over to the priests. "You've held them off long enough!"
[21:33] <Kotono> The Nightwalkers are both scorched, Demedais feeling fire lick at him but not quite reach him! It warms him oddly, as if chasing away what is in front of him! The shadows aren't effected, gliding through it harmlessly! Commander Oberuth spurs his steed on, coming well above the nightwalker before hopping off and diving down right at it, sword looking to impale it besides Demedais! The shadow lashes out as he does this, however!
[21:33] <Kotono>  The shadow lashes out as he does this, however!
[21:33] <Kotono> roll 1d20+24 something has CR and it's useful? Go fig
06[21:33] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+24 something has CR and it's useful? Go fig and gets 43." [1d20=19]

[21:34] <Kotono> roll 4d6
06[21:34] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d6 and gets 22." [4d6=5, 6, 6, 5]
[21:35] <Kotono> Oberuth's blade grazes through the Nightwalker, sliding down as he lands heavily besides Demedais! He looks intact, however, only a bit brushed even by the blow to his side as he fell! OOC - Nightwalkers.
[21:36] <Kotono> "Hmph...the odds turn worse..." The flying nightwalker hisses, "Kill as many as you can in the name of the Dark Goddess!" It then vanishes away into a pool of twisting air!
01[21:37] <Seira> "Loser!"
[21:37] <Kotono> The other, surrounded by Oberuth and Demedais, looks on at them with cold fury, "We will meet again, so that I will wither the flesh from your bones!" It vanishes as well, the dimensions itself twisting around them! OOC - Antenora's up.
03[21:37] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(27)>Oberuth(21)>Antenora(19)>Shadows(16)>Jessica=Tiger(15)>Demedais(13)>Priests(12)>Pollyanna(11)'

06[21:38] * Seira seethes at this indignity.
[21:38] <Kotono> Antenora defends herself amid the shadows as she strikes out, trying to thin the numbers! "Cowards," she calls even as she fights on!
[21:39] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17 (-1 str, -4 fighting defensively, +2 FS 5/8)
06[21:39] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 (-1 str, -4 fighting defensively, +2 FS 5/8) and gets 27." [1d20=10]

[21:39] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[21:39] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 38." [1d100=38]
[21:40] <Kotono> Antenora glows with sacred power, thrusting at each shadow! But each one weaves and whirls out of the way, as airy as the wind itself!  The shadows keen out, three of them on her and trying to touch her!
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 1d20+6
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+6 and gets 12." [1d20=6]

[21:42] <Kotono> Two of the clerics are withered and reduced, but survive the touch! The last three go back, going for Demedais and Oberuth!
[21:42] <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 Deme touch
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+6 Deme touch and gets 15." [1d20=9]

06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8 str damage and gets 4." [1d8=4]
[21:44] <Kotono> Antenora withers as she is touched, seeming to sag underher armor! Her breathing becomes labored, as Demedais feels the same thing on a lesser scale! Jessica goes to help one of the touched priests in the meanwhile!
[21:44] <Kotono> roll 1d20+13

[21:45] <Kotono> Jessica fights quickly, able to stab one of the shadows! It's body seems to flash white with the silvered blow, but it's not enough to dissolve it's unliving mockery of human form! OOC - Deme.
06[21:48] * Demedais lets loose on the three shadows in front of him, focusing first on the one that attacked him before moving on to other opponents as he downs the first ones!

06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d6+10 cleave damage and gets 12." [2d6=1, 1]

[21:51] <Kotono> Demedais hacks and cuts through the shadows, sending two of them back to oblivion! The second follows with the disposal of the third, rended apart!  The priests fall back, defending themselves! Even as he moves, Shankar again calls on the power of Mystra!
[21:52] <Kotono> roll 1d20+9
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+9 and gets 22." [1d20=13]

06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6+7+5 and gets 19." [2d6=6, 1]
[21:54] <Kotono> The shadows around shudder and twist! They blaze with silver fire a moment before fading away into nothingness! Screams are heard - horrible screams in forgotten languages, Seira knowing enough of them to understand the word 'Shar'. OOC - That was clutch if a round late. Free act.
[21:56] <Kotono> OOC - Strke.
[21:58] <Kotono> The shadows around two of the priests retreat back, fleeing as fast as they can! Pollyanna, meanwhile, approaches and then fires on one of the shadows around Antenora!

[21:58] <Kotono> roll 1d20+12

[21:59] <Kotono> Two flaming arrows slam into two shadows, turning them into ashy dust! Antenora is so relieved! OOC - Seira. Two fleeing shadows, one on Anty, one on the priests.
06[22:00] * Seira gnashes her teeth together, causing ghostly jaws to appears within range of the shadows. And her lovely creations don't wait on an order, instantly seeking out their prey!
01[22:00] <Seira> Meanwhile, she flies back towards the melee to provide support -- or an alternate target. Her dagger is entrusted to Lagann, with a mental call to eradicate the vile things plaguing their city!
01[22:00] <Seira> roll 3d6 shadow 1
06[22:00] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d6 shadow 1 and gets 9." [3d6=1, 4, 4]
01[22:00] <Seira> roll 3d6 shadow 2
06[22:00] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d6 shadow 2 and gets 8." [3d6=3, 1, 4]

06[22:00] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d6 shadow 3 and gets 12." [3d6=5, 5, 2]
01[22:00] <Seira> roll 1d6 shadow 4, may Lagann kill it?
06[22:00] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d6 shadow 4, may Lagann kill it? and gets 1." [1d6=1]
01[22:00] <Seira> OOC: DC22
03[22:01] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(27)>Oberuth(21)>Antenora(19)>Shadows(16; 3 left)>Jessica(15)>Demedais(13)>Priests(12)>Pollyanna(11)'
[22:02] <Kotono> The one Jessica stabbed is bitten again, dying! The other two are mauled and munched up, chewed into kibble but surviving! Meanwhile, a crude sword flies out of Seira's sheath, stabbing at a remaining shadow!
[22:02] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 and gets 27." [1d20=20]
[22:02] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 16." [1d100=16]
[22:02] <Kotono> But nothing comes of it! OOC - OBeruth.
[22:02] <Kotono> Oberuth grimaces a moment, before charging forward at the one shadow still on Antenora, swiping at it!
[22:03] <Kotono> roll 1d20+21 (-1 str, -2 PA
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+21 (-1 str, -2 PA and gets 25." [1d20=4]
[22:03] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 25." [1d100=25]
[22:03] <Kotono> But his sword passes through the shadow without harm! Antenora turns, sagging down, striking out at the last shadow again!
[22:04] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17 (-5 str, +2 FS 4/8)
06[22:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 (-5 str, +2 FS 4/8) and gets 19." [1d20=2]
[22:04] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[22:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 59." [1d100=59]
[22:04] <Kotono> roll 1d8+2+1d6
06[22:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+2+1d6 and gets 11." [1d8=3][1d6=6]
03[22:04] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(27)>Oberuth(21)>Antenora(19)>Shadows(16; 2 left)>Jessica(15)>Demedais(13)>Priests(12)>Pollyanna(11)'
[22:05] <Kotono> Already injured from Seira's teeth and fire, the shadow tears away into nothingness! The last two shadows continue to flee! OOC - Deme, you're up. The last two shadows are booking it away and into the sky like it's the end of the world and they aren't invited.
06[22:09] * Demedais grimaces, before closing in and gesturing at the shadow farthest from Seira in an attempt to obliterate it entirely by turning it!
[22:10] <Kotono> OOC: Charisma check, +4 sacred bonus since your'e on grounds.
[22:12] <Demedais> OOC: Strike, I severely misread how turning worked.
06[22:12] * Demedais grimaces and looks to Seira. "They're in the air. That's your domain - let 'em have it!"
01[22:12] <Seira> "Gladly," Seira returns. "There is no escape!"
01[22:13] <Seira> roll 3d6
01[22:13] <Seira> roll 3d6
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d6 and gets 11." [3d6=3, 6, 2]
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d6 and gets 16." [3d6=6, 4, 6]
01[22:13] <Seira> OOC: DC still 22
[22:15] <Kotono> OOC - I think I forgot the saves last round, tangentially. Also, Polly'll just hold in case you fail and then shoot.
[22:15] <Kotono> roll 1d20+5
[22:15] <Kotono> roll 1d20+5
06[22:15] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+5 and gets 24." [1d20=19]
06[22:15] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+5 and gets 8." [1d20=3]
01[22:15] <Seira> OOC: I listed the dc back there as well
[22:15] <Kotono> The teeth tear the fleeing shadows apart, rending them into nothing! Antenora sags down at the end of this, , Jessica going to check a few priests. Commander Oberuth looks about, "What the blazing abyss happened?"
[22:16] <Kotono> OOC - Free act.
[22:16] <Kotono> "Demedais!" Pollyanna approaches, white nightgown fluttering in the summery breeze. "You alright?"
01[22:16] <Seira> "Was there someone with them?!" Seira demands, touching down next to Antenora. "A priestess of Shar?"
[22:16] <Demedais> "Probably an attack from the Sharrans in Kesse." Demedais curses, before looking to Pollyanna. "I am. Thank you for your timely help, you two."
[22:16] <Kotono> Shankar relaxes, the sacred fire arond him dissipating. "It was Mystra's will that you come to oblivion here, shades." he says, approaching the Commander and company. "Thank you for your timely aid."
06[22:17] * Demedais gestures the two toward Antenora and the temple, touching Antenora to try and restore some of the strength to her.
[22:17] <Demedais> roll 1d4
06[22:17] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d4 and gets 1." [1d4=1]
[22:17] <Kotono> Antenora stands up, "Jessica and I noticed them first - we were up late. They came in from the sky and were going to walk right in, but I was able to sound an alarm fast enough and delay them."
[22:18] <Demedais> roll 1d4 restore 2
06[22:18] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d4 restore 2 and gets 4." [1d4=4]
[22:19] <Kotono> Antenora's burden lessens. "Thank Mystra that Antenora barely sleeps," Jessica calls as she helps a drained priest walk into the temple.
[22:19] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11
06[22:19] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 and gets 20." [1d20=9]
01[22:20] <Seira> "Let's canvass Balmuria in case there were more," Seira tells Antenora, barely keeping her snarl in check. "They might have tried this elsewhere, and we're best for scouting."
[22:20] <Kotono> "Mph, Ic an't remember enough. Demedais, do you know if they can teleport innately?" Antenora asks, before taking to the air.
[22:21] <Demedais> "Link us with Message, first - it'll make coordinating easier." Demedais nods. "Pollyanna and I will meet up with Eudard. Commander, will you help Seira and Antenora?"
06[22:21] * Demedais pauses, thinking. "You mean the Nightcrawlers, right?"
01[22:21] <Seira> "I don't have it handy, and it's not useful across the distance, anyway. If we find something, follow the fire."
[22:22] <Demedais> roll 1d20+14 K:R
06[22:22] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+14 K:R and gets 30." [1d20=16]
[22:22] <Kotono> "I'll keep things running," Oberuth says, "Go wake anyone who can detect evil or undead and enlist them for this. Get moving."
[22:24] <Demedais> "They plane jumped." Demedais shakes his head. "Inaccurate, so we can pray they landed facefirst in a plane that'll eat them alive."
01[22:24] <Seira> "The temples, first, and the crypts," Seira says, taking off after Antenora. "Then government buildings. Then the rest of the city, just to be on the safe side. Standard spiral pattern."
[22:24] <Demedais> "But..." Demedais calls after them... "It's restricted to once a day. They may have come in right before midnight so they could leave when things went south."
[22:25] <Kotono> roll 1d20+16
06[22:25] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+16 and gets 34." [1d20=18]
06[22:25] * Demedais then nods to Oberuth. "I'll rouse the temple of Helm and set them up on patrols as well."
[22:26] <Kotono> "Plane Shift is inaccurate because it puts within hundreds of miles of your location, but it sfairly steady within getting you to the same plane. It wouldn't be good for getting to Balmuria fast without other means of quick travel," Antenora lingers back down a moment at that call.
[22:27] <Demedais> "Ah." Demedais shakes his head. "Too bad on that, then. Get searching; we'll scour the ground for 'em." With that, he nods to the entirety of the group assembled, before going with Pollyanna to intercept Eudard and direct the temple.
01[22:27] <Seira> "A Sharran with means of teleportation or shadow walking," Seira tells Antenora. "I'm hoping I'm right, and that they're still here. Waukeen can grant me that small favor, can't she?"
[22:27] <Kotono> "It's worth trying," Antenora agrees, "And hoping."
[22:27] <Kotono> OOCL All of you are basicaly going to be hunting undead and directing said searches?
[22:28] <Demedais> OOC: Pretty much. I don't know Armanda or what she looks like so I'm not reliable searching for her.
[22:30] <Kotono> The night passes on. Balmuria becomes bright - many a torch lit, the darkness of the night held at bay. Several sweeps of detect evil and undead are done, yet no more undeath or notable evil is found. The city seems quiet, at peace. No one matching the description of any of the royals is found, either. Meeting back together three hours later in at the garrison, "Nothing," Commander Oberuth asks Demedais, Seira, Antenora and Eudard. "I'll be
[22:30] <Kotono>  "Nothing," Commander Oberuth asks Demedais, Seira, Antenora and Eudard. "I'll be sending out patrols to search outlying areas at dawn," He stops here to smother a yawn, "In case they're lurking outside of the city."
[22:32] <Demedais> "Alright. I'll request the Temple of Helm keeps a watch as well." Demedais nods a bit wearily. "I'll also do patrols around town and near the Temple of Mystra - that seems to be their main objective here."
[22:33] <Kotono> "It's a religious thing, according to what I've been told. Thechurches of Shar and Mystra don't get along." Holding off another yawn, "If you need rest, go take it. Get healed up as well. If they possess this mobility, they could attack tomorrow night or even during the day, and we need to be prepared."
[22:35] <Kotono> "I went to sleep early," Eduard speaks up here, "I can still go fors everal hours if needed."
[22:35] <Kotono> Antenora inclines her head, "I don't need much sleep, either."
01[22:36] <Seira> "I don't need sleep if it means a chance of killing one of them."
06[22:38] * Demedais nods. "I need little sleep as well. I rested a bit earlier, but not fully."
[22:38] <Kotono> "Alright, if your'e able, then you can aid and lead patrols at dawn." Oberuth instructs, "Be at the stables at daybreak to meet your teams. I'll have assignments and orders waiting there. Dimissed."
06[22:39] * Demedais nods to this and salutes.
01[22:40] <Seira> "Sir," Seira interjects. "Are we capable of distributing sunrods to each team that would patrol the city come nightfall?"
[22:41] <Kotono> "We can," Oberuth agrees, "As well as ample source sof light. I've already ordered for more torches and illumination, to help aid us if shadows come again. They are easy tos ee in bright light."
01[22:42] <Seira> "And this would be useful to alert our watchers, and help raise the alarm."
06[22:42] * Demedais nods in approval at this.
06[22:42] * Seira considers this further. "And holy water. Our men should have that aplenty."
[22:43] <Kotono> "It may not work on shadows, but it's a good weapon to have. They should be instructed to stall and raise alarms over confronting them," Antenora adds.
01[22:45] <Seira> "There is a decent chance," Seira muses. "Better than trying to strike them with a sword lacking in magical enhancements."
[22:46] <Kotono> "Agreed," Eudard murmurs.
[22:46] <Kotono> "Any other suggestions," Oberuth asks.
[22:47] <Demedais> "None that I think of currently." Demedais replies.
01[22:47] <Seira> "Running away if lacking in ways to deal with shadows. Merely dying pointlessly to create yet more shadows serves no one."
