Mirajane is at half hp.

[Anastasia]

In the aftermath, all that remains is the Nessian's spear. The room is completely charred, stone melted in places and little drips of lava falling from from the walls. But the party endures, alive if wounded.

Free act.

[Corwin]

"Mirajane, heal us," Jaela says as she picks up the massive spear and then makes it disappear into her gauntlet.

Her daughter obediently tries to call upon her magic...

8:32 PM <Rin> roll 1d20+22 CL
8:32 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 23 > [d20=1]

...but fails!

"Well, keep trying as we go on," Jaela says with a shrug, heading into the next door leading up!

[Anastasia]

As Jaela goes to the next door, the building shakes. It's a soft but notable shake, a few multicolored sparks as various spells flash into visibility.

[Corwin]

'Mom?' she tries her telepathy, in hope it's working again now after whatever her group was attempting to break up the crypt succeeded. 'What's going on?'

She pauses for a moment, glancing over at Mirajane.

[Anastasia]

Spellcraft, Mirajane.

[Corwin]

8:40 PM <Rin> roll 1d20
8:40 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 10 > [d20=10]

+32+15 (divine insight) for 57

[Anastasia]

Mirajane can tell something just broke apart the underlying magics here - and with a slight shudder, a vision of destruction and ruin momentarily overtakes her, along with a feeling of dread.

[Corwin]

"Magic itself is broken," Mirajane murmurs in a tone of fearful awe reserved for such events. "We don't have much time!"

Jaela nods to herself. "That's it, then. Mirima, take charge. Get Moonlight and Mirajane outside, and have Mirajane plane shift you back to the Aurora. I'll go after the others and brings them back. Let's go!"

She doesn't immediately rush off, however, spending a moment on breaking the wall she had put up for their protection to let the others leave the crypt.

[Anastasia]

The group hurries back to that wall. Magic shatters around them, becoming visible as it breaks apart. Empty ghosts come flying from the general direction that Adrian and friends went, past them by the dozens and presumably out of the fortress. The entire thing is shaking violently now, fast and unrelenting.

Go ahead and make your attempt to break the wall. -4 to attack rolls due to conditions.

[Corwin]

Gae Dioltas reopens the hole in the wall!

8:52 PM <Rin> roll 1d20+41+1+2+5+3-21-4
8:52 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 41 > [d20=14]
8:52 PM <Rin> roll 3d8+84+9+9+21+9+63+2d6
8:53 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 221 > [d8=5,6,5][d6=4,6]

[Anastasia]

The stone wall shatters, as the ghosts suddenly increase tenfold. A blur of ghosts, making everything difficult to see as they fly out all around you. But the wall's down, even as the fortress shakes again, magic bursting around the party.

"What did they DO!?" Moonlight yelps as she dodges a blast of spellfire by her head.

Everyone has concealment due to the ghost flood. Visibility's rapidly going downhill.

[Corwin]

8:57 PM <Rin> roll 1d20+22 CL
8:57 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 25 > [d20=3]
8:57 PM <Rin> roll 1d20+22 CL
8:57 PM <Serith> Rin roll for Serith < 38 > [d20=16]

Mirajane continues her attempts to restore them, and succeeds just after Jaela clears the way! And, hopefully, clears a nicely-sized area near the exit to see more.

[Anastasia]

The party can see the way is full of ghosts flying out. Empty ghosts everywhere, gushing from the quivering crypt by the thousands. They're flying off into the emptiness of Vacuum, unrelenting and unstopping.
