Vanguard (Afina)

[Anastasia]

"It's all spelltraps," Moonlight says, "Fireballs, cold blasts, lightning bolts. Being magically resistant on your level will all but make you immune."

[Ebiris]

"Easy enough. Directions through the maze?"

[Anastasia]

"All left turns," Moonlight says, "I suggest you lead on and trigger all the spells."

[Ebiris]

"Alright lets go then," Afina refreshes her haste spell on herself, Moonlight, Dana, the dogs, and a score of burning aeropolis monks before she leads the way inside at a fast clip.

[Anastasia]

To be clear based on your haste line, you're hasting all of them but it's just the three of you going ahead? Also, formation here?

[Ebiris]

Yeah, the others are just getting hasted because I can hit lots of targets so why not. Formation is Afina--30ft--Dana/Moonlight.

[Anastasia]

Ahead are dark, narrow passages with minimal lightning. Twisting, curving halls with lots of connections and passages to choose from. You barely make it 10ft in before...

<Rei-chan> Kotono rolled : 1d20+9 Miko --> [ 1d20=6 ]{15}

A fireball explodes over you. It doesn't even touch you, fizzling all around your body. Whew. From behind Dana calls, "Feel that one or was it just a fucking love tap?"

[Ebiris]

"Didn't even feel warm," Afina replies, not bothering to waste her time looking for traps and just flying along at a good clip taking every left turn as it becomes available.

[Anastasia]

As you say that, you get a message, 'To all officers: The unknown threat that killed Canderella has tentatively been identified as an assassin devil, also known as a dogai. If you need a refresher on dogai lore, send me a message and it will be provided. It has abilities above that of normal dogai.'

Chance to reply to that then we'll resolve maze-running adventures.

[Ebiris]

"I'm familiar. They rely on invisibility too much, but you could say the same of pixies. Stay sharp both of you," she calls back to Moonlight and Dana, intending to take seriously anything that could kill Canderella so swiftly.

[Anastasia]

"Got it," Moonlight calls, as you race along.

You dodge and endure. A few spheres of acid and cold are weaved around as you lead the way. The maze is a death trap that dares not touch you. You come to a heavy iron door, unmoving and solid. This looks like it. In fact, "That's it," Moonlight says, "Ready to bust some heads?"

[Ebiris]

"Absolutely," Afina says, a green ray of disintegration lancing out from her fingertip to unmake the door that dares to stand in her way!

[Anastasia]

The door crumbles before you. Within is a chamber full of candles. Hundreds of them on the walls, on individual candleholders or on tables about. About this space are erinyes hovering in the air over sitting mortals, who seem to be asleep. Lines of green light pulse from mortal to mortal, making the candlelight flicker green.

"They come..." A dozen voices whisper at once. "They come!"

[Ebiris]
