"Or a possible unrelated action was struck hard because Celestia is on high alert," Cresiel muses, "That may be a longer term difficulty, or there are angles and reasons we cannot see."

"It may be what was there was valuable enough to provoke it," Xandra says, "We don't know. Let us look forward instead of backwards."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

"There's no sense in worrying." Moore agrees. "We will just continue to bring hope to those in need."

Anastasia

Well done on that one. Give me another d100 as you wait.

Done and done. Perhaps only 2 minutes pass before you get another message, another portal. 'On Lightning, a celestial delegation in peaceful contact with the Sha'azim Storm Lord has been abducted. Find them on plane and discern where they have been taken if not. Hurry.'

Well, some of them are immune to electricity...

Moore goes through the portal immediately!

Anastasia

"Hold on," Cresiel says, "Do we need wardings against electricity or protections?"

"Better to be safe than sorry." Moore says.

Jetina should have the resources for a Mass Energy Immunity for Electricity.

Anastasia

Thus it's done and cast.

It's all black clouds, dancing lightning and the scent of ozone. Lightning crackles all around - up and down, side to side, in loops and more. Everywhere the wrath of the storm erupts, great cascades of it going everywhere. You stand on a solid ground - here a tower of solid iron is ahead, constantly crackling with electricity as it's struck. A street is behind you - some sort of city, though the thick clouds are everywhere, obscuring visibility.

Moore casts Hindsight! Perhaps he will get a sense of the diplomats whereabouts!

Using the days version of Hindsight. Has anyone been here recently?!

Anastasia

You see it.

A planetar assisted by devas, several hound archons and a handful of lantern archons. They are just leaving the tower when it happens. A tearing in the world around them, the warriors coming. Figures of steel, construct and golem like. Dozens pour in at once - from the portals, from within the ground, a fewrushing in from outside of your field of vision.

The battle is short, ugly - and with tactical surprise, the celestials fall. Not a one is visibly slain, instead subdued and taken away, taken away and gone, out into the lightning-caressed streets beyond this.

"They were abducted." Moore says with a grimace.

"Now, to find them." He turns to go the way his visions saw them go.

So the idea from here will basically be to go, lets say a block or two, use Hindsight and keep following them. Should've warded your constructs!!!

This will hopefully lead us in some direction unless all the constructs teleport off or something.

Anastasia

There's no roar of thunder.

Lightning but no thunder. Crackles, bursts - but no thunder. You can talk at a normal volume, even as electricity gushes through all of you, a passing bolt.

"Stay in a defensive formation and protect Moore," Cresiel commands, "We don't know if enemies may assault us or interfere."

"Wise, I foresee danger," Xandra says, taking Moore's left flank as Cresiel flies ahead of him. Jetina goes for the right flank and Kaja the rear.

"There's definitely something unpleasant here." Moore says. "Let's find it."

Continuing as above.
