Without touching the water? Sure.

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Ebiris

Though still it means some kind of woe. What about going down, what's the distance between this room and the one Violet's in and can a line be drawn between them that doesn't go through the styx-channel?

Anastasia

Roughly down by about 40ft then ahead 120ft or so. Or at a sloping diagonal if you want to do it that way, whatever.

'I'm unsure about the defences on the walls and the door, and don't rate our chances of continuing like this without triggering an alarm or making enough noise to alert Violet. However we're now close enough that I can tunnel directly to her within the duration of a time stop so we can attack her directly. I'll prevent any sound from spreading beyond us so you can cast short duration spells before we begin battle,' Alicia sends to the others after weighing up her options.

'Alright,' Antenora agrees, 'Then we'll do this. I'm ready.'

'As am I,' Syala concurs.

'It is time for judgment,' Latha thirds.

Alicia thus ensures no sound travels more than a foot away from the four of them with an effort of divine will....

Chance for people to cast their short duration spells now...

Anastasia

Sure, gimme a sec on those. Do you have any of your own or what you want cast on you?

Ebiris

No extra spells to add here.

Anastasia

Okay.

Antenora will cast opal protection, which is +3 morale AC and saves, as well as mind blank vs evil outsiders. CL 35.

Latha will toss down Celestial Valor, which is +4 sacred for most things, I think you know the drill there by now. CL 35. She'll add Life's Grace as time permits, if anyone needs it.

Syala will give Syala's blessing to everyone but Alicia. That's +10 morale to str/dex/con.

Ready on your mark.

[spoiler]

Power of the huntress (CL 34), +8 enhancement natural armour, +20 competence stealth, +6 init, gains combat reflexes and can't be flat-footed. - These are all somewhat situational or overlap, so apply case by case.

'I'll warp space directly below Syala's feet. Just go down there and you'll end up in the room with Violet below,' Alicia sends before she casts time stop...

[18:16] <@Ebiris> roll 1d4+1
[18:17] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d4+1 --> [ 1d4=4 ]{5}

5 rounds.

Round 1: Swift to go tiny, standard to shoot silver fire in direct line between under Syala's feet and Violet's room, tunnel is needle-thin. Extends 70 feet. Move to go into tunnel.
Round 2: standard to shoot silver fire rest of way to Violet's room. Free to compress space between either end of tunnel. Move to go through into Violet's room. Swift to return to normal size.

3 rounds left to spend depending on what I see now.

Burrowing goes well. On arriving you find two people are here, in a chamber of glass containers of black water, lining the walls. In the center of the room is a simple couch, where a lilitu lies. She looks to be in some agony, face locked in pain.

Standing back, rocking back and forth of her heels, is a beautiful succubus. She is clad in purple light, radiant to look at and with a sense of power and presence to her. It's hard to see her features, everything about her seeming too real, too much.

Reminds her a bit of how everything looked under the Icon of Sensation's influence. Should probably do something about that.

Round 3: Move to stand behind Violet. Free to see what magic she has up...

[18:41] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+37 CL for arcane sight
[18:41] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d20+37 CL for arcane sight --> [ 1d20=2 ]{39}

... probably get nothing meaningful. Standard to cast Seira's arcane thesis.
Round 4: Swift to cast quickened brilliant aura on my sword. Standard to cast Latha's sunmantle.
Round 5: Swift to cast quickened true strike, standard to cast keen edge.


"You're a hard woman to find, Violet," Alicia's voice heard from immediately behind the lillitu is hopefully her first clue that things have gone horribly wrong for her today.

Yep, miss in on arcane sight.

Somehow, Violet is already turning towards you the moment reality turns to normal, "Y-" she begins, as...

Are you attacking or talking?

Ebiris

Oh we're going into initiative now, I just wanted to allow a chance for any free-action banter to go through.

Supreme init.

Anastasia

Go for it, I'll sort out init if needed after what's going to be some maiming, I'm sure.
