Forever lies ahead

[Anastasia]

Okay, cool, how are you trying that then?

[Iron Dragoon]

Alter reality to scry or something to identify it? Not sure beyond that vague idea.

[Anastasia]

Sure, gimme a spell you could alter reality and I'll roll with it.

[Iron Dragoon]

Probably some combo use of Foresight and Scrying.

[Anastasia]

You can't alter reality foresight, that's a level 9 spell.

[Iron Dragoon]

I meant use it together with an alter reality'd scrying. I dunno if it works exactly like I think, but the fluff of the spell implies it'll give a general sense of 'good' and 'bad' actions. I'm hoping having it active during the scrying will help give me *something* I can use to sorta steer myself around.

You feel it. A malignancy. A rot. A dreadful thing, a horror that eats and hungers, one that creeps towards you. It watches you from a hundred vantage points here, from a hundred sets of eyes broken and yet alive.

It is many.

It is a legion.

The creatures of this realm writhe and watch you, hunger and tear at your body.

A demon lord gazes at you through the many that are part of him, the endless creatures you have pushed back for this time.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa sends to the others, There's a demon lord watching us through all of these things' eyes. Hunger and rot. I'm betting it won't show until we've taken a significant portion of these things out, and it'll survive if we don't get all of them. Ideas?

[Anastasia]

Great. So we have to face a demon lord and he has home field advantage.

If the Red Knight did it, we can do it!

[Iron Dragoon]

The Red Knight probably had a bit more intel on her target and planning, but let's at least not waste our being here. We'll push as far as we can and pay attention for weaknesses, or anything of note we can make use of if we have to come back.

[Anastasia]

'If,' Bastian sends back through pure telepathy, 'Anyway, enough talking, let's move before they make another wave attack.'

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods and moves with the group, starting a general search for the Hidden Room.

[Anastasia]

Looking about, you have several hundred feet of free space. The ground is blasted, cracked and ruined. Bone dry if you don't miss your guess.

Ahead is more of the same, save monsters crawl across it relentlessly. The ones you've seen before and more, horizon to horizon that you can see and probably beyond as well. The only hint of anything ahead is a tall mountain very distant on the horizon.

[Iron Dragoon]

Well, it's a bit obvious to be concealing the hidden room, but we might as well rule it out. Let's head for the mountain.

Can we just like, teleport to it?

[Anastasia]

You could try, sure.
