Somehow Alicia ignores it, stops it. The spell does nothing as Jessica screams. She screams loud, a primal sound that speaks of pain - no, agony. Unthinking agony, primal. She howls in pain unfathomable, as if her entire body is ablaze.

Which isn't hard as you can note which spell it is - nerve overload.

480 damage to Jessica. Ow.

Talona smiles, a dark thing as if that howling gives her newfound vitality. She even seems faster now, stronger. Her wounds seem less, or at least that they pain her less.

Syala.

Syala hovers up and just behind, as warmth and light soothe Jessica. Her screams abate, moonlight soothing all wounds. "Three on one," Syala says, grimly. "You choose poorly."

Meanwhile, your exceptional senses let you hear and sense footsteps, a great many rushing out of the tent now.

Go.

Syala used mass lunar healing since Jessica needed all the healing she could get.

"This is just an avatar," Alicia reminds Syala and Jessica, stepping closer through the twisted space so she can continue her assault on Talona.

But before I do, I need to act on that tent. Does leaving it count as a teleportation effect for greater anticipate teleport? If not can I fire stuff into the tent?

[Anastasia]

No and sure, respectively.

[Ebiris]

Alicia twists space inside the tent, connecting the area around the entrance flap with a spot behind all those rushing feet.

Basically anyone trying to leave will just get looped back on themselves now.

Reaching Talona, her blades fall upon the avatar once more, this time trailing far more damaging divine fire than the vampiric touch she was relying on previously.

Improved mettle.

[Anastasia]

Alicia feels malice, pain and screaming agony touch her. Each is ignored, each is endured. Fates worse than death avoided as the avatar crumbles to dust after a blow cuts it from shoulder to hip. Foul scents linger, unspeakable things that poison the air.

Free act for the moment.

[Ebiris]

Alicia retreats back through twisted space to the area in front of the tent. "Heal Jessica, quickly," she says to Syala, replenishing her many moments of prescience spell and throwing another dispel at the tent.

Quickened MMoP and then a superb dispelling. How many checks?

9 dispels.

"I have her," Syala says as Jessica groans softly, while you see the loop you created work, at least for the moment. Talona's servants - armed and armored in bone - race forward only to be set back, going nowhere for now.

[Ebiris]

They'll probably all get ejected from the tent once she dispels whatever bit of magic maintains its whole 'bigger on the inside' part, but she'll deal with that when it happens.

[Anastasia]

A little more magic dissolves from your spell as Jessica is healed. But then the tent...gets up? Scaled, lizard-like legs taller than you are jut out of the bottom of the tent as it stands up.

This does provoke an AoO out of you.

[Ebiris]

I'm absolutely not standing in melee range with the tent, so no AoO.

[Anastasia]

The tent rises up and...

Init in that case.

[Ebiris]

Supreme init, DvR 5.
