Fairy waltz

[Nephrite]

I do, actually! Inspire Spellpower will boost caster level checks by 4, and his harp boosts them by 2 as well, so a total of +6.

[Anastasia]

Fort.

[Nephrite]

[13:55] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+56+26+15 fort, mettle
[13:55] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+56+26+15 fort, mettle --> [ 1d20=20 ]{117}

[Anastasia]

You feel slammed back - but you hold on. When you recover, slowly, Kaja and Sylvie's wounds are healing. Slowly, but mending under magic. Kaja lies back in relief while Sylvie manages, "L-like that."

[Nephrite]

Moore will study what's going on - they may need to replicate this again.

Take 10 on Spellcraft for 109 and K:A for 114 to study this magic.

[Anastasia]

Simply put, the raw power of the Shining Watcher amplified further is sufficient to force the issue. It's a battering ram approach, and it's perhaps one of the few beings in Creation who could do it like this.

[Nephrite]

He'll have to work with someone like Illmater to come up with a spell for this, then.

"Well, we can't just bring everyone here who gets afflicted with this, but at least we have an idea of what can overpower it." Moore says as he continues to watch.

[Anastasia]

"It means we can't be hurt like this again," Sylvie says, voice steadying as her wounds mend. "This is a very finite resource. It means that until we're ready, we can't risk a confrontation with her."

[Nephrite]

"That, too." Moore says. "Or find a way to destroy the weapons if we see them."

[Anastasia]

"The one advantage we have," Sylvie says as her body mends, "Is that I expect she didn't think we'd manage to recover from this. She was willing to play the long game to let us suffer and spread discord and fear amid us and our allies. What better way to strike fear into us is to see deities themselves laid low and unable to heal from her wounds?"

"Small consolation," Kaja bares his teeth his body is whole once more, "If that was her plan, she'll be more interested in the kill next time."

"Then we don't give her a next time until it's on our terms," Cresiel interjects, "Our terms, our time, our victory."

[Nephrite]

"We should lay low for a while to give her the impression we're still reeling, then." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

"I hate to give her even that," Jetina scowls, "Is it really wise?"

"Wise, but bitter," Xandra speaks up now, then turns to the Shining Watcher. "We are in your debt, sir."

The vast beast watches before.

You are healed. Leave. Tell no one of this place.

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and will do as they are asked!

They can discuss this back home.

[Anastasia]

Thus you return home - what do you want to do now?

[Nephrite]

"We need to discuss the matter of Mask." Moore says. "But I don't know where to start that."
