Advancing ahead

[Anastasia]

It's a force effect protecting him, ala resilient sphere, but stealthy and hidden.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa sends to Jarem, 'He's protected by something similar to a Resilient Sphere. A Disintegrate spell or Dispel should negate it.'

Done with that.

[Anastasia]

Jarem goes over to the foe, "Smart, trying to hide, just not smart enough," His blade is against the shimmering force, "Surrender now or I take down the sphere and then take your head."

The figure stops, pauses...and goes still.

'Surrender.'

A simple mental message, the field fading. Jarem exhales at that, securing him quickly.

Free act. Sometimes they know when to fold 'em.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa sends to the others, 'We have a prisoner. Some sort of humanoid with fire elemental traits. Emily, can you have someone from your Mother's forces secure him and take him for interrogation? Everyone else, status report.'

To Jarem she speaks, "Secure his equipment. I want just short of naked and helpless. I won't have him slipping bonds and striking at us again."

[Anastasia]

Looking down, you can see the advance is utterly stopped and pushed back, crushed.

'Got a leader, another fell back when the assault failed,' Bastian says.

Ianvasah's answer is to roar in the sky above, cleared as the foes fall back, bloodied.

'I'll take care of it,' Emily calls, 'Good job everyone!'

[Iron Dragoon]

'Well done, everyone. Ianvash, keep overwatch and search for wounded. I don't want anyone bleeding out that we could save. Bastian, get everything you can from that leader, there may be some intel or something useful. Jarem, organize a rally point. If there's a die-hard general out there readying a counter attack, I want a solid force to meet it. We're mainly on clean up now, but not lets make ourselves targets of opportunity.'

[Anastasia]

So just looking to secure the position for now?

[Iron Dragoon]

Collect straggler and stuff, yeah. I'm assuming that Emily is contact with someone from Seira's forces, who can tell us when/where to redeploy if they need us.

[Anastasia]

Yes. Gimme a quick d100.

[Iron Dragoon]

For now, this section is clear, the enemy regrouping and the party doing the same.

"We'll be moved soon," Jarem says, "But we have a few minutes."

Quick OOC note: A huge amount rests on how the current combats in other rooms unfold. As such, you're somewhat waiting on those, which should resolve soon.

[Iron Dragoon]

That's fine. We cam be used as a skirmish unit if they want.

[Anastasia]

Thus everyone gathers and waits. It's barely any time at all before the elemental that greeted you here comes up, "This position is secure now?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"As best as we can tell. There's likely stragglers, but we've stabilized the area."

[Anastasia]

"Then you are needed elsewhere," The elemental says, "Come when you are ready."
