Spitfire's Flame: Part 2

[Anubis Dread]

"The magic of a cleric is the very will of their diety flowing into the world," Blightmist explains as he checks a few more barrels. It seemed as though Drask's was the only one in good condition. Which would still get them more gold than he could even comprehend. "Is is imbued into me by Vivicous herself each morning with my prayers. Every spell is her breath brought into being. Every incantation a prayer to her majesty. It feels almost sacrilegious to have her blessings still within me when I ask her for more. I don't think I rely on magic, I simply find the act of using it to be a form of devotion to my goddess. That said using it in this particular instance would be rather wasteful," he admitted.

[redfeline]

My tribe told me, my duty was to meet nature half way. Our crops would grow, but only with care. We would find game, but only if we offered thanks to the spirit of the animal and worked hard to find it.

She turned to Blight But I do see your point. A child who asks for more while wasting what has is likely to be spanked and go with out.

Round 1: Post Rounds
Just as Drask is lucky enough to find the treasure of wine, Zander is unlucky enough to check one barrel that has been invaded by a slime, which has turned a dark red color, must have been a merlot barrel, and it attacks.

Your spell would have told you many of them were still good, however, checking to find out if they are good and not destroying the wine is a difficult and lucky process, thus no need for the spell.

<Just found a massive barrel! Should be out soon,> Drask sends mentally to Silverstep quite happy with his find. At the sound of yelling though he turns back around. "Can you look after that?" he asks of Blightmist, indicating the barrel, before picking up his maul and rushing past the fleeing Zandar towards the latest slime.

[Anubis Dread]

How had his spell not detected the presence of this creature? The wine barrels must be thicker than he thought. Luna was right. He relied on his magic too much at times. He wanted to rely on Vivicous's blessings, but that was no reason to slack off and get careless.

Marching towards the slime Blightmist pulls out his mace and swings.

The room is silent after the death of the slime. There is a door way leading both to the right and the left. On the north wall is set a sealed medal gate (DC 15 Str to open).

When in doubt, pry open the most secure looking door. After taking a quick break to renew his spell Blightmist began to pull at the door attempting to force it open.

This was bad. These undead were powerful enough his turning didn't destroy them outright. Were they outmatched? Well so far they weren't dealing any significant damage... still. With the large number in the area and they're relative power it would be best to spend a little magic to make the fight easier than risk one of their deaths fighting with nothing but his mace.

Muttering a prayer under his breath, the light of Vivicous swirled around him.

Blightmist hissed in pain. What was with horrible undead with debilitating diseases getting through his armor? He needed to get a better shield. Knowing his enemy was almost down, and that his allies could deal with it, Blightmist removed himself from melee before rushing after the fleeing zombies.
