Annals of the Azlanti

[lostsole31]

R5T10.3 (Cont'd): There is a numbing warmth spreading out through Natalya's hip-groin-legs, as well as her ear-head-torso-arms, and she falls. From Natalya's perspective, things go blurry and she falls in a dream-like, soft state.

Bessel and Ichibod (not Dorit, because she's too tall to see down the passageway), you see Natalya (and her images) drop to the ground as if fainting. It doesn't seem like a death-fall, but unconsciousness. Meanwhile, three creatures appear. The first is a wild-looking derro woman that looks like she is better outfitted than Atlatia, and her face is a form of beauty contorted by insanity lunacy; this woman appears right in front of Bessel. Meanwhile, hovering around Natalya's multi-imaged form are two creatures - half the size of Bessel himself - that look vaguely like this new derro woman; these little beasts both have blood in their toothy grins, and flap about on little bat wings.

Spoiler: Bessel

Because you read through Atlatia's readings, this fourth derro must be one she might have referred to once as Magister Khrysm.

R5T10: Dorit, you don't know the conditions of the hallway battle (other than the fact that there appears to be one) because of your height. But you do have your current opponent still threatening and willing to scuttle around to get to Ichibod.

What do you do?
