TSB;EoA: Veins of Primordial Blight [Session 10] (Elemental Plane of Air; Halitus)

Plot Synopsis

Ignis and Ji are in the town square with the two clones as Samson vanishes from their sight. They are able to hold the clones off until Moryena and Wisteria arrive from the direction that Ji had arrived from. It doesn’t take long for Ignis to drop one, as Moryena struggles to do damage without releasing any of the anthrax from the abomination’s body. They deal damage, but the party is able to hold themselves with the two currently there.

The issue arises when the remaining two clones close in on their position. With one down, and the other severely damaged, the addition of two more fresh beings being thrown into the fray is enough to turn the tides for the worse. Ji and Wisteria fall quickly after, with Moryena and Ignis cornered and close to death. Seeing no other option- Ignis retrieves the communication beetle from where it lays powerless in the bag- and calls the other groups to send help.

In the next round, six members of the other group arrive at the scene. With the help of the others the battle is finished quickly- and the last three remaining abominations are dispatched. Not before Ujyaku casts chaos- reversing the skin of one, and blasting the entire clumped group with a face full of Anthrax. Ji and Ujyaku succumb to the poison- with some of the new people being able to concentrate the infection within Ujyaku’s arm (and then cutting it off, then retrieving a random arm from one of the abominations to use as a replacement) and Wisteria calling Mishra’s help to cure Ji’s infection.

The party obtains the item that they came here for (one of the abomination’s eyes, that looks creepily like Wisteria’s), and makes sure that Gale is well taken care of by the guard before they call Tal to take them back to the isle of Mordrik. Now armed with the information of what the clones can do- the party rushes to Nis’s abode with a plan to take out Willow before she can hurt anyone. They arrive at Nis’s place to find Willow in the middle of baking something- and the party concocts a plan to get Willow to come with them to the fire plane to help with their quest. Willow follows them, walking through the portal without hesitation after Wisteria informs her that she will meet the other clones they found.

She walks through, with Ignis behind- it is but a few moments before her body joins the ashes that cover the Elemental Plane of Fire.
