Still struggling with indecision, you look around at your friends in a vain attempt to get inspired! Blinking across the catwalk like a madwoman, you can see Sybil’s temper flare up as she alternates between freezing approaching golems mid-flight and sending <span class="mu-b">ARCANE BOLTS</span> to intercept <span class="mu-r">TEEVOR’S</span> fireballs!
Taking a page from his honey bunny, Art uses his <span class="mu-g">HOMING STAFF</span> to fend off the colossal tentacles approaching from the veil of shadows around you! Though they don’t seem to be too hurt by his attacks, you can’t deny that they’re keeping them from crushing the whole platform!
Talbot, on the other hand, is all over the place. Hurling debris at everyone and everything, you can see his cocky facade cracking as the golems in the air shrug off his attacks as if they were made out of toilet paper! Though Lil’ Stanley tries to act as a spotter, you know better than anyone that these folks are tired.
“Got any crazy ideas, cupcake?” Ly asks as you look past the twisted, jagged remains of the bridge. Though Sybil manages to intercept a few of <span class="mu-r">TEEVOR’S</span>, the skeleton mage isn’t running out of steam–where one projectile is stopped, three more go free! Watching Talbot try and fail to chuck a hunk of debris at one, however, sets off an old, rusty bell deep inside your brain. Yea, you nod as your body fills with renewed confidence, and it’s a real wacky one!
Rushing over to Talbot’s side, the two of you are nearly hurled over the edge of the catwalk as another fireball explodes against its side! Grabbing you by the shoulder with one of his tendrils, the janitor looks at you expectantly as he chucks a piece of railing like a javelin!
“So are you waiting for them to give up, or?”
No, doofus, you growl, you’ve got a better idea! Pointing your finger towards the central totem, you raise an eyebrow his way. Can he get you there?
“Yea, of course!” The janitor confidently declares! “Err… probably.”
Fantastic, you groan, because he’s kind of your only hope right now.
Your ex-bodyguard’s eyes light up as your words sink into his shaggy, dumb head. “Can uh… would you mind saying that agai-”
He’s your only hope, alright?! And you’re his only hope too, so don’t get all <span class="mu-i">fat-headed</span> about it! As the two of you duck under a low-flying golem, Talbot gives you a nod.
“Hey, if you’re sure about it… just don’t hold it against me if I kill ya’, alright?”
Though you try to hold strong as one of his metallic tentacles wraps around you, you can’t help but falter a bit–<span class="mu-i">man</span>, that feels weird! Gently swinging you around in the air a few times, the janitor sticks his tongue out in concentration before pausing to look your way. “You ready?”
<span class="mu-s">YES,</span> you snarl, now throw or we-
You never finish that sentence. Whipping his tendril back behind him, Talbot takes a few steps back before sending you flying!
