>>5750702Quicker than you can fathom, the room becomes engulfed in a dark toxic fog that seems to emanate from every Odesse’s very form. You begin to find it difficult not just to breathe but to see as well. In an attempt to alleviate the latter, you rip off your helmet and toss it onto the ground. Better that this fiend see the face of the woman that will end him once and for all.
“You….I remember you from Arcadia.” Odesse hisses with fury. “I should have known Anacharsis’ runaway brat would have a hand in this cowardly subterfuge. Nevertheless, what a great fortune I’ve stumbled upon today. Not only will I put this accursed monastery to the torch, but I’ll get to inflict unspeakable agony upon you and your friends, Blair d’Rusalka.”
“Blair? Bennett says from behind. He’s placed one hand over his mouth, and squints to observe the area. Through the fog. “Blair the Witch? This is certainly an unexpected surprise. Though I daresay not an entirely unwelcome one. You’re supposed to be an enemy to the Agarthans, are you not? Well, there’s one right in front of you. Do away with him, and perhaps the Goddess will see fit to divert your soul from hell.”
“Help! Let us through! Please!” A soldier cries. He attempts to open the tent flap, only to be consumed by the fog the moment he reaches the edge. He is not the only one. Several of his comrades who’d had the same idea and try to flee in a panic each find themselves devoured by Odesse’s fog upon making it to the exit.
“No one is going anywhere.” Odesse says. “For countless lifespans, I’ve waited for the day I could cast Garreg Mach into the fire. I will not be denied now that I’ve come so close! Bennett, once I’m done with this insolent girl and her lackeys, it will be your turn.”
“Get to it then, snake.” Bennett seethes.
You toss your Strength Tonic towards Uriel, who snatches it out of the air. He fortunately already knows what the item is, and no words need be exchanged between the two of you. You lead the onslaught against Odesse, Gungnir outstretched and ready to taste its first sip of blood under your command.
>Blair: 32 STR + 20 (Gungnir) + 5 (Lancefaire) = 57 – 30 DEF = 27 DMG
>Stun: 23, (Hit, Odesse cannot counterattack)>Odesse: 173/200 HPThe fog slows you down considerably. You can hardly even see your target in front of you. Still, Gungnir is an incredibly crafted weapon. A masterpiece forged by someone who wished for you to use it to kill the exact person you face now. The spear cuts through the darkness and finds purchase within Odesse’s chest in a spray of black blood. The weapon serves as a conduit for your magic, and you manage to paralyze the Sage.
