And it had all been going so well.

Admittedly, he hadn't really been paying attention to the environmental fallout of his attacks and he'd feel really dumb about that later, but for the moment he was too busy feeling like a ton of bricks had fallen on him as a tentacle finally succeeded in hitting his ship and swatting him from the sky like a bug. He managed to bring the Peregrine down under just enough control that she didn't shatter, but she wouldn't be flying again anytime soon and the courier himself wasn't in much better shape.

He groaned as he pulled himself from the wreckage, a cut over his brow from a broken spar sending blood over one eye and making him look a lot worse than he was. Probably. The bruises were pretty deep but nothing felt broken as the courier turned towards the voice in the water that was berating him, of all things?? Tal scowled, but before he could react further a couple of familiar voices were cutting through his daze and bringing him back into full awareness.

Flora, praying, and reminding him that he didn't have to do this alone.

And Noah, coming to lend a hand that was sorely appreciated right then.

"I'll live," he assured the Forsake, hauling himself up with a groan. "Lemme just--"

He took a deep breath and then added his prayers to Flora's, whose voice was definitely not coming from the weirdly frozen Doubletake down the beach from him, but maybe the fall had affected his vision? "What she said, Rae!" he called to the twin god. "Uh, please?"


Tal gets back on his feet beside Noah and adds his prayer to Flora's to try and channel Rae to clean up his mess!

Frey
Appearing in a tangle of sea spray and vines, Frey regarded the Void Horror with eyes that shifted with ever-changing appearance but with the same stare of unease. "I wouldn't want that in my waters, either." They agreed in a low voice.

All at once the tangle of the creature's limbs began to move and knot together. With so little health left this was enough to drain all remaining life from its strange body, but not before Frey had tied off all of its loose ends so that no more of its poison could seep into Torchline's waters.

VOID HORROR
As Frey knots the creature around itself, a large wave, compliments of Hadama, shoves the ball of void-grossness onto the shore....only for it to be shoved back into the water by Noah 's blast. Flora is once again struck by the force of the Foresaken's attack, but as the dust settles, everyone is alive (except the Void Horror), and though it's back in the water, at least it isn't bleeding any more poison into the ocean.

Something should be done about it as there are enough organic parts that once it begins to decompose it's likely to become even more horrific, but for now, you're all safe.

you look like my next mistake
Still unable to see Noah, as Flora was once again blasted by unseen magic, it was with an exasperated, "What the FUCK—" that she tugged off her own invisibility item in time to watch the Void Horror drift back out to the water. Having not been at the mini event gathering where Noah's atomic roar was first demonstrated (to everyone else present, as it happened), Flora was still under the impression that it had been the Void Horror who'd twice attacked her.

Still caring more about Torchline than she did the courier, the Doubletake limped to the water's edge where she plucked up her pocket mirror before waving her arms at the ocean as if somehow Hadama might see her. No doubt he'd been the one who'd shoved the monstrosity ashore, so hopefully he could do it again.

"Tal, are you dead?" Flora yelled over one shoulder as she swept her aqua gaze toward where the courier was laying. "I can get Ronin over here to heal you right now if you are, but if not we can walk to the Fountain once this fucking this is out of the water."

Frey's appearance was ray of sunshine in a day of horrors and the god's neat handling of the Toxic Avenger released some of the tension that knotted the Tidebreaker's chest in spite of his outward calm. He still worked to push the carcass out of the water, intending to be better safe than sorry--

When Noah's Roar pushed the beast right back into the ocean. Hadama drew a slow breath in through his gills and then out once more, and was glad to turn his attention to the Queen who popped into sight on the shore. He raised his equine head and flicked his webbed ears in a splash of silent understanding before bending his Water Magic once more to use another wave to push the beast back to the shore, this time for good.

He did not want to think of what would have happened if Frey had not tied off the leaking limbs before Noah pushed it back into the water. It had not happened, and there was no time to dwell on unnecessary might-have-beens.

Noah
It creeps in like a thief in the night
Without a sign, without a warning
As soon as the creature fell, Noah pulled his hood down. He held his position in protection of Talyson, but with the death of the creature and the appearance of the queen, Noah settled slightly. But his hands shook with the adrenaline coursing through his veins.

Also unable to see Flora for the majority of the time, Noah hadn’t noticed her being pushed back at the mercy of his magic at all. But when she came up and offered Ronin, he interjected gently, ”No need. For healing, at least.” then ignited the dome around them all. Celestial magic covered them all, ready to fix muscle and bone and bruises as needed. Even from damage he caused.

”But maybe we call them to help dispose of this thing.” he followed up, pointing to the thing. A leviathan or a kraken would be much better to take it away. ”It shouldn’t stay here. Who knows what it can do.” The Forsaken sounded as if he was afraid it might come back to life.



Noah heals and says they need to dispose of this horror creature.

Magic: Divine Opposition | Noah summons a celestial shield dome in a 60ft radius. Any allies within the shield receive Mastered Healing, and any enemies are damaged at an Mastered level. May be used 3x per thread with a two post cool down.

Well thank fuck Frey for large miracles! Even if seeing that particular god right now made Tal wince a little and duck his head in shame. He would have edged behind Noah if he could have seen the Halovian, but things were moving pretty fast at that point and the next thing he knew it was all over but the looting.

"I ain't dead yet," Tal called back assurance to Flora, then exhaled a big breath of relief as Noah's magic washed over him. A twist of his own ring finished topping him up, but he looked sadly at his ship, resting his hand on a piece of her cracked hull as his expression turned morose. Noah's suggestion of moving the giant carcass drew a faint shake of the courier's head. "Sure, but where else can we shift it that won't be just as bad? I dunno. From what we saw at th'Lighthouse, I'd say cut it up an' burn it," he suggested to anyone who would listen.

But it wasn't his region to clean up or his giant monster to worry about anymore. He stroked the Peregrine's rail as if comforting a wounded animal. "I mean, I'll help. It's at least partly my fault it was oozin' everywhere. Just lemme get the ol' girl patched up a bit first."
