key quest
Well let's get into the nitty-gritty of it all, shall we?
Wessex 's re-resonance goes awry (critical miss), and she'll instantly feel the drain on her body of the magic meant for the monsters...and then she'll feel it again, only much worse as her splashback upgrade sends this phenomenal fuckup back at her. Neron 's attack doesn't backfire the way the Queen's does, but it's just as ineffective (which is to say it misses by a mile). Edrei 's display does nothing other than make her look like the teenager she no longer is (she too misses), which leaves us just with Peter. Weakest of those assembled, and yet he's the only one to make contact with the monsters. His blades slice through the hoard of them, decapitating one, removing the shoulder of another. These monsters aren't held together by much and will likely fall quite quickly...should you actually hit them.
"Good work Q U E E N. We will enjoy taking the broken parts of your broken empire and making ourselves stronger with them. When we kill you, we'll make sure that you stay dead." The monster's hiss, their voices in unison as all eyes fall uponWessex. Clusters 2 and 3 reach out with a multitude of tentacles, both trying to grapple the queen. Tentacles of cable and sinew stretch out, but none are fast enough to capture the demigod. (Both miss).
Swarm 5 rounds onNeron, and out of the darkness of their combined bodies bits of shrapnel are thrown into the ascended's chest. (Hit).
The largest creature finally breaks the streak of misses between itself andEdrei, hitting her with a blast of black, brackish energy that sends her flying.
Unhappy with being attacked, Cluster 4 mobs forward to attackPeter. However now that they're missing limbs, they slash toward him with claws that are no longer there. (Miss)
