There are times where the world seems to say fuck you in particular. Whether or not Flora has inherited her (adoptive) father's terrible luck this time around is likely not something anyone can answer for sure. But either way, out there somewhere, Ronin is wincing. Just wait and see.

As the nether vines writhe all around, Talyson is able to slash out with his dagger and, for all of his protests about not being able to see the jungle for the jungle, he connects with a devastating blow. The Oerwoud itself seems to shriek and quiver, the vines continuing to undulate and vibrate. Perhaps it's his attack that makes it wary of Flora's next thrown dagger, but for whatever reason (rolling a 5), the Doubletake's attack goes wide again.

For all of Noah's good intentions, he's unable to conjur another Atomic Roar so quickly, and so whilst his commands ring out around the group, it isn't accompanied by anything more than his stony resolve.

Whatever he says, though, it must have rallied Sah somewhat, because once more the Wild Thunder's arc of air magic wrenches the canopy above, and yet another gush of stinking void rains down upon them.

That's not all, though.

Those vines haven't been quivering for fun, people. Having prepared itself, the creature whips out - at everyone at once - before the vines are slorping back up and up and away into the foliage. As luck would have it, they miss the vast majority of the party.

All but Flora, a vine cracking across her shoulders, though blessedly it doesn't take her with it as it slithers away.

Tal was almost as surprised as the Void Guardian when he hit. He shook sticky Void off his face and Goggles so he could be sure that he'd done the damage he'd thought he had--

And then Sah used his air magic to cover them all in corrupted blood-sap-goo again and the courier swore in fierce mumbles as he was forced to keep his mouth closed again against accidental ingestion of the yucky stuff.

But, hail, it was working. Maybe a little too well, as the jungle retaliated and Tal twisted to the side to avoid retribution. This time he saw Flora get hit, however, and his swearing went up a notch. "Fuckin'-- HEY! Leave 'er alone!" he yelled at the jungle, trying to get on the other side of Flora so that she was between Noah's back and his own. "Pick on someone your own size, y'stupid, smelly sack o' overgrown shoelaces!"

Y'know, not someone like Tal. Just... someone not-Flora.

But at least he punctuated his demands with an emphatic stab of his trusty Nightmare Delivery Dagger.


Tal moves to the other side of Flora to protect her (so she's in the middle between him and Noah), and taunts the jungle. Also, he stabs it to get his point across.

Thanks Ronin.

Hardly noticing the violet ichor now coating everything, instead as Flora was struck once again, this time there was no Herculean demigod before her to help steady herself against, nor would Noah's presence likely have helped regardless. Falling to her knees, the first few sips of air the Doubletake tried to draw into her lungs didn't seem to make it past her teeth, and it was only as she mentally screamed at herself to breathe that she managed a loud gasp.

"—hit...it's..above us—" The queen croaked, having put (INT)two and two together about where the bulk of the monster must be in relation to the vines that kept targeting her. "Going invisible, Noah I'll stay behind you." She'd have her breath back in a few seconds, but the last thing she needed was to have Noah knock it from her again because he couldn't see her. As she reached for her final dagger, she gave her ring a twist. After throwing the blade up, she groped out for Tal, gripping onto the back of whatever unfashionable shirt choice he'd made that morning if only so that he'd have an idea of where she was.



Flora would like to use her regional ability to shake off half that damage!

She goes invisible and throws her final dagger up at the monster and then holds onto Tal.

Noah
That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heart and cast away
"I can heal you after we kill this thing. Try to get out of range." Noah said to Flora as she went invisible. His voice was tight with concern for the young woman and her wellbeing, and even though his glacier eyes stayed upwards now on their target (thanks Flora), they too were full of concern. It wasn't that he didn't want to now, but he could not risk another round of doing nothing like an idiot because that is what using his Celestial magic would be. Just as stupid as forgetting he needed time to rest his abilities between uses -- perhaps the hope had not sunk deep enough to forget the underlying truth -- that he could walk out of this (if even it was eventually) whereas the others could be seeing Mort.

Then Noah did what he could to inflict some damage before his most powerful ability was ready. He sent his spirit stag forward, bursting with brilliant sunlight and fire towards the creature.

Sah

Sah's eyes snap over at Flora's gasp, just in time to see the vine retreat and her fall to her knees. "Shit." He wants to heal her immediately as she goes invisible behind Tal, but the others are right that eliminating the threat is the priority right now. "If you want me to heal you before we finish this thing off, just say the word." He can offer, at the very least. 

Listening to her words, the Wild Thunder turns his attention skyward and sends up another slice of air magic. Part of him is concerned that the creature might fall on them if they don't move soon. But hopefully Noah's next roar will give them some distance.

Something something Taylor Swift lyrics - Flora shakes off the creature's attack as if it's her job, promptly turns invisible, and here we are.

Talyson's efforts are gallant enough, it's true, though maybe all of that taunting and protection causes him to get distracted, because he isn't as successful this time around at striking the creature. Luckily, Flora has his back - literally - and the third of her feathers finally finds its way home to the meaty heart of the monster high above.

Her streak of luck sets up the others, too - with a roar of flame and starlight, Noah's stag sears some of the hanging vines attached to the larger bulk of the overhanging canopy, and Sah - on a roll, it seems - hits for a third time with a whiplash of air that, yes, soaks them yet again in ichor.

Warbling a low and horrifying noise, one of the nether vines tries to grapple at Noah, but on this occasion, misses entirely.

With Flora's instruction to guide him coming better late than never soz, posting order, Tal figured out what direction he needed to be aiming after Noah and Sah made some solid hits of their own.

And under the inspirational spatter of the constant rain of goopy Void blood, the courier put two and two together to get five. "Hey, guys? We, uh... we probably don't want to be directly underneath this thing when it dies..." Not that it was dead yet, but something to keep in mind for the near future, hopefully. "So let's start shiftin' over, yeah?"

At least he could feel Flora hanging on to his blandly basic grey linen shirt - which was quickly becoming a rather slick-looking violet-black - even if he couldn't see her. Moving slow enough for Noah and Sah to keep up, Tal started scooting to his right, trying to judge just how far they needed to maneuver to get out from under the Void-rain.

And, following Flora's gasped instructions, he stabbed upwards with his poisoned Dagger, aiming for the place where Sah's air magic had cut through leaves and nether vines alike.


Tal suggests they move out from directly underneath the giant monster above them and uses his INT 2 to try and figure out how far/where they have to go to avoid being squished. And he throws another stab in the direction of Sah's last attack, following Flora's directions!

flora

Though Sah 's attacks have the Oerwoud belching violet ichor at them, it does seem to be doing the trick, so where normally Flora would complain, she has nothing but praise for the Wildthunder. It's silent praise, but perhaps when everything is over and done with, she'll give him a pat on the back.

"Gonna recall my daggers—duck!" The Doubletake yells out before stretching her hand up into the air in the hopes that even if she was ignored, the fallen daggers would still fly over head-level. Noah at just over 6' was the tallest, but Flora's reach would hopefully more than make up for the 6" of difference between them. Even though 2/3 of her daggers were somewhere in the foliage, she held out hope that maybe they'd slice through a vine or something on their way back. If nothing else, at least she'd have them back.

Still gripping onto Talyson as he began to edge away from beneath the creature, Flora hummed her agreement about not being squashed.

Noah
That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heart and cast away
Information came in all at once and Noah followed. He didn't argue with the logic. It was above them, they were hurting it, and it could fall - and they were certainly all smaller than it. He crouched and started moving backwards, making sure that Talyson stayed behind him enough as he followed. He did not dare take his eyes off their enemy, though. "Sah, stay out of range!" The Forsaken said as he moved. 

Crouched enough that he could stay out of the way of Flora's incoming daggers, Noah waited and assured by looking at the Wild Thunder that his friend was out of range of his attack, then when he was confident, sent his atomic roar towards the tentacled void beast. He hoped, too, that all his time working against Halo’s harsh nature would keep him upright as he moved with his friends.

Sah

It seems like they're on the same page, and Sah nods at Talyson and begins to move back. "I was thinking the same thing." Given how much dark 'blood' was raining down on them, the creature was large and could easily crush them. They couldn't risk it. Not with how injured Flora was already.

At said Doubletake's warning, the Abandoned keeps an eye out for stray daggers as he channels his magic again. Calling to Noah, “Will do!” Staying behind Noah, Sah once more sends a blast of air magic up and at the beast above them. He listens intently for any cracking or odd sounds that suggest that the beast is about to fall.

We'll say that Talyson is busy think think thinking, and that's why his dagger doesn't succeed in landing another hit against the void guardian. (That tracks, right?) But let it be said that it's a very, very close call, and the Messenger will practically be able to taste that disgusting ichor as his blade skims the creature hulking over them.

Meanwhile, the group dodges, ducks, dips, dives and dodges to avoid being hit by Flora's returning daggers, and for good reason. Where the Doubletake's feathers didn't manage to hit on the way out, at least one of them snips right through a nether vine on its way back, and the other tears out of the monster and takes a chunk of it en route.

Followed up by Noah's Atomic Roar, not to mention his fancy footwork, and the creature is on the ropes. This time it doesn't keen or shriek or scream its anguish, but if anything, the deep, low groaning is almost worse, vibrating through bones and causing skin to crawl. Sah's streak of perfect accuracy ends this round, alas, his arc of air magic falling short, but that's okay. All is quiet. Still.

Until it isn't.

The roots that erupt from the jungle floor are sharper than any daggers, tearing from the earth as if the Oerwoud itself has just grown teeth. Centred on one point - on Noah - they converge, quicker than a snake in grass... and they strike.

The Forsaken's body will find itself punctured right through in numerous places - torso, shoulders, legs - leaving him skewered and suspended by the void roots, unable to move. There's no viscous pouring of liquid on them this time, at least. Noah's blood runs bright crimson, after all.



Noah is unable to move this round! (He can perform magical attacks, but nothing physical).

Missing another hit would have been more frustrating if Tal hadn't realized with a sort of fast-dawning horror that the creature wasn't just inconveniently above them.

It was above everything.

"Shitshitshit this thing is th'Oerwoud now!" he managed to get out of a throat suddenly tense with fear. "We can't avoid it!" Just what would happen to them if they died while they were still in it was a really good fucking question that they were about to find out the answer to.

And then it didn't matter because holy fuck Noah was getting the full Evil Dead treatment and Tal wasn't going to be leaving him if he had a choice. "Let go o' him!" He didn't know if Safrin could even hurt this thing, and the last time he'd channeled Ludo he'd gotten trolled, so Tal focused on doing what he could with his own strength, slashing fiercely at the base of the roots with his Dagger to try and sever them. "Fuck up th'roots, but keep an eye out for th'vines!" he called to his allies.



Tal uses his Nightmare Dagger to try and cut the roots holding Noah! (careful not to cut his friend in the process!)

Given that everything is coated in the creature's blood, Flora has no good way to judge whether or not her blades have done anything on their return to her palm, but if nothing else, at least she can throw them back out again.

That's when the earth begins to heave around them, opening up a bit like that strange flesh pit once did, and while Flora isn't happy to see any of their group impaled the way Noah is, better that it be the only immortal of them if it had to be someone. "Noah—are you..?" good? okay? going to die? Wincing, the words dying on her tongue, Flora instead focused on the roots holding him aloft. Noah could heal and teleport, so worst case scenario he could get himself out of dodge if his injuries were really that bad. Better the Doubletake focus on something she could actually do.

Like slicing through the roots. "You got it." She huffs behind Talyson, for once thinking his advice was spot-on. Lifting one of her daggers, Flora aims it at the thickest of the roots holding Noah up and lets the blade fly from her hand.



Still invisible, Flora throws one of her daggers at the largest of the roots holding Noah up. She's still standing behind Tal.

Noah
That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heart and cast away
Pain. White hot, searing, pure pain ripped through the demigod’s body. He was immediately overcome and his mouth filled with warm, gurgling blood. His feet flopped in a helpless looking way as he was lifted off the ground by the roots. His head throbbed and he choked, spitting blood in a crimson spray. Glacier eyes widened in panic and pain, and every instinct in him told him to just keep fighting

He gasped. Well, he tried to gasp. It was mostly gagging and choking in his own blood that bubbled still in his throat. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. 

While he knew it might — most likely wouldn’t — do anything to the monster attacking him, he had to. He reached for Vi’s divine might and spread the brilliant dome across himself and his friends, trying to bring vigor back to his own body and if he was lucky, give some back to his friends as well.
