Glantri vs. the End of the World
I look out into the desert and sigh slightly, "I think we're being used by him, but I'm not sure to what purpose. He seems to have retained some element of himself... And if Billy was trapped by those roots, it should have been easy for him to simply kill Billy while the roots kept him tied down... But I can't help but feel he lured us here to fight the immortal in these ruins, likely whatever one called up those roots... The worst part is even believing as strongly as I do that we're being used, I think doing what he wants is for now in San Miguel's best interest... I want to help purify his curse, but destroying an immortal this close to town is too important to delay in the process."
I turn to Selene and Leona, "That's my opinion at least, but it's more personal to the two of you, so I defer to your decisions. If you want, I think with Vadahf and Herme's help I can still run him down."
---------- Below are the two actions I would take, depending on Selene/Leona's
If they decide so I'll internally call out to Vadahf and Hermes, <i> This immortal is incredibly fast. I believe if the three of us focus our efforts that we can overtake him. Hermes, do you remember when we were racing in my soulscape? I harnessed the power of lightning to keep pace. I can't do that in this plane, or not without help. Vadahf, do you think you could extend the aura of your blade and meld into mine temporarily, guarding me against the negative effects of lightning while Hermes and I draw upon it for its speed?"
If so, that's exactly what I'm going to try. I'll step forward into the desert and once Vadahf has done her part, I'll get into a stance to begin my sprint and reach out towards the elemental air, with Hermes help and draw upon it all. I'm imagining a storm cloud forming as I focus the energy over the course of a minute and the ritual being finished by a bolt of lightning striking down to me. When it gets within fractions of an inch it will strike the conduit that is my aura melded with Vadahfs, and course around me but not strike out at me. This will allow me to draw upon it's energy using the mote pump and rocket forward after the immortal. I'll release a loud shout of exhilaration as I rocket forward.
-----Option if they decide to follow him another day-----
"Well, let's continue on then." and I'll head back into the corridor with the Boulder and check out the first room on the left.
OOC) I've been thinking of how to do something cool with Vadahf and Hermes for a while, to show off the bond they have due to the unique nature of Vadahf's creation and the affinity between their elements and also bond to me.
