Hmm, so you're saying...

It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...

You mentally give a sigh of relief as you remember that the Goddess Lorminstra owes you a favor.

* Tigrlily just bit the dust!

You hear the subdued thoughts of Jorddyn echo in your mind:
"Hrm, need another hint?"

Your head snaps back suddenly as a hand clamps over your mouth and pulls you backwards. Three slashes across your throat cut short any attempt to scream.

... 150 points of damage!

Incredible slash to your neck!
Throat and vocal cords destroyed!
Zero chance of survival.
The buzz of thoughts in your mind subsides.

...departing in 13 mins...



You struggle briefly, but you collapse and fall to the ground as your strength fails. You barely make out the shadowy figure looming above you as your vision blurs and your senses grow dim. You can still hear the words cold and clear before everything goes dark,


" That is a high price to learn the value of silence."


Everything goes dark and the last thing you hear are faint footsteps and a sinister laughter fading away.

[Lava Flows, Sinkholes - 2128]
Streams of molten lava from the southern ridgeline vanish into sinkholes here, the liquid stone returning to subterranean realms through holes burned in the older basalt. With molten lava vanishing almost underfoot the ground here is uncomfortable to even walk on, and the heated air feels like an oven. You also see a point of elemental instability and a wasp nest.
Obvious paths: east, west

The wasp nest is strangely quiet.

Reciting the mystical phrases of Hurl Boulder, you feel a rime of frost wreathe your blue eyes and infuse them with an icy blue energy that dissipates as you release your spell.
Your spell is ready.

You gesture at a wasp nest.
You hurl a large boulder at a wasp nest!

... and hit for 87 points of damage!
Suddenly a swarm of wasps erupts from the wasp nest, filling the air with the dreadful droning of their wings! The enraged wasps block out the sky as they swoop down to defend their nest!

The great swarm descends upon you! Their glistening stingers hammer into you over and over, and you feel your life slipping away as you collapse.

------------------------

The wasp nest was empty.

You sense a surge of essence being dragged from the elemental and into your multicolored soulstone.
The earth elemental rumbles in agony as it teeters for a moment, then falls directly at you!
In a vain attempt, you leap to dodge the massive falling creature! The elemental strikes you squarely, crushing you beneath it and the ground!

You hear several snaps as your neck is broken in several places.

This just went down in the Landing, TSC.

An animated Illoke jarl punches his fist into the ground!
An animated Illoke jarl thrusts a a clenched fist toward the heavens, a soft grey pulse of pure spiritual energy rises from its apex, washing over an animated Illoke jarl and those nearby.

The voice of Hapenlok says, "And that's why you don't animate those. ...idiot."

The voice of Hapenlok says, "And that's why you don't animate those. ...idiot."

No, that is exactly why you animate those.

Almost reminds me of JD's MTK invasions of Solhaven.
