Session 20: Callum's reflection

by Callum Virtaernus

This is the difference between devils and demons. Both are intelligent, but the former acts with a malicious cunning the spawn of the abyss tend to lack. And Moloch is no fool. Cornering Angus after bombarding him with stuns and poison...The relief I felt as our brother the Platinum Dragon answered his plea was nearly that of when Zora's life was returned to me. Perfect timing too, because old strength, a purer vitality and might like that which was mine in Heaven returns to me bit by bit, and just like Geryon, I know Moloch won't forget the paladin who took him through a building. And now all of Waterdeep knows he's here.
 
The more we fight and discover just how far this plot goes, the more I begin to realize what will be required of us, and I think my friends know this too. All of us fight to our utmost, even when parted from one another. And even though Moloch doesn't get a trip back to Hell, at least he's battered and shaken by the time we're done. Whether it's the newfound cunning of my minotaur brother or the arcane prowess of Kal, we adapt and we continue our fight with undeterred resolve. The sight gives me hope. Maybe even confidence enough to strike down a meteor...
 
...Zora's gonna kill me.
 
But that's only if Bel doesn't first. The four of them are committed to this in a way I haven't seen outside the Dark Lord's schemes. Anything for a chance to rule their circle once again, but the cost is beyond what they're imagining. Same goes for the Cassalanter's, though I hope there's some semblance of decency left within them if what we've heard about Victoro is true. It might be our only path to victory in this. The combined might of all three, with Glasya and Victoro and whatever other minions they've summoned to boot.
 
I will give my all to save that which I love. In Torm's name, in Heaven's name, I cannot fail now.
