!!!ruuuunnnnnnnn!!!

by Zith Zinyra

Ruuuunnnnnn... well, that was my initial plan at least. I should have lobbied the team hard but so be it, they eventually came around. We are in the meat grinder and though collectively powerful, there are just too many of them. My one hope, that the zombie horde would be as much a threat to the Chimera Crew as us, sadly did not come to pass. My mighty magic wall did help a bit as did Ozus' fire wall but it's just not enough against their sheer numbers. Like what care does a zombie care about life preservation? I think we've learned exactly zero; right through the fire wall into Ezra's spirit soup with not a care in the world.
 
And now we have to see just how they react once we all get clear. Do they have it in them to leave the keep and come after us in the open? Do they hole back up and take pot shots from safety? Do they just let us go and wait our return? I also wonder how they are going to put the proverbial genie back in the bottle. They aren't threatened by them but we did see the scuffle the other day. Maybe those were rebels, or maybe there is some magic control going on here.
 
Whatever happens, we all need a rest, this was far more than we bargained for. I do blame myself, I was the one getting bored running from their archers. I wanted a fight, just not this one. I know we can take this Keep knowing what we know, but we definitely have no real shot in our current state.
