Saving the Sacrifice!

by Dahlia Di Mare

* Once Mal ran off to go and get Gabe, Struth decided to go one way and then Petros decided to go the other way. Just great! Mal had told us to stay.
 
* Mal came back with Gabe and asked where the others were. I pointed one way, and then the other way then shrugged. I could hear the doors to the tomb opening and another chanter came out behind the floating sacrifice. Then all of a sudden, for whatever reason, the 2 guards and 3 of the 12 chanters ran off down the hill. Not sure why but it must have something to do with magic as one of remaining chanters started babbling incoherently.
 
* Turning to Gabe, I mentioned that we should remove the sacrifice as this might ruin the ritual. Gabe flew off then used dimension door to move the girl out of the way. Gabe and the girl popped up behind us. Mal tried to stop the girl from sliding down the hill (as she was tied to a board) but face planted the dirt. Luckily I was able to stop the girl mid slide. I was helping her up when one of the chanters pointed us all out. Next minute, I was struck by lightning and so was the poor girl. I was able to resist most of the damage but she wasn't able to. She was burned on the spot and died in my arms. Sighing, I let her go as there wasn't anything we could now do for her.
 
* Pulling out the scroll from my backpack, I wasn't able to use the spell on it and decided to stick it into the bottle of vodka to use as a cocktail molotov instead. Lighting it up, I threw it at one of the guys. He instantly caught fire and burned to death.
 
* One of the others, seeing his friend die was not happy with me and then cast a fire spell which caused some minor damage. Gabe immediately came to my defence and cast his own fire spell back with the words "You shouldn't hit a female!" 2 of the chanters were killed with this spell.
 
* Another fire spell was cast my way and Gabe came to my defence once again. He flew down and cast a spell on me... I don't think it did anything but I thanked him anyway. With the words to Gabe, "Watch my back!" I ran into the fray and took down the remaining 2 chanters with my twin rapiers. There was only the babbling one and the lead chanter who was hiding in the tomb.
 
* Gabe and Mal were arguing about what to do with the babbling guy, I dropped my backpack and mentioned there was rope and stormed into the tomb to take on the last guy.
