Notes and Crap (entry twenty-four)

by Eligius Yami

Well, it seems luckily, I survived our latest encounter with the head of the Goblins: Quickthinks Allthoughts was his name. I got to say, he was a mad tyrant over his people... he had to be put down. Little did I know his mastery over stolen Volcanorian tech, repurposing it to fit the power generated by the Crystal of Lightning. In the battle that occurred, he had a giant titan of metal about as tall as a fabled Storm Giant, and brute force to rival a legion of oni. Most of the time I seemed to have gained the Titan's ire, with his giant-sized fists hurdling their way into my magic defenses. Managing to hold, this bought time for my comrades, where they whittled it down.
 
Honestly, it seemed like a battle of attrition we would have lost, as our blows were barely making a dent in the thing, until right off the side of the complex, in the ocean itself was Zahira and a fleet of Gerudo ships, alongside Filea shooting her way out of one of their cannons right through the center of the thing, exposing its core. Honestly, didn't expect Miss Righteous to do such things, labeling them "reckless and unbecoming of her", but shows what I know. In the end, it was still a tooth and nail fight against this Titan, but with us coming out on top. As the old saying goes, the highest up always have the hardest fall; the Titan fell, and Allthoughts with it. Though the victory was broken up, when we found Allthoughts was still alive... his body was... nothing but a husk, like a "Warforged", or an animated suit of armor. His real body, was nothing but a disembodied brain in a vat of gooey pale blue liquid. Gothmog and I had the honors of breaking the thing, not after one last delve into the Tyrant's mind... overwhelming knowledge struck me, making my nose bleed and having a headache for the next two days. How did this goblin keep it together, I will never know... but as the brain fell out of the vat.... I sensed as the thoughts panicked, grew slower.. until nothing but darkness.. nothing. Dark, I know, but I simply am writing down my experiences as usual, Empress Novia.
 
To wrap up the goings-on, I shattered the crystal, some of my comrades gathered up samples, and I personally want nothing to do with touching it. I don't want my body to become further corrupted. I guess you can call that "Mission accomplished", the goblins freed... something barely connected to the Graveyard besides the one crystal. Can't we just dig around the barrier wall? It's a simple solution... I would suggest trying it.
 
Anyways, enough of venting my thoughts Empress, you'll likely have questions after you read this, just like the last few entries. Will see you soon.
