Fireball - Success

SUCCESS

Sensing the imminent danger the ballistae poses, Arsus swiftly raises his hands, summoning magical energies within. With a focused determination, he unleashes a powerful spell, directing it toward the arrow slits and mechanisms that control the deadly projectiles.
The magical energy erupts in force, obliterating the traps and creating a temporary shield against the incoming bolts. As the magic courses through the hallway, the ballistae cease their relentless firing. The arrow slits are now blocked with debris, preventing any further projectiles from reaching the party.
However, the force of Arsus's spell also dislodges some stones from the walls and ceiling, causing them to tumble down upon the adventurers.
(The Party takes 2 HP)
Despite being shielded from the worst of the ballistae onslaught, the party takes some damage from the falling stones. They hastily navigate the debris, using their weapons and shields to deflect the smaller rocks. The air is filled with clattering stones, and the echoes of magical energy dissipate. Once the chaos subsides, the adventurers find themselves in the cleared hallway, the ballistae silent.
The door to the royal hall stands before them, and the remnants of the destroyed traps testify to their resourcefulness. The party regroups, nursing their wounds and adjusting their gear as they prepare to face the challenges in the heart of Axeholm Fortress. The throne room awaits, and with the traps dismantled, the party stands on the threshold of the next chapter in their daring adventure.
