Session 10
General Summary
Battle was joined! The Blackstar animates and chuul juggernauts rapidly closed in on Magma
Force, hemming them in. Morgan channelled the holy power of the dais to boost his attacks, while
his comrades focused first on the Blackstar animates. These dropped pretty swiftly, leaving two
huge chuul juggernauts to worry about. These lashed out with psychic energy, pulling their
victims to and fro. Their thick shells withstood a fearsome barrage but eventually they were
despatched.
When the dust had settled, the room could be better explored. Six statues of angelic beings once
stood together, now only four remained and the sight of the two ruined statues gave feelings of
profound sadness. The walls were decorated with scenes of a tremendous battle between an
unstoppable army of angels emerging through a portal and a horde of every kind of undead
imaginable. The huge figure of Timesus stood in the centre of the conflict.
Double doors led onwards. These were extremely heavy and required all of Gotrek's considerable
strength to budge. Beyond, a passage led to a T junction, dominated by a large dragon's head
statue. Upon venturing into the corridor, the dragon's head emitted a large blast of fire. Scouting to
left and right revealed further statues of angels, which unleashed further magical attacks when
approached. The route to the left led to a series of huge steps descending towards a strange portal.
The route to the right led to the same portal but via a 25' vertical drop instead. Yet more Blackstar
animates swarmed around the portal, guarding a figure who could only be Elder Arantham of the
Ashen Covenant.
Braving the magical blasts from the statues, Magma Force gathered on a ledge and prepared
themselves for battle. Elder Arantham and some animated skulls unleashed magical attacks from
afar, with Camero returning fire. Harley and Sora made an initial foray into the room, with
Morgan and Gotrek poised to plunge in and join them.
What tricks has Elder Arantham up his sleeve to thwart Magma Force and what is the portal?
