For Those Forgotten Heroes at Castle Lesismoore:
The situation is as follows:
Vincent had been relieved of one of the little demons by Marcos who was experimenting on the portal. Such experiment ended in the death of the summoned ugly. He parried against an attack by one of the remainder's vicious claws which resulted in the severing of that limb while Vincent bore down on its head in a counter-strike. The move proved fatal for the little beast while the third one jumped on Vincent from behind and began to chew on him. It weight knocked Vincent to the ground and under the the murky water that continued to seep up from the break in the stone floor. In fact, as the castle too on more water, the whole castle shifted slightly, rocking to one side and seeping a bit deeper into the swamps.
Meanwhile, Yevaud fought with his might against a tireless creature who prided herself as being a master at sword-play. She was baring down on Yevaud for the killing strike and Yevaud knew this...she wanted him to...and just as she was about to send three longswords into his body, the castle rocked to one side and sunk a few inches, knocking the balance off of the Marilith's attempts, making her catch herself to steady her huge body...and this opened up the opportunity of gold for the more nimble elf who was lighter on his feet than even a normal elf fighter,,,for he was a bladesinger.
Anarrima concentrated on commanding her lantern archon. She felt the tremor in the castle and the shift of weight made everything lean to one side and then the feeling of sinking did not help matters...but Anarrima was able to catch herself from falling and command the archon to attack now with its Light Ray spell. The Light Archon focused on the enemy and shot her with Light Ray. The marilith now had to worry about balance and the attack from the foul little bug.
That leaves Tao and Marcos; two would-be heroes of the day who have managed to live this long against possible odds. What would they do now?
