25 - Temple of Diabolus Part 4 - 30-11-2017

·        Party face off against Diabolus. It is a hulking bull-looking creature that runs across the stone walkways on all fours. It is very quick, and very strong. Various sprints across the walkways take out Pitt, Greyson and Black Black the Blacksmith. The party whittle down its’ health and the beast begins to lose balance and fall into the lava, returning only to burst forward across the walkways and continue its’ rampage. Therin uses a Sonic Dragon Breath limit break and melts part of the creatures’ face.

·        When nearly dead, the creature climbed out of the lava and indicated it will charge at Greyson, who protecting his father, currently unconscious. Daibolis lurched forward and Greyson, using a limit break, corkscrew dives underneath the beast, sliding between its’ legs, and using Black Blacks’ longsword, slices the creatures’ ribcage open, killing it, and pouring divine viscera all over the walkway. The creature stumbles into the lava, extremely dead.

·        The ring of Diabolus appears on Greyson’s finger, indicating that he is the new Maester of the Diaboleans.

·        Everyone is healed and discusses next step. Black Black is adamant that he wants the light to resurrect his dead wife, but Greyson gives a touching speech about how he’d rather continue to live in a world where no one else they love dies. Black Black suggests they leave so that they can go to the pub, clear their heads and sort out next steps.

·        Party re-emerge in the prayer room, and Greyson announces himself as the new Maester. The Diaboleans, upon seeing a show from the ring of Diabolus, wave at their new leader, indicating they are pleased with the selection.

·        Black Black mentions that he reached the temple by flying on the back of a dragon, which he rented.

·        Party head back through the scorched earth and enter Hielta at approx. 8 in the morning.
