looks like Cat will remain more dead than alive. Yulya burned through all her healing options. ok she still has the mp from the focus but that would limit her other options.

Yulya's certain that the energy of the throne is incompatible with mana pools for arcane magic, instead it seems to be more like the sphere Freya used or Ashley's crystal and able to channel energies from other planes of existence.

Yulya wonders what plane and deity is behind the energy of the throne. Nezzer must have some powerful ally to control it - much like Ashley and Freya do.

The remaining image erupts in arcane energy, mustering large amounts of mana to cast a rather advanced and intricate spell. A blast of cold air erupts from her hands toward Yulya. She has cast Cone of Cold.
Yulya is enveloped in ice, this time no one saves her and even her magical vest is no use, the RNG gods have spoken, she takes the full brunt of the bitter wind and is chilled to the bone leaving her with the shivers and only 8HP! She won't survive much else.
Before all hope is lost, Yulya sees M3gan return, she rushes to the caster's image and attacks easily able to dispell the image.
The true image of the caster is revealed, standing far south.
Using Action surge once again, she rushes southeast to the real caster and unleashes the true nature of a demigoddess on her.
Given AC12 M3gan's hits are guaranteed. She uses Charger and an ability called Slam Down, using both her two extra attacks, her third action surge and Nick with her bare fists, her foe is toppled.
Needless to say, she's not getting back up and her form slowly fades to another one of those reptilian, earless, beings. M3gan has nothing to sever the head or desecrate the body with.

M3gan brushes herself off and moves calmly but with adept speed to Cat, carrying her to Yulya encumbered, she sets her down at under Yulya's floating form and says, "I'll take care of this Ghoul, you take care of your friend."

Barely recovering from the cold attack, Yulya takes her won healing potion. She looks at Cat's body and lands beside her.
Oh dear, looks like even you can push yourself too far!

Yulya uses Healing Hands on her companion and turns to M3gan.
Thank you M3gan youre a lifesaver!



She hesitates for a moment.
May I use Ashleys potion for Cat or do you need it? My healing may stabilize her but I cannot get her back into fighting shape! And we need Cat here!

Yulya gets the impression that the girls are safe for now and gets a mental download of what has transpired with Alice from what she knows, there is a sense of urgency, Alice is indeed still in danger.

Thank you but I can handle the ghoul here. Please help Alice!

It's live! Though not much has changed except where Alice burned the treasure.

Much better!
Just returned from Easter Vigil, will answer tomorrow, gotta sleep now! Happy Easter!
