The power surrounding Mormesk spikes and an ancient clock forms over his head, the hands of the clock tick forward slowly at first but they speed until a loud melodic bell rings. According to the clock, 24 hours have advanced.
Alice suddenly sees Nezzner for who he is and is no longer charmed
Alice rubs her eyes and looks around, spotting Nezzner!
Heyyy, wait a minute!
Weren't we here for this guy to begin with? I wanted to set him on fire! What happened?


A rumbling sound is heard and from the crystal chamber, a set of three glowing orbs descend from above and approach.
Alice follows the conversation between Mormesk, the Spectator and Nezzner with visible annoyance. She assumes Nezzner's doing the same to them he did to her to trick her. But equally assuming nobody would listen to her anyway, she lets Yulya handle the conversation.

M3gan panther is watching this all unfold and with a sudden shedding of metal forms into Ashley's naked body, M3gan has returned. She approaches until she's even with Nezzner.
She looks amused.
Nezzner glances down at her and then looks away, "Ugh, the bodies of humans are so offensive! Have you no shame?!"
Alice looks confused.
Haah? Didn't you abduct those girls for exactly that sort of thing?

She looks at Ashley's body.
Quite alright, no idea why she's always so prudent. Not like she's ugly...
So girls - I think it's time to finish our job and eliminate the pest here!

Alice cracks her nonexistent knuckles and with Yulya's signal and Cat moving in, it's time to roll.
With the speed and ferocity of a mongoose, Alice charges Nezzner and attempts to grapple him and shove him pone. She expends 1 Ki point for flurry of blows, giving her 3 attacks to reach this goal. If she gets him, Alice fixates Nezzner and prioritizes keeping him from using somatic or verbal commands. If posible she'll try stretching out his arms for Cat to cut off his rings. If she has an unarmed strike left with her 3 attacks, Alice spends another Ki point for Hand of Harm.

Cut off his hands but spare his ears if you can!

I'll fixate him!

I'm not too optimistic we can reason with those 2 demented fellas, but reasonably, we can't fight them. The Spectator's skulls at best but that's it. We gotta take out Nezzner, hoping Mormesk or the Spectator doesn't attack us. If those guys try to eliminate each other afterwards, it's best to stay out.

The way I decided targeted attack works is, you lose advantage or gain disadvantage.

I say he has 4 rings, two on each hand, you have one shot to hit the hand, if hit you will potentially cut off the fingers in question. It's by no means a guaranteed maneuver.

If someone grappled and mobilizes him, then the successful hit will accomplish it without a second roll.

To lop off a head, you need a targeted critical hit or great RNG.

After an eternity I remembered a vivid dream!
I was sitting on a bench in a run-down park in West Asia. Maybe India. More wilderness than an orderly park. Definitely not Singapore.
To my left was a gate, and one by one, dinosaurs of increasing size showed up and were introduced. First they were just skeletons, but moving D&D style. Then they turned into flesh and blood dinosaurs. The first one was an small nimble predator the size of a chicken. An off-voice praised it as a good pest control as it would eat mice and roaches. It turned into flesh and blood, it had a grey hide ad a long tail. It disappeared in the bushes. Larger and larger skeletons appeared ta the gate, all bipedal dinosaurs. But most looked like a bad reconstruction from the early 20th century. There was an Iguanodon which was huge. It was a bit scary sitting next to it, and it made loud generic dinosaur noises once it turned into a live animal before it left.

Next an old oriental man with white hair and a white beard and shabby traditional clothes appeared. He told me he had a T-Rex and I should come check it out. We walked out of the park and into a harbor. Next to the water, cars were parked along the dock. Also shabby. And between the cars indeed was - a T-Rex. Or uh, sort of.
It was flesh and blood but did not move. It fact it was more like another car that had been parked there. And man it was bad. Think of a cheap Chinese plastic toy dinosaur the size of a small truck. It had 4 elephant-like legs, A huge open mouth with white teeth (clearly plastic) and a stupid looking short tail. Colored in an orange-pink camo pattern. Heinous. It was so bad I had to laugh and woke up.

Cat has no idea what is going on but finds herself in a quarrel between the scary blue ghost and the weird green eye monster and its skulls.  As strangely time seems to have passed and she feels refreshed, Cat enters rage again. Following Yulyas order, she moves clockwise around M3gan and 5 ft South of Nezzner and attempts to cut off Nezzner's rings  with a heavy strike of her Greatsword, flanking with M3gan.
Nya, I should have snapped his neck to begin with!

Someone changes their name in my system about once or twice a year.

Sounds Chinese.
When I was young, I briefly considered changing my real name when some Yugo neighbors had a baby with a very similar name. But luckily they moved away so I did not have to resort to killing the entire family. Or worse, changing my name.

Yulya facepalms, overwhelmed by this new situation and the conflict between Mormesk and the Spectator. She moves in and raises her hands in a desperate plea.



Gentlemen, Gentlemen PLEASE!
May I remind you that you Sir Mormesk tasked us with bringing you Nezzners head? We had apprehended him and were on the verge of completing this task when you demanded his release. By this I consider our promise fulfilled!

Great Spectator!
Your desire to meet Sir Mormesk was also satisfied! Did we not complete the missions you bestowed upon us? Have we not done anything you demanded by clearing this mine?

The cause of all the troubles is still here before you - the criminal Nezzner who invaded this mountain with his horde of bandits and monsters and caused great destruction! The criminal Nezzner who collaborates with bandits, monsters and goblins! The criminal Nzzner who abducts maidens of Phandalin for his dark plans! The criminal Nezzner whose pawns are nothing but lowly criminals who rob carriages and abduct orphaned girls.

Yuyla stares at Nezzner.
And you dare to speak to others of shame?

She returns to addressing Mormesk and the Spectator
This man is our common enemy - an enemy of law and the civilized world! You both were tasked with upholding order and justice, were you not? There is no need to fight each other! Both of you hold powers beyond imagination! The world out there is in great peril and needs those powers. Only combined we can fight evil. Evil like this man whonow calls himself the Black Spider!!

Yulya points as Nezzner.
Don't you see how he tries to sweet-talk both of you, plotting you against each other? Do not fall for his lowly tricks!

Yulya glances over to M3gan and whispers.
Show them your power and the crystal! Maybe they recognize your authority! But in any case let us focus on Nezzner first!

Yulya gives Cat the signal to attack.
She forms an Emboldening Bond between Alice and Cat and with one use of the Ring of Quick Casting casts Bless on her 3 teammates. When Nezzner is grappled and hopefully relieved of at least some of his magical items, with a second use of the ring she boosts Sacred Flame to the max with the focus and the goblin staff and casts it on Nezzner.
