You stare at the spines on the dragon's back as it roots through the collapsed remnants of the Executioner's home. On the bright side, it doesn't seem to have noticed you yet. Plus, with Khmedi destroyed, you probably don't have to worry about killing Chrys' husband. Unless he was out of the village, for some reason, which would really just be your luck. The entire village destroyed and the only survivor was the man you need to kill. Hopefully that's not the case.

You suppose you could go up there and check the bodies to see if you can't find your man, or search for survivors to ask about Chrys' husband. What was the man's name? It takes you a moment to recall, but you're fairly certain it was Mazhar. He was the guard who harassed you when you first approached the city's gates and who later attacked you in the streets. It all seems so long ago, you barely remember the man.

Another plume of flame shoots skyward, though you can't see the dragon's head. How would one even go about fighting something that large? You doubt Fire magic would do much of anything against it. You're not optimistic about Water magic either. Perhaps Earth magic might erode its scales and thus allow you to injure the thing? The scales on its belly seemed like they might have been thinner and finer. Perhaps you might be able to wound it there? Of course, there's always your shockwave sword... though, you're not entirely certain you'd survive using your shockwave sword.

From behind you, Regulus' eerie voice rings out across the stillness of the plains. “That is a dragon. That is not possible. What have you done in the absence of the Empire?”

(1/2)

You glance over your shoulder at the construct. “What have I done?” You recall your time in the Mines of Longia, poking around the dragon's nest and fiddling with ancient Rhynian technology. You recall your deal with the spirit dwelling beneath the Temple of Pani, and the dragon's heart you gave to it. After a moment's contemplation, you blurt out. “I've done nothing! This is probably the result of some Rhynian device malfunctioning and forcing the dragons out of wherever it was they were hiding. Don't go pointing fingers at me!”

Regulus lets out a harsh burst of static. “All that is produced by the Empire is without flaw. That is not important at this very moment. I predict that should we stay her for much longer we will soon be rendered inoperable. We ought to leave as soon as possible.”

Guys, don't be retarded. If we search for survivors we can ask them about the guy we need to kill and confirm he's dead that way.

Well, we might be able to egg the dragon on and get it to burn more of the place.

>>39630748
>>39630725
there's a difference between taking risks and being stupid.

Approaching the several story tall dragon that just destroyed a small city/village and could kill us on a whim is stupid.

Miks not that crazy.

>>39630789
Well, we can apparently speak to dragons.

I'm curious about that now. And I just remembered we speak different languages.

Maybe it would like to play a game of charades.

>>39630789
Eh, we can just channel some vys into our cloak to protect ourselves from most things.
Also we're a water GM and fire master, we have a decent chance to survive this.

>>39630823
Also, if things get really bad we can just whip out the sword, protect ourselves with metal magic, reverse the cloak and destroy his ass.

>>39630789
>there's a difference between taking risks and being stupid.
Like stealing a fully grown mother dragon's eggs, making deals with spirits and fucking with them, putting on a mask that belonged to a cult trying to revive a dead god, sitting on chair belonging to a contraption that sticks a needle in your neck, touching so much shit we don't know the nature of, etc?

Fuck off.

>>39630714
Looks like the worst possible option won. Could we at least do it from a distance like 100 meter away?
>>39630823
There are two dragons in the area dumbass.

>>39630840
We didn't know the mask belonged to a cult trying to revive a dead god.

Just finished reading the archives. I have your address Soma. End this quest and I'll slit your throat while you sleep.

>>39630714
Oh for fuck's sake. At least give us the option to do so from a bit away.

>You really should search for survivors in the surrounding area, people who fled when the attack started.

>>39630820
You can speak to Zahak, but the dragon you 'spoke' with outside of Anthus didn't understand you. It was just confused by the fact that you were apparently intelligent, to some degree at least. You have absolutely no idea what the dragon actually said. The elder dragon beneath the Mines of Longia could speak with you, but that's because it's an ancient magical beast with a mastery of Nature magic.

You don't have to apologize, just drop the trip, which you did.

Get in range for telepathy- I doubt we can talk from a mile away.

We should tell SK to start building some weapons that could take down dragons or something.

>>39630924
They use Earth magic anon it wouldn't protect from them.

You are this stupid. Dragons care a lot about what happens to their own and that would mean Mama dragon will be coming for our head. Why does does that matter because nothing short of a physical god Varvar could fight that.

>>39630995
How do you know this guy knows earth magic, and how do you know he knows how to use it in that particular manner?

I say there's no harm in trying to talk to it by combining earth and nature.

>>39631094
All dragons are born knowing Earth magic.
>>39631139

We could go try to talk to them

They're already rampaging and eyeing cities up

Something has to be done soon

You turn your attention away from Regulus and towards the distant form of the dragon as it rampages through the shattered remnants of the village. “I'm going to go talk to it.” You finally decide.

Regulus lets out another burst of static. You wonder if that's his way of expressing annoyance? “That is not logical. You will most likely meet your death if you attempt to draw the beast's attention. It has just destroyed a village without any apparent cause and presumably slaughtered its populace, it will not hesitate to do the same to you.”

You ignore him, instead digging your heals into your guar's sides. She takes off at a full run, claws scraping against the road's ancient paving stones. After several seconds you notice that you don't hear Regulus following you, so you pull up on the reins and turn yourself to face him. He sits exactly where you left him, watching you. “Are you coming, or am I doing this alone?”

Regulus responds after a long pause. “You are going alone. I am not capable of fighting a dragon that size and remaining functional. I will wait here for six hours, if you have not returned at that time I will assume that you have perished and go my own way.”

You frown, but you're not to be deterred. Turning your guar once more to face the village you dig your heels in. As you ride towards the village, you reach out to Chryssa via the brooches. {Chrys, there's been a complication. Your village has been burned down by a dragon, a large dragon. I'm relatively certain your husband is dead, because the entire village is ruined. I'm going to see if I can't communicate-}

We don't know anything about dragons except what they look like. Zahhak might not even be a true dragon for all we know.

Her thoughts force their way into your mind, interrupting you. {Do not approach the dragon, Mikhael. To do so would be foolish. If my village has truly been destroyed than I am content in the knowledge that my husband is dead. I do not wish you to endanger yourself unnecessarily.}

Before you can reply, you feel the brush of Fulvia's vast, alien intelligence. {If you can, retrieve a sample of the dragon's scales. I have refrained from taking a sample from Zahak, as the loss of a scale is typically quite painful, but I feel that with Mortia's and Thaddeus' help the scale could prove quite useful.}

>Tell Chrys you'll turn back, actually do so.

DAMMIT FULVIA, YOU DON'T EVEN CARE DO YOU.

>Tell Fulvia you'll try to retrive a scale, if you can.

It kind of is, anon.
It really kind of is, especially when talking about this specific dragon in this specific situation.

Let's fly a plane into it

>>39631687
With no survivors.

You pull back on the reins, your guar coming to a halt. You decide on replying first to Chryssa. {Fine, fine. I suppose I'll turn back if your satisfied. Really, I don't mind running in and checking the bodies if you'd like to be certain.}

Her response is prompt, coming almost before you finish speaking, and the tone of her thoughts carries with it obvious concern. {That is really unnecessary, I would rather not mourn your death alongside the deaths of what few friends I had in my village. Just return safely.}

Sighing, you tug your reins and turn your guar to face Regulus. Spurring the beast into a walk, you reach out towards Fulvia. {I'll keep an eye out for any loose scales but I won't be trying to tear one off of its leg or anything. By the way, how do you know losing a scale hurts a dragon?}

Fulvia's reply is careful and measured. {When Zahak was very young I attempted to pull free one of his scales which looked to already be loose, but he whined and bit me. I have not tried since, as I do not wish to cause him any undue harm.}

You feel a rising sense of paternal anger. {That is unacceptable, Fulvia. You should have asked me before attempting any sort of experiment on Zahak. He's my son, you can't just go poking and prodding other peoples children. Even if they are adopted.}

Your tone is cold and measured, though Fulvia doesn't seem to pick up on these subtle nuances. Blithely unaware of her misstep, she responds. {I would have asked, but you were meditating to reach Grandmastery in Water Magic. It seemed harmless, and Zahak is fine. I do not see the issue.}

With a sigh, you turn your attention back to the world around you. Pulling up on your reins you bring your guar to a stop next to Regulus' own. {We'll talk about this later, I've more important things to see to.} With that, you sever the connection and address Regulus. “I changed my mind.”

After his characteristic pause, he speaks with that inhuman voice of his. “I am relieved. Will we be leaving?”

>No, look for a good place to set camp for the night and wait for the dragon to leave.

SO Vatis Rank Metal Affinity (2/3 Insights)
We need to practice our mental fortitude.
and hit expert.
all 4 on mental then at master level 3 into mental protection to be at master level.
If we do all 4 of expert into mental fortification. I can see us earning a small passive. and build from then when at master.
And for our last one obviously a mental fortitude test
After 3 of mental at master we are a gm in it.
SO doing that + adding a Slow + 10-25 vys into mental fortifications. + our trait. And go into the gate to GM metal.
I feel pretty confident we won't get 2 points into our insanity like last time. and GM too.

Having a mind capable of withstanding being inside a body part of a dead god. Should make most things much cleaner for Mik. Easily live to 700-900+ with the help of his ring.
I want the epilogue of MIK. TO take Soma days to write.
Where he literately has to end the thread, and post the story some where. and a 20 post story of Mik's life after our adventure because he lived that long, and had options.

To GM in metal mind fortifications sir.
At least to my knowledge that may be the best way to do it.
And the slow + x vys into mind fortification is for a back up.
and i am sure even 10 vys into mind fortifications at gm levels+ slow should be a decent safety net. + our trait.

Basically.
It would be cool to get the armor + Mortia's weapon too.
Long term we will be spirit/entity slaying mik. If they don't negotiate in our favor. And jew them.

I want Fire GM by wrapping ourselves in a cocoon of suoerheated plasma, which we then make invisible,
I want Nature GM by cutting out our eyes, tongue, puncturing our eardrums, and encasing ourselves in metal/ice for total sensory deprivation, and then controlling a( or several) body(/bodies) made of plants as if it(/they) was(/were) our own.

Mind fortification and body fortification fall under the same aspect from what I've seen so far.

GMing metal is obviously about fortifying our soul enough to hold a polite conversation with a Child.

>>39632961

It's possible, but we don't know if body fortification involves soul magic like mind fortification does. I wouldn't be surprised if you were right, though, and what you're saying would open up a lot of cool possibilities like having a body in the void, modifying permanency (also soul magic) and most importantly talking to Ricky without shitting our brains out.

YES

>>39632908
For /fit/ I would rather do that via learning more indepth into our combat style. and every time we meditate we use meditation of forms.
More in depth we know our style = better meditation bonus + I am sure it would increase our fitness better along with more bonuses per experience.
So their is that.
>>39632961
>Besides having Adamantine as a trait would pretty awesome.
While that does sound pretty fucking bad ass.
I'd prefer to get a passive towards mental and never have to worry about it.
I am sure we could get some thing similar with more meditations into it.
+ we have defense point.
And armor if that fails.
If we don't dodge it completely.
Or learn bubble and use that
But meh I just want Mik so be able to pierce dragon minds with a thought.
And use that + nature magic to subjugate small animals. and work his way up to dragons.
Magic Mik the dragon whisperer/the mind breaker

It would take months before we rank up in our style.

>>39633177
>Do you even know what Admantine means?
I assume you mean towards skin.
So you're talking about body.
I want to not have to worry about out mind.
Seems like we've plenty of options to defend our body like I pointed out.
I understand what you mean.
But to ME personally I think it would be wiser to focus on our mind. in which we don't really have other options other than using metal magic to fortify it.
While the body we have an obvious alternative.
Armor.
Armor not enough? All that means is we need better armor.
Better armor not enough? Enchant that better armor to be even "betterer" lol

>>39633681
Over after 10 threads.

>>39633681
For merchant I feel we would have focused on magic a bit as well, but other than that the quest might have less exploring ruins and more traveling to places.
No clue about military other than GM fire.

>>39633681
If it was the same difficulty we may have been fucked/and killed off early on.

Guys.
We forgot about our double uzis.
We can kill dragons if we riddle them full of icepoisonmetalenhanced bullets.

Our ammo is limited, but it'll do for if we get cornered.
Also SK could probably make more bullets easiky but let's not do that because it'd break the game

>>39634060

>>39634078
Just enchant each fucking bullet to with something that explodes when the runes on it breaks.

>>39634100
Thats fucking crazy go nuts.

Don't we still have that scrying orb?
Why don't we just use that to figure out if the guy is dead or not?

>>39634078
Yeah they do actually, but they have shit rate of fire and accuracy problems.

>>39635371
I'm pretty sure it was /pol/

You reach into your cloak, extracting one of your folded up tents and sitting it across your lap. “Do you recall where that broken guard tower we passed is? It's to the east, in a clearing.”

Regulus stares at you in silence before ultimately nodding. “I recall, I have a perfect memory. Why are you asking?”

You hold out the tent. “Take this back to the guard tower and set it up hidden in the tower itself. If you're able, create some sort of screen to drape over the top of the tower so anything flying above wouldn't be able to see inside. Don't build a fire, but wait for me inside the tower. I'm going to go searching for any survivors who might have escaped the initial attack.”

Regulus slowly processes your directions, ultimately taking the tent and tucking it under one arm. “Very well, I will set up a campsite in the remnants of the guard tower. I will wait there until tomorrow evening. Do not do anything to draw undue attention to yourself.” Regulus spurs his guar into motion, twisting it around your own and riding it east, towards the mountain pass and the guard tower.

You spur your guar into the tall grass which surrounds Khmedi. It seems the most logical place to hide if you're fleeing from a dragon. Extending your senses into the grass, you become aware of four vaguely anthropomorphic shapes running through the grass. You can only tell where they are by the disturbances they cause, but it's fairly clear. They're not exactly being careful to avoid detection.

(1/2)

Following them are six decidedly bestial shapes. You can tell they walk on two legs, but they seem to have very strange limbs, long tails, and long necks. They vaguely remind you of guar, they're about the same size, but they're too different to be guar. They seem to be pursuing the other shapes, which you assume to be survivors.

It wouldn't be "immoral".

Think about it like this, you snagged your waifu with a dirty cheap trick, years down the line she runs off with some dark skinned magic slinging freakazoid, and then some months pass while you try to legally finagle your way out of the marriage but you can't because they (by law) need to see your wife's corpse.
Then a couple weeks after you stop trying a dragon comes and burns your home to the ground and everyone you ever knew or even slightly cared for, including that guy you didn't like very much but was kinda a bro to drink with and hunt with on occasion, so life pretty much sucks shit because you had to run away from your own home to hide from the devastation.

Then out of fucking nowhere that tall darky sandelf pops up on a guar armed and armored charging your lone plainsspread camp down proclaiming some insane quip regarding voidy fornication as he lances you through with a mindsoul reaping spear, and his freaky robot punches you in the balls before you die too, and that also sucks, the end.

Ehh, fuck 'em.

Uh...where were you going with this again?

And I wouldn't hesitate to murder a guy who is essentially a date-rapist even after a dragon killed everyone he knew or cared about. Especially if the one he tricked was a friend.

>>39635253
I think it's too late to worry about morality when we're likely the one who is responsible for the dragons leaving their lair and destroying his village

>>39635556
Oh shit, it's those mini dragons you showed us, isn't it?

Yo Soma would do Vatis do if they get Pregnant?

Do they go off on "Adventures" or do some "Research" for a couple of years and return with an "Apprentice" that totally doesn't look like them?

He never had sex with her dumbass. Also rape is such an overrated crime.

We should try to capture one.

Seeing how you fuckers never wanted to get a dog way back when. It would be nice to try to get a pet.

Basically, yeah. A lot of the time Vatis will claim that they 'adopted' an 'orphan' which they found abandoned in the desert. Since that's what people do to get rid of unwanted kids, toss them in the desert to die of exposure.
