I don't know how close they are so maybe a little defense? I thought that orb thingy boosted us some too. I could be wrong.  Lolololol 

 

 

[Millon]

We take a defensive stance! Give them the opportunity to see what would happen if they push their assault. 

[Ithillian Turambar]

Well we need to decide. Try the Orb or adopt a defensive stance

[Ithillian Turambar]

We choose to use the Orb

 

*****

 

Description of the Story:
You raise the Orb of Purity, allowing its calming energy to wash over the chamber. The blue light pulses outward in a soft wave, momentarily halting the advancing constructs. The swirling energies of the orb wrap around you, fortifying your focus and slowing the movements of the constructs. As the water magic resonates with the Orb’s presence, you feel more in control of the battlefield, and the creatures seem slightly less aggressive under its influence.

2. Attempt to subdue them without violence.
3. Use both Aqua Surge and the Orb together for a final powerful move.

Description of the Story:
Summoning all your focus, you raise the Orb of Purity in one hand and channel Aqua Surge through the Shimmering Amulet in the other. The combined force of relic and spell unleashes a radiant surge of water magic. The wave crashes into the remaining constructs with immense force, their forms flickering before dissolving into harmless pools. The chamber quiets, the glow from the pedestal dimming as the trial comes to an end.

A gentle warmth fills the chamber as the Guardian’s voice echoes once more:
"You have mastered the Trial of Water. The strength of your spirit and command over the element has grown."

SMASH KILL DESTROY LOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ithillian Turambar]

Ok we inspect the pedestal

 

*****

 

Description of the Story:
Curious about what more the pedestal may reveal, you approach and study its surface closely. The once faint carvings now shimmer faintly with silver-blue light. As you run your fingers across the markings, new runes become visible—ancient glyphs written in the language of the elements. You recognize some of the script from your training: it speaks of a forgotten spell hidden deep within the Temple of Tides. A small crystal slot pulses beside the inscription, awaiting a key or relic.

It seems the Trial of Water has opened a path not just forward, but to deeper, secret knowledge... if you are willing to seek it.

Always lookin to find people to smash. 
 

Test and look for the spell!

[Ithillian Turambar]

I dunno guys. At the moment we have one spell and it's mostly for healing. I'd feel better about going on another quest if we had a few more attack options 

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Also need to keep an eye on our EP, another incident and we'll be dangerously low. 

[Aarenis]

I'm not catching up, I'm just gonna play in media res 😛

 

I guess I'll join Heavy and Gudrean in voting? Sheep them? 😛 

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Sheeping is absolutely not required. Indeed for Zander to understand the game we probably need to get a counter train going.

I was so tired I read this as 'sleeping' at first and was like "yeah that's why we're voting Option 1 yeah?" 😛 

[Ithillian Turambar]

I still think we should learn a few more spells before going off on a side quest.

 

A bucket of water is not going to be much help

[Aarenis]

...I'm gonna ask the Guardian for advice, I'm lost 😔

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Do you mean new elements as I thought we were voting to go get a new spell?

We must smash Them before They smash us!!!!!!

[Aarenis]

Guessing so? We seem pretty overlevelled wrt water compared to other elements.

 

I always liked Fire so I'm biased here, admittedly. The moment Rand started weaving a sword out of fire, I was like 'yo this guy slaps' 😤
