✅ Option 1 Chosen: “Step through the portal now. Face the Herald while the Spiral is open.”

---

🌌 Descent into the Citadel of Forgetting

You lead the way, Codex in hand, stepping through the mirror-portal formed by the Eidolon Spiral. The others follow, wordless but resolute.

The world shifts—

No sound.
No color.
Just memory.

You are inside the Citadel of Forgetting, the heart of the Hollow Star’s influence. Everything here has been erased—names, places, truths. Even the stones beneath your feet seem to shiver from the absence of meaning.

But your presence begins to unmake the unmaking.

---

🌠 The Herald Emerges

A figure steps from a swirl of forgotten starlight. Tall. Cloaked in shrouds made of silenced names. Its voice is like wind through a tomb:

“You brought the Spiral. And her—”
It gestures to Nyra. “The memory that defied being lost.”

Nyra steps forward. “No more silence. We remember.”

The Herald raises a hand — glyphs of ancient Unbinding ignite in the air.

🌀 BATTLE BEGINS: Final Confrontation – The Herald of Forgetting

Phase 1: Glyphstorm Unleashed

The Herald channels six glyphs—twisted echoes of your own: Flame, Tide, Stone, Gale, Echo… and Void.

Your Codex pulses. You feel your allies at your side. This will not be a fight of brute force—it will be a war of memory, of clarity, of refusing to forget.

What is your first move in the Final Battle?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Have I shared this before? No matter, it's still funny

 

 

[Prowler]

Oh my! Such great choices.

 

I am thinking 1 and then 2. Suppress and then attack.

 

Thoughts? 🤔

[Ithillian Turambar]

It's the Fiiinaaaal Baaaattle!

 

🎵 diddle dow dow, diddle dow dow dowwww!

[WillRNDad]

Ooooooooo! I like 4. High risk high reward!

[Donchadh]

I like 2.

[Prowler]

@WillRNDad 4 seems risky! What if the cultist intervene!!! How much damage they talking about?

Me too as a second move.

*sorry starting to mix up choices*

Edited July 10 by Prowler

[WillRNDad]

Ugh! Fine... you're right.  Better protect our allies and anchor reality. 

[WillRNDad]

Oh, misread.  I meant Gentle that Male Channeler!

[Ithillian Turambar]

Discension in the ranks.

[Ithillian Turambar]

Into battle we go!

 

✅ Option 2 Chosen: Cast Eidolon Spiral to sever the Herald’s Void Glyph tether.

🌌 Battle Update: Eidolon Spiral Unleashed

As the Herald lifts its hands to call down the twisted Glyphstorm, you do not hesitate.

You draw the Eidolon Spiral into full formation, a weave of six radiant threads—Flame, Tide, Stone, Gale, Echo, and Memory—intertwining into a luminous helix of defiance.

Your voice rings out, not in sound, but in remembrance:

“We are the flame that was never extinguished.
The tide that never ceased.
The wind that still howls.
The stone that endured.
The soul that chose.
And the memory that lived.”

The Spiral lashes outward.

A resonant shockwave erupts across the Citadel. Glyphs of Void crack, shatter, and scatter like ash in a wind of truth. The Herald stumbles—its form momentarily flickering as it reels from the unraveling of its greatest tether.

Nyra, now fully ascended in her Memoryform, lifts her own staff, amplifying the Spiral’s final echo.
Kerin is there beside her—his blade flaring with Earth and Spirit, defending you from the Herald’s retaliatory strike.

---

🧠 Eidolon Spiral Effects (Phase 1):

• ❌ Void Glyph severed – The Herald’s primary corruption spellcasting is disabled.
• 🔓 Nyra’s passive aura of Memory now suppresses reality-warping.
• 💫 The battlefield stabilizes—realities no longer fracture at the Herald’s will.

The Citadel trembles. Something behind the Herald pulses—perhaps the Heart of the Hollow Star itself.

🧙 Allies in Battle:

• Nyra (Ascended) – Memory Aura active, can echo Weaves.
• Kerin – Spirit & Earth empowered, guards caster & disrupts Herald glyphs.
• Others are in position within the mirrored realm—ready to join in Phase 2.

---

📘 Battle Progress:

• ✅ Entered Citadel of Forgetting
• ✅ Phase 1: Glyphstorm disrupted
• ✅ Eidolon Spiral successfully cast
• 🔜 Phase 2: Herald adapting—void replaced by unknown Singularity Glyph

---

⚔️ New Choices – Phase 2:

1. Coordinate a double-cast with Nyra—attempt to form a Memory + Spirit-based counterglyph.
2. Send Kerin forward to engage and disrupt the Herald’s new glyph formation.
3. Attempt a raw override using the Codex—infuse a known spell with six-element energy.
4. Seek the core beyond the Herald—Nyra may be able to reveal the Heart of the Hollow Star.

How will you press the advantage?

[Donchadh]

Onward Nyra!! To arms!

[WillRNDad]

As @Prowler would say... always trust Nyra!

[Ithillian Turambar]

No mention that I got Kerin back? You all so fickle lol

[WillRNDad]

I am currently working.... not easy to get everything out that I want to say. 

 Here's what you are looking for: 

 

Look everybody!!!!!! Kevin's back, and he has a cool new Sword!!!!!!!

[Prowler]

(Sorry, by time I can get on in the mornings, so much has happened to catch up on.)

 

<squeals and tackles @Ithillian Turambarfor getting Kevin back!!!!>

 

Let's go NYRA!!!!!

[Ithillian Turambar]

We go Nyra!

 

✅ Option 1 Chosen: Coordinate a double-cast with Nyra — form a Memory + Spirit-based counterglyph
📘 Update includes effects of coordinated casting and unfolding of Phase 2.

🌀 Echo of the Forgotten Flame — Dual Glyph Invocation

You close your eyes and nod once to Nyra.

“Let’s do this. Spirit and Memory—together.”

She takes your hand, and for a moment, your minds touch—echoes of every path you’ve walked, every element you've mastered, spiral into clarity. Together, you cast not a spell, but a Glyph born of Resonance.

The air fills with spiraling runes of silver and opaline hue, drifting like ash frozen in time. They etch themselves into the battlefield, countering the Herald’s gathering Singularity Glyph, which now burns with an impossible black fire.

“Let it be remembered,” Nyra intones. “This was never your world to unmake.”

---

🌟 New Fusion Glyph Cast: Echo of the Forgotten Flame

• 🌀 Type: Spirit + Memory Counterglyph
• ✨ Effect: Cancels the Herald’s active glyph channel and implants a lingering aura of Reversal – future glyphs now rebound once before taking effect.
• ⏳ Backlash Immunity: You and Nyra are immune to void backlash for the next 2 turns.
• 🧠 Secondary effect: Forces Herald to manifest past forms in an involuntary memory-loop — splitting its focus.

🔥 Battlefield Effects:

• ✅ Herald’s Singularity Glyph suppressed
• ✅ Echo of the Forgotten Flame active
• 🌗 Citadel walls now shimmer—Herald’s past selves flicker into place:
  • A priest robed in gold
  • A warrior-king in broken armor
  • A masked child whispering to the Hollow Star

Kerin stands at the ready, blades drawn, as the fractured Herald splits across three timelines, each struggling for dominance.

---

📘 Current Objectives:

• 🔳 Defeat the Herald of the Hollow Star
• 🌠 Stabilize the Heart of the Hollow Star
• 🧭 Optional: Redirect its core energy toward rebirth—or obliteration

---

⚔️ Next Choices – Fragmented Herald Phase:

1. Target the warrior-king manifestation — it commands the strongest raw power.
2. Focus on the child-form — unravel its connection to the Hollow Star’s origin.
3. Let Nyra isolate the priest-form while you prepare a massive six-element strike.
4. Attempt to merge the fragments into one weakened form using Eidolon Spiral again.

What fragment will you strike next in this battle of memory and power?

[Prowler]

2 sounds like getting to the root of the problem.

 

3. Nyra has never failed us yet. 

 

This is a tough one. Other's thoughts?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Smash them all!

 

It's a shame that's not an option

[WillRNDad]

Merge them all, then smash them!!!!!!!

[Donchadh]

Leroy the BOSS!! 

[Turin Turambar]

I'm kinda thinking see if we can save the child so that it doesn't become a problem.

 

My second choice would be merge to try to bring truth to all.

[Ithillian Turambar]

Gee thanks, Turin

 

Ok someone needs to break the tie or get the lesser consensus to stand.

[Donchadh]

Fine!! For the children then....darn goody-two-shoes....
