Inside Building Six...Luke allows himself to drift off into a peaceful sleep!
[Dreaming roll: ?]
He dreams of the pedestal of the pink pyramid! He bounces up to it, a hand materializing on his arm stump, and grabs it!
At that very instant, the heavens split open, legions of golden warriors spilling from them. They land in front of Luke and bow graciously, then load him into a palanquin and take him on a trip through the skies, destroying whatever he points at and bringing him especially comely chairs that are captured in the carnage! It is a moment of sublime happiness for Luke, and he is a bit disappointed when he wakes up.
In Bernie's inn...Yorinnsud looks incredulously at the drunken individual that seems to be attempting to hit it off with a cobbled-together abomination whose clothing is mostly still-moving octopus flesh. She walks up to him and lets him know exactly what she thinks of such a proposition.
[Yorinnsud vs. Band Member: 5+2 vs. 5-
1]
She nails him upside the jaw, making the drunk fellow lose his balance and fall down. His jaw is not in the best of shapes after this.
[Band reaction roll: 2]
"Hey now! We don't appreciate polite invitations being met with violence! Woman or abomination in the face of the laws of the gods and man, it doesn't matter. A lesson has gotta be taught! You don't mess with Spooky Dude and the Magic Tones!"[Band music roll: 5]
They start to play music! Wonder what it means... oh wait, what's this?
Every last one of Yorinnsud's limbs twists around her body, which limits her mobility quite a bit. She flops to the ground, a mess of bones, tentacles, metal and fleshy bits. The dudes play for a bit longer, then stop on a high note. The leader speaks once more, shaking his finger at the feminine creature.
"Okay, I want you to lie there for a while and think about why exactly you should respond with a simple "no" rather than a punch when you don't want to dance. Meanwhile, we'll be leaving. Come on, Spooky Dude!"Spooky Dude and the Magic Tones make their exit, the punched guy holding his jaw with a pained expression. Yorinnsud is left on the ground, quite paralyzed right now.
Meanwhile,
Mark has already gone to the basement in order to find that necromancer guy. He finds him to indeed still be there and in rather good condition, currently inspecting a barrel of what Mark presumes to be virgin blood. Lots of virgin blood. Bernie turns to Mark.
"I don't see any virgins in your hands. I need those virgins, minion! It is vitally important to my strategy!"He looks dreadfully impatient and not very chill at all. How unfortunate.
Elsewhere in Emlocke...Tom just rests himself on the horribly mutilated thing he calls a body and enjoys the sweet flames.
[Fire control roll: 1+
1]
Ooh, it seems to be picking up in power again! And a new block of buildings seems to be catching fire. Talk about a sudden twist!
[Fire control roll: 2]
And it keeps on burning and burning. Yep. That block is definitely on fire as well. Maybe somebody should create a fire department here.
[Fire control roll: 4]
After a while, the fire once again calms down. Probably due to the lack of wind.
[Fire control roll: 6+1]
It proceeds to go out entirely after a short while as it runs out of extremely flammable wooden houses to burn. Damn you, stone architecture!
