Amadeo keeps his eyes tightly on the necromancer, and speaks to Kay over his shoulder:

"There's nothing to learn. It's the Devil himself acting through that person. Only the Lord can deliver us from death. Any other method is folly at best and mockery such as this at worst."

He clutches the reliquary in his hand tightly, ready to allow charis to flow through it into the material world.

"Luckily, the Lord can deliver us from death."

The rider of the raven was quick about dealing with the fire.

Quote from: Bärbel
Fire on F2 extinguished.
The large amount of water defeats Animated Flame A instantly.
3 EXP

Leo steps forward and sheathes his sword for a moment before he grasps two water-filled buckets at once in each hand.
"HoooooOOOAAAAH!"
The right hand swings towards the raging fire, spraying a large amount of water onto it, extinguishing it swiftly. Those empty buckets get tossed towards the tavern so they can get refilled later before he takes one of the buckets in his left hand with the now-free right hand, splashing the remaining cinder and the animated flames.
"Show-off."
"Shouting helps me focus."

Quote from: Leo
Fire on R6 extinguished.
The large amount of water defeats Animated Flame D and Animated Flame E instantly.
6 EXP

Sigurd clamours to P4, bashing his axe against his axe against his shield, daring the skeletons to challenge him.

You could perhaps forgive Jonathan for taking so long to react to the mess outside. After all, the shock he experienced inside the tavern was nothing compared to what he saw as he stepped out of it. Walking skeletons, living flames, magic floating eyes, and actual dark magic... it was a bit overstimulating, all at once.

Still, on seeing the others leap into action, his mind came to the decision to file that mess aside for now to be reviewed at another, calmer, time.

He ran over to Bernhard, seeing the man rather significantly injured by the... later.


"Be careful, man!" he scolded, as he pulled some bandages out of his pocket and worked to stem the bleeding, "Running off heroically sounds all well and good, but you're no use to your town as just another grave to mourn."

As his hand pressed against Bernhard, he suddenly felt a wave of nausea pass through him, and even as it lifted, his body felt... strangely heavy.

Jon to Q4. Use one Vulnerary on Bernhard. Exchange: Jon loses 5 EVA/Bernhard gains 5 EVA

Don't worry too much about the one mistake, Smoke Mirrors. Your character was memorable for all the demonology and story writing.

I’m running a game/mechanics test called Fate/Mechanics Test. Feel free to check it out.

Quote from: Jonathan
Bernhard heals 10 HP.
The Contract of Exchance is made.

Enemy Phase

The vile being notices the approaching ragtag bunch of fighters and spellcasters, plus the foreign mortician, and turns towards them. Upon closer inspection, you notice that his robe isn't unlike those of what priests would wear in this region, albeit darkened and stained red.
"You who act in accordance to the will of humans."
He pulls back the hood of his cowl. You see the face of a man of venerable age, what little remains of his hair being combed over, a peaceful smile on his lips. Barry recognizes him as Father Lukan, the local priest of Pazin. But when he opens his mouth to speak, violet smoke extrudes from his mouth, destroying the serene impression.
"These are the End Times, my chilren, my flock. But fear not, all will be well if you don't fight against what is unavoidable. The Lord is the king of kings and the Sanguine Overlord is his judge of judges. Embrace eschatology, my children, my flock. My dear Baurus, let me guide you as I have always done so."

"What a glorious day for Pazin! My dear Baurus, embrace my blessings once more and you shall become hallowed by blood!"


On the other side of the battle, the skeletons approach. They're rather slow and uncoordinated, but still close enough to attack the frontline. More animated remains approach in the distance, bones rattling and scraping.
Meanwhile, an animated flame cheekily set the barricade closest to you on fire.

"Looks like the traitor is already engaged enough. Oh, well, I'll just put some bones to rest."

Move to S5, switch to attacking RES and attack the skelly archer.

"No man knows the hour of the eschaton. Not you or I. So quiet the Devil's lies, and perhaps by grace you will be forgiven."

Relic in hand and a prayer on his lips, Amadeo approaches Lukan, fearless. He knows the Devil is at his heart a coward, and his slaves are rarely better. Softening the protections of dark magic, such that the other hunters can strike true, should suffice.

H4. Attack Necromancer.

: Father...

Barry took out a bottle of medicine from his pouch and began downing it, before suddenly rushing the traitor, enraged.

: A'll show ya wha' A embrace!

Barry drinks some Vulnerary, goes to H5 and punches the Necromancer.

With glowing hands, the animated dead was dealt with swiftly. The bones collapse into a pile, but Jahid can see thin strands of macabre energy seeping from the Necromancer into said pile. Soon enough, his gut feeling states, it would rise again unless interrupted. For now, he could only trust his newfound allies.

Skeleton Warrior is defeated!

"A liar who fell from grace is still a liar who once served the Lord. The Lord is all-knowing, hence He already knew. And let the liar deceive nonetheless. God's truth and the Devil's lies are one, feeble shepherd!"
The rhetorical rebuttal was strong enough to repel the effect of Amadeo's prayer, but with faith strong and unwavering, it also protected him from the surge of vile energy flung at him.

Perhaps it was more fitting to let fists do the talking in this case. After a swig from his pouch, Barry lets his anger speak volumes. With each furious punch, the corrupted priest exhales large amounts of smoke and the necromancer could barely remain standing.
While Barry was tipsy, he definitely noticed something strange. It was as if he was striking a bag of flour...

"The monster still stands. / I'll not let that continue. / You must die, foul priest!"

Sasaki moves to H6 and fires a brace of pistols at the Necromancer.

Sasaki aims and shoots, leaving holes behind in the robe... but the same robe seems to hide a gangly figure, as no shot met their mark. In response, without giving Sasaki the respect of facing him, the priest raises an arm in his general direction and launches a blast of dark power, knocking the man from the land of the rising sun onto his knees with sheer force.
But by gathering his willpower and relying on his training and instincts, he lines up another barrage and strikes true, spraying not blood, but dust across the road. Not quite the killing blow, but a gaping hole in where he believes the priest's chest is located, large amounts of sinister smoke wafting out of it carried by the wind. Now the priest turns his hooded head in Sasaki's direction.

"Soon you will also be blessed by my hand, oriental fighter."

"Pazin's priest... How can a man of faith turn traitor while those he calls his flock still hold out?"

"Words aren't enough if you only twist them like this." Diving down, Bärbel let her lance make the next retort.

"Another one to welcome into the dawn of a new age. There are enough blessings for-"
His words were cut short as the raven descends and Bärbel cleaves the priest's head in two, large amounts of smoke ejecting into the sky but away from her. The body collapses and before it even reaches the ground, only the robe remains, the body scattered into dust.

Quote from: Bärbel vs Necromancer
Bärbel delivers an unkind interception!
Bärbel hunts spellcasters!

Bärbel attacks!
Hit: Autohit!
Crit: 2(2). Critical!
Ignis: 29(9)
Necromancer takes 33 damage!
Necromancer is defeated!

The vile smoke swirled around near you. A voice emerged from within.
"Ech! If only that old fool didn't continue to struggle even after I took over his shell... With my last remaining energy, I curse you all! You will never reach the Sanguine Overlord! And even if you do, he will effortlessly annihilate you all at once! MARK MY WORDS!"
Then, with an anguished scream, the smoke quickly vanishes into nothingness and things slowly become calm on your side, with the fires getting under control around you. On the priest's robe, the twisted colors start to faint already.

The Darkforce dissipates. Blightfog can now be entered!
Skeleton Warrior Bow A is fully defeated!


On the other frontline, the armored axe-wielder makes his move.
