xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 Aridith smiled. "Simple. Merely fight my champion, and you will be free to go."

"Either way, you and your friends will be allowed to depart in peace."
Spren of Kindness she/her Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 Kindness cringes. "Er, Fadran, I hope you have a really good plan."

"If it's potentially to the death, then I would like to say a few words. If you could summon Eric for this as well, that would be appreciated." Quote Oh goodness, let's see if I remember everyone...

It is taking the majority of my strength to remain conscious, but I manage. Edited August 9, 2020 by Nathrangking

Hen she/her Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) Halia drops her stupid royal illusion, and her elantrian features become apparent. It wasn’t working anyway. “I can help. I can heal you if you’re hurt,” Halia hesitates “am I allowed to come?” Edited August 9, 2020 by Hentient

Mist she/her Posted August 9, 2020 Posted August 9, 2020 Quote Vapor and Condensation probably won't be on today, and Herate's somewhere else anyways. "Good luck, Fadran! Hey! Nathrangking! You're awake! Are we allowed to help?"

Quote Indeed I have returned. As far as this contest of champions. I laid it out earlier. The quick version is that Fadran and the other Champion must fight alone. No one is allowed to interfere in the battle. The side that receives help forfeits the win. My character would not have that knowledge. Nathrangking mutters something weakly. @Mist Edited August 10, 2020 by Nathrangking
Mist she/her Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) Quote Yes, I know. My character is asking. I was addressing the room when I asked. Sorry. Edited August 10, 2020 by Mist
Nathrangking he/him Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Baalhan reaches deep into his mind and senses the weakness of his friend. He directs one of his arrows to fall from the aether before Nathrangking. A glowing arrow appears before Nathrangking. I see an arrow appear before me. I struggle and manage to grab hold of it. In a flash divine power rushes through me. I straighten up and my body loses its dying glow as my light is restored the arrow vanishes and I am rejuvenated.
