The End (Kreet 31)
Her eyes went wide for a moment as she saw him turn towards the Mind Flayer. It turned to face him just as he held his hands up, and she shut her eyes tight. Through her lidded eyes, the light was still quite impressive. Fortunately it lasted only a...
Distraction (Kreet 30)
She knelt on the floor, feeling the minds of the four men gone now after her ordeal - her 'revelation'. She held her hands over her head and would not open them. She knew what she would see, and she couldn't stand it. The horror in the eyes of her...
Truth (Kreet 29)
Suddenly Kreet no longer was in the cavern with the Mind Flayer. She was, however, in a cavern. She knew she was far, far away from where she had been. Miles... Years... Decades. She wore armor, and under that she wore a chain mail shirt. She wielded a...
Behold (Kreet 28)
The three proceeded across the blood-stained floor to an open archway. They passed within into utter blackness which only Kreet could lead them through. Karl still carried his small mace, but they had no power left to illuminate it with. For his part,...
Lazy Bastard (Kreet 27)
"But Karl, you must be exhausted. We have no time to rest and replenish our spells either," Kreet protested. "You're right Kreet, I'm done. My power is all but gone. That Blade Wall took all of it. But you have more Kreet. A lot more. I felt it in...
Blades (Kreet 26)
She recovered quickly though the pain in her hand was excruciating. She had no time to figure out what was going on behind her. Karl was down and likely bleeding to death. Mekelson and Quint were on their own for now. She gritted her teeth and broke...
Arrows (Kreet 25)
Bob's eyes opened and seemed to burn with an internal fire that mimicked the flames in the Brazier above their heads. The creature stood up, half again as tall as a man and bellowed with a sound that made Kreet put her hands to the sides of her head....
Meeting Bob (Kreet 24)
"Thanks Kreet," Mekelson said, taking the skin from the little kobold. "Stupid of us to come unprepared." Kreet laughed, "Hey, I'm the one still dressed like this! Think I can seduce the demon?" "I wouldn't count on it," Quint said, taking the water...
Traps (Kreet 23)
To say they walked stealthily deeper into the caverns would be a lie. The Knight clanged along with all the stealth of a rattling cart and, while the Paladin's armor was of a finer build and lighter alloy, it was no less noisy. They would not have the...
Entrance (Kreet 22)
The morning sun hadn't yet risen when they stopped. "This way," Mekelson guided them as they climbed down off the wagon and tethered the horses. "You've been here before?" Kreet asked as she hopped down, slapping Kevin's hand away again...
Ghosts (Kreet 21)
It was well past midnight when they pulled up to the wood where the shack Kreet had grown up in stood. The path was overgrown, but Kreet had no problem working her way in with her night vision, while she had the others stay behind. She'd never believed...
Vosa (Kreet 20)
"But, I thought he was at the Monastery! Or had started his Apostlate by now anyway," Kreet said as they ran back through the path in the woods. "He left the day after you, Kreet," Karl said, hobbling as best he could along the rough path. "He thought...
