Log
King Fred tells us that the King is a shadow sorcerer. He informs us that duergar can create magical darkness and go invisible and gives Hiromi magic glasses to see in the dark.
We come to a door and don't want duegar coming in behind us so Cazin walks around and checks for problems. He should really stay with the group. Be safe Cozin! We then go inside.
"Well the murderers are here." Says the king from his thrown on the very far side of a large throne room. Cozin says, "You called us murderers, you know why we're here lets not waste time." And so the battle is on.
I charge up assuming the others will follow me as I inspire everyone with my beautiful song. Vreal runs up next to me and Cozin too, but everyone else stays back a little.
I thought for sure Sade would run up with me but I look back and Sade is playing with some magic dog. I give Sade some magical haste to encourage him to come help. Him and his dog charge forward.
The king tries running from Sade so he jumps to try to hit him but the floors are so slippery and he falls on his butt, but quickly stands and brushes himself off.
The king starts teleporting back and forth across the room and its hard to catch up to him.
Sade gets frustrated with the flying, teleporting king so he pulls out a grappling hook and yells "You will fight me!" as he throws it at the king and manages to tangle him with it.
Vreal throws bombs at him and the others try hitting him with spells as Sade tries again and again and finally manages to climb up to the king and hit him.
Hiromi dispells the flying kings magic and him and Sade go tumbling down at Cozin's feet who wails at him and kills him.
Suddenly the 2 statues by the throne animate.
Vreal tries to open the door but its locked with a key. Sade runs and grabs the key as the statues attack.
Hiromi takes the dead kings crown and puts it on. Looking right at me as they do it...
We all run out leaving the 2 magic statues inside the kings thrown. Classic king joke. Ol' king Fred will laugh and laugh.
Later we bury the dead king with his clan dagger, because its the right thing to do.
