The battle was hot and fierce, and raged for many minutes. Alexander and Gorgar had foolishly attracted the attention of Kaolai's entire retinue, and much dying had ensued. But eventually, as Kaolai beheaded a jagged horror with a roar, he was decimated in the ensuing death nova.
Alexander stopped a moment to check the situation. "Someone ressurrect Liva and Liva, please. And we should probably resurrect the Master, too, ev even if he get a bit over eager a moment ago." He turned to walk, but a stopped a moment later to the deafening silence of no resurrecting happening.
"Please don't tell me the Livia twins were the only one's with res skills, " Alexander asked. Mhenlo and Togo looked on sheepishly.
"Well, we still have a few minions left. We only need to take down Vizu. Perhaps we can focus fire on him with our party of five and snatch victory yet," suggested Gorgar.
And so the badly decimated party proceeded to assault Vizu, ploughing slowly through patrols of bloated rangers before a final rush on Vizu. A lucky placement of Mark of Pain saw the majority of Vizu's Afflicted army go down in a blur of yellow fourty two's, and the ensuing soul explosions took down the rest of the minion army, together with their necromancer masters. Only Vizu, Gorgar and Alexander remained.
Time seems to slow as Vizu launched a mighty assault on Gorgar. But Gorgar did not stand by idly, and began to fire arrows so fast that his bow appear to smoke. Alexander watched in stunned amazement as Gorgar and Vizu struck one another down, then turned to clap Togo on the back as he waited for the victory cutscene to wash over him.
It didn't.
In dispair, he watched as three more high level afflicted patrolled Vizu's former playground, seemingly oblivious to the chaos that had ensured a moment earlier.
"Uh..." said Alexander. Then he closed his eyes and charged, hoping that Mhenlo and Togo would be better suited to healing than resurrection. They were. And both Alexander and Gorgar resolved to remember the value of bringing res skills on missions.
Which they promptly forgot three minutes later at the Eternal Grove.
