The Players had delivered a punishing final round to the prone dragon. The power of the Blood Crystals had not been enough of an edge to overpower them. His own ability had not been enough to eke out a victory. And yet, Skalaugh was laughing. A deep, guttural thing that rose from deep in his chest. It echoed through the cavern - louder still than the water from the Lake of Reflections still flowing down from the floor above. His maw curled into a malicious sneer as energy began to arc from his scales. Blood-red bolts lashed out randomly all around him. Any object that they came in contact with was immediately vaporized. Skalaugh's power was such that he was able to bypass the Immortal Object protections of the landscape around him. His scales began to pulse with a crimson light as his laughter grew ever more maniacal. An obtrusive heat radiated from the creature - such that the ground beneath him began to twist and melt.

The Players had defeated him. They'd been so thorough with their disabling effects that the moment he siphoned the full power of the Blood Crystals, he was unable to move. But if that power had not been brought to bear against the players and the vessel containing it was about to break, where was that power to go?

Skalaugh didn't simply shatter like the Trebuchet or the Vanguard. Skalaugh exploded. Searing crimson light washed over the players. If just a single bolt of this power was enough to vaporize an Immortal Object, what chance did the players have of surviving it? That question was quite rhetorical.

The answer is none.

But, it seemed that Sundered Spire was not the only group of NPCs that had diverted from Cardinal's control. A blue-and-red translucent wall shimmered into existence between the Players and the explosion. It cracked and buckled under the force Skalaugh's death brought to bear. Yet, it held. Once Skalaugh's parting shot had finished, Betelguese and Rigel floated down from the floor above. With a snap of their finger's the barrier disappeared. The pair looked rather winded, but more or less no worse for wear.

"Good thing we got here on time."

"It would have been rather unfortunate if we'd let him kill you."

"Good show, you guys. Sad that our fireworks got ruined but I feel like this was a little more entertaining."

"For you, perhaps."

"Shut it!"

"No."

The pair continued their bickering as their feet parted from the ground. They rose higher and higher until they disappeared into the night sky far above them. A rather unexpected occurrence, but a welcome one. Skalaugh was defeated and the Players still had their lives. Perhaps that was the best they could hope for. That, and a certain preparedness for any further attacks by Sundered Spire in the future.

Spoiler

Skalaugh takes 1,153 DMG. Skalaugh is defeated.

Chaos abound. Awash in a sea of crimson, the players dropped like meteors down to the floor below. For the most part, they had been caught unawares. Caught in the current of the crashing waters, the P
