Grrr... What's WITH these guys? I know I've never smelled 'em before. I'd remember a stench that bad. |
|
Wait, that insignia on their suits... |
|
I dunno who they are, but they gotta be nuts to take you on.
I'll draw their attention. Then you blast 'em and- |
|
Nope. I surrender. |
|
Wait, WHAT?! |
??? |
......
Turn over all magical items in your possession. |
|
Here you go. |
|
That's my magical pen. Take it. |
|
But why?! There's only three of 'em. You could take these guys in your sleep! |
|
Shhh. See their vests? Those aren't padded with wads of cash, you know. That's anti-magic plate.
Don't do anything to get on their bad side. |
|
Anti-magic plate? That's what magic marshal uniforms are made of. |
|
Familiar, are ya? What, did you have a run-in with the law back home after pullin' some magical stunt? |
|
Maybe... Waaay long ago...
But this ain't the time for a trip down memory lane. We're in serious trouble! |
|
I've seen that insignia on their suits a few times before, when I was at the palace.
I think these guys are Ferrymen. |
|
Ferrymen...? |
|
Look. Just keep your tail between your legs and don't do anything funny. |
??? |
Object confirmed to be official Night Raven magical equipment.
Subject B shows no signs of hostility. We request you come with us. |
|
Yeah, sure.
But you better ferry me in style. I'm a delicate prince, you know. I get motion sick real easy. |
|
Ruggie, you're in charge of Savanaclaw 'til I get back. Keep things runnin'.
Then again, I can't be sure I'll come back at all... |
|
What...? |
|
Just hold on a sec! LEONAAA! |
SFX |
- sound of whirring, then something metallic crashing*
|
Board Game Club Mob |
- talking among themselves*
|
|
Erk! What is happening? |
|
AUGH!
I was totally winning that match. Now the chessboard's all messed up! |
|
That hardly seems relevant right now! This is clearly an emergency! |
|
Ortho, give me a sitrep. |
|
Roger. |
|
- sounds of analyzing data*
|
|
The school's barrier is under heavy fire from technomantic beams. it is already breached in several places.
Multiple non-campus bio-readings detected within school grounds. |
|
Intruders?! |
|
How many? |
|
Presently detecting 15 life signs, plus additional heat signatures in the air. Intruders may increase in number. |
|
So they got beams that can breach the school's barrier. What about their gear? |
|
Gauging from height and movement speed, they are either on brooms or technomantic flying machines.
They are also firing magic projectiles and electric technomantic beams. |
SFX |
- CRASH*
*projectiles and lazer beams being shot*
|
|
Based on the performance of their mobile apparatuses, and their technomantic energy circuits, this is Styx-made gear. |
|
Uggghhh, this sucks. Guess that means they're Ferrymen. |
