Scene 5: General Forum
Scene 5: General Forum
Slartucker enters the forum just as Zorro combines iodine with Galactic Core to revive Lord Grimm.
Lord Grimm: I've changed my mind. Death isn't funny. Well, maybe it's a little bit funny. Anyway, can you revive the Silent Assassin next?
Zeviz: I'll summon his element, but that's the last one I can do until I get an energy potion.
Zeviz checks the list for the Silent Assassin's element.
Slartucker: Drakefyre, you're wanted in the Tech Support Forum. There's something loose on the message board.
Drakefyre summons some lawrencium, gives it to Zorro, and exits. Slartucker opens the door and leaves the message board. Zorro revives The Lurker.
The Lurker: Finally! I'm free to lurk once more!
The Lurker watches in interest as Zephyr Tempest summons some bohrium and Zeviz summons some astatine. Zeviz takes both elements over to Zorro and then sits down.
Zeviz: There. That's all I can do until I get an energy potion.
Zephyr Tempest: Oh, come on. I'm sure you can do one or two more.
Zeviz: No, I can't. Not without risking making a huge mistake. You had better watch your spell energy level as well.
Zorro combines the bohrium with Galactic Core and revives Demonslayer. Zephyr Tempest summons some manganese.
Zephyr Tempest: I know what I'm doing! But someone should go tell Ephesos to hurry up with those energy potions.
Demonslayer: I'll do it, I suppose.
Demonslayer exits. Zorro revives the Silent Assassin. The Silent Assassin bows deeply.
Lord Grimm: The Silent Assassin thanks you for bringing him back to life.
Zephyr Tempest summons some plutonium. He looks exhausted, but attempts to summon another element. Zeviz carries the plutonium over to Zorro.
Zeviz: What element are you trying to summon now?
Zephyr Tempest: Selenium.
Zorro revives Tyranicus. Tyranicus views his reflection in a nearby mirror.
Tyranicus: Looking good, as always.
Zorro revives Infernal666hate. Zephyr Tempest waves his hands dramatically. A puff of sulfurous smoke appears over the summoning platform.
Zephyr Tempest: That wasn't what I was...
As the smoke clears, a haakai is revealed on the summoning platform.
Zephyr Tempest: ...trying to do.
Zeviz: Oh dear.
The Lurker: Now what should we do?
Infernal666hate: Not even I would try to attack a haakai.
The Silent Assassin gestures frantically.
Lord Grimm: The Silent Assassin suggests that we run.
Lord Grimm, the Silent Assassin, The Lurker, Infernal666hate, and Tyranicus all flee into the Tech Support Forum. As Zorro is running, he trips and falls. His copy of Galactic Core hits the floor and breaks. He picks it up, scrambles to his feet, and exits. The haakai casts forcecage on Zephyr Tempest.
Zephyr Tempest: I can't move! Help!
Zeviz hits the haakai with a bolt of fire. Although the haakai isn't injured, it is distracted long enough for Zephyr Tempest to struggle out of the forcecage. Zeviz and Zephyr Tempest escape into the Tech Support Forum.
