Suzuna makes her way down the corridors f the vessel, retracing the steps that lead her to the room, that felt of Jericha. She moves among the demons as though she is one of their own. it is one of her many mind powers. To be seen by those around as a part of the group. To those she passes, she would be nothing more than an imp or a wyrmtongue, scuttling about the ship. Those more powerful demons she could easily sense, and would stay out of their range. It is but a few minutes before she is back in the forest. Once their She is back on high alert, they’re dark creatures moving about the canopy of leaves and branches above her. Like with the demons she uses her powers to make them see her as one of their own. Or as something non threatening, something to be ignored. Still she had never encountered such twisted beings, so manipulating their collective minds wasn’t easy.
She is deeper in the dark forest, approaching the ruined citadel when it happens. She hears the sounds of the branches above her, creaking beneath the weight of those that moved above her. The slight rustling of the leaves, as they push their way through them. She feels a slimy like substance drop onto her shoulder. Hissing in pain she quickly jumps back, as the highly acidic drool begins to burn away at her flesh, painful white sores rise up on the effected flesh. Like bubbles rising to the surface of the water. They explode, releasing a whitish yellow puss, which eats further down into her flesh, before slowing eating away at the muscle. She wastes no time in curing her arm, just as three twisted monstrosities drop down on top of her. They resemble a cross between a botani, and a flesh beast. Yet they look emaciated their fingers like long gnarled claw like branches, reach for her. Nails like sharpened iron, rake at her armor and flesh, tearing away strips and chunks of muscle and hide.
Suzuna drops down and jabs her staff out catching one of the creatures in the face. She grins maliciously at the crunching sound she hears. As the end of her stall shatters bones, sending fragments back into its brain. Just as it strikes she releases a penance blasting the monster head from its body. It drops to the ground, steam rising from the neck of its now headless body. Just as its lifeless body strike the ground , she casts smite on the one closest to it. The holy light strikes it in the chest leaving a large crater like burn. The thing screeches and leaps at her, with amazing dexterity, and speed. It latches onto her, claws dripping with a unknown sap like substance. Jaws dripping with acidic saliva latch onto her upper arm. Pointed jagged teeth, like rows of broken glass, and steel, shred flesh, and muscle. Suzuna cries out in pain, as she takes hold of its mind and completely crushes it. Blood and bits of brain, explode out of its mouth, eyes, nose, and ears. It hits the ground, convulsing wildly for a few seconds before becoming still. The third prepares to leap on her back, but finds itself pinned to a nearby tree, by a huge halberd. It emits these high pitched screaches, which damage the ears to all those around it, as its clawed hands tear at the weapons hilt. It looks about desperate to free itself, from its pinned position. Suzuna backs away as a group of Felguards moved towards the trapped monstrosity. It spits a stream of acid at the closest Felguard, who brings up an arm to protect its face, and neck. The Felguard makes a pained sound as it reaches out with its good arm. It’s hand closes over the hilt of the halberd, as it does fel flames shoot down along the weapons length. Using its strength the Felguard brings the weapon up, cleaving the creatures body in two.
Suzuna takes hold of the minds of the three Felguard, making them see her as something that they needed to protect at all costs. Having a heavily armed escort, will make moving through this twisted forest much easier. With the three now flanking her she continues to make her way towards Reavrix’s destroyed citadel. Once there it takes her a bit to find an opening amid the rubble, that leads down into the depths of Reavrix’s underground layer. She sends the Mind controlled minions in first, she has no idea what could of survived down their, and wasn’t about to take any unnecessary chances. She had no idea if the one she searched for even still lived, if not she would at least find the body and return it to their place for a proper burial.
