Prompt 12

### Results

The sages don't sense the sphere and have no knowledge of anything remotely similar to the sphere.

## Summary

As many of you approach the sphere your swatted back down by some powerful unseen force. The sphere them generates some barriers around itself between it and the planet. You hear a voice inside your heads laughing and then saying "Hah, pathetic, no wonder my masters said this world wouldn't be a problem."

## Prompt 12.2

As the sphere slows it starts to take the form of a humanoid, with flowing clothes made of the same liquid metal, but that flows like cloth. Its face seems to change and morph constantly. It bellows to as it sits in the sky, “Now that that’s out of the way, I’ve come to say that this world is now being ruled by the Council of Primal Power. You gods can just leave or go where ever you go and DIE for all I care, just clear out for my masters! Not like any of you stop them and we rule this world now. Hmm. I sense a few primordials among you. The three of you are welcome to join the council.”

## Areshok

> "I will start amassing an army of mortals providing training and resources to them in preparation for when we will need an army against this threat, specifically guerilla warfare involving magic."
>

DC: 15

Roll: 14

You get a small militia, not the turnout you would've liked but you are still relatively obscure so not too many mortals know of you. Their training is coming along, but it takes some time to teach them magic and tactics so they are only able to work at a basic level. As of now they wouldn't be much use against you let along a being stronger than you, but maybe with more training they can get there.

### Result

## Results

The battle was fierce, Faelar got badly injured facing off against Thylos alone and while Kreva was healing him, she almost got smashed. Luckily the foresight gave her enough warning to get herself and Faelar out of danger. Prospero was able to hold Thylos back somewhat but couldn't do too much else. Areshok's troops tried to hold him back but were killed almost instantly. While Prospero has Thylos preoccupied, Dërżiga bring down a his hammer filled with Malia's death magic upon Thylos and scores a powerful blow, killing Thylos instantly.
