The Wilderness

Saris tries a clever combo thrusting his sword in repeated feints and counter thrusts but he is unable to score a hit on the skeleton. However, Herod rushes over and smashes his quaterstaff into the skeleton and it collapses immediately.

Que looks at the arcane rune etched into the ground. The blade sinks deep and creates some kind of negative feedback that pulses through the barrier and shorts out another symbol.

Another beam of green energy strikes out of the barrier and strikes you dead in the center of your chest.

The foul beam leeches energy from Glòrendil and Harbek.As the beam hits Saris, you see a flash of white light intercept the sickly green energy. The light forms two beautiful angelic wings and from the tips of the wings a pulse of radiant, white light strikes into the nearest glowing symbol and erases it from existence.

Then Que rushes off and tries to destroy the last symbol but her precision is off. Instead feedback from the symbol slams into her and you watch as some of her blood is pulled into the barrier...

5 skeletons form at the base of the mound. They grab weapons and move in to attack.

You lunge forwards and grab one of the skeletons. With an unusual display of pure strength, you lift it up and smash it into another. Both skeletons shatter into splinters of bone.

Herord strikes out with his staff and body. One kick flies wide but the rest strike true and two skeletons collapse. Saris reaches out and grabs one of the skeletons and smashes it into another destroying both.
Harbek finishes off the last skeleton, smashing his hammer down upon its fragile skull.
Glòrendil taunts their dessicated corpses.

Thee green barrier begins flickering. It has clearly lost most of its power. One single green rune remains powering the barrier.
As if in a last ditch effort, a massive surge of green energy strikes into you.
