"You're a very grumpy tree."
Pick a plum from the tree and eat it.

Try to push buttons on the glass cube to make it form a shovel.
Then cast three spells. If I have a decent shovel then create summoning essences, otherwise summon a shovel.

Two more aether essences. And see if I can have the abomination make an essence.

"Great. I'll make the path for us now."

Ice path! Add an essence (+POT) and two (+CMP) for solidness.
If successful - go and carefully pick the fruit.

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

It's time for the ATHATH Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.

Turn 49

Continue onwards to the warp thing

SPD [(5)/2+1=3.5]
LUCK [7]


As soon as Romanticarnus steped on the final hill, it became obivious for him that warp was certainly involved here. Salt fields were something he had not seen before, but the fleshy growth up ahead looked like something of Tzeench, though somewhat too uniform. Probably the consequence of locked away magical plane. Sorceror could feel warp powers seeping through from the field of tongues, seeking out the source proved easy. A warp rift, barely few meters in size, was spewing out power of immaterium.

"Oh dear. Really? I would leave peaceably, if you would let me, you know. So be it."
Etszu Warps their eyes/light spots/whatever they use to see into nonexistence. 2 essence.
((How big are these things, anyway?))

SPD [5] vs [1-1=0] vs [5-1=4]
CMP [6+2=8]
POT [4+2+1=7]


Estzu was first to move, his usual speed increased by adrenaline that is caused by pair of 3m tall trees expresing desire for your death. Using reserve powers he warped away entire heads off the two treants. Being plants, instead of dying treants began trashing around wildly, trying to find offending mage with their long arms.

"You're a very grumpy tree."

POT [2]


After sampling a plum which proved delicious, James dediccated his time to aquiring a ddigging implement. Glass contraption seems to comply for once, as a bit of tinkering later mage held an excelent shovel in his hands.

"Oh it's Hlamodysa! What amazing find! Eating it grants water breathing, and to boot it is very rare, making it very valuable. Man, you are rich now!"

By Kahels command, water between him and whirpool freezes into huge chunks of ice.The chunks are large enough for a man to stand on without sinking, yet they are somewhat less reliable than a monolithic ice bridge. Nevertheless, they remain in place after a few hard test kicks, allowing Kahel to safely collect four Hlamodysa fruits.

Now for something different, try to apply the mobile (-2) modifier to the force spear I have.
Two more aether essences. And see if I can have the abomination make an essence.

Duo of mages continued their experiements. Crimson atempted to enchance his spear further by giving it ability to move by magical means. While he conjured the spell corectly, mage underestimated power required for such spell and spear barely moved. Jase meanwhile, atempted and suceeded to force the abomination to do something. On command, hideous creature forged it's magical power into a solid reserve form, creating a psionic essense.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

"Now, time to run at least a semi-detailed analysis on the warp of this area. Now first to see the major powers of the area......."

Do the above. First the warp 'gods' that have the highest influence in the area, also including the major 4 'gods' of the warp. Then what else my character can get from this warp without going mad or being possessed by daemons or anything like the above 2.
