That's the thing, you could have made it a shared victory to some degree. Pguhyuh would have cleansed the world , channeling all the formerly corrupted spiritual energy into himself for ascension while it would also significantly weaken Cilber, allowing me to finish them off and ascend myself. It could have been a double win, and instead the rug got pulled out from under me!

[Dark One]

Pguhyuh ascended because he was saved by Jeremiah. Without him, he'd be stuck in freezing torment forever. Whatever happened to Reynald, who was standing right next to Cilber when the energy was released, wasn't described. The rug wasn't pulled out from underneath him, you just have to wait for next turn and see what's going on with Reynald.

[randomgenericusername]

I would say that at least you didn't die, but you probably wanted to ascend too, even more than I. Pguh still had reasons to stay in the world, like Lyirah, the team, the sentient undead he meet, his home, his master, etc. He didn't really "win" in the end, as he just lost everything else.

[Enemy post]

I just saw Dark One's post regarding the next turn. I enjoyed the turn, but I went ahead and wrote an altered version of Cilber's end where Dustan's suggested outcome occurs. If you want, Dark One, you could insert this into the turn.

Spoiler: Alternate Reynald ending. (click to show/hide)

[4] Pguhyuh's sacrifice paid off well! Cilber was completely cleansed off all his taint and corruption. In Cilber's weakened state, there was nothing to save him from Reynald's judgement. The Inquisitor's blade smashed through Cilber's skull and the Darkfallen exploded, releasing a massive wave of energy that cleansed the whole world! As it moved, undead, dark spirits and demons were turned back to humans! Everything that died, not only during the last few months, but in the entire history of Axewrath turned back to life! The taint of the blackened Sun had disappeared and a new morning dawned on everyone!


Reynald stood alone in the center of the room, surrounded by the ashes of his two rivals. Cilber's untethered life force floated in the air for those who could see such things. Cilber's betrayal of all had left his spirit with no resting place that would take him. Save one. Reynald reached out and absorbed the Darkfallen's former power for his own. With this and the mantle of Pestilence, Reynald was no longer truly a part of this world. Reynald conjured up his throne, looked over his friends one last time, and Ascended.

Oh, and can I read your spoilers now, RGN?

[Glass]

Dustan, Dark, please recall that all Reynald needed to ascend was Cliber's eyes, which are probably at the ground in front of him right now.
Just so that we all remember.

I had just sent randomgenericusername a PM with stuff regarding next turn. Nothing was left of Cilber in the Cathedral. Other places though...

[Smoke Mirrors]

So... do I have a body again?

[Enemy post]

Dennis walks over and pokes at the remains of the battle with his glaive, stirring them around a bit.

"Huh. I can't believe it. And that guy, too. Honestly, I pretty much thought he was gonna snake us eventually...But no. He actually did it. I'd like to say somethin'...impudent, you know? Somethin' to take the wind out of his sails. But no. I've got t' admit it.

Lysander saved the world."

Actually, you basically removed all of that. Reynald is now a soldier without purpose. In your own turn, you screwed any chance of ascension OR purpose reynald might have gotten.

Axeworth casted Aaron and Lysander back, just before they were about to say goodbye to everyone.

Don't worry about that, I always have a plan.

[Smoke Mirrors]

I saw that, but what do you mean by casting back, as in, I have physical for, again, or I'm cast back into the heavens?

[Dustan Hache]

Unless you become the new dark Lord somehow, it won't feel right. And if you somehow do, then we have the problem of reasonably killing you within 10 turns.

[randomgenericusername]

Probably cast back in the heavens, it was implied that you were leaving and didn't get the chance to say bye.

[Tiruin]

I sadly kind of felt utterly useless through all this, and the ending.

Hooray for everyone though!

[randomgenericusername]

You weren't useless at all. Pguh probably couldn't have survived for so long alone and it was good to at least have someone to talk to and interact with.
