The voice of doom!

[eveglass]

Remember when I said last time that we'd finally left the fortress of the Lich Queen? Well, that was true, but we had some unfinished business to attend to. Like destroying her phylactery. Which we did last night, with an overwhelmingly large boom. Because if there's one thing we've learned in Voice of Doom Land, it's that there's no such thing as too much firepower.


[We discover a great many evil artefacts in the Lich Queen's treasure room.]
Andrew the GM: "If you guys want to change sides, you've got everything you need to be the dominant evil masters of the multiverse. Just saying."

[Sometimes, I truly do love Neyrr's way with words.]
Imposter Zath: "This is a stupid plan."
Neyrr: "When we want your opinion, we'll cast Speak with Dead."

[Instead of joining the rest of us on the far outer plane to destroy the evil artefacts, Azlo takes the Book of Vile Darkness and leaves.]
Andrew the GM (to Adam): "They're gonna hunt you down."
Julie: "For many reasons."

[Zath tries to come up with loopholes to get around Imposter Zath's plan to meld their minds in order to destroy the phylactery.]
Bob: "Wait, does he need his soul and his mind?"
Andrew the GM: "...Yes."
Bob: "Fuck."

[We decide to go with Plan A: use the Annulus to destroy the phylactery. Imposter Zath is not happy with this plan.]
Neyrr (to Imposter Zath): "If you interfere, you'll never need to worry about destroying the Lich Queen."

[The Annulus permanently destroys everything within several dozen miles when it goes off.]
Eric: "You have unlocked the achievement 'It's the only way to be sure.'"

[You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. And you can't destroy one of the most evil things in the multiverse without...]
Eric: "How many innocents did we just wipe out?"
Andrew the GM: "Enough."

[After destroying the phylactery, we have no use for Imposter Zath, who is in fact an illithid.]
Imposter Zath: *preparing to plane shift away* "Well, I'll see you guys--"
Bob: "I cast Death Urge."
Andrew the GM: "And then you see an illithid eat his own brain."
Bob: "I collapse in laughter."

[When we return to Shelezar, the people are waiting to give us a hero's welcome and grand parade. This is not how Neyrr is used to being received.]
Neyrr: "But where are they hiding their torches?"

[Gabriel should really know better by now.]
Gabriel Angelos: "Why didn't you come through the front gate?"
Lyanna: "Do we ever?"

[Our list of scapegoats is diminishing. This is either a good thing or a bad thing.]
Tchort: "Let's pin this on... No, he's dead."

[Azlo was not with us when we destroyed the phylactery. Instead, he took the Book of Vile darkness and returned the Dol Mosh, a legendary elf- and angel-killer, to his full strength.]
Julie: "Y'know, just when we destroy a bunch of our enemies, Azlo goes and brings us more."


So that's it for this week. Next week, we theoretically start two months of downtime. I'll believe it when I see it.

Dol Mosh - "Here have some lovely heirloom tomatoes."

Azlo - " They are quite good... here read this!" *slaps book of vile darkness in face of Dol Mosh*
