[Group][Efthalia]: should we kill these frogs
Efthalia and Aconite stepped forward together this time. One of the bullywugs was snatched into the air by Efthalia’s wind (someday Drew was going to stop smirking at that) and another was rooted to the ground by chains of living darkness. Charnos floated forward and started making threatening gestures at the other two frog people. With twice the attacks coming in, his health was going down twice as fast and Drew was in a panic.
[Group][Aconite]: omg spears
[Group][Aconite]: spears
Drew spun the camera to see long wooden staffs piercing Aconite’s character model. And then glanced back at the health bars to see that she’d dropped from basically fine to basically dead in about three seconds. His HoT was on cooldown and he managed to get about halfway through a Nourishing Soil beforeAconite fell to the ground and Charnos winked out of existence, freeing the two previously incapacitated bullywugs to hop viciously in his direction.
He did what any loyal and courageous Hero of Legend would do. He turned and legged it, straight back up the corridor and out of the portal.

[Group][Aconite]: omg healer
[Group][Aconite]: y no healz
[Group][Efthalia]: i actually feel really bad
[Group][Efthalia]:?
[Group][Aconite]: If the DPS die it’s their own damn fault
[Group][Efthalia]: what happened
[Group][Aconite]: The frogs at the back had spears so the one I rooted could still attack me
[Group][Aconite]:?
[Group][Efthalia]: nerf frogs
[Group][Aconite]: Nerf spears
When Efthalia was close to running out of air and Drew was moderately certain that the frogs had gone back to their stations, he swam back into the dungeon, inched into range of Aconite’s corpse, and began to coerce the elemental powers of earth into releasing her spirit from the netherworld.
A second or two later, she popped up next to him and began the ritual to resummon her demonic servant.
[Group][Aconite]: Yay
[Charnos] says: Your will?8
[Aconite] says: You noob, Charnos
[Group][Efthalia]: hey your the one who pulled threat off the tank
[Group][Aconite]: Only because my DPS is so imba
[Group][Efthalia]: we trying this again
[Group][Aconite]: Definitely
[Group][Aconite]: Same strat, I’ll just move the marks so I root the melee
This time things went slightly better. They still all died but they managed to take a couple of frogs out with them, which meant they only had two left to deal with on their next run. And they went down fairly easily.
[Group][Efthalia]: wow
[Group][Efthalia]: this is kind of intense
