Chapter twenty-seven

Proof Is In The Pudding?

For a brief moment my entire existence consisted of a black screen with a single blue notification window pulsing in the center.

Recalibrating Instance*

What? Dhaera’s quote from that Accords thing said they couldn’t change the instance once it was underway. There was that asterisk though…

Remembering the last time I’d ignored one of those, I focused on it and read through the entire footnote. It wasn’t long.

*Pursuant to the Divine Accords, section twelve point seventy-three, articles “A” through “C”, A System-recognized Dungeon or Tower operator is permitted to address scaling inconsistencies created by the addition of new party members through summoning, conjuration, or other means. Sentient and Sapient summoned beings defined in subparagraph “C” of Section fifteen of these accords are for the purposes of this section classified as a Party Member.

P.S. You’re not the only one who can read. –Hasael

As soon as I finished reading, the world resolved into a dark cavern. The only visible light was Lyra’s glowing aura, and even that seemed to be having trouble penetrating the lingering darkness. The cavern ceiling was only about three feet over head and the corridor was barely wide enough for a single person to stand comfortably.

Dhaera appeared next to me a second later and started cursing up a storm, stringing together profanities from Lor and Earth in a blend that was both absolutely brilliant and complete gibberish.

“—ass munching clown shoe fetishist too small to satisfy a gnome bastard!” she screamed.

Lyra turned her way in silence and then started cracking up. “Now… she’s…. not making… sense… either!” she said between breaths. “You two are going to drive me crazy.”

I chuckled. “Colorful language and a robust vocabulary is just one of the powers of my silver tongue,” I said.

She narrowed her eyes and pointed at me. “Save that thought for later.”

Dhaera purred. “Yes. I did notice that the room you chose at your home has very thick curtains. Thick enough to hide the presence of a certain someone from prying eyes…”

Lyra’s smile grew. “Yes. Yes they are.”

A glurping sound from beyond our circle of light drew my attention just as a glob of a viscous black substance shot out of the darkness and splattered against the wall about two feet from my face.

Lyra raised her shield and Dhaera crouched low, growing out her claws in an instant. Not wanting to be the guy who stood by and did nothing again, I whipped my guitar around and plucked out the starting notes of the Song of Quickening.

With a roar, Lyra activated her group taunt and then ducked behind her shield as a volley of at least ten globs flew in from our right.

Lyra charged in the direction of the thickest concentration of missiles and Dhaera was hot on her heels, running now that her normal method of rapid engagement was restricted by the low ceilings.

The light of her aura spread to reveal the source of the missiles: ten small blobs of a black ick. Inspect revealed their true nature.
