Happy to seen that the wraiths below are well in hand Gordon continues to speak with Semaj again. "I don't might, see you down there." And with out a further word Gordon disappears with a pop reappearing behind the Overseer. The Giant wraith turns around to face Gordon and it's cloak opens reviling a dozen insect like arms. Each arm is tipped with a scythe like claws.

"Well, guess he just doesn't like a good fight as much as me... Time to do it Petros."

Semaj mumbles a few words and touches Petros' leg. A magic glow shimmers over him for a moment. (Elephant's Strength) Then a few more mumbles and Semaj glows for a moment. (Hasten) He then takes a bit of putty from his pocket and puts it it his ears. Petros than picks up Semaj.

Petros speaks to everyone still on the platform. "I would recommend that you all cover your ears for a moment." Then after a brief pause winds up and launches Semaj at the Overseer.

BOOM! As Semaj was thrown it was louder than a cannon. Anyone who didn't cover there ears runs the risk of being temporarily deafened. Semaj himself heading for the now exposed back of the Overseer at a speed close to the sound barrier. A direct impact would surely drive the Overseer into a hole in the ground.

The Petros jumps off the platform over the carnage bellow and makes his way though any apposing wraiths to get into a position to back up Semaj and Gordon. One would not have though a stone golem could jump as far as Petros managed.

(OCC: Petros will take at least two or three rounds to get into place.)

Shan covers his ears as suggested, until the noise subsides.

"I need to bring... bigger explosions to the next party."
Shan frowns, feeling mostly ineffectual. His golems weren't doing much, hanging above the ground like this. Or at least, they weren't doing as much as he'd hoped. East Wind was still firing into the bunch of wraiths, finishing off a few which had been weakened by the other's magic assaults.
He looks at the pair of bottles in his hand. Only one set, for emergencies. It wasn't an emergency yet.
He was getting impatient, waiting to reach the ground as the group slowly dropped.

"Oh well..."
Shan shifts into a sitting position and moves his goggles from around his neck, pulling them over his eyes. He begins reciting a complex incantation, which sounds similar to the common golem activation incantation.

Masterslug stares down at the wraiths, while the wraiths not fighting spiders stare back up at the small floating group... some time passes... a few wraiths die, a lot of valiant and heroic spiders die.... some more time passes..... some of the wraiths starts to chat amoungst themselves others start to sidle away behind cover so as not to be picked off in the open, a few even look like they are starting to plan a wraith pyramid to reach the group although to the untrained eye they are just bundling on top of each other.

Masterslug comments to the person next to him "hmm this slow falling spell is a bit too good, must be a side effect of the rift, saying that, it's not like I'm in a hurry to face a wraith" Then to the group in general "any golems not got a spell buff? while we've have time on our hands".

Still Kneeling Gordon Wait for the overseer to get closer. The Overseer rushes forward and even as the load bang came from the collapsed ridge the Overseer crashed face first into the ground with a resounding smash. Mud spraying every where, literally covering Gordon and near by foliage in the wet dirt. And there on standing top of Overseer is Semaj. "Very nice but watch out." Gordon smiles through his mud covered face as the Overseer begins to rise. It's left arm reaching back trying to grab hold or Semaj (OOC: the overseer has 2 regular arms on top of the 12 or so scythed ones on its chest) Gordon loses sight of Semaj as the wraith stands up but yells, "Careful!" Even has a Scythed arm flys back around the wraith aimed at Semaj's position.

------------

With the spiders dealt with the remaining wraiths begin to float slowly upwards, not true flight, but it's now doubtful that the group will make it to the ground before they meet with the wraiths.

-------------
(OOC: Changed)
Having watched the Ridge fall and it's targets no longer as easy to attack. The Assassin move closer to the remnant of the collapsed ridge and looks toward it's prey.

Leaping out from the ledge The Yellow eyed wraith lunges towards the airborne party. It glides through the Air effortlessly and with alarming speed as some of it's targets begin to notice it's billowing form quickly approaching.

Alpha frowns a little noting the distance disappearing between the Magi and the wraith. As long as this spell is in affect, he can't move himself- but the wraith can get closer. Not the most ideal of situations, he muses silently. Still, less than a score wraith left in the area nearby- seventeen, according to MS's upgraded Lens.

"Lady Kyomi, can you alter Gordon's spell to either give us control of our decent or simply revoke it entirely?" he asks the most magically inclined Magus left- to his knowledge, anyway. As he asks, he hefts one of Gordon's orbs, then drops it into the center of the wraith crowd. Let's see what these things can do...

Kyomi looks at Alpha, then shrugs, "I could, but that would be a severe breach of mage etiquette ... It might also just cancel the spell and drop us on them."

Instead, Her Shadow traces a neat circle around Alpha, and with a gesture, Alpha lifts away slightly on his own personal platform. "Don't fall off." She says, "you should be able to mumble out commands, like up down front back."

Her Shadow gives Alpha a little push, and the golem is now floating beside Gordon's platform.

Semaj was able to avoid the Overseers left had by simply moving over to the right side of its back. This however was surely what the monster wanted. As Gordon's second warning was heard Semaj saw the scythe coming at his position. Semaj scurried up the Overseers back avoiding three more slashed before leaping from the Overseers shoulder and landing behind Gordon.

"I must be getting old finally..." Semaj commented upon landing. A forth slash had grazed his right side before he made it over the monster. Semaj turned to face the Overseer as he dispelled the haste spell he had on himself.

"Experience tells me we are at a disadvantage in this mud. Got any plans or are we just going to wing it? You probably don't want to see me wing it... ooh, seems like my backup is having problems."

------------------------------------------

Meanwhile Petros finds himself surrounded by 6 of the dagger carrying wraiths. Petros stares down the wraiths as they do him, both trying to calculate the other. Then a hail of daggers from all sides flies at Petros. Petros quickly pulls the tiger claws from his sides and as he does the strength spell that was cast on him was replace with a Haste spell stored in the Tiger Claws. He deflects all but one of the daggers with amazing grace and speed for a stone golem. The missed dagger whizzed clean though the center of the shin of this left leg. Then Petros by force of will pulls six stone slabs up from the ground, surrounding himself then pushed them outward one at each wraith. For one of the unlucky wraiths Petros' fist crashed though the stone slab obliterating the wraith into the ground.

((OOC: Feel free to control the wraiths fighting Petros too Gordon.))

The gem golem Precious springs to action in a blur, stepping behind Laidan just in time to have a flying yellow dagger lodge deep in her adamantine arm, instead of in Laidan's back. Lacking any ranged weaponry she is helpless to do anything more, but stands ready for when she can.

Gordon looks at Semaj, "I hate mud." Gordon says as the ground begins to heat up melting the snow and drys some of the mud giving the immediate area good footing. The Overseer now infuriated, charges Gordon and Semaj. It's arms all ready to strike. Gordon uses the now firm ground to his advantage and takes a running leap that sends him soaring. You can see Gordon's boots glow even as his sword rips effortlessly into the overseer shoulder. Gordon uses his free hand to grab the Overseer back, but the Overseer, now roaring in agony, uses it's lesser arms to lash out at Gordon as it continues to head towards Semaj.

Gordon sees the scythes lash out at him, and deflects them with ease, but Gordon can not do very much damage from his current angle and drops down. Though not before carving another gash in the Overseers back. Yelling Gordon says, "Aim for the upper body!"
------------------------

Petros is still surrounded by the five remaining dagger wraiths, The wraiths begin cleaving through the Slates of stone protecting Petros from attack. It would only be seconds before the Stones are broken down and leave Petros vulnerable.

The Wraith that Petros had first struck down had begun to fade away, but using the little life it had left Threw is dagger between a gap in Petros' defense.

The RANGER golem, continuing its scans of the area suddenly focuses on the movement of the airborne wraith to the party's rear.

Thumping it's fists together, a brief sound of thunder ensues and it readies the Spiked Chain it has been holding, shifting its focus onto the approaching threat, preparing to engage as soon as the wraith enters range.

(OOC: This is the other wraith.) The dagger in Precious' arm disappeared leaving a similar sized gash in it's wake before reappearing in the Assassins hand. Seeing that it had been spotted the wraith stopped, hanging midair. The wraith still out of range of the melee weapon cocked back it's arm in preparation to throw it's re-spawned dagger at the ranger golem, but just before it could send the deadly dagger flying a booming scream came from the direction of the rift it's self. The wraith paused paused only momentarily before re aiming, but that's all it took. a Bolt of lighting came flying down striking the wraith with a mighty blast of light and sending it crashing down to the ground.

There it lay motionless on the ground, but rather then fade away it begins to glow purple. (OOC: Uh-oh...)

"Bring it on big boy." Semaj said as he awaited the oncoming Overseer. Taking just a moment to gather the energy needed for his attack, then he too took advantage of the solid footing. Semaj jumped directly at the Overseers chest.

"Hyaku Ken Hae!" Semaj yelled as he unleashed a fury of blows faster than even his eyes could keep up with. The first several punches knocked away the scythes he knew he would have to deal with, then the Overseer's upper torso was pummeled with no less then 100 punches in less then 2 seconds. These punches would land about twice as hard as Semaj could throw a normal punch ((OOC: Imagine the biggest dude you know just decking you then multiply it by 2.)) but where still meant less to damage and more to probe. Semaj knows this monster can take a lot of punishment and is looking for a weak point and has something else planed when he finds one.

---------------------------------

Meanwhile Petros' face is hit with the flying dagger leaving a gash on the left side of his head and cutting off one of the iron studs placed there for protection. Petros' back is viewed by the other wraiths as they break though the stone walls.

A rather significant threat revealed, Alpha is already aiming for the Assassin-type wraith when it gets... altered... by the rift discharge. He hesitates for a split-second before unloading a full salvo at the prone monster.

"Laiden, if you can keep it engaged, I will provide support" he states calmly enough, already backing away from both the prone wraith and the still dangerous crowd of the same. Having had a few glimpses of the damage the stone golem Petros is taking, he wants no part of that, thank you.

He estimates it would likely take at best three solid hits to his chest to disable him, perhaps permanently. Well, technically, Kaelas and Yamiko had once manged to revive Viktor even after what should have been complete death but... the bronze had returned less than he had been in some ways and Alpha certainly wishes to avoid such a risk.

Laidan and Precious turn and move toward Alpha, Laidan giving a quick check on the damage to Precious's arm on the way over, wincing at the hole in the heavy plate. "Precious here can't reach the wraith, not yet anyway, but should be able to help us with cover at least, she's certainly far more resilient than I am."
Laidan flicks out with the Hellfire chain, but the prone wraith is just out of range. He looks at Alpha again, "Maybe it'll just stay down?" As if he would be so lucky.

As the slab of stone guarding Petros' rear failed, a wraith jumped forward. Mid Jump the wraith made a jarring stop, and there holding the wraith was Purge, the monster of a copper Gordon had brought along. Purge was already red hot and had placed it's leg between itself and the wraith. The wraith screaming Purge began to pulling the wraith backwards, straight through it's extended leg.Two of the remaining four wraiths turned there attention away from Petros to the Copper golem who had ripped there ally in half. (OOC: Feel free to comment on the ripping of the wraith in half it would be pretty horrific, even if it is a wraith.)

--------------------

The assassin, begun to get up and seemed only partially aware of the projectiles flying into it. Gordon's Clay golem who had been firing arrows into the other wraiths turned and fired it's freezing arrows into the wraith.

The Wraith finally aware as the arrows bit into it's form begun scuttling up the hill at alarming speeds, even for a wraith.

---------------------

The Overseer was clearly in pain from Semaj onslaught and was even forced backwards. Running in from the tress Frostfire rushed into Aid in the fight. Gordon quickly cast Elemental fury on his gem who then jumped on the overseers back and begun climbing up, even though the Gem had yet to attack the giant wraith it's arms lash back, but Frost fire just dodged away as her magically enhanced strength carried he up the Overseers back.

Seeing the Wraith get hit by the portal energies, and the sudden appearance of the assassin, Kyomi and Her Shadow share a look, then sigh as one.

"With your permission?" The homunculus asks, the dark murky shadows clinging to his body obscuring everything but his general shape, his eyes, and the sword he carries.

Kyomi looks at the spider, and with a fuzzy headed nod, the arachnid seeps back into the page it sprang from, and she flips the page.

"You have full sanction. Cast in the name of God." Kyomi replies, a second sword springing from the page she had just turned to.

"Ye not guilty." Her shadow replies, drawing the sword from the book, a long black bladed sword, with a runic inscription down the middle that glows with a blue so bright, that it is almost white. A sword in each hand, the Homunculus crouches down, seems to measure distance, and then leaps off the platform in the direction of the portal.

A stray wraith gets in his way, but with a double sweep of his swords, it is simply obliterated on the spot, half dissipating, half absorbing into the already thick shadowy aura.

A moment later, Kyomi turns to Masterslug, "You remember how I was the one who suggested the use of the Dark Shadow Gems? You ever wonder where I got the idea from?"

East Wind glances at the glowing assassin, then back at the swarming wraiths.
'The lightning didn't kill it. That's usually a bad sign,' Shan thinks.
Nonetheless, he aims East Wind's cannon down at the remaining swarm below.
'I'll face the inevitable doom later. I've got wraiths nipping at my ankles.'

A carefully aimed shot pierces the head of one of the half-dead wraiths, reducing its skull to a puff of smoke. The rest of the wraith follows after a moment.

Shan takes some comfort from it appearing that their slow descent would soon reach the ground. If they were lucky, the wraiths might even be pushed back far enough for a safe landing. Wishful thinking.

'I'll make my own luck.' East Wind continues firing, aiming for vital areas and picking off the weakest looking wraiths.

The wraith screams as its half corporal form is ripped and burned in two by Purge. The fibbers of its existence can be seen falling apart as its body is separated from itself. Gruesome to see even if is was just a wraith. The two wraiths still fixated on Petros coordinated there attack. One of them let daggers fly for the legs to immobilize and the other came in to melee range to deliver the killing blows.

Both hit, and now lay before them a pile of rock. But it was only rock. The wraith that came into melee soon observed the poorly sculpted face of Petros' decoy, which had its tongue sticking out at them in taunt. Then the wraith that stayed at range was suddenly encased in stone a pulled into the earth. A faint scream was heard from under the ground. Then Petros popped out of the ground behind the second wraith with a large rock above his head which was used to smash the wraith into the ground. As the badly injured wraith tried to squirm out from the rubble it lied under, Petros ripped its arms off with his Tiger Claws and then pulled its body in half lengthwise. The wraith screamed in horror.

"Nobody can stand against me when I am in MY element!" Petros declared.

Petros would then turn his attention to the last two wraiths if Purge had yet to dispatch them. Else he would head over to help Semaj.

----------------------------------------

Meanwhile Semaj had the Overseer in front of him faltering backwards and now with a Gem golem on his back.

"Gordon make sure you and your golem are clear in ten seconds!" Semaj yelled. "And make sure I have that long!"

Semaj jumped back to the end of the solid ground Gordon had made, closed his eyes and began to focus his mana. As he did the build up of energy could easily be felt at a distance and Semaj's body would begin to appear more blurred as the seconds passed.

(OOC: the power levels are starting to run rampant here, it's time to tone it done.
As for remaining wraiths, there is still 8 regular wraiths, 2 more are nearly dead, 3 Assassin "Yellow eyed" wraiths attaching Retros and purge, The overseer, and the Purple wraith who was empowered by the rift energies.)

Gordon was still standing behind the Overseer completely unaware of what Semaj had said. He had been using The Rift to 'safely' power his spells so that would burn him self out, but now Gordon could barely stand. Gordon fell to his knees as the world went black. Passed out, and drained Gordon was dead to the pandemonium all around.
---------------------------
Frost Fire was putting up a valiant struggle putting blow after blow into the neck/head area of the Overseer. Annoyed the overseer stopped it's charge towards Semaj, and reached for Frostfire. She dodged the first attempts, but the Overseer grasp tightly around the Gem golems waist before throwing her head long into a grove of trees, over fifty yards away.
----------------------------
Purge was in trouble, the Wraith where using the superior speed and agility to run circles around the mighty copper. Purge was managing several blows on the Wraiths, but for every blow Purge managed he paid in pounds of copper and armor.
----------------------------
The temporal wraiths still seemed oblivious too there losses even as 2 more of there number are brought low by the combined fire power of party. (Still leaves 8) The Empowered wraith (The purple one) had managed to reach the top of the embankment and turned back ready to attack, but something had changed. It looked out at the carnage and just stopped, as though it was looking at the world for the first time.

A new intelligence glimmered in the wraith eyes, the wraith turned around and fled, leaving it's allies to there certain doom. It now knew what to do...
-----------------------------

OOC: just another reminder, from now on tone it down. It's more interesting if where not all demi-gods ;).

Laidan watches the lightning-struck wraith proceed up the hill, unable to reach it, then moves to stand between his two golems, ready for a surprise attack or to move with the rest of the group when they touch down. From this vantage he sees Ironsmith fall, and tries to think of a quick plan for how to rescue him...and how to get away if need be.
