Who: Canis
Where: Canis, the great desert Arakis
When: King's Year 199, midsummer
What: nananana BOSS FIGHT

[Great plumes of sand have been seen rolling through the country all summer. Storms too, such that Canis has never seen. But the desert is not built to hold water for very long; instead, the waters have uncovered an enormous sinkhole in the great desert of Arakis, within which rests something very deep and dark and ancient ...

In the weeks leading up to this encounter, this enormous hole has been the epicenter of the numerous dust storms and other disturbances that have rocked the country. Even the minorly talented shamans have sensed this disturbance in the earth. However, getting to this place has been more than a little difficult. The winds buffeted anyone who came too close. Only now, as the summer approaches its apex, do the winds die down enough for shamans (and other talented folks) to approach. Lazy clouds of sand and grit obscure the mammoth shape ahead of you. And high above your heads fly a number of desert birds, their shadows making lazy circles in the sand far below.]

	It seems we've awakened something. Altjira, we'll need to clear a path. a corona of blue fire begins to burn around Jace's hands, resolving into crawling tendrils of lightning that writhe up his arms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[these bugs are not tasty. and their claws, when they reach the group, are not pleasant. but they are fragile and filled with goop that tends to pop out of their soft skins when cut or bit or exploded. also, flammable.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hissing arcs of lightning lash out from Jace's fingertips, striking home among the bugs, but... Place it among the mass of them, and hold it. I have an idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

*as bugs explode or burst into flame, Jace concentrates, reaching out to the air nearby, already agitated from the heat of Altjira's power. A localized wind stirs the dust and ash on the ground, slowly at first, but rising into a vortex twice the height of a man. The column of air touches the flame, merges with it...

...and then the flame roars as it, too begins to spin, a tornado of brilliant fire leaping up to half again its original height, lighting the walls with a hellish crimson glare as it moves forward down the path.*

	[there are SO MANY exploding bugs. the fire tears through them just as well as swords and teeth. bug bodies litter the path in front of you. after enough of them are dead, their compatriots take the hint and pull the hell back into their hidey-holes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
