And raises his shield

The terracotta warrior continues its assault upon Kyrie. It manages a lucky swing that nearly breaks the knight's shield. However, she is able to rebuff the remainder of its feeble attacks.

2-Action Kalistocrat Lay on Hands (Reach): 42 = 42

Humble uses his last lay on hands on Kyrie and Vital beacons himself. The Life connect ticks once more. Kioko back to full after a round, then it doesn't tick, then it falls off

111/138 HP, 2 focus points after refocusing. Kyrie 186/203 HP

Rakka's storm of stones and clay shards rips the last of the terracotta warriors to pieces. Golden energy flickers and fades from the inner face of the shards. Now all that is left of your attackers are piles of decorative clay and antique swords and ruined shields.

Ingdani has her finger to her earring and is talking under her breath. As you begin to regroup, she says, "Reports are coming from all over that clay warriors are attacking teams in their headquarters. It's not just us."

What do you want to do for the next 30 minutes?

Rakka: Refocus, 20 min, 30 min
Humble: Refocus, 20 min, 30 min
Kyrie: 10 min, 20 min, 30 min
Kioko: 10 min, 20 min, 30 min

Investigate Remains (10 minutes): Crafting or Society

Investigate Residual Energy (10 minutes): Arcana or Religion

We must protect our feathers. Humble checks to make sure all the feathers are in his booby-trapped sleeves.

The Magical hands of Abadar treat your wounds as HUmble's white-gloved hands hover inches away.

He keeps an eye out, standing next to Kyrie and looking around for any sign of trouble. He clutches the Bonmu swapping stone in his hand.

Once he has recovered a little bit of his magical focus, Rakka spends some time examining what remains of the statues.

20min: Crafting: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21
30min: Arcana: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (8) + 19 = 27

Kioko spends a few moments cleaning her blades and practicing with them. Refocusing

She then examines the residual energy, when she is not getting healed by Humble.

Religion: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (19) + 19 = 38

Rakka examines the remains and determines they bear Taumatan markings and artistic style. Something--perhaps a grand melee among powerful forces--must have disturbed the ancient Taumatan defenses on the island. He also determines that the residual essence is extraplanar and familair, but he cannot place it.

Humble tends to everyone's wounds. Kyrie repairs her badly battered shield.

Once Kioko finishes cleaning her blades and centering herself, she examines the essence in the clay shards. Like Rakka, she recognizes that it is extraplanar. She recognizes its origin more specifically: it comes from an outer plane of pure law.

While you consider your findings the middle of the sparring ground flashes with dozens of golden lights as terracotta soldier after terracotta soldier teleports into the temple.

Rakka reacts before the golem army can get its bearings.

Rakka sighs, wearily. Drained as both he and his staff are after a day full of combat after combat, he can only dream of the large area attack he'd like to summon to decimate this army. Instead, he shouts to his companions "Hit them now, before they can form up!" His words seem to ring throughout the arena as he fires another terra cotta comet at the forming army, hoping they share the same weakness that the other ones had.

◆Cast true target. Everyone can roll twice and take the better on your first attack this round.

Spellstrike: uncharged.

Rakka's arrow and trailing debris tears through the middle of the terracotta army with the force of a dragon. The sound of shattering clay echoes around the sparring grounds. Statues shatter and fall in a row down the middle, a third of the army eliminated by a single strike.

The scattered soldiers form up and then archers take aim and fire a storm of arrows toward you.

Across the arena, the old man statue suddenly stands and walks toward the invading army.

Rakka admires his handiwork for a beat too long and is unable to avoid the hail or return fire. Pierced and bleeding, he grits his beak and gathers more energy from the detritus around him, firing off another cloud of rubble at the earthenware army.

Rakka shows off by firing another enchanted arrow that wipes out half of the remaining statues.

The decimated army forms up and marches away from danger. They fire a wave of arrows at Rakka.

This time, either Rakka is more prepared or the reduced army is less dangerous as he manages to dodge most of the arrows.

The remaining soldiers retaliate with gusto, striking Kioko and Kyrie with swords and spears.

Kioko bows to the statue as well. "Are you a spirit?"

Rakka hangs back while his more eloquent allies greet the statue, both weary and a little wary of the statue despite its aid.

Humble looks closely at the Old Man.

He tries to understand what's going on here — is there a spirit in the statue? Is it the herald of a herald of Iro-Shu himself?

Humble's Religion (E): 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (15) + 26 = 41

Humble's magical hands move over the wounded and heal each wound until the skin is pristine.

The Old Man statue continues to patrol the sparring grounds and pays you no mind. The only interaction it gives you is to move around you if you stand in front of it. Humble recognizes that it is a divine warden and must have been constructed during the Tian Sing occupation.

The warden begins to chant in Tian Sing a moment before four more soldiers teleport into the arena. These soldiers are more elaborately marked and have their sword and shields at the ready as the appear in sparkling flashes of golden light.

An invisible wave of uplifting and hopeful energy bursts out from the warden.

Two of the elite soldiers raise their shields and advance upon Humble, flanking him. By some miracle of divine grace, he avoids the first soldier's sword. The second takes him unawares, but Iomedae through Kyrie is able to weaken the strike slightly (retributive strike used).

The Old Man moves to assist Humble and swings its stone staff at the back of the terracotta warrior's head, shattering the back half of the statue to reveal flickering golden light inside.

Humble's vital beacon flickers out as he moves away and raises his guard.

The other two statues move in to battle the Old Man statue, who has proved to be rather devastating to the invading forces. Despite its stone construction, which resists the blades, the power behind the swings cracks and chips the statue.

Kyrie catches the terracotta golem with a glancing blow, but it still cracks the surface deeply (due to GM documentation errors). It turns and parries her follow-up swing.

The clay warrior near Rakka keeps its shield raised and follows him. The elaborate statue cuts the magus with its blade, though it is more through sheer strength than accuracy that the blade wounds him.

The old man statue moves in such a way to leave the two statues but still keeping Kioko and Kyrie in its golden aura. By some twist of fate, the Old Man fails to connect as he thrusts the end of his staff at the terracotta warrior. However, it spins the staff and cracks the statue hard in the thigh.
