A Disconcerting "Weirdling" From the Mist / has taken 3 acid, 5 fire, and 5 physical damage

"A Weird Encounter" ROUND 4
On the Road: Bergmann to Aerugo - Grasslands
Day 4: Night

The creature screams in pain as the wizard's fire washes over it, then stumbles away from him, leaving only a brief swirl of mist in it's wake.

What would you like to do?

Day 4: Night

The weirdling lets out a whining howl of pain as Vernalis pushes his sword through some resistance and into it's torso. The creature suddenly locks gazes with him, it's eyes wide with fear and confusion, and works it's jaw soundlessly; it can now see again, but still seems unable to fully control of it's actions.

You're up.

Behind the Scene:

Will against Vernalis DC 15: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

"..."

The weirdling flinches as the acidic orb splatters across it with a hiss. The creature is managing to keep to it's feet, but is obviously blinded and too disoriented to take action, though for how long Vernalis cannot know for sure...

You're up. And obviously Vernalis is familiar with the duration ranges for his spell.

"Ah, but that is where you are wrong," Vernalis's double says with an evil grin.

"Who can say for sure? Certainly not this one. Perhaps extraordinary individuals are given a larger role to play in their service; if so, know that you, Vernalis of Bastion, are the most extraordinary individual this one has ever come across in the Emerald Province." The weirdling fixes Vernalis with it's gaze, and Vernalis can tell now that the creature, while not necessarily lying, is certainly being purposefully evasive. Faced with his own image, it also strike him how out of place he looks in the Bergmanns' clothes.

"What say you? Will you take me up on my offer?"

Weirdling / Bluff = 18

"What is this Sovereign City? What is this Sovereign City?" The weirdling seems seems truly surprised at Vernalis's question, then spreads it's arms wide in a welcoming gesture. "Why, it is Paradise! Those who wish to fulfill the greatest needs of others are taken on glorious wings, there to spend their days in dutiful service to the Lord Prismatic Himself! Nothing would make me happier than to give you this opportunity. This I can offer you, Vernalis of Bastion, if you but choose to accept." (V)

The 'weirdling' seems genuine, but definitely gives off an unsettling, creepy vibe.

"Is this so?" Vernalis's twin says with the weirdling's voice, it's grin widening. "I now know of you, Vernalis of Bastion, and this one is always in need of... assistance. Come with me, why don't you? I will take you from this foul province, to the Sovereign City itself!"

"This one's name is the whisper of the mist, it's home the light that shimmers on water." A vague, indistinct figure appears across the fire from Vernalis, obscured by the mist. "To be so forgotten sounds a mighty boon, Vernalis of Bastion. Perhaps it is this which I can take from you." The figure steps forward next to the campfire opposite him, and Vernalis is surprised to see himself smiling back at him.
