2890 Final Destination (Part 2)

'I'll set up a few arrays in case things go south.' Raagu said. 'My spells work best from a distance. Also, I'll make sure Inxialot moves his bony ass.'

'And I'll hit fast and hard wherever I can do the most damage.' Ilthin replied. 'The lost city is the major threat but if we let the Black Tide through, we'll have to split our focus into too many sides.'

The mind link was a quick way of communication so from the moment they crossed over Ilthin's Steps and when they assigned roles, only a couple of seconds had passed.

Solus too used a mind link to explain to the members of the camp what was happening and what they had to look out for.

Farg deployed the DoLorean fleet that she had kept at the ready while the elves of Setraliie started to imbue their equipment with tier five spells.

'Is there really nothing we could do?' Kelia stared at the Eternal Fortress in a mix of helplessness and fear. Even from such a distance, the lost city was a dreadful existence that made her feel small and insignificant.

'Sure, we can call upon Mother and run away.' Dusk replied with a sigh.

'Anything but that!'

'There is one thing.' The Red Sun replied.

Origin Flames would have been useless while Doom Tide would have made the fake mages useless. Life Maelstrom's effects, however, depended solely on the person they were bestowed upon.

"Here. This should help." Kelia pooled her mana with Dusk, allowing him to overcome Baba Yaga's seal.

The crack in the enchantment closed almost immediately, but lasted enough to infuse Orion with a single bolt of Life Maelstrom.

He was no Awakened, but his bright violet mana core was as strong as any other and his equipment was one of the best in the camp. More importantly, Orion had become famous for teaching the late god of healing Blade Tier spells, something that only Rulers of the Flames were supposed to be able to do.

Even ancient beings like Raagu, Inxialot, and Ilthin lacked such ability and their destructive power paled in comparison to a single Blade Spell.

Orion wasn't expecting anything like that and almost died for it.

The silver lightning empowered his body and mana core, making them both swell with power. He could feel his whole being burn as the impurities that kept his mana flow still were pulled with violence toward his core.

If not for Vastor taking care of fusing the impurities with his flesh and bones to make it impossible for Orion to Awaken by accident while practicing fusion magic, he would have died on the spot.

Luckily for him, the treatment resisted the effects of Life Maelstrom long enough for him to bridle its energy and suppress the mana flow it caused.

"Is everything alright?" Kelia wasn't aware of Orion's condition so him getting pale and showing shortness of breath instead of bursting with power was unexpected.

"Sure. I just need a second to catch my breath." He replied while using an irregular breathing rhythm that Vastor had taught him in case Orion ever needed to disrupt his own mana. "How long do I have before Life Maelstrom wears off?"
