Randall:

”Agreed,” says Randall, directing the flying carpet to get them there but staying clear of the energy field.

While staying with Randall and the group, Zenodor tries to have a look at the energy field and its structure to attempt to work our what purpose it might serve. (Arcana 10 )

@Zenodor

All you know is that due to the size of it the result will be something... Momentous!

@All

You circle wide of the energy and as you approach you can see in the distance that the tower occupies the first gap in the corona. There are flashes of light coming from the top of the tower, some the same color as the corona, some not.

Zenodor says: "Whatever this is, I think we should try to disrupt the creation of the field before it is complete. If this is magic to summon some creatures, we could be looking at an invasion! Let us hurry!"

Randall:

“Enough said!  Let’s hope our mages are still alive and resisting the massive spell,” responds Randall, piloting the carpet to the tower, engaging his armor’s Beacon of Hope ability as they near the destination.

Arcana to understand this spell:  19

@Randall

You can determine that it is Conjuration magic and that means either summoning a creature as large as the city, or teleporting something.

Randall:

”The massive spell is made of conjuration energy—it will either summon a creature of unimaginable size, teleport/plane shift it, or both.  I fear the destination may be our material plane version of Laurentis—the city could not withstand such an assault,” says Randall, continuing his flying approach at maximum speed.

”Prepare—we must dismantle this magic before it dooms our home,” he adds.

Pepin is ready to take on whatever they are gonna face. They have protected the city well enough, but now he has made the city its home its all the more important to protect it from whatever comes.

Quote from Brian_Avery >>

The walls and most of the buildings are intact and although there are no people to be seen you do occasionally witness the odd dark denizen wandering around.

They sometimes cross paths and after a brief clash move on but just as often only one moves on as the other has met a fatal end.

The towers here are as dark as the shadows themselves. Near the top can be seen a purple miasma of energy linking all the towers, as if a giant halo or laurel rested atop the city... except it's broken and incomplete in several places.

 Z: "I suggest that we head to one of the places where the pattern is as-yet incomplete. We need to stop the ritual form being completed!"
