Aughra goes running by the white robed Druid as she flees toward the safety of the others...

A burst of bright white light illuminates the cave blinding everyone for a fleeting moment before Greko the White steps forth twinkling brightly. He ushers Aughra behind him as he brings his staff down and calmly speaks to everyone behind him "Hello there! You all need to retreat now. Delphinium grab the mirror and Triforce and go NOW.  One of you others bonk Bert on the head and drag him with you. Everyone else able to grab someone who is down and retreat through the mirror. Let Lelith and I provide you with cover. Do this now and do not hesitate or dawdle questions and answers later. Go now you fools!" Greko now turns his attention to Vader and Adam "Adam now is not the time... go help the others" and with that Greko slams his staff on the ground yanking Adam back safely to the others Telekinesis he then slams his staff down again replacing Adam with an Earth Elemental from the ground of the cave conjure elemental 

The earth elemental rises from the ground right in front of Vader towering over him. The earth elemental raises his arms to attack but does not strike down on Vader but instead attacks the ceiling of the cave above Vader. Damage to the ceiling doubled due to siege monster 35 . The earth elemental readies a second attack if Vader reappears from under the rubble. 

Greko readies 2 twinkle archer attacks on Vader if he reappears 

Vader's lightsaber slices through the air and cuts away the arrows as they fly, but one streaks past his defenses to stick in his shoulder.  He has just enough time to pull it free as Greko's Earth Elemental begins to dig into the ceiling above him.  

"No!"  He roars.  His lightsaber disappears as he jams it back into his belt and throws up both of his hands.  "No!  I am not done with you yet!"  

The collapsing ceiling stops...and the falling rocks begin to shake as Lord Vader uses the force to hold them in place.  They begin to configure in such a manner that he can throw all of them down the corridor at his foes...

The gurgling and broken mumblings go quiet from travin as his head lifts and he takes his surroundings into account, he's hurt, bleeding and has no recollection of why, he clutches at the sounds over his body and screams out, "WHAT IS HAPPENINGS? HMMM? VADER? DARTH VADER DIDS THIS? AGHH, Birt! Travin's friend, come help yeh yeh, Travin needses help hmm? What is wrongs Bort? Hmmm, Is birt hurt?"  He looks over to his monsterous friend, not noticing the malice in the giant Firey's eyes is directed toward him as Travin remains laid on the ground of the tunnel.

He has to pay. For what he's done. For what he will do! He needs to pay. 

Jek begins to raise his hand as a bright light flashes before his eyes. His eyes, now almost red, blink at the light. For a minute he sees a beautiful lady in a green dress. Then Greko and Lelith are in front of them. Wait... What. As Jek blinks, his eyes turn back to there normal yellow hue. 

Then he looks to see everyone. They are not doing well. Lelith is right, they can't stay. They need to leave. He can't just focus on revenge. That isn't the right path. This is not the end for them. 

As the earth elemental begins to attack, Jek pulls out a small black bead. He will look to the Willow that was once Slade and say "I'm sorry. I'll take care of her." 

Jek throws the bead at Vaders feat. It smashes and a blue force explodes out from it, engulfing the rocks and filling the width of the tunnel. 

"RUN. I doubt that will hold him for long!" He will move to the mirror on the ground. "How does this mirror thingy work!?"

Action: Throw Bead Of Force. 10ft sphere of forces explodes from the bead. DC15 Dex save, otherwise trapped in the force bubble and 18 Force Damage. If he passes, he is pushed backwards out of the bubble. 

Greko sees Vader struggling to catch all the rocks falling down upon him. He orders the Earth Elemental to attack (Misses) while shooting 2 twinkling arrows with one directly hitting Vader for  12 damage but more importantly the attacks coupled with Jek's bead do enough to distract Vader from the rocks falling from above. 

Greko again yells at the others "RUN YOU FOOLS! Through the mirror with the Triforce"

A couple of things happen at once.  

First, the rocks begin to fall as the Twinkling Arrows find their mark.  There's a moment where Vader's masked face is staring at them, at all of them.  He says something, his booming metallic voice reverberating against the maliciously crafted mask of his armor, and then he's crushed beneath the falling rocks.  

The tunnel begins to collapse as the Bead of Force explodes and throws the Earth Elemental backwards onto its ass, where it breaks into its constituent components, but the Bead saves the whole party from being crushed...for the moment.  The ground above their heads begins to groan and shift and a split opens above their heads.  Dirt, dust, and stone begins to fall through in places.  Darla honks and Birt get's driven to his knees by a falling boulder that knocks him out cold.  

A wave of dust blows as them from the initial collapse and the explosion of the Bead of Force...

Greko wipes himself off and turns to Lelith "That will not hold him for long we must get them through the mirror before he breaks out and the things from above descend upon us. I will grab the mirror you start throwing them through whether they want to or not" Greko turns to the rest of the group as he picks up the mirror "Delphinium into the mirror first now. The rest of you who are able help the others who are not able to get through. Aughra go through now too, your wisdom will be invaluable." Greko picks up the mirror talks into it and holds it up for the rest to walk through

Travin pulls himself to his feet, then pulls his firey friend over his shoulder, the giants feet dragging behind Travin as he makes his way to the mirror, ushering Jek and making sure Skot is ok as he walks, Travin turns to face the rubble where Vader stood, "Perhaps Vader does not knows yet, hm? Perhaps Vader thinks all is lost and that is why Vader musts do these things, yeh yeh, but Travin knows things... Travin remembers! VADER, ALL IS NOT LOST, A SON AND A DAUGHTER YOU HAVE HM! LUKE SKYWALKER AND LEIA ORGANA LIVE! Yeh yeh." With that yelled out toward the rubble confident that he was heard, travin lumbers as far as he can to the mirror and travels through if he can.

Jek watches as the bead explodes and the rocks fall. He sees him fall. It might be in his mind, but he hears a crunch. "Oh...Oh no." Jek quickly covers Darla as she gets close, protecting her from the flying dust and debris.

Oh no. YES! Was he the cause? He needed to die! Did he? Was he just misguided? All that death he caused, and he would have slaughtered more! He's never killed anyone before. There was no choice. It had to be done. It had to be done. 

Something breaks in Jek. He and Darla look over at the same time to the pile of rocks where Vader lies, and the Willow tree that is under there with him. "I'm sorry Darla, but he has been avenged. We need to go." Jek looks back to the others with his now orange eyes. "It will hold for a minute. We need to leave now. We can come back for the Shard later. With the tunnel collapsed, it should slow down the Arathim. "

Jek moves and helps Travin getting Birt to the mirror. "I don't think he can hear you anymore." He will send Darla through the mirror with them. "I'll be right behind you. I promise. But I need you safe." He will help get Ol'Ironsides through the mirror as well, if he's still having issues. He will see if anyone else needs help before going through himself. He doesn't want to leave anyone behind. He doesn't want anyone else to die. 

"You heard my good friend, Greko," Lelith's smile was sinister and foreboding. "Get in that mirror or I will force you in it myself."

Thea, rather shell shocked and confused with all that’s happened so suddenly checks to see that Malenia is ok and scrambles to find Adam. As she reaches for his hand, healing magic courses unexpectedly through her to him as her forehead shimmers (17hp back). “You fought admirably! Your mum and dad will be so proud but we’ve got to go!” Unless he resists she’d help him back toward the mirror and to safety. As they go, her eyes scan for Aughra to make sure she’s making it out ok too. 

Skot zips around the group, tiny now partly drawn and at the ready. Keeping an eye for any other enemies as the group prepares to evacuate. He pats Travin on the shoulder. “I’m glad you’re ok, brother!”

As Thea is helping Adam back toward the mirror, she finally sees Malenia. Her sigh of relief fades quickly as she sees her hero is on the ground, unmoving. “Malenia!” She looks to make sure Adam is sturdy on his feet before she runs over and kneels next to the brave warrior. Clutching her pearl, she says the command word in Celestial and feels magic course back into her again. She lays her hands gently on either side of the worst of Malenia’s wounds and casts Cure Wounds (19hp back). Stroking her hair, she sits and waits for her friend to regain consciousness. “Oh, Malenia! Please be ok- you just have to be!”

Her eye's flutter open after being lost in what she thought was a dream, Immediately recognizing the face staring down at her. Malenia greets her with a warm smile before the realization of what is happening hits her, Immediately springing to her feet. Her weapon hums to life and she looks in the direction of where the Sith had been. 

Active Perception: 11
Passive Perception: 22

Watching the rocks and boulders fall from the Ceiling and into the tunnel. "W-What happened?"

Greko looks at Malenia with a sense of urgency "No time for questions....up, up, come, come...get into the mirror now....Answers will be given when we get back to Skyloft. Now go"

Thea slips her hand in Malenia’s “The mirror is this way! Let’s go! I can’t believe you’re here but thank goodness you came!”

As Jek helps Travin and Birt through the mirror, Travin doesn't stop moving, he takes himself and Birt into a corner of the mirror room and Travin dives head first into his pile once more, it takes a moment but the junk creature re-orients his things and once everything is strapped up, he stands. Whole once more.

Lighting a torch Travin sets his friend's head ablaze, the warmth popping out the fresh indent in Birt's cranium "Travin is sorry Birt gots hurt, Vader is a strong foe hmmm? But Travin is here to helps Birt yeh yeh, always. Travin saved Birth from those nasty goblins hmm? Birt saved Travin from being lonely when Travin's friends said Travin is sick..." 

Travin will stay with his firey until Birt wakes, letting anyone from the group who wishes to approach and help, do so. 

The power of the tri-force was pulsing in delphinium's hand. They were ready to fight this guy Vader. They've never met them but watching them slash and whir with that red light Saber just made the fsiry more excited. However, they were worried about their friend more then wanting to fight. They were about to gather the power of the tri-force into their Astral form to punch Vader and send him bouncing down the corridor but instead two new allies show up to help.

This was a good thing though because Delph felt they were not going to be fast enough to help Kerwyn. One of the newcomers sent Kerwyn flying back and to safety. The other was Delphinium's friend Lilith. As the combination of falling rocks and allied help Vader was placed out of Delphinium's reach so instead they focused on helping folk. Any rocks that might fall on their friends they use their Astral arms to punch them out if the eay and protect. Travin yells at the Vader person and Delphinium says "Oh! Good luck Vader! Maybe we can fight later if you survive!"

The fairy then looks to Lilith and says "Hello Lilith. Ever so nice to see you. I'm glad you didn't get locked up forever! You own me one now!" The fairy smiles and then flies into the mirror with the rest of the people befofe she can reply. Delph, still holding two of the most powerful items in the world in their hands, is a little sad they didn't get to use the tri-force.

Once in the mirror they look around to see who else is near and waits for the others so he can chat with old, new and unknown friends.

Malenia's gaze lingers on where the sith was presumably buried, before she feels the hand of her smaller friend slip into her own. Breaking her from a trance of her own making, She nods and walks with Thea through the mirror. Immediately finding a spot to sit and ponder over everything that had happened in the last 10 minutes. From Slades betrayal, the ferocious bellow of a moving mountain, the fall of a crater and the death of the Sith. 

She holds her hand in front of her, looking at the veins. The dirt and the blood caked atop her skin, remembering the feeling of static arcing across her fingers. "What power....." Mumbling to her self. 

Adam is in shock, severely injured and one hand nearly cut off by Vader, he appears battered, bruised and scarred.  He starts taking deep breaths and getting a second wind (heals for 10 points), he is startled when he is suddenly pulled out of danger, he sees Vader recede in the distance and he has a crazy thought in his head “I could’ve taken him, I had him right where I wanted him!”, but really he knows better.  He activates his bound weapon effect and his lightsaber returns to his hand.  He hears Greko and Lelith’s voices, but they sound far off in the distance to him, fuzzy and faded.  He looks around for Ironsides and sees everyone leaving, fleeing the tunnel as rocks start to fall.  Thea’s face comes into view and she is consoling him, he starts to hear the words and the ringing in his ears gets a little softer.  “Got to go!  Skyloft… Run you fools…. Vader…” the words hum in and out of Adam’s awareness as he looks down at his nearly severed forearm.  He cradles it and runs for the mirror, enough awareness about him to avoid getting crushed in the collapsing tunnel.  He looks for Travin and Ironsides and jumps through the mirror.  “Gandalf, destroy the mirror after everyone is through…” he hears himself call out…. and he reappears in Skyloft.
