The Autumn Country (Hunt for the Barley King)

Quote from Baalzeboop >>

 Typhon looks out the window. "Oh, good! I was... worried there..."

The burnt man bows. "Gardziel, at your service, but feel free to call me Salt if you forget. I apologize for my unorthodox appearance... actually, I don't. I apologize if it offends you, but I regret pretty much nothing. My diet and fighting style result in some severe mangling. I've been described as a 'wonder' by many clerics and healers who have examined me. I've also been described as a 'horror beyond science and conventional magic' in almost the same breath, but I take equal pride in that." He chuckles, and Typhon stifles a giggle.

The god eater bows slightly as well. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Gardziel. I am Helianth. You've already met the Ravenous Flame, though it may find a name for itself too." It responds, seeming satisfied with his answer. "It would seem we are of a similar appetite- and a similar reputation. I've had my fair share of being called a marvel and a monster in the same breath as well. I've been working with my new friend here on something big. Would you like to see our work so far?"

 His facial muscles twitch upward, as he lacks eyelids and lips. It seems to be a sort of smile. "Oh, of course! It must be a marvel if the two of you are working on it!"

He almost skips into the spelljammer, as Typhon seems slightly perturbed once more. He removes something from Gardziel's back as he passes. A ritual dagger. It looks as if it would have pierced the paladin's heart and one lung by the angle, but the burnt one doesn't even notice its removal, let alone die. Blood pours to the floor behind him, causing Typhon to jump back in mild disgust and Salt to turn around. "Oh, apologies! I didn't mean to take your knife! It's a fine one, but I don't need it."

 It clearly damages him, but he isn't phased. "Please. Don't do this to yourself."

 the cultist speaks. "this is His place. you have no right to trespass here"

make another con save

 CON: 31

"I'm not interested in anything He has to say. He is causing pain and destruction without any reason. We get enough of that already."

 CON: 31

"I'm not interested in anything He has to say. He is causing pain and destruction without any reason. We get enough of that already."

 44 more damage.

"of course there is a reason. the world is dying, and He will decompose it, return it to the universe!"

 He barely seems scratched. "He should stick to the dying." His voice is filled with disdain.

He walks directly into the center and stomps once, a scream echoing out from him as energy detonates from within him.

Everything in the circle must make a DC 25 CON save or take 25 fire damage and 32 force damage and be pushed away 10ft. This includes objects and terrain.

 the emissary disintegrates instantly, leaving behind lichen and bones in clumps of varying sizes. the cultist screams as the flesh is ripped from their bones. the circle is unaffected. a cold wind blows through, sounding a lot like laughter.

a few clumps of lichen roll away. the skeleton of the cultist twitches, and gets up. "did you think that would do anything? He always was, and always shall be. this is His place of rest. His place of power.

con save please!

 CON: 25

He shakes his head. "I don't care. He is an idiot not worthy of being called a monster." He walks over to the clumps of lichen and bones and begins to eat them.

*Thank you for your patience!*

Helianth looks quizically at the dagger for a moment- beyond any and all doubts, he must be incredibly resilient- it's good to know that its ally is certainly strong. "Here is the Starshredder, our primary residence and base of operations. It's here that I- and as of recently, Typhon- made incredible tools and weapons to aid in our mission." It gives Salt a similar rundown of the layout of the ship that it told Typhon before, making sure he knows his way around the vessel.

 *It's all good! I've been coming up with an idea!*

He calmly observes, occasionally picking something up, realizing that he has no idea whether that's safe or not, then putting the object back down. "Quite the ship. I think. I've got nothing to compare it to, other than a kayak my father rented for a day when I was twelve."

he sits down, and Typhon sits down on his lap. Gardziel treats this as if it were a regular occurrence, petting Typhons head casually.

 you hear some whispering. you cant make anything out.

*it turns out eating a construct of a god of death and decay was a bad idea*

 *Trust me, this will not be the worst thing he does to himself over the course of his life.*

The ever starving wretch watches to make sure he doesn't pick up something explosive. "It was quite the project, fixing it up to this state- you should've seen the mess it was in when I first found it. It's my pride and joy- well, one of them, at least." It opens a storage crate and retrieves a bottle of collected starlight from the expansive reserves that the ship has gathered. It sits down near Salt and Typhon- now that the Ravenous Flame has been pacified to an extent, it can finally relax for a brief moment.

*I have to go for about two hours, but I love the idea of Helianth basically sitting down with a beer and watching the kids.*
