"In order to help in time, we need to have retrieved Dark Stalker within the week. I believe that is something we can do, however considering we've already spent a day and a half retrieving Anna, so we can't afford to waste too much time..." Maryvale pauses and surveys the group. "... However, we can't continue as we are. You all look like you've been pressed rather far in terms of your endurance. As such, for tonight, we'll make camp."

After hearing rest, the high elf collapsed on the ground. Creating so many shields for everyone drained him, even if he was a high elf, facing against a archangel's attacks is nothing if almost impossible to block against. "I'm sorry, milady, but I'm drained of energy, I can't even stand anymore..."

The high elf had fallen asleep minutes after he had spoken. Even if they were the best the Human Kingdom had to offer, it doesn't mean they weren't affected by exhaustion, hunger or anything like that.

"Desert gnolls are almost impossible to reason with, it will be a high chance that you won't be able to say three words before one of them will attempt to put a sword through your skull!" she says. "Then again... you DO have Earthrent. Fine then, go, we aren't invincible like you!

Connor and his posse run deeper into the temple (should there be any more rooms). If there weren't any more rooms, they would try to run out of the temple.

There plenty more rooms, all filled with all sorts of treasure and weapons. While none of the weapons he could see now were universal weapons, they were sure capable of killing small armies worth of people with a slash... and he was lucky he sat within the temple.

"Sir...?" the female elf said. "I think it's best we sit down here for a few minutes." she said. "Above us right now is a massive gnoll army, though I don't know what they want, they're sure as hell not friendly..."
