[PyrosNine]

Oh man, making the video of the Lighthouses's ascension has hit a few snags:
My laptop can't handle recording and playing (left my PC at Home home, not campus home) and most free campus computers befuddle my efforts. Will try again tomorrow, on lovely computers designed specifically for recording on a computer.

In the meantime:

Episode 6 part 3,sub- part 1/2


We finally set off for the Lighthouse of Imil, which had begun to set off intermittent flashes. They didn't come from the top of tower however, and seemed to pop up on various levels of it's midsection- and even though we were still a great distance away...I could almost smell the Psynergy.

We never got as much medical care as we all would have liked during our stay, but with our prey so close within our grasp, and so close to fulfilling their dreaded purpose, we could only make due with Pyros's self-proclaimed surgerydwarf skills. We're still not sure he's a dwarf, and or even a surgerydwarf, but he was certainly a guy who can sew, and aside from a few errant stitches, we're all good as new!

...At least that's what I keep telling myself as I cast Cure on them and pray fervently.




At the foot of the great tower, we were in awe at it's majestic size, (picture not up to scale) located here on almost an island, at the very edge of the world.


In all honesty, we couldn't go anywhere further north if we TRIED. I'd lay stakes down or a flag to show our accomplishment, but having a town three miles off makes it seem less cool.



: You don't have to say the name of the place everytime we go somewhere new Fred, we know where we are.

: The townspeople wouldn't shut up about it. With their brains.

: Well...well, I was just saying it for Mr. Pyros's sake.

☺: Lad, thank ye, but I'm not that frostbitten in the ear.

: Oh...just checking.


: Fred, we just talked about this!
: I'm reading the damn sign!



We certainly could use some rejuvenation but--


Just not our day. In the meantime, I will just take this as yet another evil work of WHY? to put us down.


That mysterious blue haired chick was here.


Well, there's you, and then there's us...


Somebody, or Someone? Make up your mind!


Yes creepy girl, I do hear the Sonic X themesong. I thought I was the only one!



Huh...this Alex...he sounds familiar...and these statues look also familiar...


And me pushing them away with the power of my MIND is even MORE familiar...


NO! I did nothing and you can't prove anything!

: He totally did it.
☺: I didn't see it but I know he did it. Creepy stuff this. Almost as bad as meowing books of economics -almost.



Some of us call it Roy coming out of Grant's Ear, but yeah. That is what we calll our power. What do you call yours?



: WE were?

: Everything only goes purple and green when one of us uses Psynergy!



Your ancestors probably forgot to excersise it on beating the crap out of local wildlife, because my Cure's still alive and kicking right now.



: I guess...



Man those angels...dance on the head of a pin, cure a man from death, and open mystical doors.... Then she ran inside. I knew I had to follow her, because I was beginning to put the pieces together.



She didn't get far though, as some ugly brute was playing the Mirror game and not letting her through.



This smells even stronger of the Jerks....but an easy obstacle. I show now awe her with my ability to get past this oaf!


To the left!


To the right!


KICK HIS ASS.



Yeah...two hits. That's all it took. I didn't even need to get Vorpal on their asses.

: Yeah, but TITS! ran ahead while we were fighting.

: Crap! After her men, because with my brilliant deductions I have found out that-

: Alex, a member of the other party, is her fellow member of the Mercury tribe and likely has let the other party into this tower.

....You....how...why would you ruin my moment like that.

: Elementary my dear Fred. I knew it since we were in town. I'm surprised it took you this long to-

: Alright, but next time your arms fall off, I'm not Cure Well'n your little ass!

: That's mean! Just because you're dense doesn't mean you can't heal men!

☺: Don't worry little man, I'll sew you up right! Just after I get me some more rum. I do my best taxidermy when I'm in my cups.

....*gonk*



What the crap does that mean?

On another note, the boss of this particular dungeon CURBSTOMPED ME. I defeated the lizard easily as you saw, but most every other creature was ludicrously strong and there are two "special encounters" on this tower, both of which would probably be an appropriate full-boss at my level, and the boss here is three times as strong as they are, even if I have a full party.

So the viewer participation question:
Should I do some off camera grinding, then record the video, or should I record my trip up the tower, and record a separate vid for the boss with a few levels under my character's respective belts?
