BOSS FIGHT

[lazyvassals]

[So, how have the past few days treated you? Have you found a place to stay? Have you met some friends? Maybe rested enough to recover your wounds? Well, let’s hope so...

Near the beginning of the afternoon a giant shockwave will rumble through the walls and a large explosion will be heard all across the Castle, causing a huge hole to open up from the gardens. And apparently failing to notice the huge door right next to it.

A few moments later, a few dozen ghosts come pouring in, attacking anyone and everything in sight. And that’s only those who have managed to enter the Castle: the troops have the entire area surrounded.

Finally a few moments later a much bigger and larger ghost shows up, gratuitously posing for everyone to see.]

Alright boys, now that Prince Laharl is long gone, this place is ours. Drive out these old sympathisers, we don’t need a bunch of Krichevskoy losers hanging around. Things are gonna change around here.

[The army of ghosts all stop and salute]

All hail the Ghost Overlord!

[narsheprincess]

I'm fine! I still--

[That one ghost is getting too close for comfort, so she summons a large block of ice to send it flying back.]

[makainoou]

[When she doesn't complete her sentence, Laharl shifts his attention from the ghosts still pouring in to those who've gotten past him and are headed for Terra. With another blazing fist, he takes care of a cluster of minions, clearing out more of the space between them.]

[narsheprincess]

[Terra nods her thanks, taking the opportunity to leap up so she can get a better view.]

I think we might be finally thinning them out!

[Maybe. Hopefully.]

[makainoou]

[There do seem to be somewhat fewer coming this way. Laharl cuts down several more with his sword.]

Hmph! Can you believe he thought he could take the Overlord's Castle with this lot? What a joke!

[narsheprincess]

[Unleashing another carefully-aimed round of Holy missiles seems to help, as well.]

I hope everyone else is doing as well.

[She glances around, then to him.]

Where should we go next?

[makainoou]

None of my vassals are weak enough to be done in by such low-level enemies. Even that bug guy might be able to off one or two.

[He surveys their handywork, shouldering his sword.]

I'm gonna look for the leader. You can come or not, up to you.

[narsheprincess]

[Terra nods without hesitation. She wants an end to this battle, and if that means confronting the leader, so be it. This battle has been drawn out long enough.]

I'll go. The sooner he's stopped, the better.

[makainoou]

All right then, come on.

[Laharl doesn't waste any time but hops over the badly beaten ghosts on his way back through the courtyard and towards the throne room.]
