Godsgrave Session 7 Part 2

Returning from their fishing trip, The New Gods were greeted by Leorah and Amun Khun, who had discovered that the prayers were coming from the city of Ochyro, which lay directly in the path of a creature known as The Apocalypes Beast, The Primal Earth Elemental, The Tarrasque.

Leorah's research showed that they could not kill the beast outright, even if they defeated it in battle, it would regenerate within a day. She went on to add that they would probably not gain any power from this conflict, and the most they could hope for would be some epic spell components for Esmerelda to use in crafting her 13th level spell.

The goal then, is to delay the beast until the city can evacuate.

The new gods lept into action, organising supplies to be teleported through Sol's faerie rings. Elda Gem set her dwarves to work building siege engines, and the rest were set to lure The Apocalypse Beast to a ravine and trap it via mountain-summoning ( high level D&D really does give you the demigod feel).

Meena and Elda Gem took horses to the crucible of the beast to lure it towards their ravine ambush. They set up camp three miles away and waited. The Tarrasque burst out and began charging towards them, with roughly twenty minutes before it caught up with them. Some quick thinking from Elda Gem saved them as she summoned a celestial flying horse to carry them into the sky and safety.

The fight in the ravine was long and brutal, and extremely close, but everyone fought cleverly and wisely, and the beast was defeated.
