Aww, but you sure know how to aim your blinding spells.
Scribbler raised her own bow and nocked one flaming arrow to it, letting it fly...but it hit the side of the frame.
It was a good thing that they were quite close. "Psst...Emma? Up here," Scribbler whispered.

Emma twitched slightly as arrows whizzed by her. She had a thing with that particular weapon...
She tried not to look as she lobbed a fireball with near-precise aim into the window of the watchtower.
It was only then that she heard Scribbler, and looked up. "Oh. Hello."

Awkward chuckle. Scribbler waved her bow. "Welcome back?"
Another attempt at skewering the tower finally met with success, flames scraping the frame again but entering the tower. It joined with the spelled flame of Emma's making...and the tower began to smoke.

The third watchtower burnt to a crisp, and the trio's position was given away. A voice erupted into each other their minds.
"You want to watch my towers burn?" Vaswede's voice asked."Then you shall"
A small formation of crystals opened up a vortex. Pulling in Paladin,Paene, and Enchantress. They were inside of the interior of the fourth Watchtower. It was empty of any guards, but there were many treasure's and weapons.
Then all of a sudden. Flames began to erupt from the tower. This time it began burning slowly.
"Not good," The Paladin muttered.

Emma rolled her eyes, folding her arms beneath her breasts. "Oh, for the love of-"
A ward sprang up around the three of them, keeping the flames out. The heat leaked through, but Emma remained unscathed.

"Now all we need is a window."
Scribbler was trying to stay optimistic...but what kind of villain puts his valuables inside a watchtower and sets it on fire?
Smoke rose from the tapestries that were slowly charring from the heat, and at its prompting the paene added her own layer of ink to Emma's wards.

"Hooray for wards!" Farskon cheered confidentially. The remaining window disappeared. His smile faded with it. The Paladin's face paled; as he saw the new figure standing in the room. It was a conjured warrior. But it was wearing certain clothes. It had hair. A lance, and flintlock.
It was a shadow conjuration of DreamChaser. He was altered slightly as his jacket tied into a cloak was glowing and magical.
[[Haha supplies not valuables ]]

((Editing.))
Emma started as the new conjuration appeared, the shock making her lose her concentration and the ward collapsed. Smoke filled Emma's lungs and she struggled to throw up another shield.

"...!" [editing. ...and you said treasures and weapons X3;]The ink flowed around the enchantress at the paene's will, surrounding her in a ward of a different sort. Scribbler hoped it could draw out the smoke already in Emma's lungs.
"It's not real! Don't falter!"
[...XD; does this mean we're doomed?] [/tempted to roll again and if it's higher she'll pull you guys outta there owo']

[Oh ya got me >.< ]
"Zack?!" Farskon asked horrified. Then snapped out of it. This wasn't him.
Farskon could no long raise arms against him. The longer he stared at him the more he looked like the real Zack. The paladin trembled worried. Then, knowing they might be doomed. Tackled the conjuration to the ground.
[[A teleportation rescue from Hrothbert would be good about now. two of 3 rolls were lost. We didn't win the challenge ;_; . Otherwise yeah we're doomed xd ]]

((I was thinking about it, but I wasn't sure you guys wanted me to intervene like that. But, now that I'm sure you're okay with it, I will.))
Emma sagged to the ground, a lack of oxygen finally getting to her. The heartbeat-echo in her head grew louder, faster, signaling the working of magic.
Paladin, Paene and enchantress vanished just as the flames caused the tower to collapse.
((It's up to you guys where we go.))

The Paladin pulled off the magical cloak from the Conjured Dreamchaser. And vanished along with Emma, and Scribbler.

Bonus: none ]]

Emma's head swam as she opened her eyes, staring up at curving branches. She was surprised to no longer be surrounded by flames, but instead by the edge of a small pond, in the depths of the forests surrounding the encampment.
She tried to move and was not surprised when she found herself unable. Her continued use of her newer magics coupled with smoke inhalation had left her weak as a newborn kitten.

"Wha--" The coughing paene fell with a thump close to where Emma was lying. All she remembered was silvery light dancing amidst the orange flames...then a bizarre yanking feeling. Then here...a pond, trees, and comparative peace. Emma's husband had impeccable timing.
A quick double-check spotted enchantress and Paladin.
"Where are we...?"
