Damn this horde, damn it to its monstrous, scaly core. I've been at this for hours now, engaged in an endless tug of war with Setsulah mage servants, and to a lesser extent, their hidden master who remains tucked sowhere in the centre of the slowly moving monster mass.
Thankfully Garralosh hasn't reared her ugly head again. When I felt that aura pressure mounting on my heart nearly leapt out of my mouth and into my loving face hands. I am not ready nor willing to go face to face with that giant ga-monster yet. Hopefully after I've evolved I'll have so chance of dealing with it, though I've no idea how. I'll be evolving into a tier four creature and although I've been told that Garralosh may not be as highly evolved as I think, she must be tier six or seven. I refuse to believe she's tier five, refuse!
Given that's the case, however, I do have hope. I think the Queen was tier five, which ans that she'll have advanced to tier six, with the aid of the rare core no less. Although a lot of her evolutionary energy has been spend on her reproductive capacity, I'm hopefully that between the two of us we'll be able to hold off the big Croc and the Kaarmodo from devastating our family mbers.
Claws crossed.
But to get to that point I need to defeat so monsters and that is proving difficult!
Oh snap! Lighting!
BOOM!
I threw myself to the side at the last mont as a jagged lance of light stabbed down from above, sending a burst of soil into the air in the place I had been standing. Stupid Kaarmodo! Annoyed, I pick myself up and wave one claw at the sky.
I know you're watching you stupid Wizard Lizard! Too bad I don't have any fingers, otherwise I'd give you sothing to look at!
I generally don't like to be rude, but this Lizard is really getting on my nerves. Every ti I take a rest anywhere close to the horde, the pot shots co out. To say that it's getting irritating would be an understatent. Without my future sense antennae, I'd have been thoroughly cooked by now.
At least I've managed to gain a few skill levels, but getting raw XP is getting harder and harder the closer the horde gets to the nest. I can't afford to wait much longer!

All of my goals are currently within reach! Just two more levels in severing bite and I'll be able to prompt the System for the skill fusion. And ONE. MORE. LEVEL.
Just one!
I'm so damn stressed! Just let fight so stupid monsters already! I need to evolve!
Wait…
HAP!
BOOM!
Missed again you stupid Lizard! Shove off already! I threw myself onto my back and wiggled aggressively at the sky. Scry THAT you reptile!
Whoops!
BOOM!
Haha! Getting mad are you?! Not liking my dominance display? I've got plenty more where that ca from!
Oh boy, the clouds are starting to gather, think it's ti to move on. I gathered myself and moved around the horde toward the location I sensed Tiny and Crinis where operating. I'd asked them to fight away from in the hopes that we could split up the Mage Servants but it hadn't worked. The horde was seemingly happy to absorb the massive losses that my two pets were able to inflict, so long as I was kept at arm's length.
Which ant that the two of them were getting so great experience and raising their skill levels, which was great, just a sha it didn't help to do the sa. Gah! I'm tired of trying to go around these stupid mages to get at the horde. With their very own eye in the sky, I just haven't been able to get a hold of them. It's starting to fall to night ti now, and the horde is expected to reach the colony soti tomorrow. I'm running out of ti!
Wait a second. Maybe I'm thinking about this situation all wrong. What if I didn't try and avoid the servants to get to the horde, but avoided the horde and tried to get at the servants? After all, the servants are perfectly prepared to step forward and fight , I don't have any trouble at all getting into a scrap with them. It's not an easy fight by any ans, but with the exception of that one ti, I haven't actually been trying to fight them, just keep away from them.
If you won't let get experience from the horde, then I'll just have to take it from your servants, Mr Kaarmodo. I can hardly be blad that's it co to this.
Gweheheheheh.
But how am I going to do it? I'll need help, that's for sure. Tiny and Crinis will have to group up with , maybe even Isaac and his group as well. They might be able to provide so ranged fire support. It's risky though. The second the Lizard Wizard realises what I'm doing, they are going to co down on hard. Even harder than they have before.
And I'll need to be quick. If the fight drags on, there is a good chance Garralosh will wander over and that's not sothing I'm prepared to deal with right now.
One last roll of the dice to level up. Let's see how this goes.
