Your knowledge about Shasti's tactics allows you to evade the ambush. You are done with the chant. You roll your eyes wildly and exclaims 'gtzt mar nak grttzt' You pull out a copper rod which bursts into a zillion technicolour sparkles! You watch with selfpride as your golden arrow hits Shasti. Your fine choice of components lowers the effort of the spell. HP: 300/300 () SP: 687/1173 (-120) EP: 231/231 () EXP: 7003 () Shasti is near death. Zard reports: Hp: 1153 (1218) Sp: 31 (31) Ep: 368 (402). You start chanting. Zard starts concentrating on a new offensive skill. Dralith claps his hands and whispers 'judicandus pzarcumus' Dralith casts his spell at Malacoda. ***************************************************** A quick feint by Jeskko leaves Shasti off balance and and unaware as Jeskko reverses his stroke and thrusts! Shasti gets an acute case of iron-poisoning. Shasti is DEAD, R.I.P. Now I know to most people this probably isn't a big deal, but I had always thought that Shasti was badass (if not quite on the same level as Tenji, Akemi and Shelaste), turns out she's a flowerpuff.
