Chapter 2: The great jungle wurm
The screech draws our attention to the heart of the swamp. From the ground erupted a 300m tall wurm, a great wurm is worm-like creatures that bore through the ground with a Scale and hundreds or thousand of teeth on its mouth, the wurm screech once more, drawing more adventurer attention to the wurm. While we ran toward the heart of the swamp we saw plenty of adventurers came and ready to fight. Guardians, warriors, rangers, Elementalist, engineers. Many have come to aid us in this battle then Gamarien shouts “If I fall today, my last breath will carry Ventari’s teachings, This abomination holds no sway over me.”
In the frontline, the warriors and guardians ran to its body to attack the wurm while the backline are preparing, the engineer set their turret to attack and defend, the rangers and rogue starting to shoot from afar, Haize increase her focus she continuous shot from afar and the Elementalist starting to chant their spell, meteor shower, rock starting to fall down from the sky hitting the wurm`s body. Then the wurm quickly whips around with its body hitting the frontline and knocking them back, I chant my spell “I am rain and ice! Healing rain” by that instant, cloud started to gather and rain the battlefield, healing everyone but the enemy. Energized by the rain, they return to the frontline charging ahead. Wounded by our attack the wurm screech, with its high-pitch sound more enemy came out from the rear, Nightmare hounds came from all sides, Caim notice 2 hounds run towards me, he yelled “marigold, lookout!!” once I heard I turn my back only to notice the hound was already next to me, in that moment one of the hound pounce on me and I quickly activate my cantrip (magic spell) “mist form” the cantrip morph me into an invulnerable vaporous mist for a short time, the one hound that pounce through my body then hit the ground and recovers. Still targeting me, they both attack me simultaneously from front and the back, preparing my next cantrip, Caim summon his golem to block the hounds on my back while the one on my front pounce on my face, I thought I was a goner, then a shout from behind “judge’s intervention” someone teleported in front of me, and burn the hound.
I said “a guardian ?!” continued “who are you ?”
“are you alright ?” he said. “Name’s Tosi”
“I’m fine. Wait, just Tosi ?” I answered
“We’re in a battle here are you crazy? who cares !” he replied
“FINE !” I replied
Scaring him away, the hound falls back to his safe range. Head goes low, preparing to howls to call his pack, I followed, “oh no you don`t” I quickly change my attunement to air and chant “the storm shall bend to my will ! GUST !” a strong wind push the hound disturbing him and made him fell, thunder strike down from the sky attacking the hound rendered him unconscious or maybe died, Tosi continued to the other hound that was distracted by caim’s golem. Then Tosi said “hey, necromancer” the caim continue “golem! charge!” the golem shout and start charging at the hound and knocking him down, Tosi continued by swinging his sword slashing the hound body repeatedly until the hound died. After the hound death Caim relax for a moment but suddenly the wurm whipped its body again but now that thing spew poisonous projectile, and a few of them coming our way, I haven`t realized until it almost hit me, but Tosi already cast his spell for me, “wall of reflection !, necromancer, shroud up !” the he use his shield of absorption for himself while Caim activates his death shroud for him helping him survive from the projectile. Our little battle against some hounds then Aruvial called us to focus on the big one. We continue our war against the wurm and with a final attack from everyone the wurm let out a stronger screech than before, and retreat to the ground.
The battle has won. luckily Gamien reports that no one died during the fight. I say my thanks to Tosi. and he replied with "next time, be more careful mari" I was shocked how did he know my name, "how did you know my name ?" calmly I ask. "we haven`t properly introduced yet, my name is Tosi, I was with Barigold last weeks, He sends his regard and asks you to meet him at the heart of the magguma jungle. I want to join him but he said I wasn`t strong enough, so he instructed me to join you instead and catch up to him.
The heart of the magguma jungle, we'll catch up to you, brother.
