"Alright, gang. We all ready?" Daggat asked.

Ketil shot him a look. "We follow my lead. Remember that. Let's go. Quick and clean."

Daggat, Anath, Hunter, Klaw, and Ketil made up their murder party. Their goal: Hunt down and slay Mary the Crone with the hopes that that ends the blue eye moon thing, or Zuss and Elyndris take care of it.

"Yeah. Sure." Daggat said while rolling his eyes. They would see what happens out in the field. Daggat noticed Klaw leaning against Hunter and stepped next to him. "You doing alright?"

"Yeah. It will just take longer to heal than I thought." Klaw said.

"His heart is damaged, but there's nothing I can do. I need to learn more." Hunter said.

"Come on," Ketil grumbled, then walked outside. He called back, "I'll point out the traps."

While they avoided the traps, Daggat made sure his alchemical tools were easy to grab from the shared inventory. A Drakeheart potion, a Rejuvenation potion, a couple of gremlins, a Death Root, and a Fungal Drain. He was sure he couldn't use a Drakeheart and a Rejuvenation potion at the same time, so he would choose which potion to use. He gave Anath a Rejuvenation potion, though she seemed distrustful of it. Hunter had yet to try a Drakeheart potion, so naturally, Daggat gave him one. He was excited to see an Oni-Drake, or whatever happened. Klaw had a Drakeheart and a Rejuvenation potion as well.

Ketil didn't get one.

Of course, if all goes well, they would only need to fight one enemy. A mind-controlling enemy, but still, how much damage could she do? Daggat suspected the source of the magic wasn't the witch exactly. But, if it were, Zuss and Elyndris would wait for them. If it was the hag herself that had the power, then why didn't she activate it when she was outed as a monster?

The controlled humans had cleared from their posts, now moving lazily to the other side of the village. If Daggat's math was right, that would have been Willow. They would be attacked. But… it was fine. They were adventurers. They can handle themselves.

Daggat eyed the green fog of essence that had been culminating over the village. If he squinted, he could make out large, screaming faces in the misty mana.

Not all of the humans had turned away it seems. A group of three caught sight of the party and began to sprint towards them. Three men wielding farming implements. Their eyes were glowing, yet they seemed dead. Wide and empty. Tears stained their faces, washing away flecks of blood.

"Keep moving, don't hurt them too badly," Ketil ordered, then tossed something in the air. It became a large net and descended onto the humans. One of them managed to avoid it.

He came at Anath first, who was faster than Hunter and Klaw at the moment. Her broken spider leg was bound straight, but the other three were free. With one, she slapped aside the man's weapon, then stabbed him in the belly and chest. It was over quickly.

Daggat would have thought Hunter's peace aura would stop them. Turns out not. Perhaps their mind control worked around it? It was the same principle as shooting an arrow from a distance.

"Damnit! I said DON'T HURT THEM!" Ketil roared.

Anath looked embarrassed, "I didn't… I mean, I don't think I…" She looked at the deadly points of her spider legs, "Can…"

"More coming," Daggat said, "Let's move."

While jogging into town, Daggat sent Zuss a message.

Daggat: <Hey, where is the witch bitch?>

Zuss: <She has taken the throne. Where else?>

Exactly where he would have suspected.

"To the long house thingy with the throne."

"Are you sure?" Ketil asked.

"Yes, of course, I am sure."

They passed by another group of humans or two, each slowed by Ketil's traps. It wasn't enough, soon the group had a mob of controlled humans after them. It was still a small number of humans than if they would have simply made a run for it right away.

"I'm… slowing us down. I'll hold them off." Huffed Hunter.

"Alright, lad. Don't get yourself hurt." Ketil said.

Hunter skidded to a stop, turned, and lifted a metallic leg. He slammed it down onto the ground, unleashing a crack of thunder. It was much more powerful than before, and louder. Had his boots upgraded as well? They changed with him, but Daggat thought that was only cosmetic.

The mob of humans tumbled back, and their group was pushed forward as well. Klaw stumbled to the ground, and Anath helped pick him up. That blast immediately drew the attention of more humans.

Daggat looked over his shoulder to see Hunter swiping his torch back and forth, holding back humans. Then, he reached into a pocket, for the potion.

"Ooh, you think he's going to drink it? How exciting!" The Assistant was floating alongside Daggat, who had started to jog backward to watch.

Hunter drank the potion. His skin rippled and red scales covered his flesh. A thick, long tail grew from his lower back, curling around him on the ground. He seemed to thicken, growing in width and sturdiness. The horns on his head grew to match a drake-like snout that had formed.

A flash of rage washed over the oni-turned-drake-monster, and he roared. It was a deep, primal sound. One that carried with it the same fear the dread elk used.

Feeling fear from Hunter was an unnatural feeling, but he used it to sprint ahead.

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Ketil yelled.

"Alchemy. Keep up."

The group came to a stop in the village center. Guards were stationed outside the warming hut. These looked as though they could fight. They had spears brandished. Others were running towards them. Daggat spotted a few bows. They needed to hurry.

"MARY! Come out and face us, you coward!" Ketil roared.

From within the building came a muffled, "No."

"Are you sure we can't kill them? The oath says it is honorable."

"Klaw, we need them to fight the goblins!" Anath said. Klaw grumbled.

Ketil drew and flipped his ax to the blunt side. He yelled as he charged. Daggat chuckled in glee. At least the dwarf was fun.

Anath, Klaw, and Daggat joined the charge. Daggat fell back, giving him time to quickly step into the status void, grab a potion and tooth, and step out. He tossed the gremlin bomb at the furthest to the left.

At the same moment, Klaw dashed ahead. He allowed the spear to dig into his shoulder, piercing, but not wounding. Pushing against the point, the spear bent, then broke. Then Klaw punched the human in the jaw sending a spray of teeth. It dropped to the ground with a dislocated jaw.

"Ah… sorry," Klaw said. Daggat had read something about mass and strength combining into the power of a strike. Klaw had metal bones. Maybe he couldn't do non-lethal either.

Anath had somehow taken her enemy's spear and had hit him with the blunt side.

That was a fine idea, Daggat thought as he summoned his spear.

It's too bad he didn't listen to dwarves. His target was distracted by a gremlin trying to bite him. In a short time, the gremlin would have been killed by the human. Instead, Daggat thrust the spear through the human's chest. He sneered at the dying human. Too easy. He would think these humans would be a bit more competent. Too much time spent learning skills or building homes, perhaps. Soon, he would have to rely on these folk for defense.

Checking behind him, he noticed Hunter running towards him. The crowd of humans had become too much. He kicked aside the gremlin and ran into the building. Ketil had already entered. Daggat was a tad disappointed he wasn't first.

Mary in all her hagishness, paced back and forth in front of the throne. Bits of questionable, bloody meat were stacked on plates surrounding the now filthy throne.

One hand was gesturing towards Ketil. Her fingers swirled and green essence floated between her and the dwarf. He was on the ground, weeping.

"How… HOW? You… foolish boy…" he said. Daggat could make out a spectral Pote lying at his feet. It was fuzzy, made of magic. An illusion?

The crone's head snapped towards Daggat, "YOU!"

"Yeah. Me." Said Klaw, coming to Daggat's side. He kicked the dwarf, who ignored him. Daggat chuckled.

"No… the other… ugh, filthy goblins! You could have left me alone. Now you get to feed me."

Daggat sneered at her, "You could have left us alone. Hey, why didn't you do the eye thing right away?"

"Taking control cannot be undone. I was content. No one suspected a thing, not even with the missing children."

Anath screamed as she entered her rage. She charged forward with her sword in two hands, her others balled into fists.

The crone hissed and pointed her other hand at her. Spectral spiders swarmed over her. Anath screamed and slapped at herself. Frantically trying to rid herself of the illusory pests.

"They're illusions!" Daggat called, then rushed forward. She didn't seem to notice. Klaw fell into step with him.

"You foolish creatures. Cower before my power!" she lifted both hands into the air, flooding the room with more sickly green essence.

Something clasped around Daggat's ankles and he tripped and skidded along the floor. Looking down, he was shackled. Chains wrapped his arms and his legs.

"Get these… off!" He grunted. He felt the panic build The supernatural fear bolstered by the illusion.

They were illusions, yet felt real. They bound him. Imprisoned him. He was no longer free. Daggat's impulse was to slice off a leg. Chew through an arm. Anything but to be robbed of his freedom.

These were illusions, right? He pushed and pulled. He focused and then pitted his will against the cold, tightening metal. The chains began to loosen, only slightly. It wasn't enough. She was too powerful and his will too weak.

When he killed her and took the hag's experience, he knew exactly what ability he would focus on next.

Frantically, he looked around the room for an escape. For something or someone to help.

Klaw was closest. He was on his knees. Around him were strung illusory corpses. Of Dag, Zuss, and Glut. Faint suggestions of Anath, Hunter, and Elyndris hung behind them. Klaw looked utterly defeated.

"Klaw! KLAW!" Daggat hissed desperately. He didn't seem to hear him.

Mary cackled. "For far too long, I've bottled up my magic. My beautiful terror. These pitiful humans didn't know the beast that lived among them."

Almost casually, she walked towards the screaming Anath.

"Soon, the terror will infuse the very land. My territory would become mine completely, then."

Marry lifted a clawed hand that dripped with some sort of toxin, ready to tear out Anath's throat.

A bewildered Klaw appeared in front of Anath, then reflexively caught the slash before it could do any damage.

Klaw looked confused, and then his brow furrowed in rage. His free claws began to glow with golden light, and he slashed.

Marry screamed as the attack ripped three lines of flesh from her chest. She stumbled back, dripping blood.

"You fucking bitch. I am going to tear you limb from limb." Klaw walked towards her. His claws vibrated in fury. "Toe by toe, finger by finger. I will work slow."

Hunter pushed into the building.

"There's a lot of them out there." He said, then looked around. "Why are you on the floor?"

Klaw looked towards him a moment. The wounded crone hissed and flooded the room with her magic again. Daggat's chains tightened, shackling him further. He fought to stop from begging to be released.

A large, spectral figure appeared in front of Hunter. A huge, bulbous shape. He smiled at it fondly.

"Hunter! Whatever you are seeing, it's not real." Daggat choked out.

"Oh. I see." He looked at the witch, "Thank you, for showing me her. But, this isn't how I remember her."

Klaw was snarling, fighting an internal struggle. Mist floated around him in various shapes. Humans started moving into the building as well, closing in on the group.

Hunter chuckled, "You know, compared to real fear, this fake stuff is easy."

"Fake? FAKE! My fear is true. My terror is complete. Can you not feel it? The despair? The absolute horror that hangs in the air?" She laughed. "I made them kill their friends. Their family. There is no greater horror."

"Yeah," Hunter said sadly, "I know."

Then, Hunter roared. The hag gasped and staggered back. In that instant, Daggat's shackles vanished. He wasted no time grabbing his spear.

He simply was not as fast as the others. Klaw slashed with golden wind slashes. The witch jumped to the side, avoiding them. Anath's sword glowed as she rushed the crone.

Anath lept in the air and swung the blade with enough force to pull wind behind it. The momentum carried her into a spin, which she landed gracefully.

Marry's head flew in a clean arc. Daggat saw the chance and stabbed at it with his spear. He caught it through the neck, catching the hideous trophy.

"That was my kill," Klaw grumbled, then dropped into a chair. He looked tired.

"Oh… sorry."

"Gods be damned, it didn't work!" Ketil yelled. He was facing several humans, blocking attacks with a shield and ax.

So, the magic truly wasn't Mary's. That was interesting.

Daggat took a bite out of the hag's head.

[You have devoured - Crone Mystic, level 27. Experience Gained. You have gained one monster level.]

He sent Zuss another message.

Daggat: <Zuss, how's it going? We're in a bit of a pickle.>

There was no answer. He tried Elyndris.

Daggat: <Hey, you done yet?>

THE MIGHTIEST LARVA: <One moment.>

Daggat had a gut feeling. He turned towards Hunter, who looked as though he wasn't sure what to do.

"Hey, buddy. Once their eyes stop glowing, I need you to take me outside and lift me high. Okay?"

"Okay, Dag."

Daggat smiled at him, and then he drank a Drakeheart potion. The thrill of fire's fury washed over him. More importantly, his skin began to gleam golden and his charm went up by two points. Every bit will help.

"Do we get to kill them now?" Klaw asked.

"Hold, Brother."

The blue glow flickered in the human's eyes. Then, it vanished. As one, the humans stepped back and dropped their weapons. Their arms shook in disbelief and shame.

Hunter lifted Daggat and the two of them pushed their way outside. A crowd of almost fifty humans waited on the other side. The full force of the hags controlled who had come to stop them.

Instinctively, Hunter knew to lift Daggat onto his shoulder, acting as a stage. Daggat unleashed a breath of fire into the air, bringing everyone's attention towards him. He activated his hypnotic gaze.

"Do not fear, for it is I, Daggat. This is a dark time for Harrowpine, but today, we rejoice. For the witch is dead! Slain!" He hefted the spear into the air. Blood dribbled from the head. "The witch, Mary, has caused untold suffering. Today and through the years. I have seen this and declared NO MORE! I only regret that we were too slow to save your leaders.

Our hardships do not end, however. An army of goblins comes. But, together, we will defeat them! We slay them and come out STRONGER! We will rebuild! Look not to your dead, but to the future. To new prospects in lumber and home repair!"

The crowd's attention was locked to him. A golden goblin being held aloft by an oni would do that on its own, but his psionic abilities were working double time.

"So, go! Tend to the wounded. Meet with Ketil. Don't dwell, work. There is time to grieve when we are done." Daggat noticed a group skulking forward. Wolves accompanied by goblins. He smiled at them. "And lo, our allies have come! Willow, welcome to Harrowpine!"
