[I kind of feel bad for Edwell]
[Don't, that guy's a dick ovo. This is pretty much what Caster wanted though.]
[@Blah nothing about how he took the hit for you? That's cold.]
I receive a message declaring a bounty on "me."
"Well that was fast."
The territory I've been making around the surrounding area is just about finished. Using Prelati's Spellbook as a base, it buffs the stats of any Horrors (cthuloids) fighting inside it and automatically forms new ones using any blood or corpses available, while also decreasing enemy stats.
I begin calling my army from all over the city to fall in closer to the area.
"Well Almo, this might be the last time we can freely speak to each other."
Panicked squeaks
"What's that? You want to join the battle too?"
Angry squeaking
I reach into Almo's cage and start petting him. Funny how he scampers about when I reach for him, it's almost as if he's afraid of me. I grab hold of him and bring him closer.
"It'll be really dangerous you know. There's a chance we won't both make it out. I mean I'll be fine if course but-"
Bites off finger
"Such enthusiasm! I knew I trained you well. Alright, I'll let you come with me, but you're gonna need some major upgrades."
I call in one of the cthuloids that's been patrolling my hideout. It slithers in making gross squelching noises as it hovers by me.
"Now, I know this guy tried to eat you once, but he's not bad once you get to know him. In fact, he's so sorry about it that he's willing to let you use his body."
Horrified squeaks
"No, not that way! Get your mind out of the gutter! Here, I'm just going to do this, and-"
Pained squeaking
"Almost done."
Squelchy noises mixed with squeaking, then a popping sound.
"There, that should do it."
The horrific combined form of rat and cthuloid hovers in front of me, swaying slightly for a few seconds and then, shaking, it explodes, lining the walls and floors with guts. The mess pools as it returns to the center, forming a giant floating ball of blood in front of me. Placing my hand in front of it, I form it, returning its unnatural body. A half rat, half cthuloid monstrosity stands before me. It's just as beautiful as I imagined.
"Perfect, Almo! I'm so proud of you! With you by my side, I can't imagine losing!"
Unintelligible moans
"Right??"
Now just to wait.
