Deadly place for the unprepared is what Wellwatch is
Off to the East is a place called Wellwatch in which a quest to find someone resides. Upon getting there, it was a beautiful place to see and Octharg was happy to be visiting it for his quest. But shortly after heading in a bit, some inhabitants weren't so welcoming. Some Vatyrs and a Vatyr leader were not impressed to see him walk into the area and began to run toward our mighty villain.
"Is this how you want to play is it, numerous of you against me? Well time to make it more of an even fight" said Octharg before summoning his Mud Elemental to absorb a lot of the damage and allow him free shots at damaging the Vatyr.
When all those Vatyr had been killed off it was back on toward the camp to find the contact. Little did Octharg know was the stalker, a Goldenfrost Matriarch that could have been deadly with some nice hits on him, but the fire and ice elemental were great at doing damage quick enough while he was walking backward to keep some distance and be safe.
The camp had a blood trail running from it, up a path the leads to inside the fort. First stop to hit was the Western Cannon-Wall which was guarded by Wild Mages and others and inside would be just as bad, if not worse.
"Now that I have sorted you all out I shall go inside the Old Myrad Hall and investigate some clues to my contacts death" Octharg thought as he got ready to go inside after killing the enemies guarding the place.
Inside as he entered there were different bandits walking around and chatting, not just weak ones either but some strong damage dealing fools that would give some thrill and excitement to Octharg.
"Perish you foolish bandits and give me all your loot and blood!" he shouted while summoning his Mud Elemental and then using Life Absorption right away to take some out.
Since there were many of them, Octharg had to maneuver about the room while shooting arrows and weakening each of them. Eventually they started dropping and his strategy helped to avoid taking too much damage.
At first it looked like the fight would be hard to win since they weren't weak as a combined force, but prevailing through and maneuvering showed what dodging arrows and weapons is all about.
The Old Myrad Hall Quarters was going to be a completely different story with the power inside. That power resides in the Entropist waiting to destroy any entering and wanting to mess with them.
"How dare you enter this place and think you can stop us. Feel my wrath and the force of evil as I destroy your mind and body all at once" the Entropist shouted as he went for Octharg.
It started as a back and forth trade before the Entropist quickly got the upper-hand and shredded through the life of our mighty villain and caused a painful first death.
Next time around was a lot smoother for Octharg as he summoned his Ice Elemental to get in the Entropists face while he worked the health down from a safer distance and while not being attacked right away.
It was ending up close to another death once again, but luckily using Psychosis a few times made Dreameater more powerful and ensured the damage completely destroyed the Entropist and allowed Octharg to continue forward.
"Ah what a mighty battle! This time I was victorious but now I will loot your corpse and see where this place takes me."
It was well worth the battle to have been killed once due to the loot just on the Entropist, oh the sweet glorious loot and the value as well.
Luckily there wasn't much more to explore here and just in the room the Entropist had come from, was the contact Pahtira for the quest and the delivery could be completed and her thanks for saving her as well.
"I am too weak after dealing with those people and my capture or I would help you out. The steering unit is most likely in Fortress Sourcewatch, so if you are able to handle yourself, best to go there to retrieve it."
"You be safe out there and I will go get the steering unit, just get back to Ark and I will meet you back there when I am finished here" Octharg explained.
Pahtira ran out of there to get safe while Octharg looked around some more before leaving to get to another Fortress and try clear it out.
"Well look at this chest, better use a scroll to open it up since I don't have the skills... And score! Fire Elemental will be excellent to use, some other things I could use as well."
This was a great ending to a tough run, that Fire Elemental would get used a lot in the upcoming adventuring but for now, it was time to head back outside and take a sit down and relax a while due to some pain and being really worn out from this place.
This was part 21 in a series accompanying Octharg The Destroyer on his journey to regain his lost power and become the destroyer he once was.
Stay tuned for part 22 and see what befalls our villain.
