Book 3. Chapter 59
A huge bulking form distorted the surface of the water, but Brin didn’t even get to see what it was before a wave of black spears from Hogg stabbed it back down.
The roiling waters calmed for a moment, but no one was fool enough to think that the fight was over. Brin could still faintly see the dark shadows of creatures beneath the waves.
He looked between Hogg and Lurilan and his mind was called to one of his Skills that he often forgot about. Not because it wasn’t good, but because it worked so seamlessly that he often didn’t realize he was using it. [Battle Sense]. And what his Skill was telling him was that neither Lurilan nor Hogg were all that worried. The optimal path to victory would be for both of them to charge into the waves, or better yet shoot arrows and projectiles of hard light into the water.
Instead, they were going to wait for the monsters to surface. Either they aimed at letting the teens get some practice in, or they didn’t want to reveal their full power until they had a better idea of what they were up against. Whatever the case, the fact remained that the two heavy hitters weren’t going to take care of everything. Things were going to get exciting really soon.
In the last few seconds of quiet, he sent out a directed thread to make an Invisible Eye, find out where Pio was and what he was doing, and then report back.
The water started to froth again.
“Davi, play my song,” said Brin. He hoped his [Bardic] friend remembered the Doom music.
“No,” said Davi. “I think it’s time to play my song.”
Brin wasn’t sure what song that was. Did he mean the Natsu theme Brin had done that one time?
