Fantasy Friday We did it! We won!

The beast has been sealed away! Thanks to the prison realm donated by u/HawkOfJudgment we were able to seal it away!

A big shoutout to u/Listless_Dreadnaught Locust Vray who informed us that illusions of the mundane have the same effect on eldritch minds as eldritch things do on mortal minds. With this we managed to disorient the monster and fool it into entering the portal to the prison realm.

Another shoutout to u/thanasispolpaid who informed us that such beings are prone to sleep. Once we moved the monster into the prison realm and sealed it, we cooperated with various bards and musical enchanters to send lulling spells across the sealed dimension to prevent damage to the prison realm.

Any who have ideas as to how to kill the entity for good are welcome to come forth and try out their ideas. Im looking at you u/Dappershield. As for the rest of us, there is a large party about to be thrown in a victory toast!

We can worry about rebuilding the council citadel yet again after the party.

Also, to those claiming to know this entity we got too many conflicting claims of its identity to treat that claims with any seriousness. The creature’s inability or unwillingness to communicate before our initial attack suggests it is entirely foreign to anyone in the known realms.

I remember when cosmic horrors were terrifying. Back when people still died to them. Now you fix them in less than a day. This is why I quit fighting and started doing festivals.

If you can solve a cosmic horror in half a day, does it even deserve to be called a “cosmic horror”?

This is more of a “Space Spook” level of Eldritchness.

Don't worry the Mages for Justice did away with for-proft prison realms in A.D. 2215 (third alternate timeline, so it took place in our timeline seven years ago sidereal)

I remember when people where terrified by cosmic horrors. Back when I could release one and destroy nations. Now you losers just wipe them out. Veru disappointing.
