Dialogue[]
Caption: With a scream and burst of hellfire Kushala drives out the remnants of the One Below All, and regains control over her exhausted body.
Kushala: It worked... Chee'ilth... it worked. I was able to force it out, but I’m not sure I can keep it away forever. Kushala: But whatever you are doing, keep it up. The One Below All’s power is weakening, and I can feel their grip on the symbiotes slipping. Kushala: Can you see it? The ground is stabilizing, the door has ceased expanding. Kushala: ... Kushala: But... why isn’t it closing? The symbiotes should be healing, shouldn’t they? Kushala: Chee'ilth?
- Transmission #1 - Upon starting the Quest
Caption: Kushala rushes over to Chee'ilth, whose slumped kneeling body has adopted its own irradiated glow...
Kushala: Chee'ilth! Speak to me! Kushala: Chee'ilth!
Chee'ilth: I HOWL THROUGH MANY MOUTHS, SORCERER. Kushala: No! Chee'ilth: THE HUNTRESS, IN HER ARROGANCE, CONSUMED TOO MUCH. FEASTED ON MY ESSENCE. Chee'ilth: DRAWING OUT YOUR SICKNESS WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PURIFYING HER OWN. Chee'ilth: WERE SHE NOT SO EAGER TO SAVE YOU, SHE MIGHT HAVE SAVED HERSELF. Chee'ilth: AND LIKE ALL THINGS THAT COME TO PASS, IT WILL BE FOR NOTHING. Caption: Chee'ilth, possessed by the One Below All, rises up. Arms outstretched they begin pouring the absorbed Gamma Radiation back into the planetoid.
- Transmission #2
Kushala: Summoner! We must act quickly! We may be able to save Chee'ilth and stop the One Below All, but I need your help! Kushala: When the One Below All possessed my body, I was able to use my mystical flames to drive their remnants out of my mind. Kushala: I may be able to do the same for Chee'ilth - burn off the Gamma Radiation and give her a chance to repel the One Below All. Kushala: But you must restrain her! One misstep and I risk damaging her very soul. She must be still! Kushala: We don’t have a moment to waste... are you ready?
- Transmission #3
Kushala: Devil of devils! Evil beyond evil! Cosmic Satan! I invoke thee, and demand you stand and face us! Caption: Kushala raises up a ring of hellish fire, encircling herself, the Summoner, and the possessed Chee'ilth. For a moment, Chee'ilth wavers...
Chee'ilth: Hnnng... Kushala... you gotta stop it. Stop me. Make it quick. Save everyone, before I lose... control... Kushala: No! I will not let this thing make martyrs of us! We will stop the One Below All together, just as we originally planned. Kushala: We outlast! We survive! It is what we do. And no amount of overblown oblivion can stop that. Chee'ilth: Hrrrng... Chee'ilth: CHILD. INSECT. YOU ARE A SPECK OF DUST. I AM THE STORM. THE END OF ALL THINGS. Chee'ilth: THE END OF YOU. THE END OF ALL OF YOU. Chee'ilth: YOU ARE SO EAGER TO STARE DOWN OBLIVION? LET ME OBLIGE YOU.
- Transmission #4 - Before fighting Chee'ilth
Caption: Chee'ilth’s battered body drops to one knee, struggling to stand. Kushala seizes the moment, raising a column of fire up around the possessed warrior.
Caption: The flames mingle with the green glow, drawing it out in strands that flash as the fire burns it away.
Caption: Regaining control, Chee'ilth lets loose a primal scream in a single defiant act that forces the radiation out of her body and into the hungry pyre.
Caption: The fire and Gamma Radiation meet, rising up in a brief but expansive green inferno that seem to sear the heavens themselves.
Caption: As our heroes catch their breath, they take in the strangely beautiful sight of the symbiote moon healing itself.
Chee'ilth: We did it. Holy crap, we did it. Kushala: I wasn’t worried. I knew you’d come through. Chee'ilth: I’m glad one of us did. Chee'ilth: Ya know, this place is kinda beautiful, in a weird sorta way. I wouldn’t set up a summer home here, but if this is the strangest place in the Battlerealm... Chee'ilth: ...then it might not be so bad.
