[HQ Ignorance] Re : Re : Re : Re : Scene 122: The Tower of the General

[Damien Bosman]

Hmmmm....This could be extremely risky and I'm not sure of the ability of
Water Sight......Rikku shouts to his comrades to rush to the stairwell to
get to higher ground. Once at the top of the stairs Rikku attempts to create
a flood of Water below them in the corridor to flood the doors and the
corridor, leaving only the guards on the higher floor to deal with.

[I'm hoping that will deal with everyone below and the guards coming from
the doors on the ground floor. On the higher floor at the top of the
stairwell, Rikku will prepare to defend against any guards on this level.
This plan depends on a) Water Sight being able to "create water" rather than
just direct water - although that could work too if there is a source of
water to work from b) An accurate flooding of the lower levels that doesn't
rise to the higher floors with my Water Sight 20. I'm willing to spend Hero
Points btw. As for getting out of the castle afterwards, we'll deal with
that later. I may spend some points in Air Sight to allow breathing under
water. Also, what would the effect of that much water on wooden puppets be?
