Now we could hear him talking but also hard banging on the sturdy door to the room we'd been summoned into, and he looked scared about us and the noise. The smarter of us decided to ask what you want us to do ~~â€“~~ all reasonable like and as if we cared.

	He was actually working to save Alusia from being unbalanced due to recent cosmic events and huge magical energy events that threatened to rip Alusia apart if he ~~didnâ€™t~~ find a way to fix it. He was our planar protector and charged with keeping Alusia in one piece. ~~Heâ€™d~~ discovered that our plane was imbalanced and needed a lot of planar energy to fix so he tapped into another plane using some super-powerful esoteric magic and was draining that plane and replenishing Alusia â€“ for the good of us all it would seem. The â€˜small side-~~effectâ€™~~ was the other plane (possible of the Sword Worlds) was destabilising while being drained â€“ but Alusia was getting better bit by bit with the added planar energy. He did use the cracking eggs analogy which we understood and so we said, â€œOK ~~weâ€™re~~ onboard with thisâ€ and ~~weâ€™d~~ evict the intruders.

	We told the enemy that ~~itâ€™s~~ unfortunate, but the truce had one more minute and then either they were gone of their own volition, or the eviction was back on.

	Saddened but understanding the minute passed quickly and then the murderous mayhem was all on again.		Saddened but understanding the minute passed quickly and then the murderous mayhem was all on again.

	So, another couple of minutes ensued with us killing and moving, killing and moving, killing and moving and so on until finally we flushed them down to their last bastion whilst keeping them from finding the masters secret apartment and control room. The master had said we needed to do the job quickly and before they found him, or ~~heâ€™d~~ use some planar energy to purge the living from the tower with fatal consequences for all inside.

	We almost died many times and only the liberal application of vast healing magics, lucky and tenacity mean that we ~~didnâ€™t~~ fail in the mayhem throughout the towers many floors and rooms.

	In the end they fled by way of his portal room to other locations on Alusia and we made to follow them to finish them off. The 1st portal went to somewhere in Hindia and when we went to pursue and kill the enemy the locals said ~~theyâ€™d~~ deal with them, and we should so and cleanse our chakra or some rubbish so we let them to it. The 2nd portal went through to Tac and we followed them there until we came across a Tac patrol who were very rude to us and told us to f$ off as they would deal with those we were chasing. We questioned the wisdom of this and offered to do it for them, but they resisted and said that the people in question were protected by the great Tac Guild who had been retained by these people for protection et all, and we could piss off back to Seagate.

	We failed to see any advantage in pushing the matter, wiping the rude patrol out and starting a guild war with Tac so we withdrew back to the portal, subjected to vile taunts by the Tac men, with whom ~~weâ€™ll~~ have a reckoning soon enough I feel.

	Anyway, we returned to the tower, helped clean the refuse / mess away (as well as liberating itemry from the dead enemy) and chose a reward of special lore for our troubles.
