Doom Comes To Saluma

Cara watches the fighting with the others. Kasi looks annoyed that she can't join in, but the rest are happy to just watch. It's not like the fighting here mattered much in the end. Even if they win and take the whole city, slaughter its inhabitants, if Doom fails and Alkadabuki returns, she can single handedly reclaim the city and kill all of them, in the end this is just a formality. An attempt to progress their conquest a bit while they wait for the outcome of Doom's fight and if he succeeds then the city will already be mostly or completely his. It is also a distraction to stop anyone from possibly going and trying to help Alkadabuki fight against Doom.

Kasi stiffens and lets out a surprised exhalation after a bit, "Damn, he really did it... I just felt the Weasel die. Doom actually killed a Totem Spirit, I bet the weasel tribe aren't too happy right now," she mutters for the benefit of the others.

"That seems like a good sign," Cara thinks to herself. The fighting on the walls is going badly for the defenders, what they have in numbers they severely lack in skill and ability. They aren't bad fighters, but a suitably powerful monster is more than a match for a small army of just okay fighters. People who can fight alone against even a normal monster are rare. The monsters the dungeon has produced are not world ending threats or anything, but they are enough to hopefully take the city, of course somewhere in that city there are such monster slaying champions and they might be a problem.

"Rio, Lianna, The Queen's Servant and Elizabeth we know are in that city and each of them is a threat, it's also likely there's at least a few truly skilled fighters among the Golden Horde, after all there's multiple tribes that make up that horde and each one should have at least one champion," Cara whispers and Vox nods.

"We will probably have to step in eventually, once the fighting gets past the wall and moves deeper into the city most likely," Vox speaks and then opens her mouth to say more when the sky suddenly darkens, all of them feel a rush of cold gripping them like the air itself is freezing around them.

"What... What the hell is this?" Belleza asks, hugging herself tightly as her body shakes. The rest are similarly struggling against the terrifying cold that suddenly hit them. They turn as one to see the source.

Doom still in his final form approaches, sweeping over the landscape, his fell wings outstretched, blocking out the sky and the sun. The fighting on the wall ceases as the fighters, monster and warrior alike spot the encroaching horror.

The women are frozen in place as the creature draws closer and then its skeletal hands reach out and gently pets each of them on the head, "you've done well, but I will take it from here," Doom speaks with multiple mouths and Vox's mouth drops open.

"Doom?!" she exclaims in surprise and awe.

"The same..." he says and then flows past them. On the wall the warriors begin to flee. abandoning the battle, frozen as it was anyways. Doom reaches the wall and slips through the gate unchallenged. What few warriors do try to put up a fight, are swiftly silenced, a cloud of **** expanding out from Doom that chokes the life out of them. By the time Doom reaches the city center, all those who hadn't fled are dead and the city has fallen.
