The Agents gathered to discuss a mission that could potentially be a trap. Mountain held a small mission briefing which outlined the mission parameters.
The Agents teleported to the arid land of Eastern Thanalan. Two groups were formed; one led by Nocturne who’s focus was on recon, while the second group led by Mountain was to be back-up should the situation escalate.
In true Astral Agents fashion the situation did escalate. Both groups were attacked by Mud creatures, who were being animated through the use of Ninjutsu.
A fight ensued, the start of the battle began with powerful attacks clearing many of the Mud creatures. However as the battle stretched on many of the Agents became overpowered. Especially Suwan and Mountain who the Mud creatures seemed to heavily target - the two Magick powerhouses could not do much as they focused on fending off their attackers.
Many of the Agents were slashed and or stabbed by the Mud creatures who had blades for hands. Aerik arrived and was able to cast a Healing Rain which restored the group, however that relief was short lived as a massive explosion suddenly went off. Over half of the second group was blown up. Suwan and Alistair took much of the blast’s damage. Suwan spent much of the late half of the mission mending himself.
Nearing the end of the fight Nocturne’s team had terminated their attackers and they then regrouped with Mountain’s team. The Agents got their second wind thanks to a mixture of Mage Ballad and Healing Magicks, the remaining Mud creatures were then quickly slain.
The one responsible for animating the Mud creatures revealed himself and immediately attacked Nocturne. Suwan had mended himself enough, he cast a Spell on Nocturne and Balance Card on the Agents, while Aerik blinded the attacker. Together the Astral Agents combined their attacks and defeated the true enemy.
The battle was done thanks to the combined efforts of all the Agents. Aerik and Suwan cast multiple Healing Spells upon everyone, which stabilized the heavily injured and soothed the weak. Suwan had used up too much of his powers, so Leon teleported the Agents to the Agency’s Aetheryte.
Reks had prepared the Infirmary for the injured Agents. Kitakaze and Reks then tended to the injured. Several Agents rested over night in the Infirmary. The mission was completed and no one died.
