The illusion was not working. It was too simple, they were alreay seeing through it. Time for a change of tact.<br/><br/>The soldiers all vanished and the scenery around the group began to seemingly distort and change. When it settled, each memeber of the party was seeing a different image.<br/><br/>To Arkain, there was nothing but a vast plain of ice, stretching in all directions.<br/><br/>Gold would think himself in a pitch black cave with the sound of dripping water and fearsome beasts.<br/><br/>Eric found himself on a narrow ledge on the side of a cliff.<br/><br/>Wendy's surroundings stayed the same but immediately burst into flames.<br/><br/>To Crystal, her companions just vanished and the forest became eerily silent. Except for the mocking laughter of the one hunting her.<br/>"There is no escape, Crystal. Give in and you may live to see another day."<br/><br/>((I think I'd better explain the illusions. Most of it is in the persons mind. They will see something but nothing will have actually changed. They will feel cold and heat and pain though but any injuries will vanish with the illusion.))
