[Mafia] Witch Trip 2: The Witch is Back

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

1. Phikul's learned ( the hard way ) that his bardic magic is useless here. And he can't make the forest around him bend to his will the way his sibling does. And even they, a full spirit, aren't that good at it either, so what chance does a half-blood like him have?
Among the warriors of the Malukkapyuha, he is the only one who fights with words and melodies rather than strength and weapons, but the latter seems to be the only solution to the situation at hand.
He doubts himself, remembering how his arms trembled like leaves when he handled Lord Setamalukka's legendary sabre. How his bones felt like they would give away and send him lying crumpled beneath the blade.
But he pushes those memories aside as he scrabbles towards a tree, shifting into a humanoid as he grabs onto a branch. He eventually manages to snap it off. 
The person draws closer.
Without a second thought, he plunges the splintered end of the branch into them, then shifts into a dove and flies away, disappearing into the sky.

2. Phikul's Forest-Spirit nature overtakes him. Not the instinct of a graceful, ethereal protector of nature, but something more primal. He is not a mere guardian any longer, but a force of nature, perhaps even nature itself.
Trees become clawed hands that strangle the hikers. Golden, deer-like shapes appear from the shadows, closing in on the survivors. But these antlered phantoms are no mere illusions. The bloody mess of antler-impaled, hoof-crushed bodies is all too real.
He cannot see the carnage he has caused, but the sounds, the smell that hangs in the air, that's enough to satisfy the bloodthirsty Spirit.

3.Amidst the blurred visions of his spirit-vision, Phikul can make out a bright spot of light.
He wonders if this is another trick of the evil Spirits. They're are all too familiar to him.
But once again, there seems to be no other way.
So as with before, he turns into a dove, trying his best to ignore the phantom pains, and flies into the light.

1. The branch does the trick as you stab the possessed one right through the heart. You don't even look back as you fly away in your dove form.

Rolled 8.

2. You take control of the trees as well as your own phantom beings. But the group is more resourceful than they appeared to be. They avoid everything you throw at them as they gather around you and kill you without any of them taking any losses.

Rolled 2.

3. Your dove form easily gets through the light. You manage to avoid the Witch and the dark spirits with ease as you escape, back to Earth.

Rolled 9.

Phikul has scored a total of 19 points.

You wake up among the Camp as if nothing happened. Was it a dream? Was it reality? You're not really sure.
