With deep concentration you send your thoughts out to the Elemental Plane, unsure as to the kind of aid the elementals will send. The cost of this is 1 WILLPOWER point.
The clouds above your head darken, and with a smile you realize the nature of the help that has been sent to you. A sudden shower drenches the plants around you, their red hearts growing pale and their sharp barbs opening out into rows of tubules, drinking in the rarity of water from the sky.
As the plants lie limp and quiescent, you and Shan jump, with unchallenged ease, past the lethal Yaku and on towards your goal. As night begins to fall, Shan gives a sigh of relief: far off in the distance you catch your first glimpse of the Great Wall of Azakawa.
You break into a stumbling run, anxious to reach the boundary of the Azanam before nightfall.
