As they regroup, Sarah glances down at the Tallus, looking puzzled for a few moments.

"Alright... the Tallus is trying to tell me the next step. We need to take the sword to 'our place of greatest strength', and 'bring back what was lost.'" She offers the soul sword towards Quinn. "I think I'm supposed to give this to you."

	"Gargoyle? Big, green horse-faced bastard?" Macendale asked. "Yeah," the soldier confirmed. "You know 'im?" "You could say that." he turns back to the Exiles. "N'Astirh. I'd bet money on it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Very powerful demon sorcerer. The guy's a schemer's schemer, always thinking ahead and usually knows more about his enemies than you'd like. He was the mastermind behind the invasion and the guy who corrupted the queen-bitch."

Macendale looks a little sheepish for a moment. "And did this to me, er, us. If he's here, odds are he knows something of what we're up to."

	Quinn knew he was in England. He could feel the power coursing through him. "Bring it on." Yeah, he could totally do this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, little point in stealth. If Mjolnir weren't a big enough magical alert, the sword, and Quinn being here pretty much guarantees stealth won't work out for us. We're going to have to spring whatever trap he has set." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Springing the trap's my job, then," Dory said, stretching out the muscles in his neck. "I can manufacture the natural body armor, and I've got the healing factor. Sarah can take a hit, but I'd rather have her dishing them out with Mjolnir than trying to do it with my bare hands." It was true, but he wasn't necessarily happy about it.

At times, she'd probably argue. She's still hurting from the fight with the Darkchilde, though, and it is kind of nice being being able to spread the tanking duties out a little.

"Alright, nothing too complicated. Don't want anyone too set on a plan when the enemy might be listening. Gwenny, play spotter for Quinn. Whatever happens, he needs to get his magic work done... right as soon as we figure out exactly what it is he needs to do. Any suggestions?" she asks, glancing at their new demonic affairs expert.

"Considering the Summers kid was killed in a powerful ritual, the place the resurrection spell should be cast at should be somewhere sanctified. Doesn't have to be a church, but somewhere free of corruption, maybe somewhere a lot of magic is performed. When we got a place, we should probably form some kind of defense around it," Macendale suggested. "Also, we better act fast. If he hasn't been here long, we may have a chance to find a spot before N'Astirih makes them useless."

	"Stonehenge?" Quinn asked. "It's the only place I can think of." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Stonehenge... old magic, sacred to some, and being outdoors will give us an edge. I'm not the best at the weather-stuff... but I ought to be able to take the skies away from them. Given the numbers involved, I'm guessing that we're willing to stay grounded if it keeps them that way too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's a good idea," Macendale agreed. "What about the kid?" he asked, indicating Illyanna, who still looked confused and a little scared. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gwenny listens to Sarah and nods, then "If we find a place for you to sit and wait and hope we can find Piotr, you can be brave, right?" Gwenny asks the girl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If we are being watched, wherever she's put, they may come after her. Gwenny, much as I hate to split up any further, can you help keep an eye on her? You can set up watch somewhere near where Quinn is doing the ritual - since both Illyana and Quinn will need some bodyguarding if we're going to succeed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Stonehenge still under non-demonic control?" Dory asks of one of the nearby soldiers. He'd largely stuck to the territories of the United States of America while he'd been on Earth, but if he knew about Stonehenge, it was likely that the demons did too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Illyanna looked at Gwenny with fear, but nodded once. "So far," the soldier confirmed. "Some of the buggers tried to set up shop but we drove 'em off. We got people there, figured if it was important to the demons then we'd better hold it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay ladies and gents. Hold onto your knickers," Quinn said and started the spell to teleport them to Stonehenge. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah starts focusing on Mjolnir now. If she's going to do what needs to be done, she's going to need every bit of concentration she can muster. By now, teleporting to Stonehenge isn't too bad, compared to all the times being jerked between realities. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	When they get there, Macendale takes a look at the skies. "N'Astirih must have seen us leave. Look at the sky!" And indeed it was the floating castle they had seen in London, and already winged forms could be seen departing from it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Sarah nods. "I expected that. I've been working on this..."

Control and precision, really, are her problems. She has the Rogers' will - but she isn't a god, and hasn't had enough training. Usually, that's a problem.

Not today. She's not trying to be precise here. Not trying to aim a lightning bolt. Not trying to restrain the power of the hammer. She wants a storm - all the storm it will give her. Sure, they won't be able to fly - but given the numbers, and how many of the opposing forces are used to air superiority - she figures it should give them an edge.

Howling winds, lightning, roiling clouds, booming thuder - she'll take it all, for the first time ever, not trying to hold anything back and just letting Mjolnir's unrestrained power flow to the skies.
