The Lava Flow

The Lava · Rerouted Lava

Lava pouring slowly into Larracos, rerouted to fill the upper levels through a funnel before descending.

Story so far

With the Larracos towers that could fire on The Nest destroyed and the rest now silent as the remaining friends hide, the lava continues to pour slowly into the city. It has been rerouted to fill the upper levels through a funnel before moving downward.

Carl notes it will reach level 50 soon, at which point the defenders hiding in the Larracos College of Magic will have no choice but to move. It is one of two clocks running against them, alongside the roughly five hours before the The War Mages team holding The Castle would win Faction Wars.

Appearance

Molten rock pouring steadily into the city's upper levels through a funnel before working its way downward.

Role

A rising deadline forcing the defenders out of the college.

Relationships

Larracos — The city being flooded.
Larracos College of Magic — Its defenders will be forced to move when the lava reaches level 50.
The Nest — The towers that could fire on it are all destroyed.
