I rolled out of the way as the the golems charged my way. The other golems started to attack the others, but the blood one was focused on me so I pulled out my morningstar and swung it at its leg. The construct didn't seem to notice as hit smacked me away, with my weapon still stuck inside it. My head slammed onto the stone floor and stars popped in front of my eyes.

My vision cleared just in time for me to avoid a large foot from crushing me. I grabbed the weapon and yanked it from the bloody hunk of meat. I put it away, switching for a different weapon when Seltyiel came into view and plunged his rapier into the blood golem. It didn't seem to notice that either as it continued to walk towards me.

"Stand back, I've faced constructs before. I can handle it." Seltyiel said as he attacked the construct again. Says the guy who couldn't defeat a sand elemental, but I kept that comment to myself. Instead I pulled out two bombs I made in anticipation for the battle and threw them into the blood golem. A deafening explosion threw us a little and covered me, and the half-elf, in some the blood of the golem. "Sorry."

"Its fine." He said, spitting out blood. "Come on, we need to help the others." I looked over and saw the stone golem missing a head, and crumbled to rocks with Klarr standing over it with his warhammer. The flesh golem had a deep wound in its side, and Pormethues took the opportunity and placed a bomb inside it. Anther deafening explosion went off and the head, a shoulder, and part of its torso was destroyed by the explosion. All that was left was the clockwork golem.

"Don't worry about us boss, we can handle it!" Pormetheus yelled. He rolled away as the golem threw down an arm, almost crushing him.

"Go deal with Morrigan!" Rattle yelled as he and his brother loosened a blast of fire, heating the metal on the clockwork golem.

I heard the vampire laugh behind us and saw him land on the floor, the book hovering near him, but also out of harms way. "You have no hope to stand against me. You two might as well accept your deaths. I might quick make it quick."

"If you can spare the codex, then fine...." Seltyiel said to me as he prepared a spell. "But don't worry if you do destroy it.....focus and Morrigans destruction."

"I already was." I said as I pulled out a bomb in each hand and we raced towards him.

Seltyiel finished his spell and shot a bolt of fire at him, but it seemed to hardly effect him at all, and I saw the codex absorb most of the spell. The vampire smiled as the tome glowed a blood red and red tendrils of arcane energy burst from the ground. I had to come to a complete stop and roll back as the tendrils slammed into the ground, moments were I just was. I saw Seltyiel quickly mutter a few words and the tendrils seemed to have hit an invisible shield, and they disappeared. I quickly threw both my bombs at the vampire and it seemed to have more of an effect, taking away some of his flesh.

"You annoying little pest." Morrigan growled as he casted another spell, this time at me. Arcane energy formed above him and launched them at me, one by one. I ended up sprinting away, and I could feel the force of the missiles hit the ground behind. As I ran I saw Seltyiel mutter and did gestures for another spell. When he finished he launched three rays of intense heat on the vampire, each finding its mark, and each doing a considerable amount of damage. The arcane missiles stopped flowing and Morrigan screamed in pain, as his fleshed sizzled and burned. I continued running, not giving him another chance to attack as I pulled out a potion with green liquid and black scales. I drank the potion and shot out a line of acid at him and burned his skin even more. He screamed even more, but this time it didn't seem to be in pain, but more in anger. He quickly raised his hand it in front o him, and a wave of red energy flew out from the book, sending us both flying back.
