"Nothing on the astral plane, he is gone for the moment. I suspect he is looking for Pater". she says.
Turning to Liam, Sandy begins, "Yes the idea was to hit him, Asmoudeus, with enough force and damage that we kill the body instantly. Otherwise we are all toast, literally because he will loose a fireball on par with a small nuclear warhead if he thinks he is going to die on the plane. It can't kill him, since his soul is in a soul box, but he does hate losing his corporal body on this plane. Its the reason that he can't bother Padre and I, unless this Portal is open, and only while the planes are in conjungtion as they are."
Liam seems to think about this for a minute, so I continue. "The swords by themsleves won't kill him, but because they are magical and consume energy, they totally interfer with a persons magic ability if they get it stuck in them, even if they have a thousand hit points or are undead. So the idea, when he comes back is to spread out basically in a circle or clump and when he is "busy with one" we hit him from behind. That will distract and disrupt his magic abilities and resistences, and the four Magic Users hit him with massive fire, cold and electricity spells. "
The light goes on over his head. "Got it!"
