But it was too little too late. The pentagram was still powered, the bleed between realities continuing. And as Wong went to cast another spell to aid you, he found himself in mortal peril - a swarm of imps descended upon him, a small legion, so many that as they circled him, he was entirely blocked from view. Ananym coughed, strange green blood trailing down her face. She was burned heavily now, her wounds healing yes, but it was slow. She looked like she was a corpse pulled from the flames, her hair gone, her clothes thick with the stench of smoke. If her actions had started an Inferno, even she was not spared from the flames. But she still spoke with your father's voice. "[i]I[/i] have no right? I have every right. I was born to rule Limbo. I was born to burn your precious, pathetic little world to the ground," Ananym taunted. "I was born to destroy everything. Just like you were. You were afraid of your destiny. But I'm not!" And with a cry, electricity filled Ananym's hands, and she grabbed you, electrocuting her foe. But she was not immune to her own attack, her charred flesh cracking from the power, as she leaned forward, sinking her teeth into your neck and biting down [i]hard[/i], hard enough to draw blood. [@KazAlkemi][@Nallore]: Zelma had just finished helping Carolina to find a banishment scroll, the magic imbued into the parchment itself so that way anyone could cast it, even those without a shred of magical talent. When she glanced up at your remark, her face paled rapidly. "Don't touch that!" she snapped, harsher than she intended. "That's Pandora's box. Inside is [i]Hope[/i] - with a capital H [i]Hope[/i]. The very concept itself. If you open it... There's no telling what will happen." Carolina, you however, would see a vision flicker before her eyes - a vision of Annika opening the box, of a blinding white light consuming Ananym, consuming herself.

Her word was her bond. They had met her challenge, had accomplished her task. They had done what Thor could not do - what the best of Asgard had been unable to do. Perhaps there was something worth saving here - perhaps these lives were worth preserving. She had not been able to see the horn run dry, but she had felt it - had felt Prudence's careful spell, her magic. And Klara, gentle Klara, she was too innocent for lies. She was not like Runa - and would never be like her. So this was their task then. Their task was to help - to aid. The restoration of the veil was paramount. They bowed their head slightly, their cape billowing behind them, as they called upon their magics - their magics as Sorcerer Supreme of this time, and of another. And they chanted not in the tongue of Midgardians, but in the All-Tongue - in the language of the Asgardians, of the gods. [center][color=#a81a75]"Through heart and soul of the Fifth Eternity, the world hears my call, Invaders from horizons unbound, and hunters of the frail, In the name of Agamotto, son of Oshtur, the Earth rejects your might, May the Divide of the Cosmos stand tall, and never fall to ruin, Lest we wither and lament the endless war of chaos everlasting. May those who trespass these sacred bounds mourn their fate, And the wicked from lands unseen be banished from whence they came, The land, the sky, and the soul of Life defy the Great Beyond, By decree of the Sorcerer Supreme, none shall trespass upon this Veil."[/color][/center] The last fragment. The final piece. The veil, renewed. To those able to see, the pentagram up in the skies would dissipate - the colliding worlds would vanish. Yet Ananym remained. Her demons remained. New York was still threatened - the veil repaired, but still fragile, still weak. Still in need of defense.
