A form, lithe and silent as the grave, swam up beside Endian with remarkable ease and little worry given the built-in propulsion to its frame. Close inspection in the murky waters would reveal him to be none other than [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/f4/2f/43/f42f43bee29808911e14887b7c00964f.jpg]Stark Zealot[/url]. It was too good to be true, his very presence a cold reminder to Endian that her actions in the Battle of Dianex had not gone unnoticed by the High Queen. As a result, she had sent her Hunter, Stark Zealot, to not only participate in this battle but to also keep an eye on Endian herself as well. The tactician didn’t need a briefing to understand what his appearance meant for her. [color=a2d39c]“Awaiting sufficient orders from Tactical Unit,”[/color] he said a second time, voice robotic and uncaring for what she thought of him. If she failed to impress, he would end her and turn his sight on the latest Endian model. But as of this moment she need not worry as he would provide back-up to wherever she directed him.

The girl named [url=http://i.imgur.com/ucZkiZY.jpg]Bastion[/url] crossed her arms and watched the waters all around her boil and bubble with the tell-tale signs of fighting. Gone was the girl who had tried to stop the conflicts; having been stolen away, the vampire known as Victoire had done well in breaking her in body and mind. Now here she was as an elite soldier and ally of the Demonkind. Ready to kill anything that dared to breach the water’s surface in the name of Hell and King Rufus.
