[color=92278f][h3]The Fungal Knight - Setting the Stage[/h3][/color] After hearing the incredibly loud and intimidating war cry from his opponent, Bonesword's soul raced around within him. She was angry, that's for certain, and in his experiences that didn't mean that she was going to play completely fairly. Although, while people in rage do have a tendency to be reckless and blood-lusted, it could be pretty beneficial on the other side of the spectrum as they don't think rationally. If Bonesword could play his cards right (and dance around a sword with enough mastery), he could outlive her and stay on top of it all. He was curious about one thing, though. What was the wish of his opponent? He forgot to ask for Big-Big's wish, but he could at least ask her wish before it was all over. Maybe the two could reach a compromise, as far-fetched as that sounded considering her current state.

What was once a beach, cast out before a large rock, was now an oasis, still growing by the second. Thick walls of cacti and trees lined the area, even providing some tight corners from within, as a circular area remained in the center, with thick roots casting down from the skeleton's feet. His vision was becoming a reality, as Bonesword knew that what he was doing would give him an edge. One that he'd likely need in order to survive against the opponent. [@Roughdragon1][@Lugubrious]
