With a high-pitched whine and the sound of distant screams Godfall whirred to life, slicing into the beast's side. Glad this strategy had landed not one but two hits on his enemy Khaine knew there would be a response. And the creature didn't respond, once more glowing up blue as it aimed a beam of blue-and-white light at Godfall, and Khaine behind it. Knowing that the weapon was too valuable to risk Khaine instantly returned it to the Armoury, even as he shot to the side in order to evade the attack. Even with the fore-warning granted by Titanica's scales glowing up blue he was only able to avoid a direct hit, and the blast engulfed him. Launched head-over-heels by the shockwave from the blast's impact, he was caught by his web of chains. Swiftly janked off off and away he made sure any secondary blasts would have a much harder time targetting him, and got ready to make another move.

Luckily, Khaine had been forged in the flames of hell. While designed to be incredibly durable in general he was particularly resistant to heat. Lava was a hot bath for him, and little more. And while not composed of flames this breath weapon did appear to make use of heat to destroy it's enemies, moreso than kinetic energy or any other force. As such he'd been able to survive the blast with only minor damage, stuff he'd be able to swiftly recover from. Of course that wasn't to say he was confident in his ability to survive a direct hit - such an attack would most certainly blow holes in him, melting away significant portions of his body, even with his ability to resist heat-based attacks. But as long as he was able to predict the blasts there was no real chance of taking a direct hit, and he was certainly able to outmanoeuvre the beast.

Knowing he'd found his advantage Khaine launched himself through the sky along his web of chains. Analysis of his opponent during combat had shown him the length of the creature's limbs when extended to giant-size. With this knowledge he soared far out of it's reach, even as it once more called upon the powers of the Armoury. A thought opened up portals near Titanica's feet, as solid walls of black steel surrounded her on all sides. At the same time spears would once more erupt from the ground below her, as well as emerging from the air above her. Sandwiched in between these the beast would have no choice but to charge through the walls, on the other sides of which she would find lances set to pierce her body if she tried. The trap was completed by once more summoning Godfall while in mid-swing, orbitting the pillar at irregular speeds. While simply firing the weapon blindly through the walls might yield some results it would occupy Khaine, and might betray his position, allowing the beast to target him with it's blue beam of death. Instead he was waiting for the moment when the beast escaped this little sandwich, and charged full speed into his true trap.

A true trap, of course, was a trap one couldn't escape. The true art of war was to learn exactly what your opponent was capable of, usually by forcing them to use all of their tricks, and then to abuse that knowledge. To create a situation in which whatever they did would trigger the trap, a trap that simply could not be unravelled.

If the beast remained in the pillar, it would be skewered by lances from both sides.

If it charged through the wall with brute force it's own strength would impale it on the pikes placed outside.

If it tried to jump it would run full force into the spikes coming from above. Trying to clear the attacks coming from either direction with her breath weapon would leave her open from the other direction, once more getting impaled.

Her only real chance was her enlarging power. Based on her previous uses being consistent with one another her power was not to simply alter the size of her body parts, but rather she had two 'modes'. Normal-sized and giant-sized. If this was true her only recourse would be to return her entire body to giant size, turning the lances into needles as the trap was torn apart by the rapid increase. Of course, that was just the instant he was waiting for.

With Godfall at the ready he aimed at the currently empty sky. The moment the beast returned to it's true form it would be a target that was impossible to miss, as well as being momentarily unaware of his position. All he needed was a moment, a single clear shot, with her not knowing what direction the attack was coming from. Even then he might not be able to kill it, not in truth. After all, it was vastly more powerful than he was.

But, he would prove to it just how much folly it was to underestimate the power of a single soldier. He would teach it that even Gods can Fall.
