Team Nippon [@VitaVitaAR][@PKMNB0Y][@Crimson Paladin] [hr] “Ah! Sorry!” The native replied. “Right uh, you’re not exactly...dressed well, well. Uhm, uhm...” She frowned, a small pout overcoming her features. “Oda, Novak, and Misaki.” Lazirha hopped away from the group down the path and towards the beach. “We should get going! Don’t wanna get caught out here after nightfall. We should be fine as long as the Kyrinth doesn’t cross our path.” She flashed Misaki a grin. “Eheh, but if you get too cold, I’d be fine with you sticking to me.” She then bolted off ahead of the group, heading north along the beach. Assuming the group followed, they would find a mostly uneventful journey. The walk was thankfully peaceful, the waves gently crashing against the shore. Several birds similar to the ones they had encountered in the other place flew overhead, or were hopping along the beach but most didn’t seem to pay them any mind. A gentle breeze carrying with it the smell of salt and brine, but otherwise calm and lazily following them on their journey. “You guys must have come from pretty far away. What’s your home like?” She asked, turning and walking backwards along the beach to keep facing them as they traveled. “I’ve never been outside of my village very far. ” Perhaps now would be a good time to ask her questions as well instead of being on the receiving end. In the distance, not too far away, smoke gently rose into the sky, and a few wooden piers could be seen jutting out into the shallow water with some nets and other primitive maritime gear nearby. The Roma Mob [@ERode][@Pyromania99][@PaulHaynek][@Guy0fV4lor] [hr] Augusta’s idea to use that same energy as before seemed to work well. Focusing the energy inwards, she allowed it to flow, feeling it and directing what she could towards the end of her hand. The energy began coalescing in her hand, a bright blue ball of energy forming. With a single motion, Augusta then launched it towards the wretch. It sailed through the air, striking the thing in the chest. The creature was stopped mid strike, a loud, pained gurgle as its flesh was burned by the projectile, giving Isidore the opening he’d need to strike it down with little trouble. His first move was to release Octavia. The pup leaped forward as the creature attempted to make some sort of attack, but it was futile. It gurgled, Isidore’s sword slicing into the muscles keeping its hand locked around its blade. Isidore caught it, taking a moment to send it sliding across the ground to the others and barely avoiding a clawed strike from the weakened creature. Swiftly standing up once more, Isidore’s blade would sink deep into the creature's flesh, its legs giving out as blood poured from the wound and sending it crashing to the ground. Its life was finally ended by Isidore’s boot. As Isidore fully engaged the target, Octavia deftly dodged around the creatures feet, the chain around its neck clattering against the ground. The pup snarled, dodging the nails of one as it made a weak swipe towards it. Its jaw opened, dozens of vicious teeth latching onto the creatures ankle. It shrieked, foul blood spilling around the wound. Octavia growled, and with a mighty pull she yanked the thing off its feet, sending it crashing to the ground. In the next instant, she leaped onto the creature's back, jaw locking onto the beings throat as she started to viciously tear and rip its throat. It died, writhing in agony, but at least whatever it was, was hopefully at peace now. - yet that left one more. Isidore would barely have time to react as the third lunged for him with surprising swiftness, teeth bared with intent to rip and tear. It seemed however, luck or fate was still on his side. Before it could reach him, the thing slammed its skull into a wall of steel with a solid clunk as Donovan’s shield caught it mid lunge. It recoiled backwards, the sudden impact dazing and giving them enough time to finish it off without much issue.

It yipped happily, circling once before dashing off down some stairs. [hr] Team feet pics [@Cu Chulainn][@Click This] [hr] Undeterred, the two kept running for the gate. Narkissa attempting to split the stone giants attention by putting some distance between Malphas and herself. Yet, what would that accomplish. The giant was focused on them, to be sure but it wanted to prevent them from getting to the gate. Blue colored light filled the ridges on the giant's body. Malpha’s feet felt light, somehow. Just how far would his faith carry him? His beliefs. His purpose. How could he die or stay here, trapped in this little realm with a stone giant? No, he couldn’t. He had far grander plans. Things to accomplish. Instead of raising its sword, the light seemed to gather near the giants feet. Narkissa could see Malphas, just barely making it faster than her towards the gate, but something else would grab her attention. The earth began rumbling, throwing off their footing and slowing them ever so slightly. The ground cracked, a mass of earth and jagged rock splitting the ground between the two, yet it was not focused on them. The two would barely have time to register the earthen wall that now had split them apart. But that wasn’t what would concern them the most. The earthen wall had completely enveloped the gatehouse. Jagged rocks covered it completely, its sides enveloped perfectly that one wouldn’t have even known what was under there had they had not previously seen it. Narkissa’s own energy wasn’t faring well. The stone giant flourished its blade, seemingly not in a hurry to chase them now that their route of exit seemed to be blocked. How could she get around this stone wall? The only options seemed to be to run towards the building she had seen the previous group that exited flee from, or face the giant itself. Malphas’ energy was fading faster, any more strain might have unintended consequences, but perhaps, perhaps he could pull off a miracle of some sort here. After all, miracles were brought about by both faith, and humanities ingenuity. Now, what would they do here? [hr] The Lonely Pixie [hr] [@1charak2] “I am under no obligation to entertain you nor aid you.” He replied, gaze briefly looking towards the book she was holding. “If you wish to search this cast off fragment of history, then do it yourself.” His gaze seemed to linger on the book, but quickly he would turn his attention back to the staircase, slowly starting to circle around it, feet tapping against the floor in an odd manner. “However...perhaps what you seek lay within the depths of this realm.” He placed his hands upon the side of the stairs as he walked. Was he looking for something? He obviously knew something about this place judging from his mannerisms. “I am heading there myself, and should you choose to follow me I do not care...so long as you do not get in the way of my objective.” He had finally circled around back to the front of the stairs, flexing his claws with an irritated, animalistic growl. “Tch...she did lock this place up tight, huh...” Back still to Alice, he glanced over his shoulder. “Make your decision, for you only get opportunities once, fairy. I can get us into it, but it will be a one way trip and there may not be an exit for you.” From under his cloak he pulled out a single, red colored arrow that had a serrated tip. “And there will likely be more of those creatures that exist in the prison under here.” [hr] The cat girl [@Crusader Lord] Leannah was swift to act, the creature’s blade missing its target as metal clanged against metal deftly deflecting the weapon and sending the creature stumbling forward, unable to control its own momentum very well. It fell forward, Leannah’s spear in the next instant meeting its face. The spear drove deep into the creature's skull, causing it to gurgle in pain as its head was suddenly jerked backwards by the opposing force. How right this felt, fighting in such a manner. Almost as though her body was made for this sort of thing. A certain adrenaline rush flowed through her body as the creature’s body convulsed, death throes of a wretched being until its final last breath escaped its withered maw. The creature went limp, still impaled on the reincarnators spear, the deed done. She was alone again. The room was square in shape, a narrow set of stairs carved into a nearby wall that led up the tower. Rubble blocked a doorway leading elsewhere, leaving her only seeming option being up. As the adrenaline started to fade, she’d feel something ‘click’. Almost as if she had finally adjusted to her new body.
