[quote=@Dark Cloud] [center][color=crimson][h3]Mortus[/h3][/color][/center][hr][hr] Mortus opened his eyes and looked around at everyone in the room [color=crimson]"Damn it, everyone evacuate the castle. I have received a vision that our keep is about to be assailed by a beast of epic proportions! Flee you fools!"[/color] in an instant he was standing, as he did he grabbed the strange object and rushed to the door and threw it open. [/quote] [color=red][i]"Well, isn't this just a pickle? Still, looks like I'll still be getting fed today,"[/i][/color] Seggorath noted, the hunger in her tone evident. Maere shook his head with a sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose momentarily. [color=#f05825]"I'll grab the boy."[/color] And with that he promptly walked over to Promien, who was still clucking his blackened heart out, and swung right for his face. With the necromancer successfully rendered unconscious, Maere hoisted him over his shoulder. That done, he swiftly left the room, his body becoming enveloped in its demonic carapace in the process. [b]After leaving the castle and placing Promien somewhere relatively safe, Maere summoned Ashrune to his hand, its form more akin to a flaming ember than an actual blade. Striding off, he went to lie in wait for the creature, planning on taking it down in one fell swoop.[/b]
