The sigil was still up. Nova had arrived. He didn’t know the whereabouts of Kohi. He wasn’t sure if Kaiji was still alive, even after sending lesser grims to assist him. He could feel his blood begin to boil. This wasn’t going anywhere as smoothly as he had assumed it would. It seemed as if every step he orchestrated was be thwarted by someone or something. His eyes flickered to the sigil for only a moment. If he wished to take this stronghold and send the mortals running one more to only be hunted down and preyed upon, that blasted thing needed to come down. The second light bearer had an air to him that caused Algrimar to grind his teeth. It was as if this whole event was just a big game to him. Was Algrimar's very visage not frightening enough for him? How could he gaze upon him and still provide Nova with brother's affection as if they were siblings. It enraged him. He watched as the boy scurried off like an excited squirrel. With a snarl, he reached out and up, grabbing another flying grim in his claws. That snarl slowly turned into a predatory grin as he hurled the grim after the boy, a little parting gift if he was going to turn his back on Algrimar. With that, he turned back towards the light bearer in front of him. [i]”The light does not ask your permission to rise.”[/i] Algrimar clicked his tongue against his teeth. She spoke truth enough. The very sun was the bane of every grim's existence. Its illuminating glow was toxic to them. It was why they had spent so much time and effort attacking in the middle of the night. The later in the night, the weaker their defenses. The beast of the man straightened to his full height, a dark smile across his face as he watched Nova. [color=#df430d]“What is wrong, little lightbug?[/color] It seemed like you buckled there a moment under my flames. Is your light fading?” He let out a mad cackle as he took a step towards her, bringing his claws up to bare. [color=#df430d]“Well, little lightbug. Let us see those guts of yours. Come forth so we can bring this to a decisive end.”[/color] He flexed his hand, his claws flashing under the bright light of the moon above.
