Who was that? Who was this figure, which one of his arms wrapped around it? It felt weird. It felt strange. Like the deathly silence in the forest. 

Wrong.

Her eyes are violet, not amethyst.

Wrong.

She was wearing no pendant.

The little runt, so new and fresh to life, had reached that conclusion first. And, as Edwin pulled away from her, it was the very first moment that his face had been twisted. His eyebrows were fully furrowed, his lips reversed, while his nostrils flared.

Even with the sudden thunderous sound from outside, his hawkish gaze never left the pretender. Not even when more joined them. [color=#0E0101]“I will rip out your face.”[/color] The declaration was done without any mirth, much different from his usual toying self. It was a promise of the uncensored violence about to come.

His left foot was the first to move, hitting the shaft of his fallen lance, making it ping against the ground and propel into the air. With a swift movement of his right hand, the dark knight caught it in mid-air.

Reaching into his back, there was a sound of steel rasping against steel. His shield, that was left securely at his back, was now wielded by his left right. The eyes of the skull embossed on it gleamed ominously against the little light in that place.

And it began glowing, a glow that appeared to suck the light towards it. Soon enough, a shadowy smog oozed from its mouth, enveloping Edwin. The baron could feel the umbral energies being absorbed by his muscles, empowering him. [b][Action 1][/b]

Next, he thrusted his lance against the doppelgänger, the three-pronged tips searching the underside of her jaw. In tandem, the shadows began forming at his feet: they expanded and expanded, unmistakable sizzling followed them. [b][Action 2/3][/b]
