[IC] HCL 2: Twisted tinkers' triumph

"i'm appalled to hear such slander coming from such obvious knights of such illuminant orders, even should they not be my own. The order of Alana has stolen nothing in it's entire history since founding. This particular maiden appears to have donated more than anticipated in a pious zeal and seems to regret the descision, however, we cannot simply hand over donations as of current due to the state of the order and the crusades which must be supplied. Surely knights of holy orders, such as yourselves, understand these things?" the knight replies with a friendly smile, his arms outstretched in a gesture similar to a 'well, what is it?'.

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
"Hmm. I see....But, little do you know, I know that "maiden" you are referring too, and I know the person who you took that cow from. First off, the one you took the cow from wouldn't donate anything to people like you, even if you tried to force him. Second off, my friend Angel here doesn't get into...how did he put it? Pious zeal? Yea. So, either start telling the truth...because I don't overly care for being lied to, especially by someone claiming to worship the sun." Solaire says, before Armored Solaire sighs. "I guess diplomacy is going to going to fail, isn't it?" He asks. Solaire simply grins a little. "Unless your fellow tin can starts speaking the truth, afraid so."

@supertinyking@Tyki@Angel
A beam of light shoots down from above and all present are humbled by the glory of the angel that has appeared.

"Did somebody call for... Dipolomacy?!"

Eclipse, armor shining, face beaming with joy and pride walks up and raises a hand. "I offer my services in the name of the Inherator, in the name of JUSTICE!" he stands tall with one hand on his hip smiling at everyone.

The blow connects, causing the Unversed to take an immense amount of damage, it roaring as a result. However, it's not quite dead yet, it simply on its knees, trying to pick itself back up again.

"This one's for you, Chrom...on my mark, Ven!" The tactician waits for a brief moment, waiting for just the right moment to strike. This chosen moment is when the creature makes its attempt to stand, but ends up stumbling. This is when Michael breaks into a run, Ventus quickly following suit, engulfing the Unversed in a column of light. Michael then follows up by wrapping shadows around the column, trapping the Unversed. "This is it. Twilight Bomb!" The combination of these two elements causes an explosive reaction, obliterating their opponent. Since this attack can harm any enemy of the user's choice, you weren't harmed at all.

"You've definitely improved since we've last met, Michael. Your skill as a tactician never ceases to amaze me." Ventus remarks, grinning from this taste of victory. For him, it had been a while since the two of them had cooperated on an attack like that. It was rather refreshing.

[supertinyking]

@ShadowVentus
"Damn, that was awesome!" I say, grinning.
"Impressive, but awe inspiring? I've seen better..." Leeroy? says. He looks at Micheal with a bit of a grin, though. "So, a fellow warlock? Manipulating the dark to fulfill your own agenda? Why, I must say, I'm almost envious at the level of control you have....almost." He chuckles, before looking at Ventus, his face going from a devious grin, to a disgusted grimace. "You, however...a light mage. Blegh. Pathetic..." He says, before looking at me. "You, you stab things...you're not much." He says, brushing me off as some simpleton.
"....Can I kick this guy's ass yet?" I just generally ask, hoping someone would say yes.

[Wraithblade6]

Eclipse puts his hands on his hips and looks around amid the silence awkwardly. "Ah... So yes... It all seems to be resolved now hm?"

[ShadowVentus]

@supertinyking
Michael smirks at your remark, looking at you from the corner of his eye. "Your funeral." He responds before turning back to look at this past version of Leeroy. "Don't underestimate our strength. Light and dark have their fair share of pros and cons. They're essentially two sides of the same coin. Don't you agree, Ven?"

Ventus isn't fazed by Leeroy's distaste in the light. He knows that when in the right hands, it can be very powerful. "I can say for certain that what you say is true, Michael. However, I'm not just some "light mage". That just happens to be one of the many forms of magic I have up my sleeve." He remarks, brimming with confidence over how far he has come over the years.

@Wraithblade6
"It appears to be that the fellow in the fort over there took a cow from one of our friends....so, we're here to get it back." Armored Solaire says, before walking over. "Pardon me sir, but we're intrested in buying one of your cattle!" He tries to call out, over the walls.
His unarmored counter part, sighs, and looks at Eclipse, a lot of tire shown on his face. "How've you been, since our last meeting when you were donating blood?" Solaire asks, sorta sadly.

[supertinyking]

@ShadowVentus
Leeroy? chuckles. "Ahh, so just a mage...and try it, fool ,if you wish to have your friends watch your flesh melt from your bone, and your soul scream in agony until I give you the release of non-existance..." Leeroy says, the first bit to Ven, and the second bit to me. I just sigh, before looking at the two dark magic users. "Your dark magic types, so dramatic, and so broody...no offence Micheal, and all the offence to you, masked dick." I say, with a bit of a grin.
Leeroy growls, preparing a spell of some sort in his hands. "I'll make you beg for death, dog..." He growls, not overly happy.

[ShadowVentus]

@supertinyking

Michael's right pupil becomes a red dragon eye as he uses the bone hand from earlier to shield you, a dark aura emanating from him. "Enough. If either of you even think about making a move, I will break every bone in your body." He says, glaring at the both of them. He seems to still be in full control of his actions, so this is simply him being annoyed.

Ventus is still thrown off by the sudden draconic skeleton that is before him. "His abilities really have changed over all this time...I wonder if he really has tamed that dragon or not..." He thinks to himself. "I suppose we should attempt to clarify something. Leeroy, just who are you? What I mean is, just what can you do and what was happening to you before you made your way here?" Ven inquires.

[supertinyking]

@ShadowVentus
"......Kiljoy." I say to Micheal, and Leeroy grins evilly.


"I am able to rend the mortal soul asunder, steal the life essance out from the very eyes of men, and use it to heal myself, or others...or, when I feel truly devilish, create monsters....." Leeroy chuckles, his laugh reeking of Disney villain material. "Also, I was taking over a monster den." He adds, as if it wasn't much.
I sigh, and sorta crack my jaw by moving it slightly. I do this..over...and over....and over...and over, as if oblivious to the fact it would get annoying rather quickly.

"ah, a fellow brother of the sun. At least one following the illuminated paths outside my own are capable of more than slander and conjecture. you've arrived just in time to find these three attempting to extort dontations from the faithful from our sisters and brothers of the cloth" the man says evenly with a friendly smile as his gaze falls on eclipse, light radiating off of him naturally which obviously showed an alignment to a god/goddess of light, the sun emblazoned upon his armor's sircoat denoting a similar god/goddess to eclipse's own

@kishin asura
((Due to ven sorta vanishing, I'll try to get you into a different story.))
As I fight the creature, a portal opens behind you, and a gust of chilled wind nips at the back of your neck, it obviously leading somewhere cold.

@supertinyking

((Incredibly late reply))

"The hell?" I mutter as I step through the portal

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
You find yourself on an icy planet, some creatures, that look like human, walking about in little more than pants, and some with light shirts. To you, you'd feel as if you'd been dropped in liquid nitrogen. These creatures have frost for hair, and their eyes are a crystal blue.

[Wraithblade6]

@Tyki

"Ah, I see." Eclipse listened to what the obviously good-aligned being said. "And what do you have to say to this, hm?" he looked over at the other two, non-accusingly, giving them a chance to explain. "Surely a fine templar of justice and worshiper of the sun, such as Solaire would not be guilty of such a crime."

[supertinyking]

@Wraithblade6
Armored Solaire lets out a sigh. "As far as I know, a being named Guldo, a friend of the empire, had a friend cow....and someone here just showed up, and yanked the thing saying it was a...donation. Angel here is trying to get it back, as are we, because, honestly, I needed a break from the intensity of the things happening back at home. My unarmored counterpart just wanted to go visit a new place. Now, this fellow is playing up his holy persona, and acting like we're slandering him. I'm just trying to buy the damn cow." Armored Solaire says, unhappy.

[Wraithblade6]

Eclipse looks back to the someone. "How was this donation made?"

[Tyki]

@Wraithblade6@supertinyking

"if you had intended upon purchasing the cow then things would have been a seperate tale all together. While we do not give away donations unless in times of excess, we do sell them to those in need. Come, you two level headed brothers of the clothe may follow me inside" the man says with a friendly smile, leading the armored solaire and eclipse inside the fort, cattle of various forms grazing on the grass inside and being cared for by what look to be initiates, the rather blocky and angular features of a minecraftian cow being spottable in the background with a team of people being issued to milk her and haul endless lines of buckets to a tiny tent that doesn't look like it should house that much of anything at all. "what is going on here initiate mickael?" the man asks curiously, the initiate in black robes bowing his head to the palidan as he says "it's the cow, sir, she's not running out of milk."

"strange... well, gentlemen, it would appear as though this one is not for sale currently." the man replies evenly as he turns back to face the two men that had followed him.

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
Solaire sighs. "...If I gave you two cows like that one, able to make more milk than you could ever truly use, can I have that one?" Solaire asks, hoping this would work.

[Wraithblade6]

@supertinyking

Eclipse nods. "A fair trade, to be sure. What sayest thou?"
