Fully consumed by corruption, mad beyond redemption, the ravings of the mad prophet made it clear that Aiv’s words would not bring any sort of reverence or tranquility after all, while his companions appeared unable to comprehend the reason behind words. The halberd-wielder, it appeared, was already immersed in the shirking of her duty as one of Nera’s chosen, more inclined to run from the first challenge than to face it, while the woman with the whip-sword seemed to be so intent on falling into reckless eagerness once more, forgetting her own advice and swinging wide in a passageway that was much too narrow.

Naturally, the snakeblade lodged itself into the wall, and, valorously, the yet nameless one went out of his way to free it before one of Nera’s fallen could grasp it, and, expectedly, the red-haired lady still maintained her confident façade, even as the wolf-bolt of another saved her once again, this time from the onslaught of the repurposed halves of the monster she had previously cleaved.

Made him smile, almost.

“Try thrusts, Isabelle,” Aiv said, hefting the towering mass onto his right shoulder, “Harder to hit a wall that way…but you’ll probably end up doing that regardless.”

That was all jest he could afford now, as the cacophony of the ghouls’ approach reached its climax, the metal screeches sounding even as clouds of dust kicked up from that destructive bolt, the promise of ascension from the lantern-bearers nullifying the fear of death. Ah, yes, this was the situation he lived for. These were the monstrosities he fought for. This was his cradle, his deathbed. The fear and excitement, the anticipation and the dread, everything mixing together! His flesh-strength expanded, his mind’s eye opened, his ephemeral past sank while his hyperrealistic present grew before him.

Ah, this was so nostalgic.

Ah, this was so novel.

“▃▃▅▅▃▃——!”

An unnatural war cry poured out as naturally as breathing. The anchor-wielder’s advice was sound. No matter where they poured out from, the ghouls only had one entrance point, one that Aiv positioned himself at. As they emerged from the dust clouds, weaponized limbs swinging wildly, thoughtlessly, fearlessly, the white-robed man grit his teeth and swung in response, horizontally, aiming to smash all the latest arrivals in a single strike while they were still grouped up from emerging out of the entranceway.

If it carnage was the path they were to walk, then he would embrace it fully.
>long ranged kick

I mean, anyone can just cut off their foot and throw it.

Also, so we're waiting on Aristo before the next round begins?
Yeah, was just curious, cause it sounded more like the characters didn't want to encounter them at all, despite the whole 'yo, I want you to kill em ded' directive.
Wait, to confirm...

"For those who seek comfort in dreams, are souls truly forlorn. In my absence, I sense it, many of them still loom down below. They wait for me, thinking that I will return to take away their pains. For a time, I granted their pitiful wish... But there is nothing I can do now. How much, I wish otherwise, there is no reasoning with what remains. The blight has overtaken their hearts, a plague that even the Gods cannot heal.”

She then glances with over, almost teary eyed. “Please, release them. Free them of their suffering. Absorb their sorrow, and also that which haunts this world. This is the first step in your destiny."


Did everyone forget this part of the mission? Or is the association between 'individuals who know of the Goddess and who exist within the ruins' and 'the individuals described within the Goddess's directive' not as clear as I thought?
Oho, putting in that Extra Effort already, Rune? XD
>breathing is an action
>GG, round is over

Perhaps a definition of what constitutes as an action would be necessary now. Like, is observing an action? Meaning that if one were to observe, they wouldn't be able to share their observations the next turn, as talking is a separate action? Something like that's probably fairly important in regards to Zombs' character and all.
Hm, so would you say that Dwyn's action was to 'hide' and Aiv's action was to 'speak'? Or can we still go do shenanigans?
Just waiting for when their murderous desires turn into reality.

For the time being though, Aiv would probably enjoy booting Isabelle into that murky pool.
Well, if things go well, there won't even be a fight.
Mm, can't wait to see Captain Dwyn: Civil War, coming 2018.
