Since Akoni decided to try and light the area behind Sevrin, well... Development that concerns all of you, or foreshadowing rather. You guys are almost to the finale yourselves.

@EnterTheHero@Kafka Komedy@Lugubrious@liferusher@ProPro

Also it looks like Vigrid might be the first to wrap up by the looks of it, and things are heating up in the forest. I'll look to awarding points pretty soon.

FT | The Sky and The Earth

I will post... Later. I was mostly waiting to see what else was happening at the Harpy guild hall but no one seems to be doing much of anything.

<Snipped quote by Eklispe>

Damn. Sorry to hear that man. Could I transfer you? JCL (@Suku, @herecomesthesnow.@sho minazuki) are at least kind of active.

EDIT: The 'kind of active' was a joke, JCL. You have my gratitude for your continued presence.

@Lugubrious

I always lurk overhead out of sight.

So we're getting a new team member?

Sigurd

Rauru, Nuun Highlands

A note, he had hoped to examine the body for belongings, whether or not this messenger had already reached his destination or not would give him many answers, but it seems he must wait for now. There was a note on the dead body that the captain had found it seems, and he handed it to him to examine. Barely legible, the note was old, a bit of blood from the slit throat he would guess.

We know you are weak. It's too late to run to the King now.

We are stronger than ever, and we will soon storm your gates.

It's too late to prepare yourselves. Some of us are already inside.

The captain expressed his thoughts, he thought the attack was a bluff... Sigurd though was most worried about the first line. "It's too late to run to the King now", the note presented danger to the royalty. Next was the man on the inside they claimed to have, and that they will storm his gates...

"I see, however if the last line is true, then the attack they claim may not be a bluff at all. What worries me most is the first line about our king. They claim he too is in danger... Meaning... Their man "inside" is possibly at the royal palace...", he explained his thought process to the captain, but no sooner did a young lady come by. He glanced in the corner of his eye and he recognized it, the garb of a witch, he had known of a young witch wandering the land, that must be her.

"And what about us who just arrived, huh? We don't have a home to return to ya know. Maybe ya could do your job and show me to the Inn, huh?"

"Well, speaking of capable soldiers, I have just the man to help you out!" he responded, cheerfully gesturing towards Sigurd. "This is my finest man, Sigurd. He loves meeting visitors and I assure you he would be happy to shepherd a nice young woman like yourself to the inn. I believe he was just heading there himself. Don't be shy, Sigurd!"

And just like that he was turned over to babysitting. He sighed, as this was a matter of utmost importance. In fact he just pointed out that their king could be in grave danger as they speak, but still, tending to the people was also a duty of the knights.

"Very well then...", he turned the note over to the Captain as he went to snatch it, Sigurd knew his place and shot a glance back before turning to the duty he was just assigned. It was definitely frustrating dealing with older and senior knights, he was so young, but he was given the position of a free agent. He was chosen for his seniority or experience, but sharp intellect. Normally scholars in the kingdom could not fight, as such the king saw Sigurd as a rare asset. A knight who could do the work of a scholar as well, but even then, there was pride in many knights, especially those older.

"Now then ma'am, I will show you to the Inn. You may find the location pleasing, as it is rather close to a library and market", he added, walking towards her and then leading her in the direction of the Inn. It was likely she was the mischievous short... He may have to keep his wits about him around her, likely she knew where the Inn was already. She looked the travelling sort, and Rauru was a popular place to pass through.

Oh you did. I'll fix that up later though, considering it's pretty late over here.

Persona - The True Self

In any case PM me on the kidnapping, and maybe go over your dungeon one last time.

Persona - The True Self

To be fair I did offer a compromise that you refused.

And sure, PM me about your plans and we'll discuss.

Avoiding eye contact is the key to fighting her. If you don't fight in her line of sight, you can avoid it. She's intended to be strong enough to fight two people at once though, so it's whoever can last longest before Gideon may or may not go down. Unless you're really bloody good.

Vigrid

@Lmpkio@kapuchu@Lazo@I-Am-X

As soon as Fenn and the Allegiance crashed into the building, the Champion had already surrounded the pair, now down to just Lily. His Light Angels began a perfect coordinated attack from multiple angles, she would be hard pressed to avoid them due to their speed, timing, and direction. They were not this fast before, it seems a good commander would make all the difference when it came to these angels. With no room for a counter-attack amidst the followed-up assaults, each angel only going in for one strike before flying away quickly, only for one of it's colleagues to attack from another angle, the Champion would fly high above Lily, and speed in a sharp dive towards her with blade at the ready. The Champion was not messing around, he knew his duty, and he intended to fulfil it. Fenn's fight with the Allegiance would buy the Champion some time to fight Lily before he would start to have to worry about two opponents. As the Champion came down upon Lily, she could see that the Light Angels moved to his command, but they were also covering his blind spots... This may prove difficult. Should she focus their commander? Or cut down the men who would defend him?

It seems everyone has chosen their opponents, the half demon on the other side and the machine will take the half-demon general of Mundus, and Wrath would choose to buy time for them to beat him, but alone, how much time can he buy? The Gorgon is a snake-like demon, much like her mother Echidna, mother of beasts, in legends the Gorgon is a type of snake witch monster, with the same abilities of a Medusa in almost every way, including their petryifying gaze. As Wrath attempted to crash the pommel of his blade into her, she twirled her small dagger, unbalancing his pose for the next part of his Crushing Slash, but it seems he expected this much, but he did not expect the rest. In his staggered pose, he was petrified, he noticed it, that piercing gaze that followed up her parry.

"My, you're only a little stunned, was it my good looks? Usually...", for the few moments, she had the freedom to step closer and cup the Nephilim's chin.

"Everyone turns to stone, with a terrified glare", as soon as she finished speaking, made rapid backflips as the stun wore off on him. That was a petrifying glare... Had he human physiologies, he would have suffered a lot more than just being frozen in place for a moment.

It was clear to Wrath now, she was powerful, even though she was inexperienced as a demon, her powers were the real deal, and not to be taken lightly, her twin snakes gather around her again, it seems he may have to deal with more than just her abilities.

As Akoni peered into the shell beyond Sevrin, he would immediately be fed back an image of darkness, corruption... Something defiled, it was strange, he felt like he just peered into the image of something disgusting, the image of something divine corrupted beyond measure. It was nauseating as he was forced to his knees. One thing was clear, as he would recompose himself... This was not the image of a pure demon.

"Oooh I felt that one. Looks like you did too", Sevrin chuckled a little bit as he took a few steps towards the centre of the walkway, between the sole bookshelves they could see here.

"Also while you're looking for exorcism spells, probably bring an old priest and little boy with you, I swear it will help hehehaha...", he seemed to be enjoying himself.

"Still, this is the first time anyone's asked for my name in a millennia, a little refreshing I must say, but I'm afraid I'll keep you all in suspense. After all, you people are into surprises right? Oh don't lie to me, I saw how jubilant you all were when I destroyed that seal, it was hilarious! Really lifts the heart when you make other people's lives a whole lot more interesting, really melts my ice cold heart, am I right? Hehahahaha...", he was taunting them, and revelling in it.

As he spoke, the light spell that Akoni cast fly behind him, and split... There was nothing but darkness behind him, the light could not even reach the ground, it was like the area behind him was being eaten by some kind of force.

"Also I did warn you... You really don't want to get the librarian mad...", the party felt their breath go short for one moment, like the darkness behind Sevrin had claimed them... This 'librarian' he mentioned... No longer looked like a taunting muse...

Sigurd

Rauru, Nuun Highlands

Dawn broke over the village of Rauru as he poured over his notes from the last few weeks. He was passing through and on his way to Lynna City to report his findings for the incidents in the last few days. Thefts and vandalism by bandits on horseback was as much as he'd found, but it was strange to him that these bandits would always slip away so quickly, like phantoms. Still, he had predicted another such incident in Raura within the last two or so days, but none came, which struck him as strange, he was on their trail after Symmetry Village not too far from here. There was a pattern to the events, plus consistency, that was all he found so far, he wasn't able to tail them either as his horse could not handle the night so well. Perhaps he should find a way to jack one of theirs to tail them...? In any case he was roused from his lodgings by the town guard as an announcement was made... Something had happened.

Donning his armor and helm with sword strapped to his back, he headed off towards the town square, where the ruckus seemed to be coming from. Upon arrival he beheld a strange scene, a knight, blackened and charred laid on the ground, with a horse that as he walked to scene was being calmed down, now being walked away...

This struck him as strange... Death, rather than theft... Great, either this was another thing he had to worry about, a murderer on the loose, or a crafty dangerous monster, or the bandits he's been chasing decided to up their game... In any case... He approached the good Captain and inquired to the events.

"Hmmmm I see... So he was found dead on arrival this morning. Sizeable burns, and a slit throat... A strange combination if ever I've seen one", he began.

"I'd like to request to examine his body and his horse, as what it's carrying, or not carrying, may give me some insight into what happened... This may be related to my investigation", he requested.
