King of Crabs

[17:49] That poor beast wasn't made to fight someone as violent and ruthless as Scarlett, that much was obvious. She tore it apart like she was Tea on a quest for the greatest sea dish of all time. Impressive, if not majestic. Kofe closely followed every motion that came from the ninja, keeping both eyes on target until the beast began backing off.

Wait.
It was backing off!

No, no, no! Kofe wasn't going to just let her have fun with that. The sands that rose and the commotion that came from it all? He could see through it. He was far enough from the action.

A rhythm sparked up within him, a pursuit was engaged in hopes he'd reach the beast in time for his fun to be had, too!

[17:49] Truth be told this crab was about done with fire magi.

What's more terrifying to a crab than its boiling end? Nothing. They care little for what other fish may feel or otherwise - All the Kang was here to do was to get its people free from the oppressive hands of man. Thus with swinging claw, tides, and sand alone he'd march forward with his army.

Sand attempts to hold Scarlett down, only to fail as the ninja quite literally began rushing across the water. What were humans made of these days!? With a screech of defiance he'd reel his claw back...

Just to be hit by the massive, Nyeshk blade she carried in hand. Forced to eat dirt the Kang Krab staggers, one beady eye blinking after the other as it tried to gain its senses back...

This was no place to fight.

It's upon the smokescreen that he'd attempt to rush away. This beast couldn't risk more loss here... There were far more pressing matters to attend to - Beaches to harass to free its people.

Yet Kofe approaches, and a battle may happen once more...

[17:53] {Won Dangerous RPB against The Krab Kang}
[18:02] A performance for the ages, that's what Kofe would give. Where Scarlett had brutally assaulted its shell, Kofe wasn't letting it run away quite that swiftly. He caught up to the beast, cutting off its path and sending forth a devastating sound wave that'd send it flying backwards. Followed by another.

Ephemeral apparitions ran forth and pelted the beast further backwards as Kofe himself took the battle more slowly, walking forth step by step with his lute in hand. Humiliating, but a show for the stars above to watch. He needed to improve his performance, to make it good enough for Iberl to respect him, to honor him with its light.

And Iberl was a bitch.

"Our land-bound mates can till their fields, or fight behind their masters' shields. But a seaman's free to sing and play, over the seas and far away. Here lays a crab like no other, without a pair— without brothers. Come closer, O lord of the sea, for I've got business with none other than ye."

A performance to observe, one that pulled from the carb's lonely nature and the very area they were in. So, so close to the fields of Messaris, yet far from Osrona in a twist of fate. A surge of mana seemed to fill young Kofe as he tugged at the bond he'd made years ago with the house of firsts.

This would be a first. A strum of his lute, and a grant from the cosmos above. It enticed the beast to step closer, only to slice at its claws with voracious soundwaves.

Fortissimo!

[18:11] What the fuck.

Sound magic was a new thing to the Krab Kang and by his own crown did he hate it! Thrashing the sand and waves about the mainland of Esshar the Kang fought pincer and vice for his claim. His people had to be freed, and by the Gods was he not sitting idly to let the land dwellers have their way.

Armies of illusion and crustaceans alike clash against one another. This was a battleground - One won by proper strategy as opposed to brute force. A shame, however, that he wasn't exactly all too smart. All the creature knew was to thrash his opponent about with the strength of the tides they'd ruled over.

As the krusty ruler of the sea draws closer and closer from the tune alone... Those beady, soulless eyes seem to soften a bit. Perhaps they'd misjudged the land dwellers? The cycle of life did happen upon shore and sea alike--

Well, that was until the soundwaves quite literally cut into its claws. With an ear-crushing shriek did the king roar, its claw finally crashing to the ground with a mighty THUNK!.. Only to fall shortly after it.

Yet its servants are no fools, no, most had begun to retreat the moment their Kang had shown cracks in their shell. Hel, some even began to eat away at the exposed meat before returning to the depths... The Kang Krab's story had ended, and sadly?

It didn't favor the sea kingdom's wishes.
