Holy 10

23:08] {NARRATION} "So this is where you've been hiding it... The key to my perfection."
[23:09] Gin looked around, trying to get a grasp on the situation. Guard duty was over.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:09] Sophie cos Duran says, "Their leader finally bares its fangs."
[23:09] Yvel Endore says, "This will be a tough one...I might have to use judgement again...if I can manage it.."
[23:09] {NARRATION} Another wave begins to emergy, it seems the largest yet--- And one very large being with them.
[23:20] {NARRATION} Another wave emerges from the walls, and with them Kor'Tos, a massive Yokai in the midsst of its development to Khaor-- somewhere between a dark Oni and Addremelch. The color of its skin and the way that skin reflected light made it seem like the beast did not belong in this world.

The Fairy Guardian is put on edge.
[23:22] Gin watched on as wave upon waves of demons came flying into the area. He took his mythril blade in hand, and pointed it at the demons. He allowed lightning to flow throughout his body, and then engulf his body like armor. Wearing the lightning armor, beside the two knights. Pointing his blade at them, he allowed his lightning energy to prepare itself to attack whomever came closest to the beastkin.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:23] Sophie notices the disturbance in the Fairy Guardian. There was a history perhaps, or perhaps not.

"Move back to safety. Yvel, Gin and I will take care of them all, including this nightmare of a beast." Sophie declares, speaking confidently, as her eyes draw over the wave of oncoming demons, particularly noting Kor'Tos.

Sophie could identify a Kaor from the books. The archives of the Duran Household. This one is not quite there yet, but she also understood well that it was close, very close, which meant it'd contain an enormous amount of power.

If it were a full kaor with numbers like this, then it'd be hopeless. Yet regardless, with the full force of her blade, she'd stand ready to fight.

To eradicate evil. This, is what Sophie was made for.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:25] Yvel would be put on high alert, His skin would crawl and his body would feel like it was being violated by the enormous waves of occultic magic that spewed towards them It was as if the mana it self wanted to destoy them.

And the sinister presence only continued when they laid eyes on Kor'Tos, The fae guardian was immediately sent on edge they had been fighting along side Sophie and Yvel while Gin headed up the rear, but as Gin rejoined them the Fae guardian seemed all the more keen to meet its foe in combat.

"This...I've never felt such darkness...Not since..." Yvel had only felt one so deep and depraved and even they would have a shred of humanity compared to this abomination, A demon evolved higher than most others.

Yvel's body began to glow the clouds around him swirled as the drew even stronger. As Sophie makes her declaration But Yvel held fast. "Don't be foolish, We're fighting that thing together. Lets take care of the smaller ones first!" Yvel would gather the storm within his black cloud he was prepared to make a move once again.
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:26] Sophie cos Duran says, "I meant that toward our fairy friend."
[23:26] Sophie cos Duran says, "I'm not so foolish, Yvel."
[23:26] Yvel Endore exclaims, "Ah then same except to the fairy!"
[23:26] Kor'Tos says, "Look at these juicy little mana conduits..."
[23:27] Kor'Tos says, "I'll enjoy making meals of each of you."
[23:27] Gin Fujiwara says, "Hrngh."
[23:27] Kor'Tos says, "Feed my evolution... So that I may guide this world to its destiny."
[23:27] Yvel Endore says, "There will be no destiny on this world beyond your demise."
[23:27] Dungeon Master Kaleido-no-scope: it was never 40
[23:27] {NARRATION} The Guardian takes off into the air and charges at Kor'Tos. The fairy unleashes a massive burst of mana that Kor'tos whisks away with a swat of its hand.
[23:27] Dungeon Master Kaleido-no-scope: at least, it wasn't for wind but i grabbed wind day one and it was only 20
[23:28] Yvel Endore says, "Ng.h...just how powerful is that monster..."
[23:28] Sophie widens her eyes the moment the fairy lunges into action. The burst of mana prompted action from her, and she immediately lunges in upon the gathered horde! The Gentle Blade flaring brilliantly!
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:29] Gin Fujiwara says, ". . ."
[23:29] Yvel clutches his staff tighter as he watches the clouds around him growing larger in anticipation to face the threat.
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:30] Kor'Tos says, "No fairy, your time is over."
[23:30] Kor'Tos says, "I will be taking your treasures... And feeding on your entire tribe."
[23:30] Gin Fujiwara says, "Not while we're here."
[23:30] Yvel Endore exclaims, "No!"
[23:30] Yvel Endore exclaims, "I won't won't let you harm a single one!"
[23:32] {NARRATION} The Guardian races down, engaging Kor'Tos directly in combat. Dazzling lights in varying forms, erratic to smooth and serence to straight and forceful are cast, only to be met with powerful blows and bombardments of darkness. The battle between the two is fierce, and it becomes increasingly clear that the Guardian can spare no effort on the party of the other demons!


The party has a choice to make, and may act whenever they're ready!
[23:33] {NARRATION} The party is successful in staving off the eyokai threat... But the guardian?!
[23:35] Kor'tos brings his weapon around, slashing into the fairy and knocking them down to the ground. The fairy bounces several times and lands near the others, mana and light literally pouring off of them like shattered glass.
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:36] {NARRATION} The Guardian musters a tri-focused beam and fires it at Kor'Tos, unleashing all the power it can to hold the demon back. The Demon puts up a guard and is being pushed back.
[23:36] Dungeon Master Kaleido-no-scope: ty
[23:39] Gin fought alongside everyone, taking down wave after wave of demons. He pierced through them, alongside with the holy magic. The male took in deep breathes, he inhaled, then exhaled. It was a hard fought battle, but victory seemed to be theres. When he turned around to look towards the Guardian whom was engaged with battle against the Kor'Tos however . . .

It seemed to be struggling a bit against it. Sword in hand, he bent his knees and locked eyes with the beasts figure. He simply awaited for Yvel and Sophie to give the order.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:41] Yvel and the others finished sweeping up the Demons, the battle with the Guardian and the Kaor was epic, The waves of magic coming down was enough to shatter the entire cavern if it kept up like this. Yet Yvel pressed on.

It wasn't until the guardian was smashed into the ground did Yvel start paying more attention to the battle, Each side forcing more and more magic against one another. Yvel paying close attention on how the holy fae fought using so many more magics than Yvel thought was possible to learn.

But the fae were an advanced race, They could grasp the very fabric of mana and expel it as their will they were unlike humans in that regard and such gentle creatures fought against such expanding darkness.

But there was no openings for Yvel to intervene. He looked and struggled but there didn't seem to be any opportunities. Yvel would look to his allies knowing they felt the same way. How would they fell such over whelming darkness? Yvel mustered the courage and once more he shouted to the fae.

"I said I would help you didn't I! Please, Allow me to show you just what I mean. I won't let you die here...I'll fight until my last breath is exhausted!" Yvel would exclaimed as he hopped onto one of his clouds floating towards the fairy and the Kaor. It might have been a risky move but Yvel was prepared to battle none the less.

Had his comrades been brave enough they could have joined him.
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:50] Sophie cuts through her last demon, before she can finally focus upon the kaor. The hard blow against the Guardian almost shocks Sophie, but in a sudden counter, he surges with power, striking back.

"We'll stop him from here, do not push yourself anymore. Observe."

Sophie brandishes her sword of Light, ready to lunge into combat with everything she had against the growing demon.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:51] {NARRATION} The Guardian drops their beam, and looks at the party with a weakened disposition.
[23:53] Dungeon Master Kaleido-no-scope: alright event over me log
[23:53] Kor'Tos lowers his guard, withstanding the Guardian's attack.
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:53] Kor'Tos says, "I'll devour you all."
[23:53] Gin Fujiwara says, ". . ."
[23:53] Kor'Tos says, "Every last drop of mana."
[23:53] Sophie cos Duran says, "No. You will be nothing but a pile of ash in the wind when I am finished with you."
[23:58] Kor'Tos says, "Foolish Humans."
[23:58] Kor'Tos says, "You do not have the power to stand up to the receiver of this world."
[23:58] Yvel Endore exclaims, "I WILL DEFEAT YOU !!!"
[23:58] Gin Fujiwara says, ". . ."
[23:58] Kor'Tos says, "Your foolish appeal to the fae is pathetic."
[23:59] Kor'Tos says, "You cling so desperately to hope"
[23:59] Sophie found herself gritting to push forth. This enemy truly is a powerful one.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:59] Kor'Tos says, "To a chance at power"
[23:59] Kor'Tos asks, "And where does it lead you?"
[23:59] Kor'Tos exclaims, "To me!"
[23:59] Kor'Tos exclaims, "Your doom!!!"
[23:59] * You have been awarded 15 Roleplay Points! *
[00:04] Kor'Tos says, "Struggle against fate all youd like."
[00:04] Kor'Tos says, "Defeating me is impossible."
[00:06] Gin clenched his fist. He was taken down not once, but twice in a row by this demon. He looked straight ahead and it was becoming more and more apparent, this demon was outher wordly. It was powerful beyond belief, and the three of them together didn't even manage to bring the beast down to its knees. A frown formed on his lips.

"If we hadn't left our armor." He grumbled to himself, coming to the realization that they may be defeated here. The beast may just be to strong for the three of them to take down. Blood started to trinkle from the beastkins mouth. Wiping it with his hand, he held onto his blade. "I won't give up."
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:11] Yvel and the others struggled, their abilities flashing through out the skies and below the grounds Yet Yvel couldn't dent the creatures massive power. It wasn't even equal. Another denizen of darkness. that would spill evil onto this world....Yvel was weakened his body already sore form the battles he fought all throughout the day in the caverns and now this?

This monster was an impossible wall that he could not defeat. Yvel held onto hope, Even if it was a flicker, Even if it was just a spark of hope he called out to those who he knew were watching. "PLEASE! I know you all are watching. Fae...I beg you...I am just a child...compared to you all, The knowledge you hold is far beyond my understanding so I implore you!"

Yvel would extend his hands forwards standing back up to the ground albeit it struggling to. "I already have had faith in you, Its what lead me here! Now please...put your faith in me. And I will become the Hero that bringslight even in the darkest of places! I will be a champion not only for the Mortals. But to the fae and to the lifestream. Please show me how..." The Demon would approach their power only growing more and more fearsome.

Yet Yvel's resolve and his faith that the fae people would aid him in this battle did not wane. "Please, Help me protect 'Our home!'" This was the exorcists final please, He'd hoped that those fae, The guardian and the one they met our front included would answer him. But even if they did not.

He'd stand bulwarked and prepared for the clash against light and darkness. Something he'd been training to defeat all of his life as a Knight."Gin, Sophie, Keep fighting.....and if we fall here...we fall as Knights who protected the Light!" He'd claim his magic then thrusting forth towards the beast once more.
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:12] Sophie grips her blade tightly. She could feel the wear upon her body, the occult steadily threatening to overwhelm her. To muse over it might turn out to be a compliment to Kor'Tos, so instead, regardless of how they're pushed back, Sophie holds on, her body numbed by the clashes of weapons and the continuous release of power.

The side of Silver Durendal is faced through her comrades. In the light of her blades inscription-

'Prevail against the odds, Light found within the dark.'

Sophie huffs out a little laugh, thinking about those words.
"You're a big, overconfident pest." Sophie hisses out, struggling to catch her breath.

Sight of victory seemed almost hopeless, but in such odds, Sophie simply pushed. To resign herself meant to abandon. To abandon the fairy's who's grounds they intruded upon. To let this nightmare of a monster run free in its rampage.

It meant that she'd abandon the very will her sword embodied.
"A big, overconfident pest, hungry for power that he'll -never- have."

Sophie, despite it all, was ready to keep fighting, even if it might come at the expense of her own flesh and blood. One does not prevail if they're not ready to sacrifice.

"You don't have to ask that of me, Yvel. I already made my decision."
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:14] This blade was made to kill creatures like you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDnENTDuAiI
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:14] The hulking Kor'Tos marches forward, an indomitable beast that deflects the storming holy might of its adversaries with its bare skin.

"Such desperate, trivial, lost creatures."

It brings its massive blade into the air, then brings it down in a massive cleave,

"You have already lost."
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:22] Kor'Tos says, "You have some fight."
[00:22] Kor'Tos says, "But it makes no difference."
[00:22] Kor'Tos says, "Your fate remains the same."
[00:23] Yvel Endore exclaims, "I'll show the fae....just how we are worthy!"
[00:32] {NARRATION} The party desperaely fights against the inevitable power of Kor'Tos who uses a massive limbs of pure dark energy to bat them around and into the surrounding walls.
[00:37] Gin fought with everything he had. Every ounce of spirit, every ounce of strength, he brought it all forward . . . But in the end, he stood no chance against the beast, Kor'Tos. He found himself smashed into the wall, the massive limbs of pure dark energy smashed him into the wall. The beastkin found his body smashed into the wall, and before he knew it, he fall down onto the grass uncurious. His consciousness exited his body. He could push no further. Blood trickled from his mouth, and stained the ground beneath his unconscious body.

Was this the end? Was all of this for naught? Did they truly come so far just to fail today?

. . . maybe they should've just gone to the ball instead.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:42] This creature...

Powerful. Far too powerful. Sophie would relent, but neither would Kor'Tos. It was a battle of wills, the combined ones of Yvel, Sophie, and Gin, against this creature of titanic power.

Blow after blow, they couldn't crack its shield, eventually wearing themselves upon the best, before one after another, they're swatted away like measily pests.

Sophie barely manages to guard against the limb of black energy, but its force slammed through her, sending a brutal shock running through her as her body slams into a wall. Sophie gasps, before collapsing onto her hands and knees, her vision hazy, as the agony of her injuries seems to bear themselves down upon her.

Disbelief? No, this situation is very real, and very possible.
Sophie simply refuses, although her was beaten to the extent where it refused to react to her demand to push on. Even her holy energy seemed to struggle to maintain itself.

The Sword of Light? It was gone, leaving Silver Durendal, grasped desperately in her hands.

Sophie curses under her breath.
"We...can't...fail...dammit."

The sensation of failure began to bare down upon her more then any wound. Failing here meant that the demons had won, it meant that those she sought to protect, will fall to her failure. That their very actions had allowed these demons to invade this sanctuary. With each of her comrades down, and the Guardian having been worn down as he was.

The darkness steadily crept over Sophie, as with each pounding second, mending desperately tries to work her back into fighting condition, but fails.

"Y-Yvel…Gin." She could see her comrades, beaten beyond commission too.

Kor'Tos' inevitable power had won.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:43] Yvel poured every ounce of his strength into surviving the attacks of the demon yet its claws and its powers were beyond what he could imagine, Dreadful it was an impossibility to overcome, The very instance of why he aimed to unite with the fae of this land to become a stronger Champion against the forces of evil.

"The weakened the creature significantly but within its rage its claws dripped with occultic shadows and it tore and rip through them like nothing. Yvel switching from offensive to defense on the fly.

Yvel pushed and polished his lightning using holy barriers he'd protect his friends and the surroundings, He'd see Gin go down to a fatal strike, Unsure of how to retaliate Yvel conjured spears of Holy Magic to rain down towards the beast aiming to destroy it entirely

It was just a mere distraction to it. Yvel's attack was swatted away like flies only for the Demon to come back to engage upon him, Like blinding shadows he encouraged faster than he could imagine faster than Yvel could repel the attacks

He'd summon the rage and wrath of the heavens but none of it compared to the force and power of the Demon...yet another foe, Another who prevailed darkness over him. Yvel was furious his body broken and beaten he could do nothing against this threat.

He'd lie in the moist wetlands of the faes home, Unsure of how the results would end. He'd struggle to get up to at the very least face his attacker then he saw Sophie was tossed aside...He was alone and when he aimed to face the beast he charged Holy magic into his staff attempting to forgo its last bit of power with all of his magic left, Even magic he did not have if necessary...

But all attempts failed. The beam of light was a mere streak that the demon dodged before slashing Yvel with his claws."N-no...this...can't be.." He'd couldn't lose faith...but with nothing else approaching Yvel would have nothing else to rely upon..

He'd aim to look to his friends did he fail them? Did he truly lose to this monster? What else could they do...How could they fight against it something not fae nor man could conquer…"Sophie...Gin...I.." He'd begin to fade the darkness now no longer shielded from his mind.

within his own mind Yvel thought, If only he had the power of the fae...The very same Light of the Lifestream that shines with radiance of life. He wondered if he could dispel the evil that haunted their world but as things were now...would his life even continue beyond hthis point? He did not know.


(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:45] Kor'Tos says, "The despair of failure weighs heavily on your souls."
[00:46] Kor'Tos says, "But only for a moment."
[00:46] Kor'Tos opens his mouth slowly, and a grotesque stretching of his jaws commence. Its so unnatural, his skeletal structure did not support it, yet it were indeed happening!
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:47] {NARRATION} Lights appear amidst the trees to the north, one by one fairy light emerges from the thickness of the night.
[00:48] {NARRATION} "Now!!"

Dazzling lights race from the fairies amidst the grove, all blasting at Kor'Tos!
[00:48] Kor'Tos asks, "Mrmm?"
[00:49] Yvel Endore says, "...theres so many...lights..."
[00:49] Sophie cos Duran exclaims, "F-Fairies?!"
[00:49] {NARRATION} The Guardian Fae rises up,

"That's enough time...!"

As the fairies of the grove bombard Kor'Tos, the guardian reveals a triangular assortment of magic, pyramids stacked around each other that he throws into the air.

What follows is a blinding light...
[00:52] {NARRATION} The light fades away, fairy dust goes shimmering through the air, and the party awakens atop a mountain. Across from them appears a battered Kor'Tos who seems a bit worse for wear.
[00:54] Gin was still unconscious. His vision was hazy, and though he was knocked out, he could hear the sound of a "THATS ENOUGH TIME!" voice from somewhere in the background. A minute passed, and then two, and eventually Gin started to slowly wake back up.

"Huh...?" He asked himself, trying his hardest to regain his vision. It was all still blurry. Was he in heaven? ...or hell? He forced his hands to his eyes and started to rub his eyes, regaining more and more clean vision.

Eventually, what he saw before him was a beaten and defeated Kor'Tos who seemed to be on the verge of injury. Raising an eyebrow, which was painful in itself to do, but Gin just stared in disbelief. No words could be forced out.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:54] Yvel notices the spells that are being used, The fae's assault on the Kor'Tos comes at the opportune moment right when they would've been made the demons warm up snack.

Blast of rainbow colored light spewed all around them anguish filled Yvel's body but his soul felt warm and soothed. By the light almost as if it was affecting him in some peculiar way.

The fairy magic was incredible Even as they could match the strength of a fully formed Kaor, Yvel would take it in the sensation that follows he experiences the lights and sees them dancing and bursting in the sky.

And then the voice of the guardian fae as the light an immense blinding light attack that illuminates all and bathes it in light.

When Yvel and the others wake up they are else where. Atop the mountains even? Yvel would look to his friends and then towards the Demon Lord before them.

He'd seemed worn down, Exhausted the attacks form the fae doing much more than he had anticipated. "Just what's going on here?" Yvel claimed as he pulled himself up form his resting spot.

His staff used as support he looked towards the ravaged demon.
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:57] It all happens so suddenly, when things seemed hopeless, a sudden array of lights flash, before the voice of the Guardian Fae speaks out.

Fairies, so many of them, bombard Kor'Tos, consuming all in a blinding light. Sophie comprehended none of it, but when she finally comes to, they're no longer at the trove, but instead upon the mountains, before a worn down Kor'Tos.

Silver Durendal is still gripped in her hand, tightly at that, as Sophie steadily begins to recompose herself. Her body hurt, her wounds throbbing, and exhaustion still remaining at its peak.

But Kor'Tos, his armor finally seemed to have chinks in it. Sophie gazes upon the wounded demon.

"Oh, look what they did to you, creature." she huffs out.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:00] * You have been awarded 15 Roleplay Points! *
[01:02] Kor'Tos lifts himself off of the ground, slamming his massive fist into the floor. He snarls, gnashes, and then he roars.

"Insolent humans, you are but insects in my presence!"

He rises up and looks to the sky.

"You Fae think you can hide by misplacing me?!"

His mana was notably less destructive, likely exhausted from the previous attack. He starts to march as he shouts into the night sky,

"I will burn your entire grove to the ground, I will feast on every last one of you, and first, I will devour these humans who worship you and wish to become your pets!"

Kor'Tos looks down on the party of three, and then it begins marching toward them.
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:08] Kor'Tos staggers backward.
(Kor'Tos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:12] {NARRATION} IT seemed the creature wasweakening by the minute!
[01:12] Sophie cos Duran exclaims, "Don't let up!"
[01:13] Sophie cos Duran exclaims, "How does silver taste, demon?!"
[01:15] {NARRATION} Kor'Tos is definitely injured.He was weakening by the second, and as expected from a nigh-invulnerable being to be faced with mortality, they fly into a berserk rage!
[01:15] Kor'Tos exclaims, "GROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAA!"
[01:18] Admin AnMouse: A couple people have been reporting missing styles. I think Doohl is missing his.
[01:18] Admin Vriska: yeah, i think it's bugged
[01:24] {NARRATION} The weakening Kor'Tos staggers backward, taking the bombardment of the party until they force him over the edge of the cliff. He falls down, his body singed by light and gravely wounded until he can no longer be seen in the distance.
[01:26] Yvel, Gin, and Sophie all fought together. Lightning and Holy Magic, along with the Gentle Blade combat style. It was the combined effort of the trio that took on this massive beast of a demon Kor'Tor. It was tremoundous, giant, and powerful. It was something Gin had never gone up again. Compared to these types of things, syndicates and Moonfall Village ruffians seemed like a breeze to deal with.

Nonetheless, when Gin watched it fall to the ground, he fell down to a single knee. Lightning around his body finally disappeared, and he let out a sigh of relief, and exhaustion.

He looked towards the two others, and asked the most dreaded question asked in any Japanese Roleplaying Game.

"...That's the end of it, right?"
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:32] Kor'Tos, weakened by the attacks of the fairies, no longer stood a chance against the combined might of Yvel, Gin, and Sophie. Their blows come forth endlessly, abusing the worn down Kor'Tos.

Each stroke of Sophie's Gentle Blade wreathing Silver Durendal sear into the demon's flesh, dealing wounds that would be extremely difficult to reverse.

Sophie had been given a chance to breath, and she had no intentions of letting that precious stamina of hers go to waste. Her resolve burns brilliantly. Protect the fairies. It was a simple order, but, in knowing what failure began to feel like, Sophie's holy power against her fatigue, burned it brightest.

"We can do this!"

The berserker rage marked Kor'Tos final, desperate push, before he burned himself, becoming nearly deadweight in their final clash.

Sophie did not wish to risk such a monstrosity surviving. She grasps Silver Durendal, and pushes everything into a final attack, moving alongside Yvel's aim to bring forth judgement upon the kaor. Sophie descends the full force of her resolve upon it.

The final stroke burns with brilliant power, unleashing a devastating wave of power against Kor'Tos chest, violently wounding him.

With that final attack, Sophie kneels over, the remnants of her magical energy receding as sheer fatigue took itself into her breathing.

Regardless of their combination, none of their attacks ensured the death of Kor'Tos, and no matter how much Sophie might try. She no longer had the strength to stand up against the demon's titanic might.
(Sophie cos Duran)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:32] Had it not been for the fae's assaults breaking through the monster nearly invincible armor and weakening him he doubts they would've even survived...Yvel barely had time to realize they were in a new place, He had to kill the demon before anything else would occur.

Especially knowing now they were on the surface! He'd used the white cloud to rain down heavenly arrow's upon the demon, Then using the black cloud to produce streams of endless lightning that would burn the demons flesh, Followed up by horrific hurricanes of Yvel's conviction.

"I won't die here! I will protect Osrona and I will protect the fae!" Even if the fae had banished him it was all for the better.

Yvel attacked and attacked, defended and then attacked some more. But it wasn't without its difficulties. The berserker thrashed them down one by one knocking them to the ground.

Yvel being able to control the weather all the more freely now that the sky was open to him was the first to be knocked aside by a savage barrage of blows. He'd summon all of his strength just to get back up, The end of the battle...Either Yvel and his friends would win or the Demon.

"I'll use that spell again! You guys! Please lend me your strength!" Yvel would say, He'd remembered the way the fae used his spell, He created three pyramids, That drew power and then he'd expel that power from the center into beam.

He refined his holy magic, and in an attempt to recreate the very same spell the Fairy guardian used! Or perhaps even a replica using holy magics! Yvel would risk it all, His dream...his future...his legacy all on defeating the foe in front of him and felling the demon completely!

He'd allow Gin and Sofie to get in their final attacks while he charged his magic into his staff constructing the spheres of holy magic creating a tringle with said spehres as they shared energy they absorbed and then! When the chance presented itself Yvel fired!

"Holy Magic: Rays of Judgement!" A powerful blast shot forth like an Arrow piercing through the heavens blasting directly into Kor'Tos knocking him back into the ocean and out of view from the party entirely!
(Yvel Endore)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:45] {NARRATION} Kor'Tos has fallen, and the party remains atop the hill.
[01:47] {NARRATION} With the dust and shimmer of the fae disappearing, there is but a lingering voice. The words are unclear, and before long the echo is gone.
[01:47] Gin saw the defeated beast fall. Finally, it was no more. Taking in a deep breath, he inhaled, then exhaled. He noticed a small bit of powder on the ground, and picked up a small portion of it, making sure not to take more from Yvel then needed. Taking in a deep breath, Gin exhaled. The battle was over. Adelphi's Aegis was successful this day, and secured victory, so it seemed.
(Gin Fujiwara)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:48] They could finally recuperate again. Sophie doesn't allow herself to sit down, but remains standing, drawing in deep breaths of air as she slowly regains her stamina.

A realization sets in upon her, with the fading words. . . The sights of fairy dust from entry to now.
"Did he..."
(Sophie cos Duran)

[01:51] Yvel is drained both physically and mentally, Yet he is familiar enough with the mountain top to be able to climb down and still have his bearings. After expelling such a large amount of mana he once again proceeds to pass out, While the spell he had was a powerful one it drained him to the point of exhaustion...a trait that he would have to learn to work upon had he wanted to gain any further knowledge.

After a while of rest Yvel is back on his feat, despite not being able to use magic quite yet he's able to move back to the area of the mines where they had left their armor, He makes sure to retrieve it.

"I can't believe we fought a life and death battle with no armor....Nobody is going to believe this." Yvel said shaking his head.

As the tiny voice echo's throughout the mountain Yvel tries to hone in on what was said but he couldn't hear it.

"I hope...at the very least they understood our conviction and resolve. Letsget stronger and study more of the lifestream and fae so we can find a better way to negotiate with them." Yvel would say. His next quest would be to find something that would allow the fae to accept him.

Yvel would pour whatever resources he had, Into accomplishing that task.
