Last Mark for Mana Overcast

Hmm, for being in the legion, he was alot like the people in the east. The way he looked at her, and the bone he had in the mouth. He would have fit right in over there. Interesting how he ended up over here instead. But, at least he was retracting his claws, rather then slicing at her with them.

"Cyano Conablum, and, I am guessing because i'm human and you just spent a good amount of time, you know, ripping humans limb from limb. Not exactly a good thing to do around here, even if they are bandits."

If Valeria had done her job, perhaps Reckoruos would recognize the name. Considering that, she was the leader of the group that the legion had allied themselves with, and had basically given them some place to stay. Though, maybe he wouldn't. Only time would tell that.
(Cyano Conablum)
"Hey there Cyano. . . . ." Kyrian would say as he stared over towards her.

He had just recently got out of bed with a new determination behind him. Leading him.

Only that there seemed to be another one of his kin in his way.

Turning towards him. Kyrian would turn back towards Cyano. "Picking up another apprentice I see? " he would say cold-heartedly. Only that he didn't mean to be rude. He just had a sudden awakening. Something that had woke him up.
(Kyrian Hayes)
 The ookami heard her name. She seem to be examining him for some reason. Though the creature didn't realize really what he was wearing. His mind was to feral and filled with emptiness that style was not really a caring matter. His old armor and other clothes were jus materials that were there. IThe ookami though just snuffed as he heard the words of how the woman spoke of the bandits.

"Well human, it shouldn't concern you on what i kill. Bandits are creatures who have no purpose but to destroy. I simply make them a meal since they have no purpose. Its better than me just going to Danarium and picking off a person correct. Do I lock like the type to sit at a market and have a meal?" He asked in a dark sarcastic tone.

Then he turned to see one of his kin had approached. The ookami eye gazed at the other ookami. He had a fresh eye, tail, ear, and a arm to boot on that. Though he had a missing leg. One thing the ookami rather not have is a missing leg. It was his power and his strength. One arm was okay to lose. A leg was simply a no.

"Another broken ookami, and let me guess this was by the hands of a human. I have no interest in becoming a human's pet. You could be but i will not work under anyone. I will learn from my own discoveries. Also woman you seem quite strong. How about you give me a taste of that power?" He asked with a smirk.

He ignored the ookami for now after the talk. He would get back to him if the woman rejects his offer.


(Reckorus Ookerius)
And... he talked like them as well. This, was a liabitlity if she ever saw one. Though, the way he looked. He already seemed to be turning quite feral. Perhaps already too far into Saekanis worship to be of any use. The thought of dispatching him would cross her mind, but, it would be put on hold as Kyrian arrived. Evidently thinking she intended to do the same thing to this Ookami as she had done to him. Come to think of it, that wasn't a bad idea.

"Well, I wasn't really. I could, but, meh."

Cyano would turn back to the white haired Ookami. It seemed he was, disrespecting Kyrian, and challenging her to a duel. Perhaps she would take him up on it? Though, she would give it a moment. She wasn't really feeling like fighting at the moment. Right now, she much preferred speaking.

"Maybe later. That was actually done by a malpercian, if you must know. I'm sure he could defend himself, but he isn't a pet. Now then, I suppose your right. Though, it still won't earn you any friends if people think your eating them. I mean, personally I don't care, but it's typically a good idea to try and make friends with the people that are capable of killing you."
(Cyano Conablum)
 "Another broken Ookami you say. . . .?" Kyrian would say as he took a side glance towards his kin.

"A human's pet?"

There was no sense of holding it in anymore as depravity started to leak from his body filling the air. Taking in a deep breath. Kyrian would once again focus on his mana. Controlling it as it would once again move freely thoughout his body. Exterenally and internally in a circular rotation. He had yet to give the technique he found a name. But that would come later as he would now control and move his mana towards his missing limb. Forming a makeshift leg out of it.

Then it would seem that Cyano understood the tension growing as she had explained his situation. But that infuriated him even more. She didn't have to defend him. He could do it on his own.

"It's to late for friendship when a worm like him has no manners " he would say bluntly as he gazed at Reckorus. Then looking back towards Cyano to confirm if he had the right of way to do whatever he pleased towards his kin if he showed any rebellious act
(Kyrian Hayes)
 Its defeat had been taken harshly on this day.

Zepar along with the lesser beings that could still walk followed along the flying Zepar, soon stoping only a few miles off as the turtlekai would crashland within the Wychwood. Its only regret here being the amount of weakness it had. It needed to do better than what it had done now, Zepar hated to be in such a prediciment. And as of now it had to face the consequences of such a thing. The yokai had to rest, it being protected by its lessers for the time being while it did so.

Some days passed by now, and Zepar was back at at least enough strength to get back to the Citadel, thus, it'd begin to make its way out of the forest, or it at least was until a sudden sight had been noticed. Humans, Ookami, mortals, they had been gathered there within the forest in order to do whatever it was mortals did. Zepar would give a harsh look to them all, stomping noises heard as it got closer obviously, and soon it moved on to chuckling.

"It seems i've found just the right source of food here....How great..." Zepar emitted a nasty darkness from its being, soon after going on to stepping forward and bending some, a chuckle being made. "Which of you will be giving me strength today then, hrm?"
(Zepar)
Boom!

The ground had soon started to shake at the tremble of footsteps.

Taking his focus off of his mentor to glance at the surrounding area. He would notice a Kaor-like turtle. This would be the second time that he had ever encountered an Kaor before. But at the same time. It was also the first time he had ever seen a turtle form of one. He hear many tales of how a Kaor should look like or how feared they were. But this one. This one was just a bit strange. It was as if the scientist in the lab had forgotten to lock the cage to their pet turtle and as they were conducting their experiment.

The creature fell it.

This made Kyrian tilt his head to the side as he glanced towards the Kaor. Watching it stand there and mock them as if they were nothing.

Which pushed Kyrian a bit.

"Why don't you craw back into your shell and try again another day. . Can't you see that I'm busy?" he said menacingly
(Kyrian Hayes)
 Cyano would feel the ground shake as the Kaor approached. This was something she definitely did not feel like dealing with... She would observe it for a moment, before realizing she had seen this particular type of Yokai before. Perhaps it was even the same one. If it was though, it didn't particularly seem to recognize her. And, if it did it didn't seem to care.

The more important thing, is that it seemed as if it wanted to eat them. Well, that certainly wasn't good. Especially since all she had been trying to do was get home. The chances of her running into a Kaor, on such a normally safe route were slim. But, these things were bound to happen now weren't they.

"Well, preferably none of us. 'Twould be a waste, considering how often I associate with you all. Though, if I am to be honest, I don't think I have seen many that look quite as powerful as you do"
(Cyano Conablum)
A brute and a charmer.

A chuckle escaped the turtle's mouth for a moment as it found their different personalities somewhat...amusing. The Kaor couldn't see the true benefit other than a tad bit of energy from eating the two though, maybe they could be used for more. For more than just a simple meal, and to be used for more plans the Kaor had. Zepar would glare at the two for a moment just before shaking its head up and down for some time, a moment of silence suddenly between them just before Zepar went on to speaking via telepathically.

"Mortals mortals mortals...Though your strength is nothing when compared to the great forces of yokai, you at least have one thing greater than a yokai that I will admit to....Numbers." a sly grin came across the turtlekai's face then, its eyes continiously shifting from Cyano to Kyrian and vice versa. "Such a thing like numbers, and mere fodder to use when in battle would surely be of use."

Another step closer was made, the ground once more rumbling as Zepar had moved. "The two of you...I will make you into my slaves. I see no other purpose for most of you mortals. It'll be good though, gaining more of your kind to throw into battle and to die for our own kind rather than the other way around." a smirk was given suddenly as Zepar allowed yet one more chuckle to escape its lips.

"Come now, such can be either be done by force, or if you simply give up your will to me and the rest of my kind. To the true conquers of this world." Zepar allowed one of its hands to move forward then, yokai being drawn forward due to the dark magic suddenly being used. It moving towards both Cyano and Kyrian as the attempt at enthrallement was made here. Cyano would have a harder time resisting such a thing rather than Kyrian only because of her occult magic, but such didn't matter. Gaining two new meat shields was Zepar's purpose as of now, and breaking their will to make them its own little slaves was the game it'd play to get them.
(Zepar)
Recieveing in the mockry from the turtlekai wasn't something Kyrian was fond of. But it would seem like Cyano wold begin to talk their way out of this situation like always. She was always the sweet talker. While Kyrian. . . He was just a legless Ookami now. Who had the power to create one at will. The only probablyy with his makeshift leg was that it wouldn't last long as it needed concentration. Which wasn't hard to keep. But whenever he got angered. It surely was.

Stepping up towards the turtlekai as he would become annoyed with the way he was going about. He soon would stop as he reached Cyano. Then there it was.

Something had started to pull at his mind. Drawing him in. enticing him towards the creature. But only for him to stop mere steps away from Cyano to back-step towards his mentor.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU FOOL! DO YOU WISH TO BE YOKAI CHOW?!" his ancestor would cry out in his mind. Blocking out and getting rid of any occult influence in his mind coming from the Kaor.

"WELL WHY DIDN'T YOU GIVE ME A HEADS UP THAT KAORS COULD TAKE OVER MY MIND!!!" he would yell back.

Soon to grab at his head and tilt it to the side. He would continue to hold his cane as he gazed down towards the creature.

"Mann. . . she won't shut up . . . . Anyway. . Cyano, what's the move?" he said with a bit of annoyance
(Kyrian Hayes)
Cyano would, suddenly hear something... It wouldn't take her long to recognize the source. It was in fact, the Kaor itself. Interesting, most certainly. His pathetic attempts at getting to her, they would be laughable at best. Pathetic at the very worst. Cyano would glance over to the Kaor, before doing something that, weaker minds would consider quite idiotic.

She would let him in.

No doubt, for a moment Zepar would feel his conscience enter hers. And, perhaps it would even feel as if he were in control for a moment. But, that would be shortlived as Cyano would, 'shut the door' one could say. With him trapped, the two of them would seemingly fall into some sort of trance it would seem. Though in reality, it was simply them being trapped within her mind.

At first thought, that would seem to be good news to Zepar. In fact, he may even feel victory, but it too would be short lived as the world would fade out before him. Replaced only by Cyano. Her hands in her pockets, a look of indifference on her face. Another look, and he would only be about as big as she was.

"Nice trick you have there, really, it is. But, I am the master of my mind. And... Well, your sorta trapped in here now. I know, weird right. Well, honestly, bit of a bad thing on my part. I let you in, and, I'll tell you this. Be waaaaaay more fun this way. You still have a chance my scaly turtly friend."

The world would again fade in to view, Zepar and Cyano would both be standing in wychwood again, though, they would be alone now. The first clue that, they were in their own minds, in case Cyano's speech didn't make it clear enough.

"Sooo, we're gonna play a little game. You can't leave until I let you go, or you thrall me. Simple enough. I, am not going to give up or let you go, until I have broken you into, as many little pieces as I possibly can. Your mind will, in effect be shattered."

Cyano would think on it a moment,

"Actually, I am fair. I'll give you an option. Give up now, and I let you go, we talk about this like civilized people, we all walk away happy and healthy, and you might even have a few friends that could save your scaly hide should someone like Danarium ever decide your on their list."

To drive in the point, a door would appear behind Zepar. Locked. If he agreed, all would be done now. But, that was no fun. She actually, truly hoped he would try for the thralling. She needed the entertainment.
(Cyano Conablum)
The ookami eyes shot wild open. He looked as he was surrounded by more annoying creatures. His eyes looked ver to the huge turtle yokai. Then his eyes shifted over to everyone else. The ookami was not in a happy mode. He awoke to all these people around him. It was not about to be a good time. His feral state had disallowed him sleep but now he was more awake than ever.

Look at the turtle yokai the ookami leaned its head. "May i help you yokai? You seem to have come upon me while i was sleeping. Though i'm fully alright now. Though questiosn are still looming my mind. Why is a yokai in ookami territory? It then was going to thrall the ookami.

Had the creature lost its fucking mind.? The ookami did not ask any questions. He was not simply going to push this under a rug and walk away. No, he would simply blank as he looked at the turtle kai. One thing the ookami was in thisstae was his own person. He doesn't work for anyone. The ookami cracked it fingers with a crack of its neck.

"You really wanna piss me off don't you yokai? ou come to my terriitory seeking some kind of glory? To make me work under you? Do i look like a pet? The woman has a point i could easily become allies with people are stronger then me. But i only follow one person and that is Saekanis!"

The creature felt his mind being pulled at. Yet, his determination and also his dedication to the ookami god was more stronger. His hatred for both humans and yokais made the ookami flinch the power. This feeling was the same from the malpcerpian girl. Yet, the ookami will was already twisted.

"You have no power over me yokai. My only god is the great wolf Saekanis, you try to twist my will i not be to nice again." He states with a angry look.
(Reckorus Ookerius)
 Traveling through the woods, completely lost in where he was going. The blue blade dragging behind him leaving a long gash in the earth behind him. He came upon three people confronting Zepar. He was not in the right of mind at the moment, his hiding ruined by the heavy feeling coming from his person, his depravity leaking itself out.

He watched the awkward conversations between Zepar, and the others, though one might go on that he can't comprehend golden eyes looking about the people in the scene, almost glowing with desires, wants. He wanted to carve into someones body, he wanted to hear them scream in pain and agony.

His lips curled into a twisted smile, one that no sane individual would ever make, he for now watched until Zepar would potentially need assistance in the matters of combat. Perhaps he could get the kaor to owe him, or spare one of his combatants for a future favor to be repaid. His fingers all nine of them made way for his mouth as he began biting at his nails in excitement. Though he remained silent for the time being.
(Zain Cross)
First it had been Kyrian. The Ookami seeming to break free of the attempt, his will still in tact. Zepar was surprised yet another mortal could actually break through, it was a surprising thing to say the least. Zepar figured they'd had at least some of the same strength as Sable, such was good. It meant that Zepar had someone that it could actually have some use for. Since the Ookami didn't want to simply give up its rights though, forcing them over would be even better. Zepar was prepared to do just so, but then he other Ookami's voice was heard, it seems he too broke the attempt.

So there seemed to be two humans so far, each of them able to actually break the attempt? Zepar was excited for this, having such 'strong' or at least somewhat able slaves would surely prove useful at somepoint. Maybe a good training partner for Felix or something of the sort. Zepar would chuckle just befor elooking to Cyano, would this mean she too had broken the thralling attempt? Zepar would focus on her for a moment, she seemed to have the most control over them all.

A sudden will of power from the womans mind stopping Zepar's own attempt and apparentl locking the turtlekai's concious away for the time being as it seems Zepar had its own options. So far though, it could only think of the three humans that seemed to be able to actually control their own wills as well as find a way to break a thralling attempt. Even Cyano the occultist. Zepar would chuckle some, deciding to do nothing more other tahn release itself from her just before laughing more.

"A reasonable talk is never something needed. Mortals have had centuries for such a thing, I no longer wish for it." sudden lessers of its own kind would begin to move forward, hungered looks and glares given to the three before it at this point. "I care not for whatever opinions you lot may have, nor your stance on this matter. My purpose here is to gain new slaves, new shields for my own yokai kind, not to make mortal 'friends'." A scoffing noise could be heard as it pressed on.

Sudden occultism forming around the yokai's body as harsh glares were given all around. A hand soon stuck out, and the yokai began to form its turtle spear just as usual. "A final chance shall be given here. Either allow it to happen on your own, or be forced. Either or doesn't matter...In the end you'll be pawns to even a lesser being."
(Zepar)
Cyano would feel the Kaor break out of her mind, somehow. Disappointing that he didn't want to play her game. Oh well, just meant they would need to fight their way through. After that, it would simply be a matter of her illusion magic doing it's work.

Regardless, she would plan what to do with it after. For now, she needed to think of how to fight it. She would immediately stand in the center of the group, and would position herself closest to the Yokai. Drawing her sword, she would ready herself for the fight to come.
(Cyano Conablum)
Now the ookami knew how he was gonna do this. He would first beat the yokai face in. Then he would beat it in a little more just to make the message clear. Then he would simply keep going. Yes, this creature had literally step on his religion and god. It spoke of how it would make him a slave. The creature spoke on how it would make him work under something lesser than it. This made the ookami's core shake to the limits.

Never has his anger had hit a point like this. Slave this ookami was no slave at all. This creature was nobody doll. He was his own person. The ookami just took a simple deep breath. Looked at the yokai and nodded. He was going to break this creature. Take him downwhatever the case it was going to feel his fury. The feral instinct was kicking in his body.

He had quite enough of these creatures just thinking they owned everything. Iy was about time that they learned how much regret they would feel. It was the very time he would swipe his axe. His feral mind slowly going more into the deepness. His god will make this yokai suffer.

"....slave...." That was all he needed to hear as his weapon was now well prepared to beat a yokai's ass. It was going to be some much worth it. How he was going to love the feel of his axe on this yokai spine. Though he would see how this little game plays out.

The ookami simply got into position ready to strike.
(Reckorus Ookerius)
Kyrian had already knew where this all was heading. The Saekanis worshipper, his mentor. Espcially the Kaor. It wouldn't take long before he would raise up his cane towards the Kaor

"Let's see what happens when the likes of you come on Ookami territory!"

Kyrian's voice would change as a brilliant aura blazed about his figure. Boosting him physically and spiritually
(Kyrian Hayes)
Zepar along with the rest of its little minions quickly moved forward. Their entire purpose now being to attack the foes ahead. Quick burst of lessers claws and fangs had been thrown at the magi before them. Sudden scratches and claws being made just before the magi and warriors found themselves able to actually break through the swarm and made it to Zepar. Sudden attacks of hellstorm magic as well as harsh melee blows found itself upon Zepar as the turtlekai did its best to try and fend off the mortals before it.

A sudden stomping noise was heard, and Zepar could be seen rampaging upon the grounds beneathe it. Earth magic being used here as it went on to causing the magi before it rumble and lose their balance. Such had been Zepar's chance. Suddenly moving forward, turtle spear in hand, and suddenly sweeping the lands as it swung the spear about. harsh hits had been made all around, but it was evident Zepar had become the winner this time around.

A glare was given to the warriors and magi for a second then, would they once more stand and actually resist the control Zepar was attempting, or would they stand down and allow such a thing to happen. Knowing their places as simple mortals.
(Zepar)
Cyano would fight as hard as she could, but, it wouldn't seem to do much, as the turtle like Yokai's shell would take the shock of most of her attacks. And, soon she would find herself knocked down. That would lead to the Yokais mistake though, as it let her rest.

Pulling herself back up, she would launch herself at the Kaor. Attacking with all her might. Hopefully this time, she would be able to bring the Kaor down.
(Cyano Conablum)
The ookami couldn't believe how fast this kaor was. It was very ungodly a beast like him should move like that. It was insane to be honest. Never had he seen a creature able to use as much magic as him. The walls coming at the ookami everytie he tried to duck and dodge. He watched as the creature was after the woman. It was very hard to focus with the swarm of minions after him.

Attacking he had hoped to stay focus on how to escape this assault. Moving as much as he could. Yet, he saw them all fall one by one. This creature was insanely strong. He couldn't believe this monster could do such wonders. The ookami shook the effects off and got up.

He needed to focus.
(Reckorus Ookerius)
For a turtle experiment gone wrong. This Kaor was definatly not one to be played with. It had all happened so fast.

One second he was up battling the creature. The next he was down and out for the count. It was almost impossible for him to consider his options left. Was he really going to go down and out for a fight?. . . . .

No. . He wouldn't allow that to happen. Now would he? No. . . He had to win this. No. . . they were going to win this.

Standing up once more, Kyrian would charge the creature but more carefully this time to avoid any permnant damage
(Kyrian Hayes)
 Finally, the Turtle Yokai would go down for a moment. It would be knocked a fair distance away, enough so that Cyano wouldn't be able to reach it. So, it would get a few moments. But, that didn't mean Cyano would let up.

While the Yokai would most likely have a few seconds to recover from the beating, it would almost immediately find itself beset by her strikes once again. She wouldn't let up, like the Yokai had. It had been stupid enough to do that, but she wasn't too keen on becoming a slave. So, she wouldn't extend it the same courtesy.
(Cyano Conablum)
This creature was extremely strong. He would go after all them one by one. The creature was going after all who came his way. The ookami felt the blow of his blade. It hit him hard as he tried to dodge the serious attack. Though he figured it would best to focus on this monster. Attacking whe he saw a chance come up. Never before had he thought he would have a respect for a yokai.

To take on three people alone was a big deal. The ookami had to admit. He was never expecting of such a power. He could have clapped if he didn't hate its guts so much. The bastard did hella well as he sent all he got at the three. Though it was not over as they manage to take the creature down a bit.

He hated working with others. Really it was killing him but this was about not serving another being. He would have to suck up his pride and focuson what his destiny was. Though the fight would still continue as the ookami knew full well this creature was far from over.

"Damn hahaha, this bastard is strong!" He says ti himself. Then pointed the axe and got prepared again.
(Reckorus Ookerius)
As the trio would once again combat the Turtlekai. It would seem as if they had the upper chance this time as they pounded away at the Kaor. Attacking flowing smoothly. One after the other. It hadn't taken long as they bested the creature as they danced around it. Avoiding attacks as this time. Not one of them had fallen. But they still kept at it. The lot of them kept on pounding away at the being. Using their full extent to beat him.

It was a strange way to make an alliance with a full blown Saekanis follower. But hey! Atleast he was helping the cause
(Kyrian Hayes)
Zepar moved forward once more, spear swinging around and such as it attempted to fight against the magi and warriors there. Their determination proved useful in this fight, and they even managed to place Zepar in a corner. The onslaught of magic and melee techniques soon caused Zepar to get into a bit of trouble, soon being knocked away by their efforts. A stern look was given, even its lesser beings had been hurt during all of this, impressive to say the least.

Zepar would once more stand, a grunt heard as it continued to glare at those opposing its will. "You all try and try and try, but for what?" Zepar would question. "Your efforts are useless! All mortals will do nothing more other than fall underneathe the very hands of yokai. We, yokai, will become the true rulers of this land, and we'll never have to deal with scum like you lot!" hissing could be heard as Zepar went on to pulling its spear forward, pointing it towards the three then as it moved forward once more.

The fight wasn't over.
(Zepar)
Seems they finally won. The turtle Yokai was down for the count. Cyano would have her sword raised, ready to take it's head off in one fell swoop. But, rather she would get a sadistic smile on her face. Turning back to look at Rockorus, she would give him the same smile, and he would know exactly what she was going to do, and that she was inviting him to join in.

Touching her finger to the Yokai's forehead, her illusion magic would begin to cloud the Yokai's mind. She had told him, she was going to break him into as many small pieces as she could. With her finger to it's temple, she would begin her work.

Zepar would find himself, awake and unharmed seemingly. Inside of a castle, drawn from his memories. She would let him feel normal enough for now, as he went about his business. But, eventually Zepar would notice something odd. And, he would be forced to look down and see, that he was now human. A weak one at that. If he tried to use magic, he wouldn't be able to. If he tried to lift something, it would be too heavy. His power would be sapped from him.

Behind him, he would hear snarls. Snarls of hungry Yokai, something he would be used to. But, this time they wouldn't be under his control. No, this time he was their meal. And, their master, would be someone familiar to him. The same woman who had just bested him. She stood there, the Yokai subservient to her. He was at her mercy.

"Tsk Tsk Tsk. You know, I offered you a way out of this. I suppose now is the time to tell you. You see, you never truly left my mind. In reality, you were, and always will be just like this. This, thing your like now. Weak. You couldn't even thrall, one insane Ookami, a child, and an occultist. Why, I doubt you would even be worth the time of these two."

The two Yokai, which he would notice were, in fact, lesser yokai would suddenly begin circling him hungrily. It seems, she was in fact wrong. He was worth their time. But, he wouldn't be able to move. A hallway would be in sight, but, he would be trapped, stuck to the spot. A pounce, and the lessers would be upon him, devouring him. His flesh would be stripped to the bone, leaving only his skeleton. But, oddly enough for him, death would not be a mercy.

Still in a human form, still without flesh, the Yokai would feel a burning sensation. His bones taking all of the pain. The room would become dark, and the Yokai would fall into a seemingly endless void. The farther he fell, the more unbearable the pain would become, until it would seem to the Yokai, that his bones were splintering from the inside out.

For, what would seem hours, he would fall. The pain ever growing, and ever changing so that he would never be used to it. But, finally the world would fade in again. And he would be there, in the forest. Unharmed again, and this time in his Kaor form. Cyano, Kyrian, and Reckorus would be sprawled out before him. Defeated. It would seem, all of it had simply been a bad dream.

Or, so it would seem. All three of them would rise from where they had seemingly been defeated. And, the battle would begin anew. Zepar would find himself beaten, only for the same thing to happen. Each time, in a seemingly endless loop, never knowing which one was real, or when his endless string of defeats would end. That is, until the scene would freeze.

Kyrian and Reckorus would fade, leaving only Cyano. Cyano would walk over, and push the Turtle down, onto the ground. Before attaching a leash to him. Suddenly, Zepar would find, he was the one finally defeated. And with his defeat, he would be subservient to her. Again, for a seemingly endless amount of time.

100 years, 200 years would seem to pass, and Zepar would feel each one, each endless day of servitude to the human he had called weak. To the humans he had thought himself superior to. And, at the end of it, he would feel death. She would seemingly, grant him the mercy of death. Zepar would feel his soul drawn to the star. His cycle beginning anew, relief was at hand!

Only, for one final shock as he reached the star. Standing inside, blocking his soul from being reborn, was Cyano. Casting him back down, the loop would begin anew, right back at the very beginning of it all. A yokai in a humans body, being devoured by lessers.

"Enjoy"
(Cyano Conablum)
The ookami cracked his knuckles. He was going to enjoy this. The fight was intense as ever. Never had he felt himself on a high like this. The pure rush for blood was crazy. It was a smile on his face for how much blood from either side had flwon over. Though the funny thing was he was gathering all their blood was he moved. They wouldn't notice that at all nope. Evwn the yokai's blood would prove useful.

The creature was managing to handle his own. Yet, he forgot about the one who was watching. The hunter was watching all along. With a quick hard strike it was over. Though the next part that came was going to be the best of the situations. He watched as the woman Cyano gave him a evil glare. Oh how delicious this will be. To see this yokai suffer at the hands of a illusionist. The ookami knew full well of its power.

Though as the dream state the yokai was in he would find himself in another reality. It was filled with nothing but blood and dead all over. to him it would loook like a dream come true. A world where humans were bowing or dead laid all over the place. Yet, the yokai was attached to chains. He would then see hears howling.

Then he would watch as many of his kin were murdered before him. Tortured one by one by wolf like people. The death might also not bother him but this next part will. The creature would feel his eyes boil in pure agony. A pain that increased over and over. He would feel the torture of a thousand burners on his body with is horns and all materials stuck to the turtle like body be removed.

After th yokai would feel it shell being ripped off into a oblivion. After he would feel countless creatures eating at his body. A pain that increased and kept repeating over and over. The creature would see the ookami looking down at him smirking. It would seem like years to him yet the pain wouldn't stop. The yokais tongue and organs removed and replaced over and over.

His power and mana drained from its body while its teeth were pulled out. The progress would not stop there. Then all of a sudden he would before a black coated yokai. The creature evil as the eye could see it. Its burning gaze one of a god like form.

"I have t admit yokai. Your not bad not bad at all. You might have tried to enslave me but i have to adit. You had me wanting to join after that display. Yet, you crossed the line so you will feel torture like no other. Feel the wrath of a million souls. Rot away to the core but soon you will escape this hell. Yet, remember this you batard. Never disrespect my god again!" The ookami says ripping the kaor's heart out sendiing him to a plain without nothingness.

Though the yokai would not be surrounded by cute bunnies and ,many beautiful sights of the world. A world where yokais anf humasn lived in peace and hugged. A world filled with yokais smiling and laughing with all the races. A world of pure agony!

The ookami stepped away as he was done. He would need to recover from this. His mana and hunger were satisified from this. It felt kinda good. Looking at the owman and the other ookami he snarled. It was a show of respect in a weird way.

Loking at the creature he smirked.

"Enjoy"

The battle would become intense as the ground broke beneath their feet. Cracking up and shifting with movement under the Turtlekai's hand. It didn't take long for the earth to erupt from the ground and threaten to swallow them whole as waves of occult would lash out towards the group.

But it would seem as if both Cyano and the Saekanis worshipper had their plans to go against this encounter as they both seemed to move from outside of the Kaor's grasp and attack him whenever the miniature earthquakes had stopped. Which Kyrian had followed up with. Seeing as how the two had coordinated so well. He would just wait for an opening before jumping in to deliever his own set of attacks. But in the end somehow. The Saekanis worshipper got the best of it and deliever the finally blow to know the creature into a daze before Kyrian would attempt to get it before him with the help of his new found ability. Only that, Reckorus was a bit quicker than that.

Panting heavily and dropping his shroud. His makeshift leg would disappear once more as he leaned heavily upon his weapon.

Wiping away sweat he would look back and forth between the Kaor, and his to companions. In which it had seemed that they were having some kind of mental battle or something was transpiring among the sort. But he didn't worry because no matter how stronger one could be mentally. He knew that they couldn't make it past Cyano's barriers because shes so thickheaded. So he would shrug it off and await for Cyano to give the way to go.

Which was rather fast as she taunted away at the creature, and so did the Saekanis worshipper

Zepar moved forward once again. Its spear raised high as it began to fight against those near. Sudden earthly magics and whatever the magi and warriors could muster up had been tossed at the yokai. The three seemed like exceptional fighters to say the least, and once more they found another way to pin the yokai in a corner, forcing the turtlekai to be on the defensive, still it hadn't helped. Not for what was to suddenly come.

A sudden surge of mana came for the yokai, and now it was within Cyano's grasp. Unknowing of this at first it would listen, for whatever reason unable to move and it felt completely different than before. It listened to her for a while just before noticing things change. Its body moving far up into the sky, past such even, and being forced into what seemed like a...human body? Zepar didn't understand it for a moment, but once seeing the yokai suddenly making their way for the Kaor/currently human/ it would understand.

Through sheer will alone Zepar managed to actually see through her illusion and found itself back within the woods fighting against them, only for a moment though. Suddenly, the white haired Ookami stepped forward, presenting itself and doing just as Cyano had, placing the beast within an illusion. Zepar didn't notice it at first, and instead it was focusing on the scene. Bowed humans, and Zepar itself had been tied up. Just what in the world was going on?

Yokai had been there, lurking about until quickly and violently murdered before Zepar's very eyes. The Kaor began to shout with anger, such a display being something the turtlekai wouldn't stand for, though, its eyes began to feel pain suddenly. Zepar was getting confused now, just what in the hell was happening? It took some time, just like with Cyano's own illusion magic, but the Yokai would soon break through his illusion as well.

Zepar was fatigued and somewhat disturbed by this point, but things weren't over. Kyrian suddenly moved forward, attacking relentlessly and providing great assistance to his illusion magi companions. Zepar would do its best to actually defend against the attacks but soon the Kaor was bested and fell over. A defeated glare was given to them in this moment, telepathic commands sent to its lesser beings that could still move. Ordering them to move elsewhere and in a hurry.

Zepar would groan as it slowly sat up. Obviously its fight in Frostvale has caused it to much damage. It wasn't ready to fight, not here, not now. Zepar would go on to flapping its wings suddenly, not as fast as usual, but fast enough! "Next time..." it would say in a somewhat disturbed and unclear tone. The yokai making its own escape via flight at this point.
