Cruor kept on smiling as the beam of destruction came towards him, putting his hand out in front of him. Blood converged in from of him and hardened into a pointed shield of red iron. The beam was intense and powerful, and Cruor was pushed back a bit, but he had made it so that the shield was diverting the laser around him instead of taking it full on. So he was safe, the area behind him was not, having been ripped to shreds by the deadly run off. When the attack was finished, Cruor scrapped off the burned up outer layer of his shield, giving a hearty laugh at Order's words. "My darkness is far past the point of illumination and order, Miss. Order, But I must say that your choice of dress is quite showing and fantastical, and the melody of your conduit blood," Cruor took a second to close his eyes as he listened to the sound of Order, a lightning fast beat that made him want to lose himself to it, "simply intoxicating, but not as much as my Madame Scorn. I would ask of you wish to join us, but I'm guessing from your actions that you're not in favor of our policies. A shame really, you would have made a good Reaper I believe, ah well." Cruor gave a slight sigh, then he raised his hand and the iron shield liquified and burst forth again in a barrage of tendrils towards the light conduits, some moving to flank her from the sides. Cruor, having covered his body under his robes a special Blood Armor, had a blade of the stuff and was charging with his Tendrils, riding on top of them and aiming to launch an attack form the sky. And he also formed a back up plan as well. Amongst the tendrils, a myriad of blood creatures were forming, little insectoid things, and the minute his attack came with in a few feet of her, they would charge forward, a swarm of creatures seeking to do one thing, distract her from the enemy, going for the eyes, nipping at her skin, crawling in her ears, what ever out took to take her attention off of their master. Ash Ash was currently watching the whole spectacle with a practiced eye. He wasn't going to join the battle just yet, as that would add more Chaos than is needed. He was keeping an eye out for any straggling citizens that hadn't made it out yet, and when ever he saw one, he was quick to help them exit the situation. Some of hiss boys were on their way, but Ash doubted they'd get their in time. Currently high in the air, he moved next to Eli, who was floating in the air as well, watching the proceedings. "Hey, Eli, what brings you here? Other than the crazy conduit battle that is." Ash said with a slight chuckle in his voice. "I wouldn't advise getting gin the middle of that yet, I'd say that whoever your going to fight with, be it order, Scorn and her lackey Cruor, or even me, you take a second to think about it. Don't do anything that your not a 100% sure on, that's what I always say. Or at least what I should." Ash finished with a laugh, never taking his eyes of the other conduit. He never knew what to think of Eli, but he hoped he'd make the right decision, or else Ash would have to take the guy down.
