[center][h1]Absolis Rivard[/h1][/center] [hr] [@flamelord][@sgtEasy][@savato][@pirouette] Absolis very quickly blacked out from the blood loss. He was tough, but even he couldn't fight off Cyano alone. He would be concious just long enough to see ruiko use the bomb, before the head ache it caused knocked him out. As such, he would miss all the events I'm between, before the omni-gel that banha had used had healed him enough to allow him to stand. Absolis awoke to a...smell. it was an awful stench. A smell only one thing could cause. Death. Normally a groginess of having been near death would come over him, but the smell alarmed him what could have... that bomb! Novas bomb! Absolis quickly stood up. Around him, Cyano and her allies were already back. He could feel that Nova had been here, but was already gone. Sounds of a battle were coming from nearby, and all around, in the windows of the shops, Lay bodies. Piled against them, looking as if they had died in agony. Not one of them strong enough, nor having the connections to get out of the deadlands. It would be obvious, it would just be here. It would be the whole city. Nothing this deadly ever came in a small package. Not even kolon could create something this destructive. It was... monstrous. Ruiko set it off... but only Nova could have known how much destruction it would have caused. He said that there would be "acceptable casualties" but this. This was 4 million people. The man was omnicidal! Absolis would stand there for a moment, before deciding what he would do next. The first thing Absolis would do is toss his sword between Banha and ruiko, who were in the center of the group. Usually, this stopped people in their tracks. He didn't blame ruiko for detonating it, and banha didn't do anything. Nova had caused this. As much as he wanted to see Cyano dead for good, she hadn't killed 4 million people. In his eyes, she was low priority until he was done with what he had to do. He would tell banha and ruiko what he thought. On the off chance that they would help him. "The city is dead. I don't know how long you two have known nova, but I haven't known him long enough to trust that this wasn't his intention. These four" He gestured around himself, at the ethereal, and the sociopaths. "They aren't worth the trouble anymore." Absolis would turn to leave through the portal. Though he would give banha and ruiko the chance to follow him, if they saw it his way. Though before he left, he would turn to the dark outliners. "Don't think that means I'm leaving you four alone. After I'm done here, I'm coming back for you."
