That in effect would give Alex ample time to prepare be it through preparing tools or plotting an escape route just in case diplomacy would fail. And even then, he still had the power of the Blue Relic at his side, the jewel remaining inactive in his pocket when Alex approached the front door. [color=c4df9b]“Stark. Stark Zealot. Or perhaps you have forgotten the face of Imperium’s Enforcer?”[/color] the metal man said right back. It was obvious he wasn’t here for good news and even now, the lingering traces of the Relic could be detected by him. How Alex wanted to handle the situation and play it out was up to him right now because it didn’t seem like Stark was going to strike; no doubt waiting for Alex to reveal some evidence that could be used to apprehend him. Back in the sewers, Ruxen huffed at Tori’s words. [color=ed1c24]“Yeah, well I’m surprised smartasses like you still fucking exist. And as for your offer, I said I’ll fucking think about it. But frankly, it sounds both you and the shitty knight want to make me a house cat. And that blows ass!”[/color] Ruxen snarled. She was going to add a snarky retort to add on to that but unfortunately the monsters in the dark chose then to attack. [color=f26522]“Elly!”[/color] Solanne said, horrified as the water itself seemed to be their enemy, lashing out and dragging her sister away by her ankles. Rage billowing in her features, she brandished her blade in one hand before firing off a stream of molten flame with the other, aiming with precision and care at the slime holding Eleonor. Towards her, she would hack and slash to try and close the distance between them. High up the tower that hovered Infinitum, Titania was running for her life. No way could she ever do that again, not without Yggdrasil tearing her apart. She saw neither sight nor sound of Axon and wondered if he had somehow fled the scene overall. Not only that, but the monkey was gone from her sights as well. Those idiots! Sighing, knowing she couldn’t just leave either of them behind, she turned right back around to see what the hold-up was about. Měihóu couldn’t seriously be trying to take Yggdrasil on, could she? It was suicide! Or if she was, she would at least need some hefty back-up. Gripping her massive weapon, she pocketed the Relic before heading towards Měihóu’s location. Such events were converging on one another; if not by chance, then by the careful hand of another. As the trio of youth went forward to wrap up their battles, the masked man finally revealed himself in Rivenwood, phasing in view in front of Si. He looked at the cat before turning towards the scene of battle. [color=silver]“You put your faith in children? It’s a wonder your Resistance is struggling to overturn all that I have put in place,”[/color] he said with little emotion. [color=silver]“Tell me Fairy, why are you choosing to start battles you know you cannot win?”[/color] [hr] [center][@floodtalon], [@BlueAjah], [@KoL], [@The 42nd Gecko], [@McFazzer], [@Awesomoman64], [@Lonewolf685], [@Flamelord][/center]
