Mayhew took his blade giving it a quick spin as he looked towards the first approaching footman he stepped forward twisting his body as the soldier's lance struck air where he had once been. Spinning back towards the enemy he his head off with a clean blow before moving to stand in front of Azure. "I'll keep them off your back, deal with him and get the girl out of here." He spoke in a tone more commanding than asking, he was no noble but he knew enough of how to deny the enemy a target.

Mayhew slashed any who dared approached with his rather dancing like style, he moved back taking a position Tomoe as brought a hand back. "Ancestor's blessing, I call forth your power! Open the gate and bring forth a servant!" He cried out tossing out five beads of which drew lines between each other before creating a gate to summon the warrior through. "You want to harm the girl! Get through me! I doubt even a dozen of you could match my blade!" He laughed striking out at them, ignoring the peril caught up in thrill of battle.

"Wha? How dare you accuse the King of Archanea like that?"

Nyx gulped deeply as she was scolded by Merilla. She backs away slowly as she doesn’t take her eyes off the girl with the king. "Look the king is stabbing the girl!" She says trying to cause a distraction so she can make a quick escape.

She gulps deeply as she notices Tomoe speaking with the king. This was going to be a horrible decision, Nyx ran onto the battlefield towards Tomoe and King Azure. She takes her chance with grabbing the girl that was with the king by the hand and before running off the battlefield.

She was out of breathe…. "Y-y-you… a-are…. safe…. Now-w"

-@Polaris North (AZR) & @ToadRopes-

Azure managed to kick the Gleivnir Warrior off the green-haired girl. Then, Nyx appeared and pulled the girl away to safety.

The Gleivnir Warrior saw his target get taken away and with his Footmen occupied by fighting, there was no way he could catch her. Despair filled his eyes but anger took its place when he looked back at Azure and Tomoe. With mindless rage coursing through his body, the Gleivnir Warrior screamed at them before throwing his backup knife at Tomoe.

The knife was easy to either block or evade but hitting Tomoe was not its intention. The Gleivnir Warrior used the distraction to charge at Azure and with all of his strength, lifted the King to the air. He then threw Azure at Tomoe, sending them both to the ground.

As Azure and Tomoe got back up, the Gleivnir Warrior recovered his axe. He waited for a move to happen and it was clear from his eyes that someone was not walking out of the fight alive.

-@Polaris North (MNO)-

Your sudden appearance as a great dragon stroke fear and terror in the hearts of the Footmen with many of them dropping their arms and running away. Even more ran away as you ravaged the unit with the assistance of your allies. The strangers who came to the aid of King Azure summoned creatures which further demoralized the Footmen.

Soon most of the Footmen had either died or routed away. The few who remained and continued the fight were finished off by Prince Jarde, Merilia, Keerin and the summoned monsters. You get a feeling that things might get bad if they tell Gleivnir about this battle with the Concilium.

As the short battle closed, you see King Azure and Tomoe facing off an angry Gleivnir Warrior. On the other hand, Eclisse was fighting six Footmen she had taunted when the battle started. She might have bit more than she could chew when her weapon was swatted away by a shield.

-@Darkmoon Angel-

Your taunt caught the attention of six Footmen and they went after you, splitting them off from the main force and likely giving Jarde and the others some room to breathe a bit.

But still you were outnumbered and, despite being only Footmen, you could do nothing against them but block and evade their attacks. After blocking an attack, a Footman managed to knock away your weapon with his shield.

Defeating the Footmen, or even just surviving, was going to be tricky.

-@Eisenhorn-

The Footmen you were fighting were all recovering from your initial attacks and could not interrupt your summoning. A purple mist formed in front of you and when it dissipated, a large spider appeared in its place. A Bael was brought forth and immediately charged the awed Footmen.

Your other allies also summoned monsters and that coupled with the appearance of a yellow-scaled dragon ravaging the enemies, the Footmen unit was sent running away terrified and demoralized. Soon most of the Footmen had either died or have routed. The few who remained and continued the fight were finished off by the allied group and the summoned monsters of your group.

As the short battle closed, you see King Azure and a foreign-dressed woman facing off an angry Gleivnir Warrior. On the other hand, you see a girl fighting six Footmen unarmed, her weapon swatted away by a shield.

-@Delta44-

After the purple fog dissipated, a Mauthe Doog appeared but it did not wait for you to give it commands, instead it charged at the disoriented Footmen and quickly tackled to the ground one of the hapless soldiers.

Your other allies also summoned monsters of their own and that coupled with the appearance of a yellow-scaled dragon ravaging the enemies, the Footmen unit was sent running away terrified and demoralized and that meant no one followed you as you made your way to King Azure.

You reach King Azure's position just in time to see him get lifted into the air by the Gleivnir Warrior and hurled at the foreign warrior. The Gleivnir Warrior picked his axe and faced the royal and the foreigner. He did not appear to notice you, however, so you may have the element of surprise on him.

-@Apollosarcher-

The creature you summoned was a Mauthe Doog, brought forth from a purple mist. It wasted no time in attacking any incoming Footmen alongside you.

Your other allies also summoned monsters and that coupled with the appearance of a yellow-scaled dragon ravaging the enemies, the Footmen group was sent running away terrified and demoralized. Soon most of the Footmen had either died or have routed. The few who remained and continued the fight were finished off by the allied group and the summoned monsters of your group.

As the short battle closed, you notice that King Azure get lifted into the air by the Gleivnir Warrior and hurled at the foreign warrior. The Gleivnir Warrior picked his axe and faced the royal, the foreigner, and by extension, you. The enemy Warrior looked angry but also sad. You feel he has given up, only fighting since he has nothing else to do.

Fortunately the green-haired girl was escorted away by a girl with bluish-green hair. At least that was one problem dealt with.

-@Lady Athena-

"Y-y-you… a-are…. safe…. Now-w"

The green-haired girl was too confused to resist you but looked relieved that she was spirited away from the trouble with relative ease. "T-Thank you, Miss." She began. "But... who are you? And what's going on?"

Her gaze returned to the battle. It appeared that the Footmen were all running away which meant that your party had won the fight. "I-I'm not even sure where we are. Please tell me what's going on, I'm so confused..."

Ansgar smirked to himself, watching the large spider lunge into the awed ranks of footmen. Never underestimate someone, he thought with a quick glance, taking in the situation as it was developing. Manakate had shifted, and having a dragon bear down onto the footmen ranks was likely disorientating and demoralizing. Coupled with the two other summons arriving to even out the numbers, it seemed the footmen were having trouble with the idea of what was a two on many, was now rapidly turning into a route. And indeed, the footmen that yet lived and could run, were running. The king was still fighting the warrior, who seemed more interested in fighting to the death than simply running to live another day. Foolish, really, the fight was lost. No sense in continuing to struggle, really. Then again, he considered, opening combat how he did would have appeared foolish as well. Yet, look how everything turned out. But, one more fact was noted that he simply could not allow to continue. One myrmidon woman, going off her style and manner of carrying herself, was being accosted by six footmen that yet lived. She was unarmed too, and it seemed her weapon was at the feet of the one footman who had disarmed her. How embarrassing.

While it would not even appear to be more than a scant heartbeat, the Ereb native considered the situation. King Azure, still being accosted, and the original reason for engaging in combat. He had help, however, and likely could handle his own against a single warrior even if it was not the case. However, he knew not the skill level of the woman who had been disarmed, and she had also come to the aid of the King, alongside the others. The king's ward, the reason for him to stand his ground, had been spirited away to safety as well. That made the next course of action rather clear, and self explanatory. No sense losing bodies so close to a victory snatched from the previously yawning jaws of tragedy. As such, the plan came to mind quickly. She needed support, and a chance to reclaim her weapon. First objective was simple, the second, not so much. With the Bael doing its own thing, as they say, and the ignored orders from one of the other summoners that had acted as such, he knew it would continue to do so. As such, that left it to him since no one else seemed to be moving to her aid.

"Let's clean things up, shall we?" He muttered to himself, striding forward as the Bael did its work rather admirably, he had to admit, seeing the large spider had been a surprise. A pleasant one, but a surprise none the less. But now, to work. Opening Arcthunder again, he sheathed his Levin Sword to focus and concentrate on what needed to be done. She had gotten their attention remarkably well, as such, he doubted they would turn readily, at least at first. First blow had to open a path to her weapon, following strikes, to cover her. As such, as that familiar surge of power coursed forward, he snapped his hand downwards as the pages of his tome turned on their own, conjuring forth another potent strike of Arcthunder, hurtling down with that familiar sound following, right onto the head of the center footmen who had disarmed the woman. He did not advance any closer, focusing more on providing ranged magical support to the woman beset by foes, whether she chose to regain her weapon or continue to evade, and open up more chances for him to strike out against the footmen besetting her. He would continue to provide his ranged support as long as she remained in danger, once they cleaned up, introductions might need to be in order. Then he had to continue to the Dragonrage Pass, though things here might have to do with events there.

Nyx would look back at the green haired girl and lets out a sigh of relief. She was expecting to be killed or something. She shuts her eyes as she just listens to the green haired girl "My name… It's Nyx, And currently an army is attack. We are currently standing at the edge of a forest and a mountainous field" She smiles kindly her ears visibly similar to that of the green haired girl "Now may I ask your name now? Were you kidnapped? Please tell me you were kidnapped by that man" Her personality had completely changed when she began to speak about King Azure "I dont trust him"

"Kay kay...ugh, you gave me the fun job again. And there goes the others...yay, I get to hang by myself. At least all the other troops are running away, hell I don't even need to hide when I go take my shot. I'll be right back."

Taka starts walking off, taking his dear sweet time to find a nice shooting position on the ridge they were at. After all, he had no doubt that no one would come attack him from the rear. Taking aim at the Gleivnar Warrior who seemed to be busy dealing with the other side forces there, his first arrow was aimed at the man's hands. The second shot was aimed for his legs so that he can prevent him from fleeing, while his last shot which he put the least effort in was to take care of one of the men Eclisse was facing. He was laughing as he got the easy first two shots at the main warrior, despite the fact he wasn't trying to kill him...he was still getting a chance to take on another big target without too much difficulty. Nothing could go wrong so far...nothing.

"Hehe, bulls-eye!" (crit quote if the first two shots hit)

Perfect conditions to shoot, no trouble from all directions...Taka could get used to this. That and he didn't even have to plan an escape route this time, maybe the group's luck finally changed!

Noting the success of his summoned creature, Zueche decided to let him loose on the footmen and not bother communicating with it further. There were some beasts from the other side which just couldn't be reasoned with, and would have to be sent back forcefully. He hoped the footmen would prove a decent distraction, though.

His attention now lay ahead, towards the Gleivnir warrior and the royalty whom he'd thrown. An impressive feat of strength, certainly, however Zueche himself held some strengths himself...

As he moved in closer he steadied his movements, watching the warrior and preparing to cast his Cleanse spell. As luck would have it, two arrows would be flung towards the warrior also, increasing the chances of Zueche's spell hitting. With the noble safely out of range thanks to the Gleivnir warrior's earlier throw, Zueche shot forth his magic with precise, yet powerful casting. "This should do it..." He muttered to himself quietly with a faint smile spreading across his lips, expecting his magic to decimate the man. His magic would fly towards his foe in an instant, aimed towards his center of mass...

Tomoe easily saw the knife coming; she had dealt with countless knives in her training, and deflected the weapon with ease using her guard naginata. However, what she did not expect was the purported client being used as heavy artillery and thrust upon her with enough force to cause her to buckle and crumple to the ground. Tomoe yelled out, a sharp pain shooting up her left leg. Damn it! she thought, for King Azure surely was not any better off than she; she did her best to stand upright, but buckled a bit, for although she could shield herself from any bad damage to her bones, the blow had caused her to fall the wrong way and thus sprain her leg.

Despite this, she ignored the pain, though she was standing with a visible limp. Hopefully a healer could get to her in time, but she had to defend the king at all costs. She assumed a defensive stance, and stared down the warrior.

King Azure

Azure sighed in relief as the woman he was protecting had been taken away by a green haired girl. That was useful. He also took note of the others who had entered the fray. Myno, the yellow dragon he had become familiar with, was also there so it was safe to assume that this was Prince Jarde of Ereb's division. A small troupe, they said. Well, there was no use on observing the ones he will be meeting afterwards right now, as there were more important matters at hand.

He looked at a person who had decided to go and aid him. A girl, someone who looked form the foreign country of Iapana. She told him to get the girl to safety. "I see that one of your members already has that cover-" He was abruptly stopped when the Warrior screamed and then threw a dagger at Tomoe. In that instant, the Warrior managed to pick him up. Quite a fear, he would admit, as he knew that he was in no way light. Azure was then thrown towards Tomoe and then they crashed down together.

Azure let out a groan as he rolled himself off Tomoe and grabbed his sword. "Apologies. I was distracted." Azure admitted before using his sword to aid him to stand up quickly. He saw that the Warrior looked like he was ready to take the both of them on. Though when he saw that the other two (of his side) took position and then sent two arrows and a spell towards him, Azure decided to stay his hand but kept himself prepared just in case the Warrior survives such an onslaught of attacks. It surely looked devastating from where he was looking.

Myno

Seeing the soldiers scatter at the sight of a dragon and three summons, Myno sighed in relief. Less people to worry about. He then looked around. The problem with the Warrior seemed like it was going to be resolved and there were already four people against him. He trusted them enough. The woman King Azure was protecting had been retrieved by Nyx too - though he does think she's saving her for the wrong reasons, it still completed the objective.

He looked towards Eclisse who had been surrounded and was now weaponless. The tactician from earlier was already helping and was scattering the enemies with his Arcthunder. However, it was increasingly obvious that he wouldn't be able to get them all in quick succession so he decided to help out. Tapping into his natural fire inside his belly, he let out a fireball towards the soldiers furthest away from Eclisse so that she wouldn't be hurt by the explosion.

-@Eisenhorn-

The thunderstrikes of your spell send the Footmen accosting the Myrmidon girl into disarray, allowing her room to maneuver. You realize that she didn't have to as you see the Prince slash one of the Footmen from behind while an arrow takes down a Footman nearby. Before the Footmen could properly react, a female Hero gave them the nastiest glare you have seen yet. That was enough to send them running.

And with that, the battle was over. Soon all the Footmen that could flee, wounded or not, had fled. Several bodies of the Gleivs lie on the ground with the three monsters you and your allies summoned searching and finishing off any survivors. You spot the Gleivnir Warrior lying on the ground, his armor singed by dark magic and two arrows sticking out of him. He was likely dead.

As things calmed down, you find yourself amongst the Dark Mage and the other warrior just outside from the group who was currently tending to King Azure. Then, the prince approached the three of you while his companions continued to tend to the Archanean King. "Greetings warriors. I am Prince Jarde Devaron of Ereb." He introduced himself. "You three have done a great service to the Concilium. I'm not sure if you know but you just saved King Azure of Archanea. I'm not sure what he is doing here but I guess we'll find out soon enough."

"Anyway, may I know who you all are?"

-@Delta44-

The dark orb of your spell hits the Gleivnir Warrior who could not move, immobilized by the arrows that pierced his armor. Once the orb made contact, he was blown back into the ground and there he lay unmoving. He was probably dead by now, his armor singed by your magic and two arrows sticking out of him.

-@ToadRopes-

Despite having a sprained leg, you stood valiantly to protect the King of a country you may not know. However, a couple of arrows struck the Gleivnir Warrior then a dark orb blew him to the ground and likely killing him. Regardless whether you were relieved you did not have to fight the Gleiv or displeased that you did not have to fight the Gleiv, the battle was over.

You and your party regrouped with King Azure while the warriors that came out and protected the royal waited just outside the group. Jarde immediately commanded Keerin to take a look at King Azure and once they found him to be fine, the Ereb Prince went over to the other warriors as he ordered Keerin to take a look at you and the others.

The aqua-haired Sage approached you first. "Lady... err, Tomoe correct?" She took a look at your limb. "I saw King Azure get hurled at you and with his size, it would be miraculous for you to emerge unharmed. Where are you hurt?" She asked.

-@cloudystar-

All your arrows hit true, taking a Footman down and immobilizing the Gleivnir Warrior allowing the Dark Mage to launch a dark orb of magic at the Gleiv and blow him to the ground dead. The Footmen fighting Eclisse were also routed, thanks to some Arcthunder bolts and Merilia's death glares.

Jarde immediately commanded Keerin to take a look at King Azure and once they found him to be fine, the Ereb Prince went over to the other warriors as he ordered Keerin to take a look at you and the others.

Keerin first took a look at Tomoe while Merilia approached you while looking at the battle's aftermath. "Well that could've gone better, but also a lot worse. I'm glad none of us died. None of us are seriously injured too." She remarked. "Still, the whole thing is confusing. What do you think happened?"

-@Lady Athena-

"Now may I ask your name now? Were you kidnapped? Please tell me you were kidnapped by that man. I dont trust him."

"M... my name?" The girl repeated. "My name... I-I don't know. I don't... I don't remember." By not being able to answer that question, it was clear that you may have a case of amnesia on your hands.

"And... and that man. I think... I think he saved me. At least I think so." She said while she looked at King Azure. "Why don't you "

---

Nyx looked at the girl with confusion "Y-y-you dont remember what your name is? Thats unusual..." She sighs as she looks to the ground before hearing the girls response to the other question she asked "Most of the time people with power such as a king end up having no need for people like us. They usually only save or ask for things to benefit themselves"

Nyx sat down on the ground and invited the girl to come sit with her. She would fiddle with her necklace for a moment before removing it. She looked into the green stone in the center of it "Do you know how to defend yourself? Do you have anything that man would want to do?"

"Hoi, commander, we should really be wary on who're we're letting into our ranks more...if not actually watch out for other forces coming. Since I'm done with my job with assisting all the people you wanted me to shoot at...I do want to report that thanks to that magic guy, I wasn't able to capture the leader. I had him disarmed too damn it. I'll try to make up for that some other time but I think I'll go find a quiet spot to rest if not practice a few more shots. After all, got to keep the good aim streak going so practice makes perfect. If you don't mind of course."

Taka regroups with the others with his bow now back on his back...and his arms stretched toward the sky. He was quite tired after shooting the precise shots despite getting somewhat of a chance to rest due to his lack of participation in that last fight. The ex-bandit just wanted some time to himself, rather letting the others mingle for a bit as he practices or naps...definitely doing both but not in that particular order.

@Darkmoon Angel@Eisenhorn@PaulHaynek@Polaris North@Lady Athena@Delta44@ToadRopes@Apollosarcher

-@Lady Athena-

"Do you know how to defend yourself? Do you have anything that man would want to do?"

The girl declined your invitation to sit by staying stood up. "No, I do not know how to defend myself." She answered. "And I don't know that man so I'm not sure what his intentions are. All I know that I was being chased and he joined me while I was running, promising to protect me."

She turned her gaze to your party in the clearing who appear talking to each other, probably trying to make sense of the situation. "Aren't you part of that group, Nyx? Shouldn't you be with them right now?" The girl said. "Well either way, I thank you for saving me. I'm not really sure from who though..."

-@cloudystar-

After all, got to keep the good aim streak going so practice makes perfect. If you don't mind of course."

"That's okay, Taka. Battles are chaotic so it would be hard to make plans work. I admit that it's a shame but no use crying over spilled milk." Jarde replied to you, sparing a moment from the new warriors. "Don't stray too far, alright? We may be moving out again soon."

As you leave, you pass by the body of the Gleivnir Warrior who lied on his back. However, you hear whispers and wheezing coming from the body's direction. "...War... So much war... So much blood..." If you decide to hear more, you find that he was just repeating those words over and over as life left him. "...War... So much war... So much blood..."

Long story short: The Gleiv died.

Tomoe lowered her weapon and flinched from the sharp pain. “Well, the king is safe,” she said, satisfied. “That dastard, whoever heard of throwing a human being at a soldier? Never in my life…”

Tomoe limped over to the rest of the group. I’ll have to watch my footing next battle, she thought. No use being a bodyguard if I can’t protect my own blasted ankle.

Tomoe let out a breath and sat down as Keerin came to her. “Yep, that’s me,” Tomoe replied. “Thankfully, it’s just a sprained ankle; my weapon took most of the impact, and I’m glad that he wasn’t hurt by being used as a crude ballista.”

Slowly but surely the soldiers were slain, Eclisse served as quite a distraction for the group, but she didn't come out of the fight without injury. One of the soldiers must of got her in the middle of the fight, because there was a slash across her abdomen, the blood had all but stained Eclisse's white coat. "Ugh... Starting to regret giving Roane my only Vulnerary... Heh, ah well... Its just a flesh wound..."

Eclisse made her way back to the group, apparently there were some new faces. "Well... Not as hectic as it was at the camp... But I actually took a hit back there... Anyone got a sec... Bleeding over here..." Eclisse tried to make a joke out of it, try to dumb down the seriousness.

-@ToadRopes-

“Yep, that’s me, thankfully, it’s just a sprained ankle; my weapon took most of the impact, and I’m glad that he wasn’t hurt by being used as a crude ballista.”

"Indeed. Lord Azure is indeed fortunate he is not hurt much." Keerin agreed as she crouched to take a look at your ankle. "I suppose you are lucky too, only having a sprained ankle. Here, let me take care of it." And with her Heal staff, the Sage's hand glowed light blue and the soft, relaxing energy transferred to your ankle and suddenly, the pain of the sprain was gone. "Normally, I'd say this was a waste of magic but I suppose I have plenty to go around."

"Also, I'm sorry for snapping at you earlier." Keerin stood up and dusted her robe a bit. "Prince Jarde is... a very important person to me. I hope you understand." She said before attending to the Myrmidon Eclisse.

-@Darkmoon Angel-

"Well... Not as hectic as it was at the camp... But I actually took a hit back there... Anyone got a sec... Bleeding over here..."

"I am here. Let me see your wound." The Sage Keerin approached you and took a look at your wound. "This is a bad slash. It would get worse if it is not attended immediately. Here..." Keerin, with Heal staff in hand, conjured some light blue energy in her free hand which then transferred to your slash wound on your abdomen. The wound closed but the blood staining your clothes was there to say. "I'm afraid we'll have to see someone in laundry duty to get rid of that." Keerin remarked, referring to your stained clothes.

"I must commend you for bravely drawing the attention of several Footmen, Miss." Keerin said. "It is a tad foolish but brave nonetheless."

King Azure

@Darkmoon Angel @ToadRopes @PaulHaynek

Azure sheathed his sword. The Warrior had been defeated. Before addressing anyone else, he looked around to look for the green haired girl he was protecting. Seeing her with the girl who had taken her to the side earlier, he sighed in relief. At least she was safe. He turned his head back to the group who gathered around and then walked towards them.

"I sincerely thank you for your assistance in fending off the Gleivnir soldiers. I do not know what would happen to me and to that girl." The young king said before bowing his head even though he was of higher position than them. He then looked up once more to burn the faces of those present. He saw Myno, the Manakete who he had sent off to join a regiment that was to be formed at Dragonrage Pass. Little did he know that a Prince of Ereb would be part of this little regiment of theirs. Surprising, the father didn't look like he was much of a fighter because of his attitude. Guess it didn't run in the family.

Placing a hand on the hilt of his sword to put him more at ease, he sincerely smiled at the people there. "I am curious though, does any of you know what had happened in Dragonrage Pass?" He asked, truly unknowing of what exactly transpired in the accursed place where the lands were painted with crimson blood. While he would have seen it in another perspective, considering that he had gone there for the meeting itself, it did not seem that he was any more knowledgeable of the cause of the war than the others.

---

Nyx sighs as she felt awkward sitting down while the girl stood, she would get to her feet and smiles back to the girl "Maybe I can get someone to teach you! Cause I doubt this will be the last time you are chased, tends to happen a lot" She would realize what the girl had just said and immediately she would panic a bit "Why were the people chasing you? Still don’t trust that man's motives!"

Nyx would turn to her party and then back at the girl "I-i-I am….. Technically…. But I find that the group over there arent in need of me" She sighs "I saved you from that man! He is most likely a fiendish king with no use with people he finds unworthy of his company. Also saved you from all those footmen down there which were fighting with everyone else"

"...well I guess I'm luckier than I should be if you're still alive. Oi, someone who can heal, you guys might want to check this guy out before he is sent off. He just keeps saying there's a war going on and there's tons of blood...so guessing it's a pretty bad fight happening. Doubt he's going to live much longer, you guys want me to carry him over or something? It's the captain from the fight...the one that one of the mage guys with us blasted with magic."

Taka sits down next to the dying man...watching him rather carefully as a hawk would with a mouse in case the mouse tried to do anything suspicious. He did have his hand on an arrow, occasionally rubbing his fingers over the arrowhead to be prepared to either carry the man or put him out of his misery. After all, it didn't even seem like the man wanted to live anymore since they did get crushed in the battle.
