Location: Airedale Mid-morning Airedale Fields [hr] [@A Lowly Wretch][@VitaVitaAR][@Guy0fV4lor][@Pyromania99] Od's blade pierced the mammoth creatures fur, sinking into its body...what she might not have expected though, was resistance. The blade barely got an inch deep before it would be stopped fast. Red, inky blood would spill from the wound...but she would also note, that it would quickly start freezing the moment it left the creatures body. She had just enough time to react to the creatures grapple, drawing the blade from the shallow wound and cleaving through the trunk and air successfully preventing the creature from grabbing her, a pained bellow coming from the trunk as it recoiled. "Tough talk for someone who's gonna be trampled." Od would however, not have time to react to the man's axe again. A large, hefty swing slamming right into Od's side and knocking [i]her[/i] clean off the creature's side, sending her careening off its head in a daze of pain and probably a few broken bones to the ground below. "Man you guys are-Wa-hey!" Od had given Elias the leverage he needed to strain against the occupied creature, driving his strength and shoving the creatures tusks aside, the creature. It was soon followed by a rain of blades would fall upon the battlefield from Fio. Before the Mammoth or its rider could mount any defense, Elias charged the creatures left leg, the superhuman strength from Elias pinning the creatures leg in place, and fortunately one of Fio's blades would strike the creature right in the knee, piercing the thick leather armor. Its knee would start buckling, once again giving Elias the leverage he needed - The beast started to fall. "Shabbi!" The man shouted, the beast swaying, struggling to stay standing but gravity was now doing most of the work as it would fall. "Tch, fine, guess you guys are as good as the rumors say." Before he could be brought down with the beast, the man would leap into the air, holding the axe high over his head. "But you aren't gonna lay a single finger on her!" Fio could sense something - magical power coming from the axe as the man reached the apex of his jump. Whatever was being built up [i]huge[/i]. It was gonna be something they couldn't just ignore easily with the amount of power that had. He wasn't aiming for anyone in particular, but right for the ground near Elias it seemed...but it would never reach its target. [color=aba000]"I don't know where you got that axe, boy, but you'd do well not to raise it against your betters."[/color] Before the axe could hit the ground, a peal of thunder rippled through the field, a flash of lightning followed by the sound of a sword clanging against another weapon. The man hit the ground, his attack seemingly stopped full stop, his axe blade now locked with the Queens. "Where did you-" He barely got the question out before the Queen, with a display of force would completely deflect the hefty axe, throwing him off balance. Another strike from the queen followed, the golden blade arcing a powerful horizontal swing. White hot lightning would follow the blade, striking the mans side and sending him flying from some unseen force away from the Mammoth. "Guh-!" [color=aba000]"I suggest you surrender. That Axe of yours won't save you here."[/color] She'd say. [color=aba000]"Elias, Od, Fio, focus your efforts on that beast! I want it subdued, not killed if possible! Be careful, it likely has some tricks up its sleeve!"[/color] "Guess they really weren't joking, huh..." The man would get to his feet, wiping a bit of blood from his brow. [color=aba000]"I'll handle the leader. Luna you handle the rest."[/color] The mammoth was down, but it was struggling to get back to its feet. Maybe if they acted fast enough they could finish this just as fast. The combined efforts of Luna and Fio had completely broken the remaining bandits morale. When the blades started raining, they attempted to take cover, but it was so sudden a few blades got to a number of them before they could, and then they had to deal with a woman waving around light beams attacking them. Now they were down to barely just fifteen people remaining, and the were all starting to see that pursuing the remaining attack, was not worth their lives now that the Beast apparently had been toppled and were now attempting to flee. Luna could run them down easily enough, if she wished. [hr] [@Crimson Paladin] [hr] "Aha, not even gonna give me your name? Rude aren't ya?" The woman would jovially reply as the engagement started. The bandit impaled on Ethelred's lance was dispatched swiftly as he had engaged. The frigid lance would impale him easily, the man though would struggle in an attempt to gain some leverage but would quickly cease struggling entirely. The lance slung forward, the corpse launched across the ground. "Eeeh, pretty smart aren't ya guy?" Cecilia didn't seem perturbed in the least, the corpse doing as Ethelred intended, though perhaps he was underestimating her a bit. The corpse, would briefly, very briefly obscure both of them from the other, breaking line of sight just long enough for Cecilia to do a little trick of her own - she had vanished from sight in the briefest of instants. "Neat little trick, but I'm the best thief in Albion for a reason." The voice would come from above, just in time for Ethelred to maybe glance up, and see Cecilia having leaped high into the air. She was giving him a playful wink and sticking her tongue out at him as the arrow loosed from her bow - the arrow piercing Ethelred's shoulder with enough force to stun and a blast of air to shave off a an entire section of ice from his armor, but not enough to pierce or injure flesh.
