Azurian Dream

The Gift of the Gods

"Do you people not tire of this useless gesture... for if this continues I doubt any be left to regret this," a dulled voice asked as followed by the large thud of another man falling to his death at the questioners spear. Maltien had been hoping for a restful travel on the mountain side after the vicious onslaught he had escaped in what was left of the human settlements past the avian mountains due to Orc raids. Yet not even a day in he had the misfortune of running into a slaver wagon, and well with his arm markings in the wide open saying he was a slave... well lets just say people thought they could get a fancy reward for returning someone else's property.

"You cowardly lot he is one many stop giving him so much damn room and rush him," the Owner of the wagon yelled aloud to the last four standing men of the original ten man unit. Yet after the brutal slaying of their comrades, and the skill the stranger had with the crimson spear... well they were not exactly willing to charge at this moment.

"I'll say this one more time out of my way fools," Maltien threatened as he pointed his spear at the men with swords drawn. With a hesitant battle cry he was charged by the man at the furthest left who went at him with a horizontal swing for his head. The spearman responded with a vertical block using the middle section of the pole arm to block the blade as another man went charging for his backside. With a quick acknowledgement of the soon to be pincer tactic Maltien pushed upward breaking the first attackers hold on his own weapon before thrusting his spear backwards in a upper angle right into the mans adam apple shattering the mans neck structure in a instant death. Then with a forward single hand motion Maltien impaled the first attack in the chest with the sideways prongs lightly cutting in before the weapon was pulled back dislodging from the now dead man's chest.

"This job doesn't pay enough for this," one of the panicky slavers yelled as he dropped his sword and ran the opposite direction as the owner yelled after the coward before notice a even worse situation. In the heat of the slayings the slaves they were carrying had gotten bold and had stolen the keys to their shackled from one of the dead slavers and were now well noticeable making a run for it in the distance not to far away from the traitor.

"Well," Maltien asked as he eyed the last armed slaver with his grip tighten on the blooded spear to the point that the blade of it almost matched the color of the pole. The slaver was hesitant his eyes dilating in fear yet he kept a grip on his sword, and seemed more committed to his job though as horrid a job it was. "Is such a demons business worth your life," Maltien asked trying to get the man to give up. While the spearsman clearly didn't have a good opinion on slavers to begin with he was not a monster if he could avoid blood spilling he would. Yet it seemed without words the man made his choice as he steadied his arms, and let adrenaline take over as he charged Maltien. Taking a step to the side he avoid the slashed let and right as he lead the man closer and closer to the edge planning to simple push him over and be done with it yet right as they neared the edge a sudden tremor claimed both their footing. A single curse passed Maltien mind as he felt himself fall. Thankfully his reflexs allowed him to atleast respond to slow himself down as the mountainside being slope like allowed him to pin on the side and grind his armored feet against the rock as he slid down with rocks scattering everywhere as he fought to keep his insane rock sliding ahold. With one last ditch effort to halt his gaining momentum he shoved his spear downward into the mountain causing even more rocks to scatter as he slide downward. Unfortunately though he did start to lose speed their was one factor he couldn't forseen... a dead end as he went of the slop and started to plummet... right down into the clasp of something rough, metal... and legging like? His fall to his death had been pretty quick to his shock though his back now hurt like all types of hell causing him to let go of his spear and groaning in pain with his eyes closed. What the hell had he fallen on? With a slight blood spotted breath due to sudden impact he opened up his eyes immediately going wide as he was now in direct eye contact with a woman... a very large woman. Registering the fact he had fallen into the lap of a armored giantess seemed to take the edge of the pain he should have been feeling. With a light chuckle he pushed himself off her lap on the side his weapon had fallen with a soft thud he got up slowly mumbling about dumb luck as he slung his weapon onto his back.

"Apologizes about that... lost my footing do to a tremor," he said unknowing the cause was what had just saved him. He straightened himself up popping his back as he cursed the damage he had sustained though not mortal would force him to have to be careful for the next few days. It was then he realized their was a bird and fae perched on the giantess and not to far off from them was a avian like man perched in a tree. With a raised eyebrow he gave the situation a thought as he shook his head.

"No I am starting to think I landed harder then I thought," he joked as he dusted himself off. "I apologize for interrupting I was attacked... in fact its good I fell into the grace of your presence you have slavers using the higher roads as a route to smuggle goods," he informed the Avian as he sat down knowing his body was in no condition for to much movement.

Well she harder to hurt than most, what with her advanced armor. But as a woman of technology, I'm sure she'd be able to figure out a way to get healed one way or another. It would just take a bit longer than most creatures to heal. With a giant body, skin and born more akin to mountain stone than tender flesh, it takes a loooong time to heal.

XD well no worry I thought of a funnier result x3

Ah such is life when you are more giant than all others. There must be a lot of apologizing when you are a giant...

Lets just hope she doesn't get impaled by falling spears... I mean people... carrying said spears... who fall do to horrible footing and tremors.

Teen Titans: A New Era

"Now that I have come to learn the more basic structures of the language I can definitely hold a longer conversation," Sirius chuckled back at the silly reaction Jinx was giving to his better communication skills. Thanks to Mina's English lessons Sirius had adjusted better to life with humans, and even more so with the fact he was taught human laws though in truth knowing them was knowing them was one thing expecting the Mana creature to follow all said rules was another thing. Sirius's understanding of Jinx's abilities, however, was not that well constructed.

"But doesn't not using it also bound to have consequences regardless," he asked with a innocent look directed at Jinx's laughter. Then the conversation went in a strange direction to the point Jinx seemed to make herself more uncomfortable then anything else. Sirius gave a weird puffed up cheek look as he walked over to the girl and patted her on the shoulders giving a big goofy grin.

"You still worry to much about yourself... I may not understand this probability of which you control my friend, but it has no control of who your family is, we can indeed counter anything this power of yours randomly throws," Sirius said with a air of confidence as he perked up at the end of Jinx's news much like a excited kid he gave the woman a curious look.

"I only ever saw boats once when I fought Rampage at the Human torch holder statue lady," he said describing the Statue of Liberty in his own words.
