With all that was happening it wasn't hard for those inside the church to realize that the ones outside had failed to deal with the Circle. There, the hooded one who walked into the church shouted across the church, his voice echoing the building. "Stop then! We can not fail again!" With that being said he raised his hands and knelt down as he placed them on the ground, causing a pulse of darkness to jump through the building like it had done when Ansen touched the door. To those within proximity they felt a very bad shock, but that wasn't the worst of it as the man started forming a magical shield around himself and the one who was chanting something. They were really bent on trying to keep that bubble running as long as possible.
Outside, the pulse went across the town, not bringing it's electric shock with it as wails of the dead villagers and guardsmen sounded the area. Within minutes, arms were shooting up from the ground and half dead humans were rising up. Those who died during the darkness initial raid were now coming back to life, under the dark's spell.
The Cianid squirmed and snarled as he was pinned down until he came to realization that his efforts were futile, especially after Sakura placed some binding on him. He relaxed and glared up at the two, not saying a word. With the mood of combat being tossed aside, one could easily observe how he was.. 'Different' from Ansen. Like Ansen he wore a uniform and had the skills, but he also had some strange pattern imprinted in his fur like the other guards had in their skin, the pattern slowly consuming their whole body in a black color. It was obviously the presence of the darkness that haunted the man they captured, and it sure did it's job. He was like an emotionless pawn, but the question was: Who could be controlling him?
Feress glanced down at Elaine and slowly lowered his guard when the man seemed to no longer have a threatening presence, but his sense of caution immediately returned when the pulse left the building and shot past the group, the Kitsune carefully twirling around as the wails sounded. It took him a moment to realize what was happening, and when he came to his senses his eyes widened and he shouted over to the others. "They're calling forth the dead! The numbers will soon be against us!" And that was when everything started coming from the ground, some of them wielding rusty blades and tools that can be alternatives to a weapon. Feress was quick to react, though, as he did a wave with his staff then swung it across the open field before him. As the weapon was waved, a trail of blue followed the tip, it was when the kitsune made a form of a flash, did it turn out to be a lethal form of energy, the trail turning into a blade that shot out and sliced through many of those getting up near him. He quickly recovered due to the fact it wasn't a costly spell, but he was evidently effected by his attack. "Get ready for a fight!"
