Limbo
Runa the Grey
Location: Limbo
Skills: Intuition
Spells: N/A
Runa felt steady, soft hands grip her own and help her up to her feet. The voice belonged to Madalyne, it seemed that whatever trance(s) she had fallen under had been dispelled. "You did not hurt me, child," Runa said, attempting to reassure her. "I am not as frail as I look." Had she eyeballs left in her sockets, Runa would have winked for dramatic effect. They had not survived the wasteland of their world by being helpless. They had not slain a legion's worth of magicians by being weak.

It took power, skill, and patience to impose one's will on the universe - and even more to ensure that it stuck.

But even now in their old age, they were still surprised. There was a new voice near them, young yet cold, as if someone had made the approximation of a child but had forgotten to give it any heart or feeling. It was a voice they had spent decades hearing, if not longer. And while some things had faded with time, this memory did not. A small smile traced Runa's lips. Their name had already been revealed to those assembled, that danger had past.

Runa reached out a hand in the direction of the voice, beckoning for that person to take it. "You know who I am, Thordattir," Runa said. "I am Baldur's child."

They turned their head, though, in the direction that Witchfire's voice - among others - had come from. "Won't you guide a frail one? I traded my eyes long ago," she then asked Klara.

Annika would successfully turn back to a human, although some avian features were retained - such as talons on her hands and feathers mixed in with her hair.

The Lady Witchfire had returned Carolina's smile, a sweet darkness in her expression - the very sort of almost dreamy horror that as a child had dominated the personality of October Crypt, Carolina's lost love. "I knew you would find me," Witchfire said. Her hands were folded together in front of her, as prim and proper as ever.

Her eyes then flickered over to Jack, a bit of annoyance briefly rippling the surface of her face. "I believe you are acquainted with some of my family, yes," she said. "My father, perhaps. He was a renowned occultist in his day. But my mother was the real power behind the throne."

Witchfire then motioned for everyone to follow her, before sweeping back inside her castle. There was a grand hall, lined with suits of armors and debauched paintings, most of them depicting the corruption or the consumption of the innocent. Stone sconces provided the only source of light, bathing the marble flooring in an eerie yet warm glow. Heavy tapestries hung from the walls. To the right was a spiral staircase, to the left was a door that led down to the dungeon Madalyne and Ananym had been tortured in.

They went straight, as the doors opened up for Witchfire, revealing a grand throne room. It was dominated by a stone throne, with clawed feet and strange archaic symbols. About ten feet in front of the throne was an elegant table, black wood with a grim red table cloth. It was set for tea, although instead of pastries and fruits, there were body parts and knives. The tea glowed a mysterious shade of green, bubbling and almost sounding like it was alive, speaking tongues. The table had been set for nine.

"Please, sit," Witchfire said, before sitting on her throne. The purple demon, Sym, stood by her side, holding a platter of an assortment of items from the main table.

Once everyone was seated, the Lady Witchfire continued. "While I am overjoyed to see you again, my love, I must ask - what brings you all to my realm?"

☀️ Nancy Parker ☀️
Location: Lotus Hotel and Casino
Skills: N/A
Nancy was stuck in her worst nightmare.

She barely registered as someone said they were going off after Zeke - or as the music began to blare at a thunderous volume, drowning out Lady Gaga. Instead, she was locked in a battle of wills (and strength) with a Lotus Hotel and Casino employee. The woman had her pinned, her nails digging into Nancy's neck as she squeezed. Her heart pounded faster and faster as she fought for breath, pulling at the woman's arms in an attempt to dislodge them. Her blood ran ice cold as the woman welcomed her home. A giant shudder overcame her body as she shook involuntarily, disgusted at the idea that this place could be her home - and horrified by how on some level... that statement rang true. She had spent the majority of her life in this place. And the horrific events that happened here continued to shape her to this day.

Then Kristin beat her attacker over the head with a tray.

Nancy gasped for air, her throat bruised to hell and she could already tell that her vocal cords were hoarse. Not ideal, for a demigod with magical singing powers, but she could make it work. She let her head hit the ground for a moment, as Nancy coughed, before she slowly scrambled up to her feet. Janelle had brought back Zeke. Good. "I'm fine," Nancy told Zeke, her voice sounding like a smoker's. "You?" Her panic had subsided, since he was back here and fine, but then - shit, his boyfriend wasn't there. "Where the hell is Demetri?"

Megan Pendragon
Location: Maleficent's Gates
Skills: N/A
The fight was chaotic, but that was to be expected. Two armies were facing off against each other. Megan felt a little silly for a brief moment, as she heard the roars from up above and she glanced upwards, seeing a dragon. She had never been particularly into Game of Thrones, but she had heard enough about it to be familiar with one concept - that cities burned and innocents died when dragons rode to war. They were the ultimate weapon. And all around her, other acts of magic occurred - Gabriella raised the dead, her brother sent fireballs slamming into Maleficent's weapons.

Megan had a sword.

Other people might have felt self conscious, insignificant, inadequate, or so forth. But Megan loved swordplay. She always had, no matter what world she was in. And bizarrely, this world was one where a sword could make a difference - where magic was not required to take on a titan. So she kept on fighting, feeling more and more like a black knight with each passing moment.

Momchil was still out for the count, as was Sveva. That left then Jyoti, Rada, and Abby. The heroes were finding themselves with their backs pressed to the walls a bit, and Rada decided it was time to take off the kid gloves. She had only demonstrated one of her powers so far. Well, one application of them really. And with her bestie unconscious and Momchil no help, it was time to show a far more serious one.

The Valkyrie had tried to attack her with her sword, and missed, but it meant she was the closest opponent. Rada also heard how Leah clearly unhinged about Vicky potentially being in danger, so Rada exploited that. "A sword-fight? Cool, let me get my sword," she said. She reached out with her hand and the next thing Vicky knew, she was being pulled across the room to Rada. Vicky would try to do her hand-to-hand, but her suit had been immobilized.

"Swing!" Rada shouted, before swinging her arms like she was trying to hit a baseball. Vicky then went colliding into Zari, Zari would manage to block with her sword however. Vicky would end up hitting the ground. The very ground that, thanks to Leah's manipulations, was ever so sticky. It wasn't quite quicksand just yet, more like slightly dried mud, but it was enough to slow down most people's movements.

Abby, meanwhile, was trying to siphon some power from anything they could. Despite Leah's warnings, they had every intention of sucking power away from Vicky's suit, but the pain from the nearly cracked ribs was distracting. They couldn't quite get a lock onto Vicky. Consequently then, no alarms were sounding off.

Jyoti had made it all the way to the end-zone now - the earth cage that surrounded the hostage. It helped when you could fly and command the weather, there was no need for her to touch the ground. As she arrived, she frowned, narrowing her eyes at the strange devices all over the cage. And then she locked eyes with Arcade. "Hey, you! What are these?"

"Uh... A bagel?" Arcade wheezed, still in a lot of pain from both Vicky and Leah and Abby slamming into him not too long ago.

Jyoti's eyes narrowed. Lightning struck the ground, just inches away from Arcade. "Try again."
April Flynn
Location: Gym - Training Room C
Skills: Hydrokinesis
In the pool, April was finally getting the upper hand. Most of the locks and whatnot they were taught at the academy applied to people with a standard number and assortment of appendages, but there were a few that she found worked excellently on a selkie. She had twisted Enya's arms behind her back in such a way that any application of pressure caused extreme pain. And with her opponent temporarily immobilized, April kicked their way up to the surface, dragging Enya along.

The two broke up above the water, and April instinctively gasped for air. "Fudding hell," she cursed. Her nose was definitely broken. And it burned from the chlorine of the pool. She tried to get a glimpse of what was going on all around them, but she was having a hard time understanding it all. It looked like Gideon and Andy were teaming up and.... she didn't know how to describe what was going on with Mary Sue.

Not that she had much time to think about it, as Enya took advantage of her momentary distraction and broke free from April's bind.

Meanwhile, Megan was twitching slightly from the electric shock that Andy had given her - but by the gods, the freak seemed to enjoy it. "Harder, next time," Megan requested with a smirk. Gideon of course was more than happy to oblige, restarting the sword fight before Megan had even gotten back up to her feet. She didn't even seem to really recognize that Andy was still there, so obsessed with attacking her target.

Then, there was the group with the golem. Michaela had a firm hold of it, despite the eyepatch covering her eye or the chain around her leg connecting her to Mary Sue. Mads' shield spell formed like a bubble layer around the hostage. Michaela frowned, clenching her hands tighter on the shield. It was like the shield was suddenly hit with a huge influx of energy, but somehow, it was still holding. "This won't stop us from saving the day - we're heroes, you're villains, and villains always lose," Michaela declared.

Theda still had Mary Sue in a strong lock. If she had been able to speak, she would've just used her voice to force Mary Sue to drop the constructs. Instead, she went for something more violent. She had one hand holding onto Mary Sue, and with her free hand, she struck Mary Sue in the back of the head, aiming to knock the other girl unconscious. Mary Sue would see stars, it would hurt, but she wouldn't black out.

Percy Novikov
Location: Gym - Training Room A
Skills: N/A
Percy grinned slightly, hearing Dorian's familiar accent coming out of Arsène's mouth. He was standing next to Sabine, safely behind the force field, but not within the fire circle, where Danni and the hostage were. For Danni to adjust his position when Sabine took down the force field, he'd have to mess with the fire circle as well. And right before Percy could teleport out of the circle, he watched with wide eyes as some friendly fire happened - as Zelda's golem sent Arsène/Dorian flying backwards.

Percy's grin vanished. "I'm surrounded by morons," he hissed.

Sabine had made some mental edits, including one to Arsène, but as Dorian was still inhabiting Arsène's body, the effect has not yet taken hold. However, Sabine had dove into Salah's mind, and convinced them to essentially feel like giving up and quitting. They didn't want to be doing this anyways. Salah huffed, taking another look at the golem, before deciding it wasn't worth it and they started to walk away to the other side of the room.

"What the hell!" Paul shouted. "Em, stop them!"

"On it!" Emily said brightly. Sorry, do you mind holding for one sec? Emily whispered in Zelda's mind. They turned their attention towards Salah then, diving in and trying to figure out what was happening. She wasn't an amazing telepath, but she could do a few things, and she set to work trying to undo Sabine's mental tampering.

Xènia, of course, was still unconscious.

Limbo
We know who Witchfire is, duh!! Mercymorn butts in. You may have been just asking Carolina and Klara, Jack, but clearly Mercymorn and Butter Rum are not beyond chiming in, especially if it could be helpful. They live in Limbo after all. The rest of you are tourists.

And Belasco, yikes, the creep, Mercymorn then adds.

But he's been gone for ages, Butter Rum says. Magik banished him.

Mercymorn whinnies slightly. She's hardly any better. When's the last time you saw her around? Never!!

The skeletal horses move quickly - either that or the landscape of Limbo seemed to compress. It would not be long until you found yourselves riding up a steep slope, leading to a castle on a cliffside. The sound of battle roars from above, as demons assault figures in strange red cloaks...

Friends of yours? Butter Rum asks.
Runa the Grey
Location: Limbo
Skills: Intuition
Spells: N/A
With each invocation of holy words, the pain rippled through Runa once more - just as it would spasm through Prudence, Annika, Madalyne, and Max. They gripped their staff a little tighter, using it as leverage as they attempted to stand from where they had collapsed on the ground. They could sense the battle swirling all around them, they could hear the cry of the demons as they attacked, but the sounds were quieter now. The hoard was almost beaten back. That is, until a fresh wave would be sent after them. Limbo had no end to their supply of demons, it seemed.

"They will fight us forever if we allow them to, we need another way," Runa urged. Their voice was sore and quiet, low enough that it would easily be lost in the cacophony. More invocations would likely kill them and others as well. She did not mention that part.

However, the fighting then suddenly ceased, as the horn blew twice. Runa strained her hearing. Although she could not see, she heard as the doors to the castle opened.

"Stop!" a loud voice called out. Those who could see would see a cruel purple horned demon, Sym. "The lady Witchfire invites you all for tea," Sym then growled.

Again, while Runa could not see, the others would spot to his side a blonde haired woman dressed all in black. "I do hope you'll accept my invitation."

Runa frowned. They felt uneasy. "Madalyne, you are no longer bound to me," they said. The spell placed on Mads would break - her mind would be her own once more. She only hoped that they demon child was not as feral as she had been at first meeting.

Guin Stark
Location: Asteroid M
Skills: Telepathy
~Fit Check~
Guin was speechless, something that didn't come naturally to her. Magneto had removed his helmet - the very device that kept her or any other telepath from being able to enter his mind. She could hijack his body, she could violate him in every way that she could think of, she could erase every aspect of his being and leave him an empty vessel. He had removed the main barrier keeping her from murdering the person that he was. She almost thought it was a sign of trust, but she dismissed that idea. It didn't make sense for Magneto. The person who removed his helmet didn't match up with the father-in-law she knew, the one who tried to kill humans and abused his child.

She silently put a finger to the side of her head, and she entered Magneto's mind.

"He's telling the truth," Guin determined. "About all of it. He doesn't mean us harm...yet." Even having been inside his head and seeing what Magneto believed to be real, Guin was hesitant. Maybe the memories had been falsified somehow. Or even if everything was correct, Magneto could change his mind and decide to kill them all. She was about to say more, to ask that Magneto - as a show of good faith - leave the helmet off for the rest of this little adventure, when she heard the sound of roaring water.

She turned her head quickly, seeing a gushing onslaught coming towards them, only for it to be cut off by metal doors sealing shut. "Fucking hell," Guin cursed. "You sure this place is space worthy, Erik?"
Neil Spellman
Location: the Asteroid
Skills: N/A
~Fit Check~
Ironically given the circumstances, Neil felt lighter than ever before. Sure, they were pleased to see that it seemed like Magneto was telling the truth and they'd all be able to leave, but that wasn't what had filled them up with a newfound buoyancy. No, in this weird metal crucible of a Star Wars space station, they had finally understood a little bit more about themselves. As they turned their head to hear the roaring wave of water coming towards them, Neil reflexively held their hand out, about to use their telekinesis to stop it - only for metal doors to instead slide shut, cutting it off mostly. The doors didn't seem to be air tight, an issue for another time given that they were in space, as water was slowly trickling on through them.

"I don't think it is," Neil said, to Guin's question.

They then looked behind them, seeing that there were still options. The way they had come from looked okay. And from what they remembered, there had been doors and a branching hallway, so they'd have some choices to make. But if there was one thing they knew, they couldn't just stand here and stare at the water. "We should move, before something else goes wrong," Neil suggested, before turning and going back the way they had come from.

Ed was really hoping that this would all be over soon. He glanced at the clock on the wall, but found that the lighting was too poor for him to make it out. He didn't think to include a watch in his superhero get-up, but maybe that'd need to be an improvement for the future. He was, of course, perfectly content to hang back with the hostage while the others did the heavy lifting. It was his strategy in almost every physical activity.

Momchil was still out cold, but no one had made any move to move them. There was a possibility they'd wake up before time had elapsed, after all.

Sveva and Rada were both dazzled, seeing spots in their vision thanks to Vicky's high intensity spotlight. Diana's arrows had set off a net around Rada, the steel girl tripping to the ground and flailing about, trying to get free. Sveva instead just got a nasty bruise on her chest, from the blunt force of the failed arrow hitting her. "Hold still!" Sveva shouted, blinking a few times before activating her eye beams. She knew she didn't have any real risk of hurting Rada, as long as Rada was in her steel form, but she tried to be careful anyways.

Her control was perfect, her moves precise, and her laser beams burned away the net ensnaring Rada.

Rada then charged into the hole she and Sveva had been working on earlier, throwing all of her might against it. Leah was doing her best to maintain the structural integrity of it, but so many assaults at once was difficult to parse. Sveva joined her eye beams to another spot, Abby rammed with electricity flickering all around them. Three different potential breach points. Once again, Abby was the only one who was victorious - and rather than dramatically monologue, Abby ran through.

Their supply of electricity they'd consumed was beginning to run low though, and instinctively, their gaze narrowed in on Vicky. "Yum," they said with a grin.

Up in the sky, Jyoti was doing her very best not to fall to her death. Her concentration had been shaken, the lightning briefly ceasing, as she struggled to stabilize herself. She managed to do so at the last second, slowly her descent enough to minimize the pain as she hit the ground. She saw that Abby had made it on through, and given the numbers disadvantage, Jyoti did the first thing that came to mind.

"Wind!" Jyoti shouted. Maybe it was the extra adrenaline pumping through her veins, but she executed her move perfectly. A GIGANTIC gust of wind shot from out of nowhere, blowing the opposing team back towards the hostage. Vicky, Leah, and Arcade were all blown into the back wall. Diana fell off of Leah's earth wall, towards her team's side. Mr. Sparkles lost control, flying into the back wall, neighing in distress.

Unfortunately for Jyoti, Abby was sent flying as well - Abby crashed into Vicky, Ed, and Leah.

Sveva and Rada took advantage of the chaos, and charged on through the hole that Abby made.
April Flynn
Location: Gym - Training Room C
Skills: Hydrokinesis
April gasped for air instinctively, water filling her lungs. From a distant, logical perspective, she knew this wasn't ideal... But somehow, she felt fine. She felt like she was breathing. She should have been drowning, struggling for breath, and yet she was breathing easily - as easily as she could be when fighting a seal-creature. Her opponent she recognized as a selkie, a variant on the classical mermaid. She knew that they were Celtic creatures, people with seals for the bottom half, but... That was about where her knowledge began and ended.

It didn't help either that Enya was thrashing April underneath the water. She tried to force the water to shoot upwards, to spring them both from the pool, but April couldn't move her hands. She needed that physical connection, that physical movement, in order to control the water around them. Instead, Enya managed to shove her closer and closer to the bottom of the pool.

April tried then the only option available to her. She threw her head forward, hoping to stun Enya and get free. Instead, her nose collided with Enya's face and there was a sickening CRACK! Blood began to flow, drifting upwards in a red cloud around the two of them.

Enya narrowed her eyes, as if to say gross.

Meanwhile, Megan and Gideon were still locked in swordplay. It was a masterclass in fighting techniques and skills. At one moment, Megan held her sword to Gideon's neck - the next moment, Gideon was somehow on top of Megan, a sword to Megan's chest. The dance continued, over and over again. They had to get tired eventually - right? "I guess you just like to watch, huh?" Gideon baited Andy.

Nefekare let out a scream of frustration. "Fucking melt already, you stupid ice!!!!!!!"

That left then, of course, Theda and Michaela. Michaela had almost broken through the dome by the time Mary Sue got to her. An eyepatch had manifested itself onto one of her eyes, blocking her sight - her sight on this plane, at least. The force that fueled her was not of any sentient species known to the galaxy. She saw with more than just eyes. It was easy then to dodge Mary Sue's punch.

"Thanos spawn," Michaela whispered, her voice strangely echoing. "You will disappoint those you love." She then turned and brought down her hand against the dome. It shattered. The hostage golem was then revealed. Theda grabbed Mary Sue from behind, putting her into one of the wrist locks they were taught at the school, as Michaela grabbed the hostage.

Inside her mind, or the astral plane, or wherever the person possessed by Dorian perceives themselves to be, Xènia was fighting to regain control. However, she had little experience with being the one under sway - she was typically the one doing it to other people. Her efforts to free herself were relatively feeble and weak, easily brushed aside by Dorian, as he managed to continue the possession with ease. However, the same could not be said for Dorian's continuation of the siren's song.

Arsène was staring at Dorian/Xènia with clouded eyes of adoration. He was nodding eagerly at the idea of fighting Salah, of proving his worth against theirs. But then, Arsène's eyes cleared. His mind was his own again. His hands were still grasping Dorian/Xènia's feet. That made things easier. His eyes glowed red as he drained Dorian/Xènia dry of energy, almost to the brink of death, but not quite. That would've been against the rules, after all.

As Dorian/Xènia collapsed, Arsène made an executive decision, shuttling the energy over to Paul. The tall boy stirred, suddenly alert and conscious again, fueled with the energy of almost two extra lives. Things were not looking good for Excelsior. Arsène and Paul both ran towards the hostage, seeing that Salah had been going on the assault. Emily joined them. The entire team was closing in.

Percy's eye twitched. Danni didn't even seem to realize he had almost set him on fire, all in his stupid stunt to make a fire circle. Percy didn't support a mutant cure, but maybe some version of it would be good for Danni. He was a walking disaster, just waiting to burn someone alive and not even notice it had happened. "We are going to have a chat later," Percy growled.

Sabine had rushed on over, pulling out her replica She-Ra sword. She slammed it into the ground, and a forcefield formed in a dome around it. It encapsulated the hostage and Danni, and the fire circle, and then Percy and Sabine. Salah was on the outside of it - as were the rapidly approaching other members of the team. Including Paul. Whose spear Percy still had. Damn it.

"Where the hell is Dorian?" Percy then muttered, noticing that he didn't see his boyfriend or the siren.

A creature of legend - a stone golem. As a young Jewish boy, he always felt a little bit emotional when he heard about golems. Seeing one in person was something entirely different. For a moment, he was stunned speechless - and then the golem swung, knocking Salah back at least half a dozen feet or more, their head colliding with the ground.

The lights in the room began to dim. Salah, in an attempt to heal themselves and regain some strength, had started to absorb it - scooping it up with their hands somehow and popping it into their mouth. With each bite, the room was a little darker, a little colder - the light was dim now.

Arsène started to siphon energy from the golem - it helped that it was a construct made of (emotional) energy. Percy's form flickered as he reappeared behind Arsène, and he swung at the back of his head with Paul's spear. Unfortunately, Arsène ducked down, causing Percy's blow to miss.

"I think that belongs to me!" Paul snapped, rushing Percy and trying to grab his spear back, only for Percy's form to flicker and reappear next to Sabine.

Emily, meanwhile, had shut her eyes. She couldn't see where Zelda was, but she could feel her mind. Her telepathic specialty was in giving people slow-mo goggles, but she could do other things. She slid into Zelda's mind with ease, whispering - You're a worthless failure. No one even wants you around.

Mercymorn rolled her eyes - or rather, the motion she was trying to make did suggest that she was rolling her eyes. She didn't have eyes. Just sockets. I was here before you, I know what's going on!!! Mercymorn protested.

You do? Butter Rum then asked. Because I wasn't super following... they admitted sheepishly.

Mercymorn made the same eye roll like motion again, as if to say 'see what I have to put up with?'

Carolina wouldn't manage to find the Chariot - the Green Eyed One must've stashed it somewhere else. However, there are saddles - also made from human skin, but what are you supposed to do? Not use it? Klara managed to get up onto Butter Rum, who had already been saddled up. Mercymorn's saddle will need to be put onto her.

With the Green Eyed One gone, we can get you out of the maze, easy, Butter Rum agreed.

Are you sure you want to go to Witchfire, though? She's as crazy as her dad, Mercymorn said. Mercymorn bent down slightly, to make it easy for Carolina and Jack to hop on, with or without a saddle.

I heard she eats her own toes! Butter Rum added, whinnying nervously.
Runa the Grey
Location: Limbo
Skills: Intuition
Spells: Elder Futhark Runes
Runa paused for a moment, hearing the name Madelyne screamed beside her. She had not been to Limbo before - if she had ever been, she had long since forgotten the occasion - but even then she knew the connection between Madelyne and Limbo. They had been a child on the first Goblin Night when Madelyne Pryor had attempted to end the world. They hadn't done anything about it, merely watching and observing. It had been in the days when she had been convinced her destiny was to bring about darkness and misery. It had been ages later that Runa realized the universe was perfectly equipped to do so without her help.

They had blocked the first few blows with their staff. While they were blind, they were not defenseless. They had mastered the staff before their sight had failed them, and they had spent eons perfecting their technique after they lost it. It also helped that the demon attacking her - this "Madelyne" - was considerably noisy.

Runa drew a rune from her back - īsaz - and was about to press it into the demon attacking her when Prudence announced she had ensnared Madelyne's mind, and given ownership of it to Runa. Annika had already pleaded that Madelyne was under an enchantment. Runa assumed that Annika must have met Madelyne earlier in Limbo. Perhaps the demon had been pretending - perhaps not. Either way, Runa was wary to relinquish control.

They knew that a hero would release Madelyne.

"Child, help us," Runa instructed instead. Annika had specified that Holy Words and relics and whatnot would prove effective against these demons. Runa let the rune for ice slip from their fingers, falling back into the bag. Instead, they drew another one, feeling the stone pieces and the carving. ansuz. The rune of their grandfather - the All-Father Odin.

They held the rune in their palm, hand outstretched.

"Hei Odhinn, Herre av Asgard,
Kriger og vandrer, tapper og vis,
Du som alle Asgards guder ser på,
Himmelfar på den åttebeinte hesten,
Du som byttet øye med visdom
Og styrte et turbulent rike,
Gi oss visdom til å akseptere
Skjebnens vendinger
Selv om du overga deg selv
Til nornenes nåde.
Beskytt oss, All-Fader,
Fra hvilken skade kan komme til oss.
Led oss ​​gjennom villmarken
Og bringe oss trygt til den store salen
At du kun reserverer for de modige i ånden."


With each line, the rune began to glow brighter. By the time Runa reached the end of the prayer, of the invocation of Odin, it was blinding. To an infernal creature, it would be unbearable - it would be like bathing in the core of the sun, every atom of their being threatened to be consumed. But it would not only be the demons who were screaming.

The empty sockets that once contained Runa's eyes were streaming with fresh blood, an unsettling black goop.

Prudence would feel the flames burning within her soul. As would Madalyne. And Annika. And Max.

When the glow of the spell faded, the pain remained. Most of the demons that had been assaulting them were petrified. Runa collapsed to her knees, every inch of her body aching and crying out for relief. They imagined that they were falling into a dark pool, drowning, gasping for air but only managing to fill their lungs with water.

A horn sounded. The front gate of the castle opened. The next wave of demons emerged.

Megan nodded, as Gabriella went through the portal. She admired the deliciously macabre view, as Gabriella raised her army of the dead. It was the sweetest sight she had ever seen before. In many ways, it reminded her of a book series she quite enjoyed - the Locked Tomb trilogy. She could have watched Gabriella work her magics for hours. But she tore her gaze away. Lancelot was insisting on providing aid to the wounded. "If you perish, I did warn you," Megan settled on. She turned her gaze to where Jack was. She hadn't spoken with her brother much that day. She gave him a curt nod.

And then Megan went on through the portal. On the other side, Maleficent's castle was ahead. The drawbridge had been pulled. An army stood at the castle's defense. Catapults sent boulders flying through the sky. Megan drew excalibur from its sheath, feeling every bit the knight she could become. And she joined the fray. It was like she had been born to this, as she took down grunt after grunt with relative ease, taking on no injuries herself. The sword felt like a natural extension of herself. It was the most exhilarating dance of life and death.

☀️ Nancy Parker ☀️
Location: Lotus Hotel and Casino
Skills: N/A
It looked almost exactly the same as the day she had left. There were a few new games and whatnot, but the overall layout was largely the same. Her body trembled in realization. For a brief moment, she wondered if she had never actually left - if the last few years had been a vivid hallucination, an attempt at escape. This place felt like it had a grip on her soul, an intense gravity that she was helpless against. Her heart was screaming at her to run, to get out, to abandon this ridiculous quest and let someone else sort it out. The terrified, frozen indecision was written plainly across her face.

But she had already failed in the most crucial aspect of this quest. A woman had approached, holding a tray of those Lotus cookies. Nancy had been frozen. She didn't act in time. Zeke took one of the cookies and happily ate it, and she could see the way his eyes glazed over, the way the spell consumed him. Tears welled up in her eyes as her entire body trembled. It felt like she was watching it happen all over again. She felt like she was watching herself as a young girl, walking into the jaws of a predator.

"No!" Nancy cried desperately, an intense need and ache in her voice, as if she were begging with the Fates themselves. She could see others reaching for the cookie. "Someone, go stop Zeke!" Nancy shouted. She tried to knock the tray of cookies out of the employee's hand, so she could crush them under her feet, but the woman instead did a pirouette and offered one to Demi. Nancy's heart was beating intensely and her ears felt like they were full of cotton, as she threw her entire body weight into the employee, knocking her down to the ground.

Nancy tried to bash the woman's head against the ground, her fight or flight instinct kicked into overdrive and settling firmly on murder. "Don't eat it, please!" Nancy really meant don't leave me alone in here. The employee though was stronger than she looked, and the two of them were soon locked into a struggle, the tray of cookies abandoned on the floor nearby... "Zeke!!"
