Elle
As the conversation moved on Elle took a couple steps back and sat down on a large chunk of rubble, leaning back onto her palms. Bob...Karen, seemed to merely be rambling to eachother which Elle simply passed over, idly responding to Morph ”Those're three things ya wouldn’t describe most thieves as so you might fit in just fine.” She said before Morph began to address the previously bickering BobKaren. As it responded Elle noted the several small wisps which leaked out then were quickly swept back up, accompanied by a faint energy which made her skin quiver slightly. After listening to the little speech Elle interrupted with a light groan, ruffling her own hair before leaning forward and setting her chin into her hand, her elbow now sat on her leg.
”Times like this people spout off about plenty of crap.” The girl waved her hand dismissively as she continued. ”Queen, heart of the world, all sounds absurd to me. People'll say anything to get ya on their side. If ya don't get with 'em then you get the pitchfork.” Elle shook her head a bit before noting yet another approaching presence, this one exhibiting yet another strangely...different feeling. One of her eyes slowly opened half way, turning unfocused in the direction of the woman who had come around the corner before closing again.
”Are all the wanderers hangin' out around here today? If you're lookin' for any sort of food or decent shelter you wont find it here, better off headin' for one of the towns if thats what ya wanna ask.” Elle called out while bringing herself back to her feet. Those sort of questions seemed fairly common when meeting someone simply wandering about. However with the situation at hand she would have been surprised if that was what the person had in mind.
The world
The heartless continued to rush towards the former pillar of light with a single minded determination. Fortunately for any near by the mass of darkness was fixated on much larger pray to be bothered with a single person. However anyone foolish enough to be caught in their path would be ran down and swept up without pause. Quickly the heartless reached the bridge connected to the newly formed lake. As they arrived the swarm of heartless began to break off from one another and spread about the area, attacking the creatures of light which continued to form and retaliate just as fiercely as their attackers came at them.
The battle between heartless and fractured continued for several moments before the distinct sound of fingers snapping echoed faintly through the near by area. Moments later a third type of creature emerged between the already battling forces. Strange gray creatures with jerky movements, many of which emerged from paper thin cracks before fully forming and wedging themselves between the clashing light and darkness. Though fewer in numbers the creatures moved with swift and deliberate action to both thin the numbers of the other forces and push them from one another. Soon the swarm of heartless was mostly spread about the areas outskirts while the fractured lingered about the floating lake.
The new gray creatures themselves stayed scattered about the area for several minuets before quietly receding when the numbers of heartless were sufficiently quelled. Though despite this interference, for any normal person the area would still be crawling with enemies.
