@Cuccoruler"I don't know about the dragon. It might have overreacted, but it is trying to protect the humans. I think a warning with a just punishment would be fine for now. Something like taking away the same number of humans as mortals that it killed. If it does something like this again, then it should certainly be killed." @BananaJust then a new goddess came into the Nexus. She introduced herself as Xoxi, and that she made a thing. He wasn't sure what that thing was at first, but then some sort of strange mouse began running around and perched itself on her head. She also seemed very interested in Cia. The way she greeted her seemed weird and flirtatious. Landon wasn't sure how he felt about this. He didn't have much time to think of it before he felt something terrible.
@Ace of flames01The Tari were enjoying another nice day, building houses and carefully harvesting plantoids. Suddenly a loud screech broke out through the chill wind. Many more followed as the Tari noticed a wave of vile creatures charging their village. The Tari quickly prepared to defend themselves, grabbing their spears and swords and releasing their akhluts to slow their advance. Some of the Tari cried out for Landon to come help, while all were praying under their breath for protection. Their prayers weren't unheard.
As Landon was about to introduce himself to Xoxi, he heard the first prayers. His mind reeled for a moment hoping if this was a small incident but a wave of prayers came and continued in his mind. Something was seriously wrong. He was becoming angry, not even sure what was going on yet, but whever it was that was making his people cry out like this would pay. His arm quickly formed as dark energy coursed wildly through it. His whole body was covered next making him look like a humanoid mass of visciously swirling ice. He took a step past the two goddesses as he disappeared into a dark hole. His next step emerged into the arctic circle on the edge of the Tari's village. He saw them fighting off strange beasts. Both sides had suffered several casualties. Landon saw several of the beasts on the cities edge fighting Tari warriors. He instantly shot twelve massive icicles that came from his hand like fingers. As the strange beasts were instantly impaled he ordered the warriors to clear out what few beasts had made it to the village. He would hold off the line for anymore to enter.
He looked out over the empty ice and saw the swarm of disgusting creatures coming towards the village. He touched his hand to the ground and instantly a solid wall of black ice surrounded the village. The floor of the village was also solidified as well. The only way in was by going over the wall. He didn't care about the beings that invaded the arctic circle. The gods had made their races, but an assault of this level wasn't of their own doing. Something else was at play in this attack. He looked again over the tundra and saw something else amongst the monsters. A different being, not disgusting at all, in fact quite beautiful. Landon probably would have taken note of this, except his rage fueled only a desire to end whoever started this. Landon began walking across the tundra towards her completely ignoring the monsters. If any of the beasts touched him, he froze them with such a severe frost that they shattered upon hitting the ground or even toppling over.
