Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

Your shoulders go numb.
Ihra's eyes widen.
"No. No no no no no... You're poisoned too... I..."

She slams her staff on the ground. Energy swirls around it and you start being able to feel the poison leave your body.
"Okay, mother says I should help as many things as possible... but I wanna go home."
The speed of her mood changes is a bit concerning.

"I... I'm sorry I asked."

 

"It's... Not a subject I want to touch on, but don't be sorry. After all, you didn't really ask, now did you?"

 

"Fault is not limited to direct outcomes."
I seem a bit irritated, pace slowing slightly.

 

"Hey, you're not mad that I tagged along, right? Or is it something else?"

 

"If you have a weapon, draw."
My right claws are already on a hilt.

 

"Thank you... Is there any way I can help you?"

 

"I dunno, I just want to be able to fly like mother. She says I'm too young, wings too small. I can fly a little bit, but it's hard."
She realizes how far off track she went, then looks confused, you think because she tried to remember where she was going with that.
"Don't worry about it. Mother says I'll be fine and some day, I'll be strong enough to make my dreams come true. I hope she's right."

 

I hesitate for a second, then draw my Amythest Broadsword.

 

"That's shiny."
An orb falls from the sky, exploding as it hits the ground.
By the time the smoke clears, there's another draconian staring me down.
"You again?" I mutter, drawing a broadsword radiating a white aura.
"Love you too!" She laughs.

 

"Yours seems to be more shiny, but we can compliment each other's blades later. Right now, I'd like to deal with whoever the hell this is." I say while getting into a defensive stance, with my Broadsword held out in front of me with one hand on the hilt, the other supporting the blade.

 

"Of course she's right." I pause "Mothers... are always right."

OCC: I'm gonna go to sleep and wait for Eras to do something before I go on.

 

"You might call both of us demigods."
"He's supposed to be dead, don't listen to him."
"If you can run, now would be a grand time."
"Stay, stay! I love a good slaughter!"
"At least introduce yourself."
"Fine... My name is Feiha, Fragment of Jealousy... And I want that shiny blade of yours!"
"Close enough."
We both step back a few paces before I lunge at Feiha and she charges me, orbs forward.

Noted.

 

"Wait, which shiny one, mine, or... ah, screw it. I love me a good fight, anyways."
I break out of my stance, and instead of lunging at Feiha, I lunge at one of her orbs.

OOC: I have to go to bed in like 10 min

 

In a game of trial and error, this is what they call the error.

The orb explodes the moment you get within melee range, blasting you to the ground.

Both combatants are narrowly dodging spells and blades; it's hard to tell if either is actually landing a hit.

 

The orb may have exploded...

But now there's one less orb.

I check to see if an orb is near Feiha at all.

 

You see a third regenerate as she lobs it as me. I warp behind her, almost landing a hit.

 

I struggle, in thinking about what I know and what I can do.

I wait for the possibility of two orbs coming near each other, and I pick up the nearest stone.

 

I say to Vei, "Yes, I keep forgetting."
Then I say to Ihra, "Uhh... just a few people who do things together."

 

They orbit around her when they're left around her. They cross at a few points, but you're more likey to hit her than the orbs.

"So... Kind of yes. Close enough, I think."
Reflet approaches and Ihra cures her of a poison of sorts.

 

OOC: I didn't base what I said on Reflet and Ihra's conversation before because I was in a rush, can I do that now?
