[PP-F23] The Spire Churns (PEV - Thread #1)

[Raidou 1]

A message rings out through the ether, from a man surrounded by a myriad of creatures, adorning sprouted red crystals from necks like blemishes. Sundered Spire still going strong and yet, had been sniffed out. He was sure that beneath these insistent and thick waves that there lie the heart of the matter, but he could not do this alone. Through the guild chat, a call to arms that comes as an abrupt disturbance to many. An army he'd face so an army he'd bring. These hounds would face steel no different from before, grown with efforts all their own. As a screech and outcry bleeds out in a way that forces the ground to tremble under its might, a thickened fog of red begins to ooze out of the red clad swordsman. Drawing a blackened edge from his back, under a fogged and darkened sky: The Vale of Ruin, to a tower on the horizon with a glimmer of the same pungent light that commanded such forces. Storming the tower and taking the head seemed an ample choice.

A shower of sparks as he stops the first set of weapons, of many, the whole of those that would heed the call would face.

From every direction, slinking shadows converged upon the Red Wanderer's position.  Scouring the countryside like a seeker's plague, they whispered their way forward in search of their long-elusive prey.  Soon, they surrounded those that had sought to encircle his fellow captain.  One of the shadows, as featureless as the rest, spoke.  

"Don't they realize that they're outnumbered?  And that's before you even count all of the me's."  A low chuckle followed.  Freyd was in his element, hot on the trail of a foe he had chased from one end of the flying castle to the other, then back again. 

"She's come home.  How fitting."  Memories flashed within of a symbol - a lily - shown to him by Fonsa during his last foray into these blasted lands.  The flower had become infected, turned crimson by the hateful mineral blight that lingered still, somehow.  

"If she's bold enough to make such an open return, then she may actually be prepared to make a stand."  His mood turned serious as his cowl turned towards the spire, Freyd's form emerging from one of his many duplicates.  "This won't be easy."

Sparing a moment, he wiped a fine layer of ash from him black clothing.  

"Dangit!  You'd think they'd at least dust before having guests over."

A glimmer and a sea of frost sees the one assailing the red swordsman clipped in twain, two pieces frozen solid cascading into the soot like shrapnel. A glance back to the orange haired female that played her opposite, who was spinning the head of another in this opposing army. "We take her and it's over." Setsuna spoke with a cold bite, eyeing the tower with still illuminated eyes. An O&I task if there ever was one, but the field spoke to needing as many bodies keeping the rest of her forces contained and from intervening. A twist of her frame sees the girl eye the opposition, a multitude of monsters taken hostage and into forced servitude. Slaves made for a poorly controlled army.

A twist of her body sees it begin to flicker, drawing a bit of a katana on her hip sees fog billow and create more for her to hide in. A murmur beneath her breath toward the rest of her compatriots that waited aloft in the dark. "On Freyd's command, I will storm the tower for whatever is moving the strings. Will you have this handled in my absence?" To an array of girls playing the part of shadow.

A hand placed on Gaius shoulder "I'll meet you on the flip side, go kick some ass," she says with a grin as they peal out into their groups. Meeting Freyd's side with Rai not far behind. "Dusting requires effort and mobs these days don't show a lot of that." The grin get wider as the entirety of the guild was entering the location in all different directions. "They really won't know what hit them," Freya knew that this was going to be a huge slaughter fest for the enemy line. She knew that everyone in there own way has gotten stronger and they would all survive this. Taking out her scythe now, glancing around to the open surroundings, she began to get a game face on. Starting to focus on what they were about to walk into. On the flip side though she was hoping to god if her even existed that there was no PST moment. She really would mind the shift but she really rather keep control. No fear...

Chaos swirled around them, a maelstrom of battle with beacons of light clustered about the field.  Each of those nodes was a member of Firm Anima, glaringly bright in contrast to the crawling carpet of mobs converging on them from every direction.  One airborne critter hurtled towards his head, launched by Gaius.  Leaping upward, Freyd spun mid-air and snared the mob's tattered clothes with the end of his staff.  Momentum carried the motion through and whipped the poor, wayward mob in a new direction.  It crashed like a meteor, bowling over a dozen nearby kin and skipping like a stone across water.  A cascade of pixeled clouds tore across the grand melee, clearing a wide swath.

Landing with cat-like grace, he turned to Simmone.  "Yup.  Definitely overestimated.  Do be a dear and drill the message into them, won't you?"  A quick shift of his eyes to her rapier conveyed his intent, knowing full well that she would approve.  He'd already seen how effective her specialized AoEs could be during their recent foray into the Black Iron Dungeon.

"We are about to destroy this place."

Freyd couldn't agree more.  "It was nice of them to start the process," he added, gesturing to the ruined landscape and fractured elven architecture, hints of lost elegance poking up from ashen fields pile his with swales of dust and detritus.  "But I agree.  We should show them how to finish it."

A figure danced nearby, her poise familiar but not the garb.  Was that, Kasumi?!

Mist swirled around his fingertips, fingers splayed on the ground to spread and soften the load of his landing. Frigidly familiar, a smile crept across his covered face as the comforting sensation of his little 'sister' proximity came into play.  As much as the sensation carried mortal danger for most who felt its chill, he had long ago learned to place his faith in it.  

On either side of his fellow captain, the twins had gathered.  Golden-haired icons, both exuded strength that had blossomed in recent months.  Eruda, standing tall and proud, had become a bastion of determination so far beyond the uncertain figure he'd first met at Raidou's side.  Now, there was fire in her eyes, and just about everywhere else about her.  Her passions drove her forward, and had earned his respect.   Standing counterpoint, her sister clad in black annealed with newfound confidence and fortified by trials of spirit.  Freya's challenges had mirrored his own, in may ways, and he admired her drive to endure and overcome them.  She, too, had heart.  Both had more in common than they realized.

"There's our path," Freyd called to Raidou.  "Lun'Rael will be in her tower. But these cretins are respawning too quickly.  Some will need to remain here to keep the exit clear.  This tower has a bad habit of exploding, and we all know that teleportation crystals may not be reliable once we get inside."  A quick survey of his colleagues forced the echo of a promise to surface.  Give them hope.

"No one falls, or gets left behind."

A nod wasn't even required.  He and Rai were inherently in sync, even as they both strode forward unto the breach.

Tearing through the spire controlled beast Celeste was dealing with sees the red head stir, a single cut clean before slicing through two in immediate proximity. A katana slowly finds its shelter and clicks shut. "Understood." The silvered haired woman responds with a hand hovering a blade, and a single vorpal swing cleaves her way through three before taking to a sprint. One weapon begins to scream in her direction, and ripping that edge out shows a flash of light and like a cloud of smoke she disappears in a blink of an eye. All before a massive cleaver crushes it flat through that vapor, twisting her head around as she vanishes into the mist to see Sam, monsters one after another being reduced to ash and Freyd just off her side. They'd wade through this lot to the heart, and cut it out. "All too easy." Came that venomous chill to her voice, as copies of the girl begin to spread out and create more statues of ice.

Freya's group was moving without her. A swift turn as enemies in every which direction surrounding her. Closing her eyes for only a split second before saying "No Fear," her eyes flash open as she see Lilac peddle droping like snow above her. Freya slices through one before seeing a blink and a hand through an enemy beside her. A grin meets the eyes of Kasumi, but they shift to something behind her. Quickly placing her scythes head on the ground and jumping, forward on onto a spire, with her foot on its chest against the ground. A downward swipe as the head goes rolling. A glance back to Kasumi as all the things that were surround her where no longer living. "Thanks," she says with a nod as she starts to charge her way through to her group. Slightly turning back as peddles are left in her place. Her scythe bleeds black ooze as she helps take down the big dudes in the field.

Ripping clean, a black blade, that vibrates with a deep red. "Eruda, take care of them." he remarks under his breath, looking at Freyd. "Now we end this." Freyd opens and soon after you catch remnants of the others pushing so drastically through the army with ease, a vision made real as data begins to fill the air. His feet slide, his heels arch and at blinding speeds Raidou rips through the field slamming his blade into another waiting to hold them back. The weapon shatters, and he pivots, revealing an awaiting shield ablaze in blue flames. It is concussed, before being slammed in its lower back and vaulted down the line like a cannonball. For the blonde, another attack aimed for her face, but all it manages to catch is a blade in a shower of sparks. A heavy grip, before what was pulled into the vacuum he had created is forced into the beast in a pyroclasm. It screams out in agony, attempting to douse those flames.

Static jumps down his edge, making it ripe with a yellowish orange. Twisted by the blade's design but FTK's nonetheless, and it rings out in forks, reducing more to their knees. That miasma begins to seep out, dancing along the sand of Lun'Rael's awaiting grave.

A glance askance at his peers, Freyd felt proud that he could call them that.  Once, not so long ago, they felt like a rag-tag band of misfits on the periphery of major happenings in Kayaba's infernal tower.  Now, they had each come into their own, and so had Firm Anima as a whole.  Fledgling Kasumi, once terrified to hurt a fly, had come to understand the importance of standing up for her principles and those she cared about, even if it meant causing injury to others.  Her counterpart, Setsuna, was a kindred spirit, driven by cold yet fanatical zeal that chilled the land as much as her victims.  He saw so much of himself in her. 

Eruda had branched off to hold a flank along with Gaius, Kasumi and Shiina. What a wondrous band of calamity they made, unleashed upon the unsuspecting Spire with utter glee.   Their tank, who'd barely figured out how to hold when he first met her, now to proudly at the helm, leading their advance.  Even Shiina's unique brand of chaos had been harnessed to spectacular effect.  The Whisper caught a glance, exchanged between the newly-betrothed dragoon and his would-be bride lopping heads only a few paces behind Freyd's own position.  

Their third spear ravaged the ranks of crystal-infested fiends on the far side, fulfilling their own assigned task and buying time for he, Raidou, Setsuna and Freya to tear Lun'Rael's vanguard a new and very uncomfortable belly-button.  This one of a type meant to rupture and spill forth the churning, burning guts barely contained behind it.

"You've done well, Raidou," he said aloud and only for his fellow captain's ears.  "They're finally where you meant to bring them.  Now, let's prove that they're ready for the front lines and show our jailor what happens to his pets when Firm Anima looses its rage upon them."  Even as he spoke, inky, insubstantial copies trailed and multiplied in Freyd's wake until there were so many that it became impossible to distinguish the original.  Coalescing into a single, unified wave with eerie similarity to the tide of shadows unleashed by the most recent floor boss, Freyd surged.

A band of elite warriors protecting their centre were engulfed, leaving only pixelated piles of fused, crystalline goo after his passage.  They hadn't even managed to scream their blind defiance before being devoured by the void.  As the sea of shadows parted, Freyd emerged and vaulted high into the air.  'Meteor Yeet', Crozeph had once dubbed him.  The name remained apt, especially as he crashed back down to earth with such force that Lun'Rael's champion was driven into the ground, burying him up to his knees, crumpling his spartan-like helm.  The face-plate bent inward to such an extent that Marvin the Martian would have winced, and perhaps also his own gate guardian confidant.

Endless waves of specters owned by both Setsuna and her captain litter the field, mirroring opposition with duplicates lethal in their own right. Freyd pounds the opponent that stood against their ascent up the tower, locked with Raidou's blade no longer. A single outstretched arm as it attempts to stand, to right the caved in section of metal that was its helmet. To its feet, bolstering thickened muscle and bone that rippled with tenacity. A solid slamming swipe down finds Raidou's edge, breathing sparks across with multiple battering blows between the two. Hallowed whispers of Montjoy, hissing as they tear away at mind and body, detonations ringing in her ears as well as a thumping heart. Before her halts, a monster, and attempting to peel free her blade before a single hammer cold clocks it and a meaty hand clutches it by the face in a brash rush. He remarks something to her.

"Gladly." A soft tone from chilled lips, disappearing like a ghost. Between the parries, apparates a small cyan line. The arm attached to that blade freezes around the elbow before shattering. A single extended rime bleeding blade, oozing out mist in a chilled horror that washes the field. It spins and slides back into a sheath, as the one remaining enemy that stood in their path loses an arm and a large portion of its remaining health.

Screeching and screaming can be heard in the distance, flames sizzle upon being lit by her father and sister, Violet petals can be seen nearly everywhere. Somehow though it became silent. Everything besides this general was toned out, as her vision locks to nothing but him. Loss of an arm and a piercing of the sternum, it cries out in pain but all Freyja saw was a jaw wide open. Parts of the body was iced over and Freyja knew that this was nearing the end, at least this portion. A golden flash of light as her scythe bleeds out black ooze. Freyja walks slowly to this creature with nothing but killing on her mind. Mere meters from this creature now as it tries to seing knowing what was coming, Freyja jumps back to avoid but then rushes the general holding her weapon to her chest but outward. Standing on the other side now a large gash that splashed out red data, swiftly she turns to Freyd, "Finish it," as she pivots left with this being her only focus right now...

Concentration CD [1/5]

A detonation of red fog, that bleeds out into the field of hostiles. The color in their eyes fade, pupils dilate as blindness sets in. A sudden tear down the field sees the vanguard captain spin, into a signature pivot, slamming that hunk of black metal against an attempted attack. An earth-shattering ring, the ground cracks and breaks as the general's weapon explodes into metallic shrapnel. The body follows soon after, lingering lines of red light peeling from his frame as his opponent is sent flying. "Let loose the dogs of war, raise the field, and leave no soldier unmet." The words came off like a command, like a decree and like a war cry. Any damage sustained to Raidou begins to climb back to full, as a network of faintly translucent bits of silk in red coalesce in the air and find themselves to the ill omen in red. It was as if he had never taken a single point of harm, buried under a sea of crimson color.

This was the red wanderer

Sliding out from that mess, hallowed copies of Montjoy ooze out from the mixture. Which one was the real one? Would it even matter? His fate was sealed.

Black figures in the darkness.  Innumerable.  They hovered close about, like ghosts that all could feel but never see.  Only Freyd could hear their voices, echoing in the recesses of his mind: dogs of war, indeed.  He found purpose in the role, sorely needed and eagerly fulfilled.  A one-man pack of death unfolded and converged upon its hapless prey.  The Big Red was teetering, broken by the smaller one in its ever-familiar robe.  Ice and Fury had likewise drained the villain's strength. The boss needed only a gentle nudge to finish its fall and break the last bastion safeguarding the Crimson Lily.  But, Freyd didn't much feel like nudging.  Too much time had been invested in this hunt.  The finale was nigh, and this one was getting a one-way trip to oblivion.

A dozen shades circled the blighted queen's steel-clad champion, bits of crystalline growth poking out from beneath his armored hide.  They looked painful.  Freyd hoped that they were.  All the Freyds did.  Their collective hate funneled into their staves as they struck.  A dozen copies of void - holes in this false reality manifest in a dozen identical pairs of black-gloved hands.  Could they all be real?  In this moment, they seemed like their common desires made it so.  A screeching howl cried from the linchpin of the Spires fractured lines.  The seals were broken, and hungry.  A brief, black maelstrom later, the mob was gone and the rent in reality bound behind its wards once more.  Freyd and his shadows were but a memory, already pressing towards their next target.

"The path is open.  Into the keep!"

A twist of her frame sees the girl slide a blade in a quick swipe through a raging soldier, it staggers and fumbles before turning to a frozen statue. A searing blue hot blade burns through an awaiting body seeing it detonate in a cascade of ice quickly melted. Her eyes dart back toward the blonde tank. "Hold them back." Setsuna's vision snaps to the tower on the horizon, an amber sunset burning above. Her frame begins to take a smoky like sheen, bleeding off of her shoulders in soft fumes. "Well done, that voice finally carries." As her frame disperses in a specter like transparency, becoming one with the tirade of Montjoy's and her own clones, she was concealed and would make for the final lingering bit of cancer. This fight was soon to be over. Scampering toes clatter softly on the spiraling staircase, in lengthy hops up and up with quickened pace.

Charge CD: [3/3] refreshed

Eyes darting from every angle of the field. Her main target was down and she was glancing to each group for an opportunity to cut something else down. The main path was clear with a call out from her good friend, as she rushes herself toward a single target to clear some of the loose ends around the field. Dicing one in half as another approaches rather quickly, Freyja pivots and strikes this one down as well. Before she knew it though another got smart and strikes down at her. Catching its blade with the hilt of her weapon, both hands holding strong pushing against this force. At the corner of her eye, though she sees a large mace flying directly at her. It was like time stopped right there, for in that split second she knew what Raidou was trying to get through her thick skull. She puts herself in these impossible situations that are not easy in the slightest to get out of. The only thing she could do now was close her eyes and take the hit... She does just that knowing what was coming sooner rather than later...

[Raidou 1]

Sparks fly in a spray, the sound was jarring and loud. Grinding of metal on metal, the fluttering of a red cloak as the swordsman turns. A harsh blow, the mace shattered in tiny fragments before an overhead swipe becomes a slam. The unsuspecting foe, caught in the backlash of a maelstrom of hatred, dumped into the floor in a brutal rendition of a pancake. It sounds like thunder, a boom, as a blade is peeled with clumps of rubble. A finger to an awaiting brow, reflective lenses concealing amber eyes filled with crimson from view. Raidou exhales and spins the blade to neutral, air to the palm, and his attentions snap to the tower. "Come, we have work to do." he offers the blonde in a dismissal, they were stronger together. The queen would know what it was she faced, and no matter what she could produce. This was over.

Vanity Tag: @Freya

Into the tower, a winding staircase of stone with weapons stored in crags and leaning. A watchtower and their viewer waiting at the precipice of it. A woman, the lily.

The puppet master, presumably. A single swipe from Setsuna sees her recoil, a right arm flopping to the floor in an instant before taking to data. A shrill outcry, of fear and surprise. "Damn you all to hell for the chaos you've wrought!" she becomes to players who would see her erased. "It will not matter, and your comrades will parish. I will return."

Vanity Tag Exclusive: @Freyd (Explain to her why she won't this time)

A snap in recoil to the words spoken, outraged at the epiphany and reaching for the balcony. "Then this will be my last bout, and I'll be taking you all down with me!" sliding over the railing and dropping to the sand with a heavy thud, she transmorphs into a creature unheard of. A horror and a weapon concealed as a save ditch effort, she was going out with a bang. A mass of writhing heads begin to punch from the disturbed earth, sending columns of debris and shaking the tower's very foundation.

“Nope!”  Freyd said, hopping down to land upon an outcrop of the city’s ruined architecture - this one part of familiar royal barracks he’d visited once before with Fonsa and witnessed the price exacted from her for unrequited loyalty.  “You’ve used that line before, Lun’Rael.  It caused this tainted mess in the first place, fostered by mutual elven ambitions.”  He wagged a scolding finger in time with the swaying serpentine heads rising from the rubble.  “You don’t get to use it again.”

Glancing around at the Vale of Ruin, Freyd had pieced together enough of this site’s history to know that there was blame enough to go around.  A rival king and queen vied for dominance.  A chess board laid by some bishops playing at being Cardinal.  Naive players, too eager to let themselves be played as pawns for the sake of loot and the allure of senseless violence.  “You were wronged, but not by those you chose to cast into role of villains.  It was your own council that betrayed you.  Some paid the price and were laid low.  Others rose to replace them and still oppress your people, left to linger in the shadows of the world.”

He actually felt sorry for her, which surprised him.  Freyd still didn’t do sympathy very well, and this mob had caused more than her share of mayhem.  But, no few players might have fallen to the same despair in her place.  He might have too, were it not for the mettle and character of people who had chosen to give a damn about him.  

“Would you stop prattling on already?!”  Lun’Rael’s many heads mocked him in unison, her chorus of serpent tongues snidely dismissing his accounting.  They fell still and silent a moment later, as the dark figure held his arm aloft.

“Remember these?”  Palm turned outward to face the monster, Freyd held a ruby token with thin black outline of the floating castle, split by an obsidian sliver in the shape of a sword.  “I spent a long time searching, and oodles more pondering.  But you left enough dots that I eventually puzzled together your secret.  The very vector by which you spread your crystalline infection under the false promise of immortality could also be your downfall.  I found them all, your high muckity-muckiness.”  An array of scattered reptilian eyes narrowed all at once.  Hesitation scarcely concealed their common fear.

“They bind your essence across all the floors.  But, just as you used them to increase your reach, you’ve also given us the tool to strike at every part of you.”  He flipped the stone casually in the air, catching and pocketing it in a single motion.  “I’m not very good at making things, you see, but I’m really damned clever when it comes to figuring out what things are, and what they do.  All it takes is patience, and you gave me ample time.”

Pointing at the nearest head with Samael’s Pride extended in his grasp, Freyd delivered the threat she never thought she’d hear.

“You’re stuck, Lun’Rael.  And, when you die here, it will be for the very last time.”  Turning to the ranks gathered at his sides, he added for their benefit.  “Firm Anima: let’s show them how the pawns take down a queen.”

All at once, the Whisper had struck her dumb.

Bishop to B5

As if on command, a black edged blade risen to point. A gesture to a lingering scalpel, waiting and watching for that small rod of a conductor to start the play. A rimesworn blade, chilled and ready to make another showing, sees ichor colored ink spray from what seemed from no origin. It crystallizes and shifts to a gunpowder hued spray of dust, falling to the ground like pebbles. "One final life, I will take pleasure in taking part in it being taken away." A murmur like a whisper through a cloth adorning her lips. Ice-cold iris, engulfed with energies of floor 4 in its haunting. A quick glance toward the sky, to nothing and yet everything. Without a word, as Setsuna twists and draws that katana to its close, like a curtain falling upon a stage. A spray of purple petals, an omen for the rest of O&I to make their initial strikes.

Freya runs out of the building realizing that the bitch jumped out of the window. Quickly out of the door frame with a slide in the dry dirt just in time to hear her soon to be husband, "ON IT MY LOVE," as she quickly glances around trying to locate where he was in the sky. Spotting a green bubble in the almost darkened sky, a grin paint over her face. Just below him was one of the heads that sprouted from the ground. That was her target, as she readies her weapon running with it positioned to her side. With the large neck of this creature slightly tilted, Freyja runs up the side of it getting to the top. In the same motion she jumps, readjusting her scythe as she turns in the air, the rounded sharp edge carves from it's forehead to the tip of the nose, Freya is now falling. Hitting the ground doing a barrel roll to break her fall, landing on her feet. Shaking her head for a moment quickly to regain balance, her head shift toward the large creature. A large gash on it's head as it shakes it refusely as if it could do something about the damage that was just done. Hands like a cone over Freyja's mouth so her voice carried, "GIVE IT ALL YOU GOT MY LOVE," perfectly set for a major blast. Jumping back swiftly as it was trying to snip at her now. Freyja could not help but chuckle, this was fun as it misses every time...

Concentration CD [2/5]

A pungent fog of crimson red, lunging down the tower and landing firmly. The cloud buries him before pooling out from the point. A brandished blade in blackened and undistinguished steel, almost silver as it slams into a row of awaiting teeth, the first in and the last out. A shower of sparks and a scream of grinding metal, he twists his frame and struggles to redirect a blow from a titan. Teeth clenched so tight they threatened to fracture, before the weight loosens. A redirect...

"Stand your ground, in the end she will fall." Raidou lifts a finger to an awaiting pair of lenses on his brow, as a streak of light casts glare on a moving hunk of metal. At his back, weapons light one after another, like signals from stars in a sea of red night. "If that is the best you've got, I pity you." the nomad in red remarks, shifting his feet and allowing that miasma to bleed from him. Anger was a weapon to use the same as any other. It was the one he had in abundance.

Rows of teeth grind and twist, a large serpent still desperately clinging to the thought that she could best the forces matched against her. To a small creature that dug in so deep that it could not be rooted, reeling against blow after blow from the guild as a whole. A sudden snap of a jaw toward Kasumi as she rushes away, a cascade of emerald flames as it blasts against four of these assailants. But to her dismay they remained standing, and as those varied comets dart away in all directions she cannot find a target to fully sink her teeth into. Save one, heavy hunk of metal still trapped within one mouth of three.
