InfiniteInsanity she/her Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Ravelast: SIxth Archive Gateway Insa freezes in confusion. She had wanted to get the book and stop Bookwyrm and Calano and then it had all faded. She watched as fights began. She sends Bookwyrm a message. What just happened and what am I supposed to be doing? @The Bookwyrm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He swung his sword at her legs. At the same time, he gathered Light in his mind before shoving it into Insa, melting away the temporary corruption. Quote It would be harder than that to remove it. Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Emma's sword flashed against Calano's. The blinding white flashing against the all consuming blackness. Raven against crow. Her way of the Raven against Calano's way of the crow. She knew more forms that him and she used her powers of darkness to call upon a second form. Something that had been impossible before. Calling upon the way of the Cat along with the way of the Raven, Emma pressed hard against Calano. Her sword moving faster than thought, her instincts blocking blows before she even knew they were coming. @CalanoCorvus 6 minutes ago, CalanoCorvus said: Quote so there's a couple ways this battle could go. Quote You know that Emma's toying with you all right? She and Layra can retreat through the barrier while you all can't.

InfiniteInsanity she/her Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Quote Ha, so still corrupted. Ravelast Sixth Gateway Archive Before Bookwyrm can answer her the darkness takes over Insa again. She swings her sword at him.

Medium he/they Posted January 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Calano whirled, the Light enveloping him against the ever pressing onslaught of Dark. At this point, he had nothing left to lose. And Emma still had everything to lose. So he whirled and struck and slashed and jabbed. A furious display of swordplay from the two of them. He split the sword in two, dual wielding against the Cat and Raven. A crow had beak and talon. Calano had beak and talon. @The Wandering Wizard Quote i literally slashed my way in here with a sword of Light. I can follow Emma. Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Layra jumped over Bookwyrms sword, hissing, but remained standing. Everyone else was in a very personal battle. Hm. End it. A voice in Layra's head said. End it now. The voice said. Layra froze. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No permanent corruption "I'm sorry," Bookwyrm said to Insa. "This won't exactly be comfortable..." Bookwyrm touched Insa's arm, and increased the gravity around her, forcing her onto her knees. He used that same gravity to restrain her arms, then knelt down and put his fingers on her temples. Then, Bookwyrm pushed himself into Insa's mind. @The Wandering Wizard Quote Is Emma ever going to try to make the corruption permanent? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can follow Emma. Quote Your bodies were already inside of it. Though you probably could follow. Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway The darkness demanded the blood of the Crow and Emma its willing servant. She tapped into a third form, the way of the tortoise and gained a shield. She evolved another form, the cat into the tiger. Her feet flew across the floor, beating a tempo from the darkness. A final weapon, it nearly was too much, controlling Insa, keeping up the dome, and all the weapons, the sword, the shield, and the music. So dropped the dome, her fury undaunted, her sword raged against Calano. Seeking the deadly opening, until it found it. @CalanoCorvus 1 minute ago, The Bookwyrm said: Quote Is Emma ever going to try to make the corruption permanent?

Medium he/they Posted January 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Calano's soul thrummed with the Rhythm Of The Light, pulsing out against the Tempo Of The Dark emmited by Emma. "Think, dammit!" Calano shouted, tears forming in his eyes, "You resisted so long! Why let go now?!" He whirled, blocking attacks from all sides. @The Wandering Wizard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he thought. I can't...I don't even know how I met you. But I can't let this happen. An idea formed. It wasn't the best idea. But it was the only one he could think of. Bookwyrm extinguished his light and instead turned on a power akin to gravity, pulling the Darkness towards him, clearing Insa's mind and soul. Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Bookwyrm stared into Insa's eyes and gave a sad smile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 The Sixth Archive dreamscape Thaidakar couldn't wait, so he tried to think of where Calano and Bookwyrm had gone... he tried to picture it. Revalast... He reached for something that wasn't there, eyes starting to glow light red... he sighed, "for the greater good." Thaidakar reached with the power and found the place he was supposed to go. "Well, time to go." He disappeared in a bright flash of red light. As he disappeared, he merged with his physical body. Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Thaidakar appeared in a burst of red sparks and said, "what'd I miss?"
