Leth was passing through Hyrule town when he glanced to his left and saw, in the distance, Nogare. Leth's eyes lit up, and a smile broke out on his face, and he almost called, "Nogare!" -but then Leth saw him massacre the soldiers. Dumbfounded, he could only stare in horror as the nightmare unfolded. The smile was gone from his lips. Unbelief was written in his eyes. He slowly, backed up a few steps, then turned tail and ran off into the night.

OOC: ... Sovelis, we hurt you in character, not out! .

IC: What have you made me do!!

Just what they deserved, Nogare... just what they deserved...

What did they do?

Various things. Basically they are all against my will. So if they serve no purpose to my dominion other than to die in the process, then we'd might as well murder them all.

No! I can't be in command of you anymore!

He was able to sense an arrow coming his way in time before slicing it in half.

And then Sovelis' element of light came at Nogare (Sovelis - Elemental Burst - Light. -> 1.25 (Strong to Light+15+9=24=Half Damage (Roll+SPI)))

It was almost as though Nogare wasn't even aware that it hit him. When it seemed to strike, it really went around him just at the last second! How?

Shing! Shing! Clash! Clash! So sounded the blades of Remos. He drew both swords, and both were blocked firmly by the exile, one by one. He posses the greatest threat of them all, Nogare. Murder him.

But I can't! He is good at heart!

And are we? He means to murder you!

But that's was because of us!

Well then, all the more reason to kill him! There's no getting out of this! There will be no forgiveness for you anymore!

He knew that it would be easy to cast a thunder spell. No big deal to kill them all.

And so he let it loose! Saber was hit, and so was Remos! 25 DMG! (Nogare - Thunder. (10+1+14(Level+Base class+INT) = 25 vs 14+8 (roll+SPI) = 22. Strike!)

OOC: Let me know if you want Nogare to fight normally.

IC: The thunder hit every soldier present, and all fell limp, rather than go flying through the air.

HP:


Sovelis - 1 HP

Nogare - 98.75 HP

Remos - 55 HP

Kasei - 40 HP

Saber - 16 HP

Leth - 31 HP
[/i]

OOC: See now, that's just rude, I haven't even attacked him, for all he knows, I'm on his side!

IC: Saber winced as the strike hit him. He couldn't believe it. Yet again, here he was, being pelted with the magical attacks he so loathed. He had to find a way to stay alive...and regrettable, the only option he had was the same option that had made him last longer than ten secods against Alpha. He ducked into an alleyway and bowed his head, searching for spiritual enlightenment to heal his wound. "Favor of the Goddesses, please lend your aid to I, your humble servant." This had better work, I have no way of hitting this guy the way he is.

_______________

Up on the roof, Burlo has holding his staff above Sovelis' chest, the glowing tip dripping sparks into his body as he attempted to heal the critical patient. He had removed the arrow and cleaned the wound, now all he had to do was repair the damage and close it up. Hopefully, this would do the trick; He was a valuable asset to their assault.(Temple Services)

Leth was half way down the street when he stopped. A turmoil of voices cascaded inside of his head. He couldn't decide what to do. I should go back and help them. But look at what he did to Sovelis and Kasei! I think I should sit this one out... And he picks up his running again, only to stop a few feet down the street. I should at least get help. But what help can I get? He'll only destroy soldiers. I guess the only help I can give is my own. Leth slowly turns around, and takes a few hesitant step towards the battle, then halts yet again. I could get Karuna and Polari and maybe Drommlin to help me... Yeah. That's what I'll do. And he whistles shrilly. A falcon flies down and lands on his arm. "Go get the others as quickly as you can!" The falcon seems almost to nod, then takes off in a flash. Within minutes, Leth and his companions are running towards the grim melee. Upon reaching the scene, Leth draws his dagger and suddenly realizes how small a dagger is. He glances over at Drommlin and his big spear, and sighs. Karuna has drawn his sword, and Polari the Minish sat a ways away, eyes closed, ready to work magic. Leth nodded, and they began their assault. Karuna curled up and rolled at Nogare, leaping up at the last second above him, and coming down with his sword pointed at him. At the same time, Drommlin leaped and swung his spear at him from the side; Polari cast elemental explosion; Leth, fervently hoping his dagger was enough, slashed at Nogare with all his strength while yelling, "NOGARE! COME BACK TO YOUR SENSES!"

OOC: I revised Aberdath's stats slightly. Also, could you type how much SPL everybody has left as well. One more thing(Uncle style-while slapping Nogare on the forehead), did you take note that when he attacked you last turn, he was flying?

IC: Remos was ticked, both of his swords missed. However, three new men had entered combat. He flew around trying to find a weak point where Nogare's defenses weren't so good. His silver irises glittered in the sun. Who was this man, and what made him a forsaken one. He seemed to have a split personality, perhaps the evil within him made him forsaken. Finally, after much thought, he got behind Nogare, and aimed at his back, using both swords.

"T-thank you, kind sir..." Sovelis managed to say as Burlo was healing him. "I could have done it...m-myself, but somehow, I didn't see that coming at me through the undertime." Sovelis struggled to sit up."How fairs the others? And what has happened to Nogare?"

OOC: You can choose whatever, but if you choose to keep Nogare as is, i'll use Kasei's alternate stats. only difference:

HP: 200
AGI: 15
STR: 10

IC: Kasei looked on in rage as the thunder spell was cast, and looked at the caster itself. Kasei ran at Nogare with inhuman speed and attempted to strike a blow, the rebel flame then jumped back in case of a counter attack, and awaited the others.

OOC: I go by whoever is fastest attacks first, even normally, I think Kasei is the fastest one here.

If Drommlin's power was awakened, you'd be a slug compared to him... but I won't say any thing else. I've said to much already.

Who was flying?

But sure, I'll keep track of the SPL.

Stats:
Sovelis - 16.5 HP

Nogare - 98.75 HP, 488 SPL

Saber - 16 HP, 0 SPL

Leth - 31 HP, 11 SPL

Polari - 23 HP, 7 SPL

Karuna - 41 HP, 6 SPL

Drommlin - 31 HP, 9 SPL

IC: The soldiers were smart enough to know that swords were of no more use, save for those knew better how to use magic and swords. So they used what weapon was left - bow.

"Verlahia Es Falatur!" Ready your arrows!

And during the time that it took the Hylian Knights to ready their arrows, Leth's company had come. Karuna came forth rolled at the exile, but Nogare practically leap-frogged over the Goron, but not in mockery; just to do whatever he could to get out of the way, and then

OOC: Leth, I'm giving that a free shot. But next time, tell me how many talent bonuses each of your characters have.

IC: Drom came forth, spear ready, and right when Nogare had gotten him out of the way, he turned to face him.

All again seemed slow to Nogare. He pictured in his mind the way the blow was going to be. The attackers seemed to take their time...

Turiluve...

Then Nogare leaped into the air, and readied his sword to go fright passed the spear and into Drom's heart - a blow able to kill a man - even a mighty one.

But when Leth came from behind, crying, "Nogare! Come back to your senses!!" things seemed to change. His face softened, and a fai9nt light returned to his body rather than shadow - though it was not either - he glowed like an ordinary person.

What have you made me do, you sick pig!

The voice began to chuckle and eventually cackle to what he said. Observe, son of 'Greyblade'. You hardly deserve that title, you maggot! Look at the corpses from your sword, the hate in the air, the astonishment to your suddenly evil actions!

And he did... he did. He turned, still soaring at Drom. and looked at the street. Everyone was fighting against him, not knowing that they were really fighting someone else. He saw the corpses of knights that he had known, been friends with - three of them he had even seen be knighted. Now dead... by his own hands...He could not believe what he had done... What he had let happen... His old friends with desires to see his body lying dead on the ground... He could see their sadness... their unwillingness to kill him, yet they felt it had to be done... And he couldn't just bring everyone back to life and say, "I'm so sorry!" Indeed, he would do anything for forgiveness. But what could he do? How could he murder so many and ask for such a thing...

I must go...

No! You will kill every last one of them! And then we go to kill the king shortly after!

It was not his fault that I was exiled...

But these people mean to kill you! How do you expect to get out of this without a fight...?

I won't...

Nogare, once again focusing on Drom, sheathed his broad sword, and kicked Drom out of his way, sending him flying, but towards a pile of hay that which farmers from out of town must have brought forth to sell in the city. And as Leth came from behind, he kicked him in the rib, to re-direct his course.

But then it finally happened...

"Raah!" Fire!

Nogare knew it was coming... they were coming... all seven arrows. He landed, and avoided all of the arrows, one at a time...

... save for the last....

It was going towards a window of a house. And there was someone watching his malice from it.

Let them die, fool!

I've had enough of you! Leave me!

But...

The old woman at the window shrieked as the Hyrulean Arrow flew in her direction, through Nogare. But the former knight did not stir. He let it come to him, likely a blow to finish him.

NOOOOO!!!!!

THUD!

A fountain of blood poured from Nogare's mouth. all looked, some in triumph, and some in misunderstanding, for it was obvious that he let that one land...

How did you react?

He looked up to his friends around him... and said what he had wanted to say, even though they would not be taken as the way he would have liked...

"I'm so sorry... forgive me..."

And so he ran from the scene... to the drawbridge...

"Shut the gate!"

Leth paused. His cry seemed to have some effect. Then Nogare kicked him out of the way. Leth landed, hard, on the street pavement, his breath heaving. He looked up at Nogare just in time to see the arrow land, to see him apologize, to see him run away. He almost called to stop him, to talk to him, but he knew that would only take away his chances of getting away. Leth sighed and watched him run off at the drawbridge, hoping he would be able to make it.

The young scholor walked out of a distant book shop, arms full of books, and walked tword the courtyard. He then, of course, saw the raging battle.

"What in Hyrule is going on? Has Nogare gone mad? Oh why must these battles be in places full of citizens, there is no way I could heal them all...The best way to stop this maddness, is to stop Nogare, oh how I hope I need not kill him!"

Denning looked around, and saw Saber, who was hurt. He made his way to Saber, and channeled his holy light into Saber, giving a golden glow for a few seconds. (Temple Services).

Denning then made his way to the back of the battle, and waited to see if someone else needed healing.

Leth approached Denning. "It's about over, friend. I do not know if we will need your skills."
