✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Jamis's POV *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

This is just my second day in Eumava and I'm already fallen into trouble. It sure feels lonely in this dark place, unlike normal Astrals and Creatures, a divinity like me even if exiled and became mortal, I would not gain an inner dark. I can just waltz off into the abyss and leave unscathed. I guess I should free these Creatures and Astrals, they are starting to lose themselves.

I step through the abyss and float around, using my divine powers would make this easy but, the downside of being exiled is that using it will drain my lifeforce, not belief. I should only use my powers if it's an emergency.
"Salinas: Yemewe Huma-memi-miemog"

It's rather odd using spells in the abyss, even if you think or try to say things, you are left silenced, hence why, Astrals and Creatures shouldn't get close to it. You'll get pulled and drowned. For me, it feels like I am using spells with my mind. But, enough visualizing, they won't save themselves. I need something to boost the influence of my spell, how about some creation spell? "Numtal: Bimemef Bio-ozie" My spell's Belief Code enlarged drastically, this should be enough to get us all out. "Release." The abyss filled in with a bright light.

✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Blazer's POV *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

I'm feeling uneasy, something is happening to Radiant. I need to find him. Cade looks at me concerned. "You know, you don't need to face this alone, Blaze." His face gets close to mine. "If you feel like everything is gonna topple down, let me lift the burden with you." Cade...

He kisses me and it makes me calm even if it's only temporary. "Thank you, Cade." I hold him close. Then a horrifying screech is heard.
"Allure: Femamimuewie." My mind is transferred to someone's eyesight in the town.

"Stay away Darkness!" Now's the time, 'Let me ingrain this moment in my mind and make it seem like it's a photo.'

'Allure: Zie-mu Xie-mom' noises stops and I came back to my own body. "Come on Cade, we don't have much time." He's shaking but, his eyes are determined.

"Let's go." We jog through the unmoving civilians.

"Ragire you must listen to me, buddy. You need to get underground with your brothers." He shakes his head.

"No! Me stay here." He stomps the ground. I worry he might see just how scary I am.

"I can't protect you..." I look down my ears flattened.

Ragire pets my head, and I purr. "Then me will protect you~" My sister giggles behind me.

"Okay, let's help other civilians and Hannah?" I turn to her and then a horrifying screech is heard. Hannah collapses to the ground. "Hannah! Sister, respond to me." I cradle her head and test if she's breathing. "Her breathing is faint..." Ragire growls and he is looking at the door to the halls of the castle, there's an obvious sound of clunking. I look around for a weapon.

I grabbed the poker stick from the fireplace and brandish it as a weapon. The figure at the door seems to be tracing the crevices of the door. A bead of sweat trickles down my forehead. Ragire comes behind me. That's good, if it comes to it, I will use my curse to petrify this shadow. The door creaks open.

A big salivating grin is the first to poke into the room, sniffing about and licking its lips. By the time it poked its whole head in it's too late... It seems like the shadows have planned their invasion well, they sent after us, a shadow with no eyes. "This is bad..." It screeches and I had to cover my ear to not become deaf. "Ragire quickly, take Hannah out the window!" He moves as I had told him.
"Let my will bend the earth!"

"Gargan: Isogie-max!"
I contort the floor the shadow is standing on and pin it down. While I elevate a platform outside. "Ragire, get on the platform." I charge to the restraint shadow and stabbed it where its eyes would have been. It yowls in pain and I run to the platform and will it to go back to the earth.

"Where to?" Ragire asks. His red eyes filled with bravery.

"Let's go to the underground bunker." Hannah, please be okay.

✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Aidan's POV *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

"Damn these vulture shadows!" Were pushed in the middle of a swarm of flying vultures. My wings are getting restless. But, I must prevail. The church almost has the incantation ready. "General! Command us!" Looking at it, there are seven of us, which all consist of wind affinity. And the vultures are more than the finger can count.

"Listen well! We're going to have to push through! Get in V formation!" My soldiers roar and get to the front of the squad. "Soar! Never lose the formation! And use your wind spells!" We swiftly maneuver over blades and magic.

"Haro: Lamzu!" The wind picks up around us making us much faster, and my squadron feels like they are much more than before.

"Mind if we join, Captain?" It's General, Gabriel!

"Salinas: Wumew Yemewe!" A flash of light disintegrates a great number of vultures.

"General! Thank you for your help!" He chuckles.

"Aidan, I'm proud of you, even in the face of terror and hopelessness against the dark, you fight!" We're still flying on top of the front gate. I look around the battlefield. The King needs help, Radiant... Radiant is unconscious in the back of the King's horse. I was about to fly down when General Gabriel stops me.

"Sir! We need to help the King!" He looks at me.

"If you want to help, his highness, it will be in your best interest to keep the Church safe, they will end this once they finish their incantation." I hesitantly go back to formation.

Radiant...
