Fate would keep them apart in the end. Even after he had saved her. It didn't matter if he loved her and she him. It was not destined to be. Oskar knew this as he stepped into the building and listened carefully for the sounds of people. He went forward towards them and found Genevieve tied up.
"My love— you came for me" she whispered
"Always" he said kissing her forehead. Then he began to work at the knots on her wrists with his knife.
"Awe how sweet the love bird came to get her" said a voice from the shadows and from out of them walked a tall thin man with white blond hair and grey green eyes.
"And you are?" Oskar asked brandishing a sword
"Qinceran, Qinceran Hurdosh at your service" he said bowing low in a gesture of opulence.
Oskar rolled his eyes asking "am I suppose to know that name?"
"No, and my qualm isn't with you anyways, its with her," He said. Pointing a single finger at Genevieve and an arch of blue light striking her in the chest and she let out a scream of pain.
"What are you doing to her?" Oskar yelled in distress
"She knows what she did to me" Qinceran said as raised his finger again to strike another spell at Genevieve.
"Stop it" Oskar yelled running forward and slashing twice as the spell struck and Genevieve screamed Oskar spun to see Genevieve and was unable to hit Qinceran at all.
"Guards come deal with this ofe" Qinceran called and two guards marched into the room and swing their swords at Oskar but he blocked the attacks with his own blade until the last attack hit him in the gut.
Genevieve freed her arm enough to cast a trio of fireballs at her attacker. He let out a scream of pain as fire sizzled around him and his robes caught on fire. Qinceran began to try and pat it out distracted for a moment.
Oskar steped forward and hit one of the guards before going back into a defensive position. Qinceran was distracted by putting the fire out and unable to cast anything else. His guards on the other hand struck forward towards Oskar four times hitting his legs and arms.
Oskar was able to hit the second with his sword plunging it deep into his clavicle in a bloody death. Before he turned to Qinceran rage in his eyes and ran forward with attacking and struck him twice more mauling him with cut after cut some shallow and others deep to the bone.
Qinceran in a panic tried to send out a shocking grasp at Oskar only enraging him more and causing several more mauling attacks that left deep gouges of bloody viscera and chucks of meat removed from his body.
Genevieve fully untangled herself now and stepped forward. Just as she did Oskar blood driving down his face was shot with a bareade of arrows and his body convulsed as he fell to the ground dead.
Genevieve screamed and ran at Qinceran she shoved her hands into his eyes and he screamed in pain as she unleased fire directly into his head. His skull burst into falames between her hands as his screams fizzled out and he dropped to the ground dead.
The other two asalents dropped there weapons and ran for the door. Genevieve fireballs hit the two guards. killing them as she moved towards Oskars body. The room filling with the noxious smell of burning flesh.
She went to Oskar and pulled him into her lap sobbing. His eyes flashed open and he jumped to his feet bloodless in his eyes as he looked around for an attacker. As she let out a strangled noise and he turned to her. Everything else faded away and he sat back down on the floor enfolding her in his arms.
