Deepwoken: Divers

Rumbling: Humanity's Soldiers

As Pakki made a sudden move, Lord Regent stabbed several tendrils into a him, a technique that could literally rip people apart if he decided to.
Zi'eer looked at him, unamused, though Pakki didn't listen to what he was saying - he only had one thought plauging his mind.
"Fight... Fight...! Fight, no matter what! FIGHT! FIGHT, EVEN IF YOU CAN'T ANYMORE!"
Suddenly, with a large burst of strength, he was able to sever the tendrils which quite literally ripped pieces of his body out, including in his neck at his vocal chords. "FIGHT!" He yelled out, as he lit the eyepatch on fire, throwing it at Regent's throne.

A single tendril flew towards the flaming eyepatch, one of Regent's guards looking at it closely. "That smell..." It suddenly lit up. "SHIT, IT'S GUNPO--"
Suddenly there was an explosion in the throne room, forcing everyone to look there.

Hiding behind mountains, some already on the shore, the Authority, Hive, Ignition Union and Diver forces were arguing, a battle was about to start between them. Though there were people trying to break them up, much like Kevin, this was inevitable.
Faust looked towards the palace from the shores, waiting for a signal from the Hivemind. "Come on Pakki... Whole world's watching..." He said, as he turned his gaze towards the sky. There were heavy clouds, yet no rain and no thunder. It was the calm before the storm.

Pakki stood inside the destroyed building, getting up from the rubble. Now he had every power he needed.
As Zi'eer looked at him, he was smug for a moment. "I ripped out his vocal chords... He can't make a noise..." He thought to himself before saw the lack of a bell on Pakki's waist. His gaze immediately landing on the hole in his neck. "NO-- The manifestation of his resonance... It isn't a bell, it's his vocal chords! I can't destroy them- I can't stop it from happening now! He swore an oath to me, why is he able to defy me...?!"
Pakki slowly stumbled up, looking at the sky as he took a deep breath before letting out an extremely loud roar, similar to that of a megalodaunt. Anyone nearby had to cover their ears, it could be heard even from Minityrsa, almost all across the entire Luminant. As he let out the scream, sparks gathered around him, sending a massive crimson lightning into the sky that shook the very earth they were standing on.

Faust got a signal. Pakki communicated with the owls - "It's ready. Attack."
The ships stayed still for a moment, several deep owls appearing all throughout Etris, the battleships, Songseeker Isles, Minityrsa, and anywhere nearby that would be affected.
After a few moments, the owls started to speak in unison.
"I'm using owls to communicate, send a message. My name is Patrick Jaeger. I'm the Songspeaker. A hundred years before my birth, in the winter of 1291, something called the Rumbling happened. A cataclysmic event in which thousands of megalodaunts rushed all parts of this world, causing the very earth to rumble. Now, the Ministry is responsible for thousands if not millions of deaths, and is actively trying to sink this world, causing another coming of the Tides. They wish to become gods by doing this, but as a deepwoken, I reject this." He said, his words echoing all throughout everyone's heads who heard them. He took a deep breath. "I started another Rumbling. This time, however, it is a controlled version of it - only the Ministry will be harmed. If you are innocent of their crimes, you will not be harmed. Now is your only chance to flee. As for my goal... I wish to make the Ministry pay. That's what I'm going to do - I will topple the Ministry's rule over this world. Millions of megalodaunts and other monsters are rushing towards Minityrsa and Etris, and even more will come. I'm not going to stop the Rumbling... Until I've exterminated every last one of them, freeing us all from their grip and preventing the second Tides."

The soldiers from all the nations looked in confusion before Kevin stepped up. "What are you waiting for...?! That kid's only 19, yet he delivered on his promise. Are you all going to fight amongst yourselves and let his efforts - OUR efforts go to waste? Hive, Divers, Union or Authority, it doesn't matter, in this battle, you're all Humanity's Soldiers! If you want to fight amongst yourselves, do so! But... If you want to defeat this world's biggest threat, follow me!" Kevin said as he rushed into the battle, equipping his arcwarder armour.
The young divers and older union soldiers were the first to follow, and then, seeing as the divers and union soldiers were teaming up, the Hive's drones also went into battle.
With no enemy but the Kingdom of Etrea left, the Authority decided to attack as well, making the uneasy alliance aptly named Humanity's Soldiers by Kevin finally work.

Pakki was fighting Regent, when suddenly a tendril nearly impaled him, only for it to be sliced in half by wind just seconds before it could reach him.
Faust took out his greatsword. "Oh how I've been waiting for this..."
Zi'eer sent out several tendrils for both of them. "You have no conception of the powers you are dealing with. You and your little army will die like worms."
Faust sliced them off one by one, backing up a little so he wouldn't get hit.
Pakki dodged a few before jumping into the air, summoning a signature shadow greatsword almost instantaneously before slamming it down on Regent, his wounds regenerating as he damaged him with the red gem on his necklace glowing as he did.
Regent retaliated by sending an extremely fast and powerful thick tendril towards Pakki, which he tried to dodge but still got stabbed in the side by.
Faust inhaled some of the gale from his resonance, sending a massive flaming upper slice at Regent's back. "Don't you fucking dare forget about me."
The slash left a deep imprint on the ground, setting it on fire and sending Zi'eer flying into the air, one of his arms sliced clean off and completely incinerated by the flames.
As Zi'eer spun around in the air, two more powerful tendrils came out of his arm's place, one going for Pakki while the other went for Faust.
Pakki got impaled through his stomach, flying towards a wall before he summoned a dark blade in his hand through Yun'Shul's power, slicing the tendril off.
Faust just barely blocked it, however his greatsword was broken in half by the attack. "...shit..."

Kevin broke a blade lock with an Etrean soldier, feinting a slash before slicing his throat from the other side. As Kevin looked behind himself, he saw all of the soldiers on his side near him were dead. As he looked at their wounds to determine the direction of the attack. As he looked towards the possible position of the attacker, a man dressed in white robes dashed through him before sheathing a katana. The attack pushed Kevin back slightly, breaking off his arcwarder suit.
Kevin looked at the docks, only to see several Etrean ships. "Shit... These are Etrean Vigils..."
