RoV- Romi Arc

Siege

The duo had begun their assault on the palace, the guards began to drop like flies from the combined powers of the magician and dragon hybrid. Wave after wave they had come, and wave after wave they had fallen. This pattern was all halted when he arrived, Ajax the Lesser was a man that had defied the very Gods of Olympus, and had inspired men like Telence to rise up against them.

" Stand Down..." The man ordered, pointing his large hammer in the direction of the two fighters, causing the battle to pause from the sheer shock of his arrival.

" Ajax the Lesser...is in line with Romi? " Seth Thought To Himself in shock, his eyes widening as he gazed upon the figure that stood upon him, however, Hottan gave a different reaction to the situation, and simply dashed towards his opponent with his blades.

" Do you want me to put the hammer down! " He shouted, the weapon having a menacing aura around them as Seth grabbed Hottan's arm firmly.

" Ajax the Lesser, is a man who has defied Gods...be cautious if you are to face him..." The sorcerer said, as he planned to deal with the waves of fighters that had surrounded them.

" Nay, he shall not be facing him, I shall " A voice beckoned from far ahead, the armored man himself, Bari, son of Telence.

" Why should we trust you? " Seth asked, turning over to the arena fighter.

" You killing Romi makes my job easier, I'm simply speeding up the process by letting you get to him quicker " Bari said, a blade forming on the wrists of his armor as he approached the warrior from Troy....

Yasho and Sobera charged towards the location of Etar, while they could have entered the fortress easily with the guardians absent, the centaur was much too valuable an asset to leave unattended. Vain simply scoffed upon the two as they approached on horseback, as a series of blades erected from the ground, impaling the horses as the newly formed shades rose from the grassy fields.

The creatures began to swirl and contort as their very essence was pulled into a magic symbol that had formed in Vain's hand, glowing violently with purple light as it began to charge. The swordsmen let out screams of pain as they were hurled into the magic circle unwillingly, and the sisters simply watched the madness in awe. " Medea really isn't messing around..." Sobera Thought to herself, trying to get up from her fallen horse and grab her sister, however, the wave of purple energy swept through them, causing them to be sent away like Etar.

" You're Easily outmatched, how did any of you think you could defeat me, let alone the combined strength of me and my partner? " Vain asked, grinning as he gazed upon Yasho.

" I didn't...it's called stalling..." Yasho coughed weakly, as a loud noise could be heard in the distance, a small army had rushed to the aid of the Fonica sisters, it was the remaining forces of the Balan military, seeking vengeance upon those Telence had associated with.

" Shit..." Vain muttered under his breath, fleeing to confront the Calvary with D.E.S by his side, while they were fodder, they would buy the sisters some time.
