The second Tresor transport with me, I feel the rush of air encompasses my being before everything comes into focus. Vexy's true kitsune form, she's encircling multiple times around the large demon-like that of Prince Carnivale. A wave of energy seems to be rippling off her fur the second Vexy skids to a halt and unleashes a devastating growl that nearly topples the demon to the ground.

"Well, this should end much easier..." Tresor's voice trails off as he walks past me, though I quickly catch up as he continues, "...that is Prince Luvart. He is a Prince of Powers, though only of the Third Hierarchy."

"Why do you say it will be easier?" I question as I can't help but disagree as the demon knocks away many trees as it trudges through the snow toward Castle Valentine.

Tresor nods at something, and I then notice that it is Nehalennia. He informs me, "This demon is hardly stronger than that of a nine-tailed kitsune...let alone, a Lycan."

Glancing all around, my concern is easy to read as I attempt to connect with Kai and Wyn, though neither are reachable. Instead, I try once and manage to reach Dot as I ask, Where are you?

I should be asking you the very same question.

My heart skips a beat, Dot's presence made known as she shadows the steps leading to the castle's main doors. Many of the werewolves that have been protecting the castle grounds are now within the walls, the devastating attack from Prince Luvart causing many to panic. I cannot blame them, even though Tresor's presumption that this isn't something to be concerned about, I can't stop the doubt.

"NOW!" Dot yells and I see Nehalennia glance back at Dot before she nods in unison.

Magic swirls and whips around Dot instantly, though I see the way it quickly spreads, reaching out toward the walls of the castle standing behind her. My heart aches though, as all I can see within my distant memories...

...is the way Acacia fell protecting Castle Starr from Aeon.

Thankfully, Prince Luvart is nowhere near the capacity that Aeon is and Nehalennia quickly dashes toward the demon on all fours before she quickly pulls up into a standing position. I see the glimmer that comes from the obsidian markings on her forehead and down her muzzle. They quickly flicker with a radiant light, and when she blinks her eyes once again, her eyes shift to that of amethyst color.

Dot's magic pulsates, my gaze lifting to Nimue as she's suspended in the air upon her leathery bat-like wings. Her electric blue eyes are haunting, though I see she draws the magic and exchanges with Dot, the two workings to protect the castle as Vexy and Nehalennia quickly close in on Prince Luvart.

Nehalennia's movements are quick, triggering something as energy emits from her body...though Prince Luvart quickly lifts its arms and breaks away the energy. It flies in two different directions one furthest from where I stand and the other...

...the air leaves my lungs as everything happens in a matter of seconds.

I'm in the air, looking down as I yell out only to see that the magic destroys the ground which I had just been standing on with...my gaze lifts and it's Tresor who had pulled me into the air to...safety. His demonic form is on full display, his wings beating rhythmically while his tail is wrapped around my waist, his eyes staring into mine as his demeanor remains even.

He...just...

A horrifying yell comes from Prince Luvart, as apparently, Tresor taking me to the skies was a distraction in itself. When my gaze falls toward the ground, I see that Nehalennia has a large chunk of flesh between her teeth, the demon's neck torn out from the front. It falls to the ground, gapping in confusion while Vexy quickly dashes up from behind. Moments later, her jaw clamps down on the back of the demon's neck, before she tears its spine clear out of its body when she throws her head back.
