Tresor...

...he really was willing to sacrifice whatever the cost to see this end. He protected his goddess to the end, and now, Hel has lost her consort.

My eyes widen as Hel immediately lifts to the air, her and Aeon soaring higher as I can't keep up with their movements. Tresor bonded with Hel's soul, he didn't bond with Dot, and a piece of his soul remains within her, driving her further.

The ground shakes as something plumps and impacts with the ground. My heart beats fast, waiting, watching...though it's Hel that sails down from the air, watching as the energy shifts on either side of her hands, the white, purple, black wisps, they surround her as they almost become one of the same.

Aeon lifts to his feet right before Hel impacts, tendrils spiking from his body as they thrash toward her. She's quick, falling away and rolling to the ground, and when she pushes off the ground, electric blue energy emits from her body as she suddenly strikes him with one hand. Her hand tears through Aeon's chest, coming out the other side as she stands strong, Aeon's arms grasping onto her one through his body.

Blood comes from his mouth, his features shifting as he shakes his head, chuckling, "Y-You..."

"You will pay his life with your own," Hel's words are ominous, wondering if that is what she was praying to Ekáti for? Why though, is a god or goddess not supposed to kill out of vengeance?

Hel's movements are with emotion though, more so than before as she'd been ready to destroy whatever needed to be done...however, her motives are slightly off from once before. Something...dark begins to manifest, seeing the way almost like a dark, thick liquid begins to form from the wound generated by Hel. It continues to spread; hearing Aeon scream causes a shiver to run down my spine.

The pain that erupts...

...I see Aeon lift one of his hands, trying to reach Hel's face, telling her, "I-I would h-have spa-spared y-you—"

Hel quickly draws her arm back, standing tall as Aeon's body falls backward, hitting the ground as the air lifts, dusty gathering. It settles the second I can no longer sense his heartbeat, Hel lifting her gaze to the sky as I feel another wave of energy pulsates from her. The white wisps quickly leave around her feet as it travels like a cloud out around from her. It lifts whatever power Aeon held over everyone, watching as they are able to move, most coming closer to where we are.

Nehalennia doesn't drop the barrier, my voice uneven as I utter quietly, "This isn't over...?"

"Hardly," is the one word that leaves her lips.

Loki releases Acacia, watching as I see the shift in his eyes...the white that consumes them. It's just the beginning, Taron and Rian quickly coming within the protective barrier that surrounds us. More continue to move, watching carefully before I glimpse Beryl fly high, a brilliant light forming from her wings before something falls from the sky.

It-It's like before...

...I brace myself to the ground as I see a huge tendril try to fall upon us all. Beryl's light is enough, it keeps it at bay, though the ones who have not found protection under her light...

"Loki!" Acacia exclaims, watching as he's quick to move, knowing that this isn't Loki, this is Zeus that immediately charges to protect others. His light keeps the next wave at bay, Hel remaining where she stands as the ground ripples with energy.

I turn to Nimue and ask, "What can we do?!"

"Nothing..." her voice trails off in disbelief as she stares on in complete horror, "...my uncle was right, this is no God that anyone should follow, or believe in..." Aeon's destructive force continues as the sky begins to shift in coloration.
