I feel useless right now. I am stuck in the furnace with no way of helping my teammates out. I feel something hit the floor beside me. I turn to look at it and it is one of the rings I enchanted. One of the one's I ENCHANTED. Another idea pops in my head. I have never done something as big as this, but it is worth a shot. I spread my consciousness all over the ship, enveloping it. And enchant it with a word activated spell. I chose a word in Draconic since it is quick and easy. DRACARIS. It means fire. The furness erupts with fire. This is an enchanted fire that will burn forever. Only I can put it out. I put this in the furnace since my first idea did not work. I step outside and the fire rages on. Now I am able to help my friends.
...
When I step outside, it is complete chaos. Griffons are swarming everywhere.
The ballista's are doing a ton of damage, but they just keep coming. Jets of fire shoot overhead as my dragons make a pass over the hoard. Hundreds fall, but they just keep coming. They are smart enough to tell that fire is dangerous so they move away from the ones that are lit on fire. This is not going well. Now, the Griffins have reached the deck, and are attacking us. We are managing to hold them back, but it is only a matter of time before they overwhelm us, or we get too tired. All of this happens in a matter of seconds. One group of Griffins are trying to flank us. I use some fire to scare them away. The Griffins are swarming like wasps. They are constantly too close to each other and one well placed shot will take out four of them. I think fast and charge up an attack.
"Hold on!" I hear Big D yell to Fiona. With his axe, he kills forty Griffins but more take their place. I keep charging and lighting stars to slam into the ship. It does a bunch of damage to me, but I cannot release my attack until my dragons make another pass. They are closing but we are losing ground. Just when we are about to be overrun, more jets of fire hit the griffins, forcing them back away from everyone. Just the moment I needed.
I launch the spell. A huge lighting bolt rockets toward the group. It hits one, and a chain reaction ensues. The electricity jumps from Griffin to Griffin, frying their insides. They all fall to the ground. I am exhausted. Right before I go to sit down, pain flairs from my shoulder blades. The pain is so great, I fall to the ground. It feels like something is clawing its way out of my skin. I scream in pain. I am on the ground, writhing in pain. Everyone turns to look at me. They rush over but they can't help me. Darkmin heals me, but the pain does not go away. We all hear wings flapping as something approaches. It is not my dragons. They went back into the cargo hold after the battle was over to sleep.
"Well, well, well. It seems our captured Griffins did not work." a voice says. Through the pain, I look in the direction of the voice. I see humanoid creatures standing at the edge of the ship. They have wings, horns, and tails. They are far more attractive than any creature in this realm. They are not demons, but just as bad. Seven Succubus's have appeared.
Three male, and four female. They all eye one of us up. And fly at us. They wield daggers and are very quick. We were caught off guard. They slam into everyone, but me. They are going to save me for last since I am incapacitated. They are the opposite of us. I understand the strategy, but it is terrible at the same time. Each one of them are fighting the opposite gender so they feel attracted to them, and will cause more mistakes in battle. These things are very dangerous because one unique ability with them is that mortals cannot survive 'mating' with them. We would die instantly. The pain spikes higher and higher until I am very close to passing out. I hear a ripping sound as my shirt is torn to shreds. The pain subsides and thankfully will only happen the first time they appear. I stand up and survey the area. Everyone is knocked unconscious. They are getting ready but I announce my presence.
"Hey! You still have one more to defeat!"
They turned to me shocked that I got back up. Their eyes widen when they see me. I am standing, better than ever, with a large set of golden dragon wings protruding from my back.

I smirk as my flames envelope me. They all stand stunned until three get smart and charge at me. The three males slam into me and push me off the edge. I start to fall and with my new wings, fly back up. They swing their daggers at my head and neck but keep missing. I doge out of the way. I fly up and dive at them. I grab one by the throat, and slam him down into the ground one hundred feet below. I then proceed to rip his head off. I blast off and back up to the others. I snap one's neck and the other rushes me. I dodge and rip his wings from his back. I then summon a blade using a spell and chop his head off. I turn to the others. They get mad that their companions died and fly at me. I grab one, buy the horns and slam her head into my knee. Blood sprays everywhere as her nose shatters, shards going into her brain, killing her. A knife grazes my ear as I grab another's arm and snap it in half. Her screams fill the air as I crush her skull. I dodge out of the way as a knife shaves a little hair off. I grab it and throw it back to its owner. The knife goes soaring into her eye, through her brain, and lodges into the other side of her skull. She drops like a ragdoll.
"And then there was one." I say as I turn to the last one. She freezes and I rush forward. I plunge my hand into her gut. I reach upwards and close my hand around her heart. I rip it out and she falls with the others.
A dark void like light appears behind me. The leader of this group appears from the red and black light. She is clad in dark armor. She is carrying a long sword.
"You killed my subjects. NOW YOU WILL DIE BY MY BLADE." she says in a voice that sounds like silk.
"Try me." I say in a confident tone. I rush toward her and she rushes toward me. We slam into each other. Her sword makes a cut along my left arm. I manage to break her arm. She drifts backwards and our wings keep us up. Miraculously her arm starts healing itself. When I notice this I see something on her sword hand. A very distinct ring on her index finger. A ring of regeneration. Shit. this is going to be difficult. As long as her blood is pumping, she can regenerate from any wound. She smiles as she sees my face. She charges me again and I blast her with fire, ducking under her blade. She grunts and she rockets backwards. We fight like this, her hitting me occasionally and me blasting spells at her. Eventually I am slammed into the ground, making a crater. She grins as she lands next to me.
"Now, time to die." she raises her sword, getting ready to impale me, wne I dodge out of the way. I then melt her ring.
"You should have made it fireproof." I say with a grin. She scowles and takes a defensive position. I charge and she goes up. I follow, gaining on her. She swipes at me with her sword, but I dodge easily. I slam her into the ship. She gasps in pain and drops her sword. I grab her by the neck and start to crush her windpipe.
"Wait..." she gasps out "Don't kill me... we can work together... you can be a king and rule with me, as husband and wife."
"Nah." I say as I reach inside my bag of holding with my left hand. I pull out the dagger I got from the tomb.
"Wait!" she screams as I plunge it into her heart.
