With beast, I hold a small ice shard in my hand. About 3 and a half years ago flame had leveled up in both rank and class suddenly. It was incredibly shocking, death won't really explain why either. None of us had been allowed to see the big guy for all this time, for the first time in years we will be allowed to see flame. I am totally reporting what I see to the others. I flick it forward and when flame is summoned....
"Holy shit"
Flame is almost as big as the whole ballroom! I stare up at the tyrant with my mouth fully opened in shock. A lot of tyrants are far bigger but still, its a shock because of just how big flame is now. Flame was always bigger then me but it started out not much bigger then a human. Now look at it. Flame huffs and leans it head down. I full body hug flames head
"Oh hey big guy I missed you. Your so big now, I can see why death sent over so much."
I guess its time to take the measurements.
With storm I slowly open the cloud barrier. Now I've only seen war fight once but I have been practicing. I turn to ice and I fuse into a puddle of ice. I slowly move throughout the valor camp keeping myself out of the sunlight. I am of course very careful about it... is that sunless and neph? Wait their actually together? I thought that was one of those over zealous rumors. I've had a few fake dating ones about myself, oddly enough a lot with seishan, a few with kai too, I can kinda see kai but I haven't even had that many interactions with seishan in a public space. Lord knows how many edits there are of me and seishan interacting at the valor ball. No dont get distracted now. I keep moving with a very strong goal in mind. Finally I get to my goal. Hehe. This plan is particularly useless technically but it will show how useless the clan is. A solo saint stealing countless materials from a great clan? That is shameful. I summon the fake mimic and it starts running around taking in the metal and wood things. Death had asked for some materials from us soooooo this will finally fulfill that request. When I get everything I want I scratch into something that's left 'heat seeker has taken payment for keeping skinwalker away' then I leave to make my way out of the camp.
With beast as I am very carefully taking flames measurements. The... oh fuck it
"I haven't asked but like... do you have a title or something? Maybe a true name?"
The leader of the midnight actors guild tilts her head
"Seer of the infinite"
I glance back at her
"Thats quite the unique true name"
She tilts her head
"And yours is not? Longing for something you may never have, always searching to find something you will never have. Is that not unique?"
My eyes narrow, I know her well enough to know she's implying something
"I guess it is."
She walks forward putting her hand on flames head, who moves away.
"You know, a few years back something happened, fate was ripped apart. Now isnt it odd that it happened right when you came back from the 3rd nightmare?"
My hands clench
"What are you implying"
She lowers her hand looking up at me
"Isn't there something missing from you?"
She steps forward
"Now wh-"
Awakened Blake opens the door loudly
"Hey uhhhhhh saint heat seeker, why do you have a bathmat in your bathroom with your helmet on it that says and I quote 'pissing all by yourself?"
I look away from seer of the infinite
"Why where you in my bathroom? There's countless bathrooms its a mansion"
With heart, I desperately clutch at my own torn open arm. It hurts so much. Im biting down on a torn off piece of the fabric part of my armor. If I scream I'll get more attention and that might cause my... death, or is it my breaking? Am I just a tool? Is that really all I am? Everything hurts, my arm is torn open, my cheek was torn open my leg is broken. Wind whips past ripping a fallen demon open. A fire keeper jumps past using the wind to speed himself up. Countless arrows fly past hitting their targets and soon the nightmare creatures hit fall dead. I feel a hand move me out of the way as a shield stops a awakened monster from hitting me
"Careful"
The fire keeper then pushes the monster off and slams the shield down on its head.
With sun, I keep my head down as the storm of ash rages on. I feel using heat sense as another person disappears into the ash. How long will we all last? Unholy and cursed abominations are the things we could deal with. We are going to die aren't we? Its sad Isn't it? To have such important pieces of humanity die. To have saints and potential saints die is always a tragedy. Even still we will make it to the spine river soon. It will become both easier and harder as then we will truly deal with the valor forces.
