Style: Technical/LS] A great breaking had been performed. Streamers of light and dark blanketed the world by the hundreds.
A hylian knight on patrol in Castle Town was nothing unique.
The sun drew, took aim, and loosed. In one smooth moment, an arrow of light descended from the sky and passed through his armor into his heart. It happened so quickly and soundlessly that as he fell to the ground dead, a good samaritan stopped and knelt by his side and asked if he needed help.
he cheated on his wife he disrespected his mother he swore he coveted he sinned
A stainless white hand reached up and pulled his black heart out.
He had never been a warrior of light. Even the royal family had let evil into their hearts. No more. There was not a word for what he was now other than pure.
It shucked its old shell like a suit of stained clothing and rose reborn. Perfect. Beautiful. White slicked with the blood of a sinner. It had work to do.
she lied to her sister her mother her father her brother she sinned
It ripped her lying throat out with its teeth. With every death it saw the world more clearly. Its eyes were the sun and they burned away the lies.
the children are not his she was born of rape he lusts for his brother they sinned
A mother, a father, three children, these words meant nothing to it. They were evil, and such were the wages of sin. They were screaming now. Running. They feared it. They feared judgement. They would not escape justice. With a voice so pure so bright it screamed its warning and struck fear into their dark hearts.

((OOC: I don't have a set up for the LS battle set up but know the basic rules. hoping that damage will be calculated.))
It was very strange... nothing like it had ever happened before. the sky had lit up with such strange lights... as if the stars themselves were falling to earth. But that was only a story told to the young ones. a story of bravery. But never before did Silver actually think he'd see the lights for himself.
Silver traversed the town little by little taking everything into consideration. There was a strange light, this one smaller. like a focused shot. It was strange... very strange. There was also the sound of metal hitting the ground. it echoed through the empty streets.
"Hm, that sound could have come from any direction.... I wonder what it was....... seems too strange to let go...."
Silver stood in the the town square. His cape rustling in the wind. there was an eerie wind blowing this night.... something didn't seem right.... something........

Seayn had been on his way home from his travels this night. He'd been out and about doing his adventuring but it was hard work and he wanted to take a break. The young man couldn't wait to collapse into his bed. He'd been trekking towards Hyrule Castle Town since the sun had come up and he had only now reached the gates. After his adventure in the woods fighting Onox, he was tired and he felt bruised and battered. His armor felt heavy, pulling him down and making him feel weaker with every step. He let out a heavy sigh, rubbing the back of his neck. He could only imagine what had been happening since Onox had managed to escape with the artifact. He rubbed the back of his neck, occasionally glancing upwards into the sky, it was quite interesting.
Seayn froze when he first heard the screaming, suddenly alert and looking for the cause. He began to run frantically looking for the source of the disturbance. This wasn't the sound of a joke, it was the sound of multiple people in mortal danger. He didn't know what to look for but he could see fleeing humanoids now, running from... something. He skidded to a halt, frozen at what he saw. This wasn't normal, not even close. This thing... he could see was obviously not natural and it appeared to be different from anything he had ever seen. The young man froze for a moment, fear overcoming him as he stared at this obviously undead thing. Seayn made his shield appear, staring in fear at this monster.

Hadrian was down in the town, walking the streets by himself. He had been cooped up inside all day and he needed some fresh air. On his back was his blade, Buster Brave and in his grip was his pure white staff, Yggdrasil. His blade, he took everywhere, that staff, he took with him most of the time. There was an ominous feeling that drifted on a bitter wind, Hadrian didn't like it.
And to confirm his feeling, beams of light and dark filled the sky. This couldn't be good, not with all the events that had preceded this. Next. Next were the screams, blood curdling screams. Hadrian dashed through through the town towards the screams. He was trained to run into danger instead of away; twas the way of the Knights. To protect the innocents whenever possible and cast forth all evil from the world.
He searched the street for the source but screams were coming from all different directs as more people were struck down. His heart pounded against the inside of his chest, the people needed him and he couldn't find out where it was coming from. Standing around wouldn't help so he continued running to where he thought the screaming was coming from.

x x Jackal hadn't been in Castle Town long. In truth, that was mostly because she was still a wanted criminal. She couldn't risk it. But even she needed things, and she'd slipped into town to purchase some healing lotions to salve a scar she'd earned in the wild. It was a lucky thing she did.
She was perched atop a building when she saw the guard get hit by a shard. At first, she moved to help ... but then she saw what he'd become. She was content to watch it, wondering if the poor man was still sane, until she saw him kill someone. Her ears went flat against the back of her skull, and she thought,
That thing needs to die
Immediately, she leapt from her building and landed before the creature, all the while shadows pooling about her, gathering her strength. Her cloak was discarded, and she was ready to fight.
But not all the way ready. Without saying anything, she transformed into her Night Dragon form, muscles and bones expanding and growing until she was a great, terrifying dragon at least 12 feet long. She stared at the creature, and let out a piercing, terrible roaring shriek.
Whatever it is. It'll burn.

All around, it could see others coming, swimming against the flow of darkness, coming to kill it. Such blasphemy could not be tolerated. The valiant defender was quaking in his boots, hiding behind his shield. The old knight, trampled by the sinners he had sworn to protect. And the dragon.
Well, the dragon just had to die.
she's dark she's evil she kills she maims she steals she covets she sins
It answered the dragon's challenge with a shriek of its own, announcing its judgement with such noise it was almost a solid thing, settling around the dragon like a shackle.
"KINSLAYER"
It struck, leaping up and on to the dragon's head, ripping and tearing and searing so the blood of sin would boil in the wound.

x x Before, Jackal had been determined.
Now, she was pissed right the hell off. She shrieked again, but this time it was angrier, more pained, and more wild, as she shook her head, blood running across her eyes, which were glowing fiercely. Even as blood stained her vision, she could see everything perfectly, see the unnatural insides of the creature in front of her. That was all she needed to find her target. In this form, she couldn't speak or communicate, so she just prayed that the other warriors who had shown up would know what to do, and would at least take the initiative while she was engaging the monster. Summoning the herculean strength her dragon's arm possessed, she lashed out with one huge, bladed arm once, then moved forward to maul it again, attacking with all the wild abandon of a big goddamn dragon that just had a demon-midget maul its face off.
Okay so that was literally what happened.

Seayn felt his stomach twist in fear for a moment. This being wasn't reasonable and it had just started to slaughter citizens out of the blue. He had to stop it somehow, it would have been a massacre if it hadn't been intercepted by that dragon. He would have to assume for now that this monster was his ally for now, considering it was attacking the monster. Seayn had to help in some way, this dragon didn't appear to expect the skeletal monster to attack, leaping on to his face and beginning to rip and tear at its face. The young knight was snapped out of his moment of paralyzing fear. He ran forward, his shield ready and in the defensive. Just because he was supposed to be attacking this thing didn't mean that he should charge in without thinking of a plan. He glanced warily at the dragon for a moment unsure of its intentions. Seayn cautiously jabbed his sword in, testing the monster with Excalipur, twice. He didn't want to get in the way of the dragon tearing the monster apart.

Silver heard a commotion... it was obviously an attack. It didn't sound good at all. This whole nights didn't seem right. The light, the sounds. the strange eerie feeling welling up inside... as if something judging... was he just being paranoid....
"Looks like i'm gonna have to get into this... just can't shake the feeling that i'm being judged..." thought Silver.
Silver ran to a large stack of boxes. Useing them as steps Silver had easy access to the rooftops. Silver quickly ran across the houses spotting a few people and some strange human like monster. the thing was strange... not natural.... Silver lowered himself off the roof.
"What the hell? What are you?" Silver asked the creature.

Everything he heard only indicated that things were getting worse. Much worse. Citizen's screamed, rushing away from the danger, running into Hadrian in their escape. The old man continued, however, charging head long towards the danger. A roar echoed through the streets, louder than any scream he had just heard. Whatever it was, it was big and that didn't sit well with Hadrian. Then there was another, even louder shriek. What is going on?!
Faster he ran towards the noise, only stopping when he caught sight of it. The dragon was the first one he suspected of causing all this panic but it wasn't until he noticed the grotesque little demon attacking the dragon. Upon next glance he saw two others around that he knew, Seayn and Silver. Maybe the three, along with help from the Dragon if it was on their side, would be able to take out this creature. The dragon was already thrashing around, trying to attack the monster that was shredding up its face while Seayn was cautious about attacking. Hadrian remained far out of range of the creatures arm reach, holding a sturdy distance. Attacking now wouldn't be wise, not with two others right in the midst of things. What to do?
His mind started calculating. Of course, the monster needed to be segregated but they already knew that. Hopefully the dragon could toss off the monster.

x x Jackal stared at the strange creature with cruel, glowing eyes, and the cold observance of a snake, as she tried to recouperate after the attack. She felt ... strange. The wounds hurt like all wounds, but there was an unsettling finality about it. She felt as though these wounds would not stop bleeding soon, and as much as it hurt her, she knew she couldn't let this thing go free in good conscience. When it mauled the human who had bravely stepped in himself, Jackal had almost been concerned: but he was so well protected that not even the terrifying newborn god would hurt him. The part of her that wasn't a brutal mass of muscle and claws breathed a sigh of relief when she realized he was all right.
That meant she could proceed without any guilt whatsoever. She knew that it had some sort of protection, but when her eyes glowed, she could see every vein of blood both magical and plain, and she knew the secret ways to its heart. Hopefully ... hopefully she could kill it soon.
And then run out of the town before that Hylian Knight recognizes me and tries to bring me in.
She felt her shadows pooling, and they were nearly at full strength ... but she couldn't use them, not quite yet. When she did, though ... yes, when she did, this thing would burn. It wanted to purge the world? Well, she could purge, too, and her fire never left you.
For now, though, with her eyes glowing red, she charged at the dragon again, first swiping with one massive, deadly wing, then spinning around with alarming speed and stabbing it with her spiked tail, hoping to kill it. She'd never seen anything else survive such an onslaught, and she prayed she wasn't about to.

Perfect! Hadrian's trained eye witnessed the slightest movements of Odium, cocking itself down, preparing to jump, with its sights on Seayn. Reading enemy movements was a critical part of combat and he was highly disciplined in the combative arts. Hade reared back, his palm opened. In a split second, light energy poured from his palm, forming an eight foot long spear. The light was brilliant and almost blinding but just before Odium pushed off of the dragon, Hadrian launched the spear with almost divine accuracy. The spear aimed to hit Odium in mid air, moving fast enough that no one else could get in the way while it was hurling towards the Newborn God.
The creature looked foul and acted worse. Hadrian couldn't help but wonder if this had something to do with the Wind Mage, Vaati.

Seayn watched as the thing seemed to take severe damage. The dragon's hits looked incredibly powerful. He'd rather not ever know what that felt like. He knew that his sword had failed to make it through to injure this... thing. Yet it seemed as if this might be over rather quickly if things continued at this pace. If he kept it distracted while the others unloaded everything they had at it... Two other combatants had arrived on the side of "good" at least for the moment. One was Hadrian, an older Hylian Knight that he knew, yet the other wasn't known to him. Regardless, he was glad for the help getting rid of this monster.
The thing flew at him, its claws set to tear and rend him. He raised his shield, attempting to block the attacks. He could only wonder what had made that soothing female voice, the monster never opened its mouth to speak. He swung Excalipur at it again, although he already knew that it would have no effect. He stared directly into the face of the thing that had slaughtered innocent citizens then the gut wrenching sensation of fear tearing through him. What if this was because of him failing to stop Onox? Things seemed dire indeed.

that voice... it was soothing... strange the feeling of judgement was flowing from this creature. But the voice... it was of a woman's voice. possibly one of the fallen... it had to be. One thing was certain this had to stop. Silver figured there were about three people willing to stay in the fight. the odds still looked rather weak.
"For some reason i feel the sensation that you wish to judge all of those you come into contact with. Is this your way? is this the way you judge people? by killing them?" asked Silver. "If you wish to harm innocent beings, then my friend that is something that i can not condone."
There was always a rational side to all beings, hoping to get more answers from this being seemed the best route. Silver watched as the creature lunged at one of his allies. in one swift fluid motion Silver grabbed his boomerang and hurled it at the creature.

x x The Dragon stared and snarled at Odium, knowing better than to get between it and the human. With her huge talons and her deadly wings, any interference she tried to do would just wind up hurting the human even worse than it would have otherwise. Instead, she just started backing up, slowly, calmly, taking very measured, stalking steps, still low to the ground, glowing red eyes glaring out at the newborn god. She opened her mouth and let out a short shriek, hoping to warn everyone to get out of the way.
She was going to burn that thing to ashes, you see.
She reared up on her hind legs, her forelegs stretching out to their full width so that her chest could be as high as it could, her lungs as open as possible. Then she opened her mouth. All about her, shadows snaked along her tail and legs and wings, like oil, pouring into her throat, pooling in her mouth, somehow not causing her to choke. When the full number of shadows she controlled had been swallowed down her gullet, she closed her mouth. She looked at Odium. A low rumbling growl came out of her chest, and she could feel that her dragon form would not last much longer. She opened her mouth.
And hell spewed forth. Pitch-black flame shot out of her mouth, before it forked into three flames, each of them taking on the form of a serpent, binding around Odium in close loops until all three flames reared up, and struck at once, dealing massive damage, made worse by the power of her Night Dragon form.
Now burn.

It was so fast... this thing was very fast... the world seemed to be spinning for a breif moment. Pain. Deep pain infected Silver's body. hot red blood spurted out covering the ground.
"Uhhhhhhhhhh, Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"
Silver's breathing became heavy... the blood dripped down his clothes... it's teeth were sharp as they dug into the skin. Silver pushed the creature off of him and stumbled backwards. though as if a light turned on his pained expression changed.
"heh... heh heh... aha, a... ahahahaha." Silver started to laugh. for a moment it sounded light sobbing but as it continued it was defiantly laughter. it was loud and cheerful. "Hahahaha! Wow... i have to admit...... i'm impressed friend... you got such a hit on me, I must say i'm impressed at your speed, your attack was also admirable......... though with this i can't let you live... ya know......" the small smile grew into a smirk. it was funny. sure there was an unbelievable amount of pain.
Silver held up his bow and aimed it at the creature. Silver pulled the bowstring back. in the middle of the empty bow an ice arrow formed. Silver was using his ice type abilities. the tip of the arrow was interesting. instead of a normal arrow head there was a small drill. Silver knew if he could only get the arrow to spin as it soared it would dig right into the creature.
"let this arrow strike true! Ice Drill!" shouted silver making up a name for the arrow he had created. sure his ice ability was active but it was an old habit to name his attacks. Silver released his arrow and it soared right towards the creature. Silver then drew his sword and prepared for a counter attack from the creature.
Actions- attack (arrow), Guard Abilities activated: ice ability. cool down 3

Hadrian took to note that the element of light had no effect on the monster. But because it was affiliated with light didn't make it good in nature. None of his attack spells would work on it.
"It looks like I need you once more, old friend," Hadrian whispered, grasping the hilt of his sword, pulling it from the sheathing. The blade was brilliant, crafted with mastery, and to any other person, the sword would weigh well over three hundred pounds but Hadrian carried it as if it weighed nothing. It has been a long time since Hadrian needed to wield it. He charged into the fight, beginning with a quick, accurate slash at Odium.

Seayn could see that the only person that had currently done damage was the large dragon while everyone else's attack seemed horribly ineffective at the moment. Hopefully this dragon would be able to finish this thing off before it killed again. This monster leapt on to another man, moving so quickly that he couldn't even follow its movements with his eyes. It proceeded to tear into him with ferocious abandon, blood flying everywhere. This boy wouldn't be able to take another hit like that. He was going to be killed if that thing came at him again. Seayn made his way towards the reckless man. "You should have retreated and protected yourself rather than attacking again." With Silver still being in range, he needed more protection.
Hadrian charged in, swinging a gigantic sword at Odium. The young man wasn't sure if that was smart either but hopefully it would keep this monster distracted while the dragon finished it off. Shadows shot out, surrounding this monster in dark power before they all struck at it, in a powerful wave of shadows. Seayn turned to look at the dragon, finally clearly in view rather than covered in moving shadows. It was just as fearsome as he had assumed before, yet now uncovered it didn't have a mysterious aura of menace like it had before. He shoved his sword towards the monster, hoping to hinder it slightly with Excalipur, although that was unlikely.
