[b]Hawkwood rose to his feet and drew a greatsword, staring at the trio before him [/b]
"[i]Thou Must forgive me..."[/i]
[b]The roaring of a dragon was heard, as the castle garden, inside the courtyard crumbled away and from it rose a dragon.[/b]

[b]Hawkwood backed up, as the Dragon blew Ice into the hallway where the trio stood.
Jeremiah tackled into Altar and the two fell behind cover, but Vince was encased in ice, unable to move. [/b]
"Go after Hawkwood. I'll deal with the Dragon!"

"OK, but what about Vince?" She replied as she summoned her sword and shield.
-
"I'll watch over him. Just get to Hawkwood." [b]Jeremiah rose to his feet, drawing his sword and jumping over the small wall onto the Dragon, leaving Altar alone [/b] >Assist Jeremiah >Go after Hawkwood
-
She goes after Hawkwood.
-
[spoiler]Good choice. If she tried helping Jeremiah, he would have died [/spoiler] https://imgur.com/qmjacTn [b]Hawkwood entered a tunnel, leading into a strange room that had an aura of religion around it. The Knight stopped beneath the large hand, turning to face Altar. [/b] "[i]Why would thou risk thy life to help these Knights? "[/i]
-
"I'm helping Vince. If wants to help these knights, then so do I."
-
[i]"Then you will fall."[/i] [b]Hawkwood raised his blade with his right hand, and pointed it towards Altar as he placed his left hand over his chest, touching his right shoulder. [/b] [i]"Surely you will deny me a good battle." [/i]
-
"Listen, I don't like killing, but I will if I must." She readies herself, raising her sword and shield.
-
[spoiler]That face when Hawkwood dissed her[/spoiler] "[i]Thou may make the first move. "[/i]
-
Her eyes flashed and her sword sends out a bolt of magic, straight for Hawkwood's chest. [spoiler]She mad boi[/spoiler]
-
[b]Hawkwood rolled to the side, and threw out a throwing knife with his left hand[/b]
-
She blocked the knife with her shield and began rapidly firing the bolts at at Hawkwood.
-
[b]Hawkwood sprinted through the room, getting behind the cover of the large hand in the middle. [/b]
-
Altar stops firing. "So, what's with the hand."
-
"[i]Thou Doth not understand. The Hand reaches toward the sky, toward the Gods. "[/i]
-
"Um...OK."
-
[b]Hawkwood spun out of cover, throwing two knives toward her [/b]
-
She ducked under the knives and ran forward, reaching cover behind a random crate.
-
[spoiler]....[/spoiler] [b]Hawkwood began moving forward, keeping his Sword up [/b]
-
[spoiler]...........[/spoiler] "Why is Kross doing this!?" Altar leapt over the crate and fired a powerful bolt at Hawkwood.
-
[b]Hawkwood rolled to the side, but it went over his shoulder and grazed it slightly, leaving a cut. Hawkwood visibly grimace, looking up at Altar [/b] "[i]Lord Kross has realized the error of these lands, Lord Kross will purify them. "[/i]
-
"Oh, he's gone loopy then."
-
[i]"HOW DARE YOU?! Lord Kross simply seeks to better this world. This land!"[/i]
-
"I'm sure Kross has good intentions but siccing his Abysswalker on people is not the way to better the land."
-
[i]"Artorias rescued Royal from the grasp of you mad ones! Why cannot thou understand?" [/i]
-
"Because of when he showed up. Vince was taking Royal to the infirmary. He was badly hurt and Artoes or whatever shows up and spirits him off."
