Everto walked through the old city, he was angry at the fact he had been jumped earlier, though they were just trainee paladins, they had still put up a decent fight, he had killed them all and burned the corpses. He was here to destroy a training camp that was being used by the Paladins of the Black Blade, they had recently stolen four heavily enchanted pieces of armor, they were meant to control the elements easier, maybe even a strong enough will could summon elemental forces at will... that was to dangerous to let the paladins keep it. He had killed the orc shamans that made the enchantments for the armor and wove the spells, he even took their notes and interrogated their apprentices about them, he soon pieced together a way to kill them, it was a simple process, he needed to disrupt the arcane scripts etched into the armor pieces, that would cause the enchantments to go wild and destroy itself... or explode violently, either way, they would be destroyed. He walked among the ruins of a street, seeing the flash of armor in the distance as two paladins walked towards him, their blades drawn and their shields up. One shouted out, "Surrender demon spawn or be destroyed like the rest of your brethren we've fought!" Everto rolled his eyes and pushed the glass back up his nose, his hands slipping into his pockets to fit his hands into the metal knuckles he carried with him. He smiled as he felt the heat rise in his mouth and body, his magic need not be spoken with some of the skills he had learned, though he still held up his hand and made a few movements, as if he was writing in the air with his index finger. It helped him concentrate on his magic, he felt the magic fill his body to the brim, the spell releasing, setting one of the men on fire from inside his armor, he screamed as if he was being tortured, which he effectively was, he was being burned alive. The other man turned and looked at his partner, burning to death and screaming in agony, he turned to Everto, but to little to late, the small half-demon had covered the distance, casting a second spell as he punched, his metal knuckles striking the man's groin as the magic missile fired off, sending the man to the ground, tears flowing over his face. Everto looked down at the final man and simply stomped on his face, he kept on stomping until the man stopped squirming, he was either out cold, playing dead, or dead, Everto wasn't taking his chances. He picked up the man's sword and thrust it into his mouth, leaving it there as he turned to keep on walking, wiping his foot off on one of their capes, he kept on walking, knowing this road would lead him to the training camp, and to the men he needed to kill. |

Aether Draka lay atop a partly intact roof looking up at the sky. She had her hair braided again, spread out in a wine colored fain behind her head. She wore a black silk covered corset over a long dress with silver roses embroidered on it. Both sides of the skirt of the dress were split up the sides past where it vanished under the corset. Under it she wore black tights and her winged boots. She had a single pouch on her hip, a silver necklace with the end of it tucked under her clothes and a silver bracelet on her right wrist with a stone set in it that was so dark it seemed to be swallowing the light around it... She had not been there long when she heard a shout and sat up. For a moment she thought they meant her, and she frowned when she heard they had been killing demons. How dare they! No wonder she was not finding any recruits! She would have to find a good way to return the favor... Her attention was drawn to the one they were addressing and she lay flat again, this time on her stomach, and watched. She readied a spell but was quite pleased she did not have to cast it. She rose to her feet as the 'demon spawn' below her started stomping in the face of the last foe. She watched him walk off towards where the pair had come from and a smile tugged at her mouth. She jumped down, landing without a sound and walked up to the corpses. AD looked down at them for a short time before following after the stranger. Her curiosity had been sparked. She made no sound as she walked, though her movement would be noticed if he did have any reason to look back. For the moment though, Aether Draka was content to just follow, watch and see what this man was up too. |

Everto kept on walking, though he felt something was wrong, no paladins were popping up, no sneak attacks, and worst of all, no signs of life. He stopped as he made it to an intersecting road, he looked and saw what he had dreaded, they were coming out in force. He back pedaled and raised his fists, looking as four paladins walked around each corner onto his road, four had crossbows while the other four had falchions, he grimaced as he realized the trouble he was in. He watched as the only one wearing a helmet, probably the leader, shouted at him, going through the normal spiel, why were these guys so talkative... oh well, it gave him time to prepare. He began silently casting his summoning spell, instead of waving his finger like he was writing though, he brought his hand up and bit his thumb, tearing off the top layer of skin and letting a small trickle of blood fall to the ground, the blood expanding and stretching until it created a summoning circle. The paladins immediately took action, aiming crossbows and charging forward, fools, they had no idea who they were messing with. Everto smiled as he finished the summoning with a few words, "Rise my otherworldly ally, Glaiser!" A green flame formed in his hand as he shoved it into the circle, immediately afterward, from the circle rose a golem made of glass, the crossbow bolts ricocheting off the glass golem instead of hitting Everto. He smiled and laughed as if he was enjoying himself, "Fools! Do you think you can beat me with those puny bolts! Just become my experimental subjects!" He held out his hand, writing in the air as his glass golem easily dispatched a paladin wielding a blade, while two more kept Glaiser busy, the final swordsman rushed Everto, shouting out a battlecry of some sort, it didn't matter, Everto was almost ready. As the man slashed at Everto's neck, Everto simply stepped forward and ducked, dodging the slash. The man looked on in fear as Everto brought his palm up at his face, a fireball flashing from his palm and incinerating the man's features, only his screams were heard as he died. He looked at the crossbowmen, one of the was shaken and ran, the others started to spread out, this wasn't going to be an easy fight. |

More voices, more men. She felt a bit of anger rise in her chest, creating a sour taste on the air. One thought was now confirmed. Paladins. Useless being who felt they had the right to choose who and what was good and evil! It was them and those like them that were the cause for her joining the Divshatten in the first place, long before she was it's leader. In her mind, the purpose of the guild was to provide a save escape for all demonic kind from the unfair and unjust acts forced upon them by such men and women. So called do-good-ers, they hadn't even managed to evacuate a city before it fell, children had been left to cope with hell fire and full blooded fiends from the abyss itself. Useless and self proclaiming idiots. What they were doing here was of no matter to her, AD would rather not have them even exist on Imythess at all. They had the gull to turn down her aid due to her heritage, ignoring the celestial blood, ignoring she had been trained by angels. She had been a demon slayer and they had forced her away from that, made her the foe... she was more then happy to return that favor now. She was following in his tracks still as a glass golem rose from the earth at his command. She decided to summon an ally of her own. She paused a moment and let the shadows pool before her before infusing them with magic. The shadows bulged and rose before her, revealing a full blooded demon with wings black as night and a long thing, spiked bow in one hand and a sword at her hip. Her skin was red with scales, but dark runes were etched into her very skin, shining with a dark power. With that done, AD continued walking.The following confrontation was quite amusing. One of the crossbow men saw her approaching and moved to aim at her instead. The paladin's aim changed and he shouted, "This one has a servant of some type! Blow the horn! Rally the... !" Her summons let her bolt go, striking the man in the throat. Another arrow was drawn, but AD stalled it's use, yet... Instead, she let the spell sanctuary close about her as she continued walking towards him even though he stopped walking himself. "Servant? I hope he didn't mean me. I don't serve anyone. Did he mean you?" She said, turning and gesturing to Everto. "Or perhaps he meant summons? No way to know now." AD shrugged. A pair of bolts flew at her but were deflected by her spell. She ignored it, for now. Her attention was still on the man she had followed to this point. |

Everto grimaced as he saw an arrow fly past Glaiser, sinking into one of the crossbowmen, either someone was a bad shot or someone was trying to help him. He turned to see a woman, she was easily two feet taller then himself... then again he looked like a ten year old or small thirteen year old, he heard her talk about servants, he gritted his teeth and silently cast another spell, the final crossbowman erupting into flames, his screams cut short as the fires even invaded his lungs, burning him from the inside. He looked as Glaiser easily overpowered the final two swordsman, the falchions snapping off pieces of glass that embedded into the men, soon Glaiser's sword-like arms just simply cut through them. He turned to the woman, looking up at her, "It doesn't matter what they mean or what they say, I'm just going to kill them all and show them that I'm one half-demon that shouldn't be messed with." He turned to Glaiser and snapped his fingers, the golem sinking into the ground, to wait for his next summons. He turned back to the woman again, "Thanks for helping me miss, but I'd like it if you could dismiss your demon, my blood is boiling just looking at it... makes me want to try to kill it, even though my own flames aren't hot enough to scorch it yet." He waited a moment to see if she would dismiss it before speaking again, "My name is Everto, these paladins are part of the Order of the Black Blade, they hunt demons, half-breeds of all kinds, and they especially hate half-demons. These stupid fools made the bad decision of spreading lies about me behind my back, even threatening things I hold dear. While I may thank you for helping me, I need to keep on moving, one got away and that means more ambushes and other nasty surprises, so unless you want to get swept up into a battle against a bunch of apprentice paladins I suggest you turn back." He doubted the woman would keep following him, he was about to fight a bunch of sword swinging monkeys, they had no holy magic at the moment making them only apprentices... then again maybe if she did follow she could use that demon... yes, that wold be quite effective. He kept his eyes locked onto hers, waiting for her reply. |

AD's head tipped slightly to the side as he spoke. He spoke quite a lot actually. When he said that the full demon behind her was making him upset, she gave a small gesture and it simply vanished, as if it had been an illusion, though the arrow still was lodged in the neck of the man. She was however a little disappointed with all his words and not a single question. He must have no idea about the game of questions. She also doubted it would be worth teaching. He seemed so serious, but killing fledgling paladins did seem quite a bit more efficient then coming across then fully trained. She grinned and clasped her hands behind her back, "No holy magic? That's too easy. Will those teaching them have it? If so I would love to come along just to mess with them before they die. It will send such lovely myths to whomever it is who gains their souls." She, however didn't wait for a reply and went over to the fallen men. She retrieved the arrow, swept back her hair, and pinned it in place with the arrow as if it was a hair-stick. "It, is after all, the source of their magic I am after..." she knew holy magic required a divine source, but as all the Gods of Imythess were gone... She wanted to know where the magic was coming from and if it would lead her to her goal. That trail had become weak, old, but this was quite something else. She was more then interested or mildly curious. With what he had said, she was now intrigued. She glanced back over to Everto. "By the way, don't call me miss or any other title. Just AD is fine with me." Weather he wished it or not she was going to come. If nothing else to see what else this small demon-blood had in store. She had learned long ago not to take size and appearance for granted. She was not going to ignore this Everto just because he looked like he could have his butt whipped by a domestic dog. |

Everto nodded, "Alright, if you want their source I can tell you that it's not here, at least not all of it. Though I'd guess at least ten real paladins are here along with the man who holds part of their holy power. I plan on destroying the artifact though, so I hope you don't want to use it, it's rather unstable." It was more then unstable it was like having a dozen silver dream cords in one hand while you used a githyanki silver sword in the other, the temptation to cut the cords was far to strong. He walked a bit further on, keeping a nice and even pace, breathing deeply to restore what little energy he used. As he walked he started to hear whispers, though they said nothing in the mortal tongue, it was more like a shifting breeze, it made Everto uncomfortable, he could feel it, something wicked was coming towards them. He was rewarded with the sight of a rather large and heavily scarred half-giant half-orc, he held a two handed battle axe and wore no armor, flanking him were three men, one wore a cloth robe and held a staff in his hand, the other two wore chain mail armor and had short swords and bucklers. The Half-orc giant spoke with a rumbling quality in his voice, making it sound like he had gargled gravel for a week before hand, "Everto, Half-demon, son of a lowly demon and a wild mage. As a paladin in the service of the Black Blades I must kill you in the name of our lord, Mistran. He who holds the gauntlets that were created to rip the holy power from the divine plane of water and ice. Surrender now or prepare to die." Everto raised an eyebrow, the paladin was far to... sure of himself, he didn't know why either. When he took a step forward, runes appeared in a circle around him, stretching five feet out from him, encasing him in a field of light. The man in robes shuddered a bit, as if he was laughing, he spoke up though after his tiny fit of the giggles, "It's nu uze Demon boy, le's jus' kill 'im now, no evile beast can get out of my Mysteriacal ward." Obviously the man was from out of the country, since he seemed to stumble over the words and butchered the language with relative ease. Though Everto smiled, no evil beast... he took a step forward and walked through, his body unaffected, he smirked, "Who said I was evil? I'm just rather cold and calculating, though with a bit of an angry streak." He brought the magic to the front of his mind, feeling the burning power as a fireball appeared in his hand, instead of the usual orange flames though, green flames erupted from his hand as he crushed it, the caster suddenly bursting into flames, the battle had begun as the three men charged forward, set on taking Everto's head.

"That's fine, I'm not looking for an artifact." AD shrugged in response to his words. She was still feeling a bit down by the lack of questions in his speech. It was rather hard to have a nice fun game like that... She kept pace with him and paused as the strangers appeared. They seemed to know him. They also seemed to speak quite a bit. Feeding her information without her having to ask it. Now she understood why Everto didn't ask her any questions. He never once had to play it. AD closed her eyes a moment, letting herself gauge the pulse of the magic in the air. The smell, scent, and feel of not only the spell before her, but of Everto's power as well. What they were doing did not seem to make any sense to her. Mistran and this gauntlet of his sounding very interesting though. She really didn't need the item itself, just to see if it was there... the dark taint she had felt swallow her best friend whole... if that being was behind this, if it still wished to destroy Imythess through the hands of another, she would stop that creature purely for revenge. It took Lynthaer from her. It forced them to act against their own wishes. She hated it more then the demon who had fooled Lynthaer. This being had fooled them all... Her eyes opened and stepping forward she ignored the circle of magic, passing through it much like Everto had. She was not about to loose track of him, not yet anyways. For now she was more then happy to follow him. She was learning some rather interesting things after all. There was no way to tell if they would be useful yet, but interesting was more then enough to keep her curiosity. For a brief moment, her fingers brushed agnst his arm, a feather light touch, and the spell Ebon Eyes gave him the ability to see beyond the Globe of Darkness let cover the area. Normally the spell would cover a 5 foot radius (10 food circle), but as AD had a specialization in regards to spell size, it actually swallowed up a 10 food radius (20 food circle due to Enlarge Spell Feat) centered on Everto. Taking two steps back and dropping to a knee, she took a moment to cast Ebon Eyes on herself. She didn't have time for more, so she keep still and let the shadows hide her in the magical darkness until she could see what the three remaining paladins had decided to do. From there she would find a target as needed. |

When Everto felt her touch he froze up for a second, feeling the enchantment take hold, his eyes turning black as night, the orb of darkness falling around him. He smirked as the paladins stopped, spreading out around the orb, probably waiting to either all charge in at once or wait it out, either way, thanks to AD, it was their win. He concentrated on another spell, bringing forth his magic missile spell, though it would glow green with his power and a tiny flicking flame inside of it. He let it launch out from his hand at the paladin circling around to the left, rushing out shortly afterward, he watched as the man dodged the missile, but couldn't dodge Everto's fist, impacting into the man's groin, his shriek was halted as Everto hopped upwards, bringing his fist up, colliding with the tip of the man's chin. He watched as he fell to his knees, he turned to see the half-giant orc already leaping at him, bringing a great two handed slash downward towards Everto. He smirked, hopping back and to the side while at the same time using one of his hands to knock the man on his knees onto his stomach, the axe head biting into the man's back, easily slicing through the chain mail and spine. He smirked as he easily circled around, only to meet the other paladin, he hopped to the right to avoid a thrust, sending a fist forward into the man's stomach, the chain mail cushioning the blow enough that it didn't knock the wind out of his foe. He felt the sting of a shield slamming into his body, sending him skidding to the ground. He stood up once more, bringing his metal knuckled fists up towards his face, putting up a strong frontal guard, he smirked, AD had free shots at the two men. |

She was having fun. It had been a long time since she had been hunting like this. It was interesting to learn information this way and drew strong enough on her curiosity that she at least wanted to see who this Mistran was. Paladins, especially when they organized like these seemed to be, were not much of a threat to her, but they were to her Guild. She saw Castor cast a spell and follow it out of the Globe of Darkness. It was then that she chose her own target. The big man looked like he would be easy enough to kill. The bigger they are, the harder they fall, right? She put her hand in the small pouch on her hip and moved about until her fingers touched the blade she wished. She drew it out, it's length impossible to fit in a bag that size, if it had been a normal bag. Her Blade of Chaos made no sound as she drew it. She made next to no sound herself as she moved. Nothing easily heard over the attacks at the most. She leaped up onto the back of the half-giant half-orc as he pulled his axe free of his short time ally. She drove her blade into his back. Her aim was a bit off because he tried to throw her off. AD missed his spine. Annoyed at this, even though it was a small area to hit to begin with, she shoved the blade deeper as the man howled. The blade was causing much more harm then it should, it's alignment directly attacking her target. The sound was cut off abruptly when she shoved her blade in far enough to skewer his lung. The lung collapsed, leaving him with only one good one and blood in his windpipe. She heard him gagging on the blood... She drew out her pair of throwing daggers then, and from the added height, tossed them both at the man near Castor, one after the other. One went in his cheek, though his tongue, and out the bottom of his jaw. This caused the man to turn on her for a moment, long enough for her second one to land right between the eye. It was funny to see them fall in slow motion like that. The brain dieing before the body realized it. Aether Draka felt the muscle flex under her, the large man tried to grab her or the blade and she gave the weapon a sharp twist so the blade's edge was vertical and yanked it downwards as she dropped off his back. He would be unable to pull the blade out on his own, the angle was wrong and it was in to the hilt. On top of all that, the blade could not be held by someone who was not Chaotic. She took a few steps away from the large man as he tried fruitlessly to remove the Blade of Chaos while no longer having the ability to breath. Her gaze turned to Castor and AD said, "There will be more soon. I'm sure they heard the sound. Do you have any qualms with Blink Dogs?" |

Castor looked at the corpses, nodding his head, yes, just as AD said there would be more coming soon to check and see if they had been killed, maybe it was time for an ambush of their own, he turned to AD as she asked him a question concerning his opinion of Blink Dogs, he smirked, "They're loyal hounds right? If they're on our side I would be appreciative of the help, if they're with our enemies... I would be fairly angry since the dogs can just blink into sight, blink out, and attack me from behind." He took a few steps forward, looking at the blade, he had a feeling that he should take it out for her... but something stayed his hand, he could tell something about the blade, it was enchanted to have requirements to be held, and he wasn't sure he met the requirements to pick up the blade. He turned back to AD, "I think we should set up our own ambush, give them a taste of their own medicine and have the element of surprise for once and give us an edge, they'll probably bring a lot of students here to show my corpse to, it'll be interesting how they feel about a few fireballs raining down at them." He smirked as he went to some of the fallen rubble of nearby houses, talking as he went, "We should find places to hide until they come, once they gather around the corpses of their fallen we should strike while they're bunched up, they way we can just slaughter them while they're surprised, sound like a plan?" He had finally made it to the rubble, he immediately dropped down to his stomach, half laying on the rubble to alllow himself to quickly and easily peer over it if needed, he had only one more thought,'I guess it's fine being small sometimes... it allows me to hide behind small mounds of rubble.' Now he waited, this was all he could do until the paladins came and saw their brothers in arms dead on the ground. |

As Castor said he didn't mind if the dogs were on their side, she pulled out her deck of summoning cards and flipped through them for the Blink Dogs. Finding the card as he started to walk, she tucked it under her shirt at the shoulder and near the collar so she didn't have to look for it. Slipping the cards back in her pouch she spoke to her Fly Dragon who she had by now woken up. "Turin, daggers." As the little Fly Dragon went to retrieve the dagger, one at a time because he couldn't carry any more, AD pulled her weapon from the fallen body. The Chaos Blade felt good in her hand and she wiped the blood off it onto the corpse. Then she followed Castor. Turn came back with one dagger, stashing it in her pouch on his own before flying off to get the second one. "I have a little trick if you like, an illusion, that will make someone think that you were killed instead of them." She crouched, balancing on her toes, near by and waited for a reply. If Castor didn't object to the idea, she would balance the Chaos Blade across her knees and retrieve her Blade of Illusions. The image before them would change. The half-orc half-giant would be standing there with blood on his axe. She left one armored paladin dead and the mage still standing where he had been giggling quietly to himself. In the circle that had no real effect on him was his own form, neatly split in two by the axe. After that settled as an illusion AD would slip into the shadows and more or less disappear. However, if Castor didn't like the idea, AD would simply nod, stand, and find a good stretch of shadow near by to hide in, disappearing completely in them as if she was not there anymore. From the shadows she could hear the sound of armor clanking. There were more then a few coming. She waited, going over her summoning spell in her mind in order to do it quickly as possibly. |

Castor smiled wide at the idea, an illusion spell would make them rush in happily, it would be the perfect ambush scenario, he looked to AD, "Please do it, that will give us the greatest ambush possible, this way they will have no guard, panic, and if we're lucky we'll be able to follow a few second rate paladins back to their main camp." He smiled as the illusion took place, and only moments later after the illusion took place, twenty paladins marched into the area, two of them wearing full plate armor, while the rest had patchwork leather, but all of them held longswords and bucklers, basic and effective equipment. Once they broke ranks and ran in, cheering loudly, once they got close enough Everto smiled as he prepared his spell, he focused on one with plate armor, he felt the flames at his finger tips, a green flame appearing in his hand, which he simply crushed, green flames appearing on the paladin, his screams only lasting a moment before the flames burning the air in his lungs. He ducked down as panic took place. He started on a second spell, he stood up and leaped on top of the rubble, lobbing a green fireball into the crowd, the second man in plate armor was hit square in the chest, his armor glowing red hot as it burned against his skin, Everto laughed as he looked down at them, "Fools! Now none of you can escape! Prepare to die!" He began casting another spell, he smirked, the next spell would set another one on fire, this would be a fun battle. |

She was glad he liked the idea and as soon as she saw the first man start to burn and moved, breaking free of the shadows that had hidden her. The paladins-in-training below were not sure what to do as she sheathed her blade of illusions and the illusions faded. It looked like Castor has somehow managed to kill all of them instantly even though they had already been dead. She held the summoning card before her and let the picture she had formed in her mind flow out of her via shadows. The shadows pooled before her, arcane script forming on the uneven ground before lifting off it to hover slightly over it. She held the card out and the shadows seemed to reach up and snatch the card from her hand. She took a step back as the summoning circle bulged out before four blink dogs burst free of the confines. The shadows scattered them, returning to their normal state. The blink dogs acted quickly to AD's mental command. They moved to encircle those remaining. As Castor leaped atop the rubble and shouted to those below, AD walked up to look at their expressions. There was panic, yes. And some fear. She decided to increase that. She shifted her weight so she was behind Castor and cast cause fear on those past him. Where she was standing they would not know if it was her or him which caused their fear. The panic rose with the fear and those who tied to flee in terror were being assaulted by the Blink Dogs. She saw one be dragged to the ground before loosing sight of him behind the broken buildings. She grinned and knelt down to pick up the Chaos blade where it had fallen when she had to have a free hand to summon. With the Chaos blade in her left hand and the Blade of Illusions in her right, she rose and pointed with the right with the Blade of Illusions, creating a new illusion not that she had dropped the first. Green flames sprang up between her and Castor and started spreading both directions, threatening to encircle all of those below. The Blink Dogs shifted opposite her and Castor as the illusionary fire burned to the half-circle point. "False circle of fire." She told Castor under her breath so he wouldn't expect it to actually kill any of them. To him, the illusion was real too. |

Everto chuckled as the ring of fire surrounded their foes, the blink dogs were making easy work of the paladins-in-training, blinking in and out of the circle of flames, smart dogs, soon there was only one choice for the paladins-in-training, run or die. A few broke through the flames, screaming in pain as their panicked feet ran, though they were taken down quickly, they were all dead thanks to the deadly blink dogs and his own fire magic. Everto chuckled as he walked towards one of them, he kicked his side and heard a groan, one survived. He crouched down and lifted the man's head by his hair, he smiled into his face as he spoke, "I suggest you answer me honestly and quickly, now tell me, how many more of you are there, where is the head paladin of this area." The man shook his head, mumbling incoherently, Everto rolled his eyes, he quickly slammed the man's face into the ground and then picked it back up, "Tell me before I let the dogs rip you limbs from limb... of course after I beat your face into a pulp, so tell me and I will spare you." The paladin groaned in pain, "T-the head paladin is g-gone only the c-commander Hanson is here! He holds th-the leg guards of wind, giving him super spee-" He was cut off as a spear pierced his back, a man wearing light green steel leg guards stood in nearby, he became a blur as he ran over, punching Everto away from the paladin he killed and picked up his spear, spinning it in one hand as he smiled, "Everto and... hmmm I don't know you, but it hardly matters, you've been helping him and now you will die." He rushed forward, thrusting his spear at Everto, who could only dodge to the side, the spear grazing his arm, a burst of wind coming from the tip of the spear sent Everto flying though. He landed hard on the ground, he laid there only for a moment before standing back up, raising his fists to fight, he would need AD's help to kill this man with extreme speed. |
