|| Countdown to X Day|| Sound Horizon ||
The struggle for Paris was an awful stalemate. Neither side was truly strong enough to break through the other, but it was only a matter of time until enough Barons answered Baron King Messiah's cry for help that they would be able to vanquish Doll's group of Generals, mages, and outlaw demons from Teranos. They were a small crew, but willing to bet on Doll King, willing to put their lives on the line for the strongest non-Baron demon to exist. But there was one ray of light they were hoping for, one trump card. The most powerful witch, Zinnia Evernight herself. Would she answer the call that Rainarch left for her? As Pray was bleeding out on the mat, it seemed the answer was no until someone apparated into the war camp. It was Zinnia herself, the ray of hope they were waiting for.
Wicked picked Pray up as gently as she could, Doll leading them to a medical tent where many other demons and mages lay, their injuries growing by the minute. "Take care of her! I'm going to go after Anguis and try to finish her off!" Wicked ran off back towards the street where she and Pray clashed against the master of snakes. A mist demon was hastily attending to them, tripping over herself as she tried to fetch them water. "Ugh, stop being so whiny! I'm doing my best here!" The mist demon ground her teeth, annoyed. "This is such a waste of time! Why did Doll put me on medical duty!" There was something she needed to do, she didn't want to be here anymore. Then she turned around to see someone very familiar. Her eyes lit up in wonder.
"Blithe, did you find a Zinnia lookalike? Is this a second Zinnia, or a replacement Zinnia?" The mist demon wagged her tail, her wings fluttering behind her. She touched the mage's face, patting her hair, examined her eyes before she was satisfied. "It's you! It's really you! You smell different. Exotic. Oriental?" She shook her head, it was probably the smell of Japan on her. "You're really here! I have great news, look! Look!" She pulled at her wrist, peeling off a layer of mist to reveal a mark of a lamb. Zinnia should know this very well. "My old contract mark came back! Yue's alive, Messiah must have brought her back, or maybe she was never fully dead?" The mark only appeared a month ago, but it was all the proof she needed.
Rain quickly filled Zinnia in on everything so far, on the alliance of Teranos, Magnolia, Generals, and even some of the mermaids from Ogygia were here. They all gathered under the hope that Doll King would topple the Baron King. "But the last few days have been hard. We have too many injured, and the Barons are too much for us to take on easy! Pierce and Anguis are especially annoying!" She whimpered, pointing to a discolored patch of mist on her hair, a part of mist that still hadn't healed up yet. "You're our only hope! I'm sorry, Zinny, I know you don't like fighting..."
"But if we wanna get rid of Messiah and save Yue, we need you!"
