The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 5 authors
Mund's strategy did not go as he planned. The lion beast-man hand stretched over Mund's neck and the collar, missing completely. Fortunately. When Clanwind moved, dragging the aircraft along by the chains connected by harpoons, every one of the prisoner escort grabbed on to anything that they could reach to prevent themselves from falling down or thrown about. At that moment, one of the wolf beast-man retrieved the mana filled vials from the female elf's hands. "I'm sorry, Eámanë's." He quickly prepared a multiple teleportation spell for everyone in the aircraft, hoping to use the stored mana to cast the teleportation spell when it's ready. It would take a moment but hopefully there will be enough time. Their backup will be there soon and will find them. Although the aircraft is almost completely broken, the aircraft's signal was still working well. The prisoner escort hopes that the raider's don't realize it.
"You missed." Mund teased. He wanted another chance to use ki or mana. He could sense the flow of mana again, from the ship. They were preparing for some big spell. probably to get out of their mess. "I promise if you survive this you'll be sold to nice owner." Mund insulted to try and get another attack at him.
The lion beast-man growled. Fire was building inside him, mixing in with the sorrow of losing his long time friend. He slowly reached for Mund's neck once more. "I'll rip you apart!" he roared. The lead wolf beast-man did not try to stop the lion beast-man. The deal with Mund was broken in account of him failing to inform the true location of his crew.
The human pilot placed one of his hand beside his ear where the headpiece was. "Yes! Yes we will do that!" he suddenly exclaimed. He then ran back to the others, abandoning the pilot seat. There was no longer useful piloting the aircraft when it is tied to Clanwind. While he was at the back, he knelt down and opened one of the cases under the seat. Inside were Mund's belongings, his helmet, armor, and weapons. "Not this shit!" The pilot shut the case and opened the next one, revealing some military weapons and explosives.

Mund saw his weapons. he saw a chance. The lion grabbed him by the neck and Mund smirked. He knew what was happening next. Clanwind would pull a few of the harpoons and create holes in the vessel, then some raiders would zip line by the other ropes and help him out. But for now Mund was on his own. Mund was large, and he didn't need ki to kill a man. He kicked he beastman in the chest from his sitting position, trying to push him away, then he bent his legs up to his chest and pulled his hands from behind his back, he attempted to make a quick dive from the weapons so he could get his ax, if he could then he could get Clanwind some more time.
Rasbar took a look at the craft and saw the harpoons in it. "Make the entrance." Rasbar said. The ropes were enchanted, and when a few word were uttered to the ropes they stiffened like steel, then one of the ropes began to be puled back, the barbing on the rope would make a should make a big hole in the ship.

Unfortunately for Mund, his sheer physical strength wasn’t strong enough to pull the lion beast-man whose body was larger than his. At first, the lion growl and raised Mund from the floor, glaring at him with a snarl. He raised his other hand, ready to rip Mund’s face. “Stop Poku! We have no time for him! Let’s escape!” exclaimed the pilot as he took out grenades from the cases. When the raiders jerked the harpoons, the walls of the aircraft abruptly broke away, wild wind blew inwards. Everyone was shocked, widened eyes turned towards the gaping hole. Before the raiders could zip line in to the aircraft, the pilot quickly pulled on the ring of one of the grenades and left it in the case. “Aruffin! Teleport us now!” he ordered the wolf beast-man. Poku saw what the pilot did. He quickly shoved Mund into a tight space. “Die!” he roared and grabbed Eámanë's lifeless body. Aruffin activated the teleportation spell on his companions and with that, they were gone, leaving the approaching raiders and Mund to their demise in the soon to explode aircraft.

The backup for the prisoner escort has been following the signal from the aircraft. They were three battle airship as large as Clanwind. It would've taken them sooner to reach the aircraft's position but Clanwind has taken them further than expected. Finally, they reached place where the aircraft's signal was constantly released. They didn't see Clanwind, only a few flying whale which was a common sight in Afukira. The three backup battle airships have been hiding in the clouds and been in contact with the aircraft's pilot. They surrounded the aircraft's signal and secretly attempted to disrupt the hidden enemy's detection radar with a machine built by Brunomian's engineers. A plan have been accumulated. They waited for the signal from the aircraft to put the plan in motion.
A soft creak could be heard under all the hustle and bustle of one of Demotia's liveliest districts, as a near unnoticable and unimpressive door to the underground opened up. As it swung open, there was only darkness until a soft, red, glowing circle illuminated. Crawling from the shadows and onto the street, a male figure stepped out and flipped the hood of his blood red hoodie over his head of obsidian colored hair. He wore deep black pants, equally dark boots, and most curious of all, a gas mask, with the right eye cover cut away, revealing the flesh and eye of its owner. Malthus Vracken, a son of Venash, had finally come out of hiding under the noses of his siblings to begin his plot in claiming his father's throne.
Kicking the door shut behind him, he spoke a quiet incantation that locked the door; with this arcane lock, the door could be torn asunder, only to swiftly rebuild itself and block all access. Only he knew the spell to lock and unlock it, because he made that specific spell for that specific door. He shielded his eyes until they adjusted to the bright lights and bustling crowds. While this type of place wasn't his forte, it only gave him inspiration for the twisted landscapes he created in hallucinations and nightmares. With a sigh, he looked around, proceeding to move forward to make his mark. All the while, he hummed a haunting, twisted, and demented version of a child's melody, something akin to the one about the mockingbird.

Mund saw his nearing doom. He attempted to leap from the aircraft, he would either die of an explosion, a sudden stop, or Clanwind would save him. Better chances falling than in a death trap rigged to explode.
Rasbar looked into the hole of the ship and saw Mund about to be killed by a lion beastman, but then he stopped. Rasabr saw a flash of metal, the placing of that thing, then a mad scramble. An explosive. "Get Mund out of there!" Rasbar called in his mind. The mages grabbed Mund with invisible hands and attempted to pull him out of the aircraft and the power should launch him to clanwind. The mages were getting tired, much longer and they'd pass out.

A mother and child was walking through the dark narrow path that Malthus was taking. The mother was busy caring for her child, eyes not focused on her path until she bumped into Malthus. "Oh," she said startled and quickly bowed down slightly with a smile creased with her lips, "I apologize"
Malthus shifted as he stumbled back a bit. A slight muffled sound of heavy breathing came from the filteration system of his gas mask. After a moment, he approached the woman slowly, a twisted grin on his lips under the mask. The look in his visible eye screamed "madman" as the red glow came into the covered eye, becoming vibrant and intense. Flicking his wrist, he revealed a glove hand as he lashed out at the woman, going to grab her by the face. The "x" on his glove was glowing as his conjured up his arcane abilities. He planned to put the woman under a hyper-realistic hallucination... and kill her with fear. "Apology...Rejected~"
The woman winced when Malthus's palm filled her view. "What're you doing?!" she inquired, struggling "release me!" Her heart started to beat fast and pounding. She was afraid and panicking. Her vision started to change as Malthus's spell worked on her. "Let go of my mother!" begged the child, her daughter, pulling on Malthus's hoodie.
Arkantos was thinking a way to sneak in, check the map and act but these beastmen were blocking him. Arkantos wasted half minute to think a way to pass them. Procedure suggested; shock and paralize them. At the extreme, kill them.
Killing the couple might alert the other beast-men, especially the wolves that can smell blood. After that, render the bodies less visible: create a small shock field to block any attempt of communication. Successively, hide the bodies, he strategized in his mind. After Arkantos worked out the strategy, he took out from his backpack somewhat a ranged taser and approached silently toward the couple then aimed the beast-man nearest to him. After calculating distances, he fired, hoping to take him down.

Mund jumped out just in time before the aircraft, along with Mund's equipments, was blown to smithereens. A couple more explosions followed after the first one. Mund was free falling without the ability to use mana or ki with his hands shackled behind his back. His body suddenly stopped and hung in mid-air, motionless, caught by the mages of his crew before he went out of reach.

There it was; the signal. The true location of the disguised Clanwind was finally revealed by the multiple loud explosions of the aircraft. With Clanwind surrounded, the three military backup made their move, preparing their artilleries for an attack while connecting beams of light between their airships, preventing the use of mana within the triangular shaped sigil. They had multiple layers of one way protection shields up, enabling them to fire out through the barrier but blocking anything from entering from the outside. They were no longer interested in capturing the raiders alive.
The taser hit what was intended and electrocuted the goat beast-man on the engineering terminal. It's body began to numb and limply fell down unconscious. The other two goat beast-man remained to focus on the holographic screen, oblivious to their fallen comrade behind them.
Matlhus simply ignored the child as he worked his magic, producing a twisted landscape in the hallucination, one filled with terrors and mind-scarring atrocities that any normal being would be smart to avoid. And he was piling it on, one after the other, constantly assaulting her mind with these images and simulations. What would seem like mere seconds in the real world felt like hours, days even in the dreamscape he created. If he didn't kill her from shock and fear, she'd either end up a vegetable, or going mad from what she had seen and psuedo-experienced. Almost as if to address the child, however, he began to sing a twisted and sickening version of a child's nursery rhyme. "Hush little child don't you cry...Your mommy's fighting and about to die...And when she's dead, well there's no shame...Cause life's really just one big game...~" He trailed off and turned his head slowly and unnaturally to the child. "...And she just lost..."
The child stumbled back, falling on her buttocks as sudden fright filled her heart. Although petrified, she could still muster a few stuttering words. "P... Pl... Please mister," she cried and tears wet her cheeks. The mother's resistance suddenly stopped and her body became limp, now only held up by Malthus's hands on her face.
Ubarra; Approximately 2,800 years ago
Thereka Mozaralt was agitated. This.....schoolmaster. He was definitely incompetent. He'd left her here, in his 'office', promising to return with her son in a matter of minutes. It had been an hour. She arched her back and spat a bit of venom onto the floor. She really didn't want to be here. She should be in the castellan's boardroom, whispering things in his ear-hole, poisoning his weak mind. She shouldn't be here, in this manky old hovel, moping about, waiting to hear what mischief her son had gotten up to. Just wait, she thought, just wait till we get home. Ill wring his neck.
The schoolmaster, an old, doddering wrym, reappeared in the hovel's entrance, astride a small, sickly looking specimen that she recognized, to her disdain, as her son.
"So." she said in a venomous, no nonsense voice, "What's he got up to, eh?"
The schoolmaster cleared his throat and his eyes darted from side to side. He was obviously scared of her, and so he should be, she thought. She had a frightful reputation, after all. However, he seemed to be afraid of something else as well, and she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Not that she had fingers, of course.
"Well....." he began "You know as well as anyone else, miss Mozaralt, that it is the duty of a young Goldcrest Wrym to grow up to be a ruthless killer. We are at war, after all, with hideous, necromancy - addicted amphibians who threaten to defile us with......magic. As you might have guessed, your son has murdered another pupil. Unintentionally, mind, but nonetheless the deed has been done. Now, normally, as Goldcrests, we wouldn't have a problem with this, as he is simply asserting his superiority. However, the way in which he has done this........deed.......it is......unnatural."
Thereka frowned "In what way?" she demanded
"Well........ um........" the schoolmaster squirmed. Then he let out a sigh. "Let me show you the body. Come with me." And he led them down a long dark corridor.
Her son stuck to her side "Mum," he began "You ain't mad, are you?"
"Aren't." She corrected. "No, Kelovius, I'm not mad. You were simply doing what you should've done. I presume the victim attacked you first? You aren't the type to go looking for trouble."
Kelovius nodded.What a disappointment, Thereka thought
The schoolmaster led them into a large stone hall. This was he classroom, she guessed, where young Goldcrests learned warfare tactics and how best to remove someone you don't like. In the corner lay a corpse. As she drew closer, a chill wind seemed to blow from nowhere. She inspected the corpse. It looked fine, up until she looked at the head. The head wasn't there. Only red chunks of offal and brain matter remained. The student's brain, and head, had exploded.
"Ma'am" the schoolmaster said hoarsely "It appears that your son has powers over mana, and whats more, its on a level we have never encountered before."
Thereka was speechless. She looked down at her small sickly son with awe and wonder. Then a cruel smile creased her reptilian lips. "Well, son, this could prove to be quite interesting." she remarked.

The successful stun and the comrades that didn't react to it was a good sign. If they were aware, they would care for themselves and flee, making battles easier. But if they'd slip away, they'd call for reinforcement and Arkantos does not want to fight a fleet of pirates. After the first goat beast-man fell, Arkantos unsheathed his swords and leaped over the engineering terminal, attempting to perform a series of slashes towards both unsuspecting goat beast-men.
The smaller goat beast-man instantly fell to Arkantos's slashes but not the larger one. It grunted in pain and turned to the source of the torment, facing Arkantos.
As the child began crying, Malthus threw the mother's limp body aside, his work here essentially done. After a moment he turned and seemed almost infinitely closer to the child, though it was just an illusion. Multiple copies of him began to form from the walls, street, and whatever else may have been around. The copies soon took on the same color, that covered eye's scope glowing a sickly red. All the beings spoke at once to her. "Though you may not know my name...You will never forget my face...Once your old ebough, you'll place upon me the blame...But no revenge you will take, not even to save your race..." He said almost hypnotically. Though, in reality, he was simply using the illusion to get away. Once he was far enough away, the hallucination would simply disappear. While he walked into Demotia's streets, he cackled quietly. "I think it's about time I pay my brother's throne a visit...~"
Arkantos saw the smaller beast-man fall and looked at the next, looking forward to beat it down. Of all three, he seemed the most tough and Arkantos prepared to face a proper fight. He looked and tried to detect some weak spots. Surely, his guard was prepared and it won't be easy to spoil weak spots. Focus.... attack while watching your enemy and learn its flaws. No one is perfect, thought the Clearwoodian assassin. After elaborating the strategy, Arkantos performed a quick dash and attempted to stab the goat-man. The attack could be easily parried, but in the following half seconds, Arkantos hope to find weak spots and attack them.
The large goat beast-man failed to see Arkantos's second attack being he was in the middle of turning his body. The side of his body was pierced by Arkantos's katana, causing him to moan by the instilled pain. Reflexively, his hand reach for the wound and caught the katana which was jammed in him before Arkantos could pull it out.
