Luna raises one of her eyebrows as Enit's face strains. Why does she even bother... The only times he listens is when she brings news to him. She hears movement close by. "Hm?" She says.

Enit makes only to open his eyes and turn over his shoulder frowning at Luna when a disruptive force suddenly gains around him. He lets out a painful scream as a clenching metal wire is wrapped around his arms and upper body, forcing him to step backwards as the sharp wire cuts itself through his fabric and burns the skin on his arms and torso, making the elven king's attempt of freeing himself fail. A group of wild savage believers ambushed them, having the glowing high elf as their target for a sacrifice. Luna was surrounded by five agile wildlings with spears and weird jingles on their light armor. Jumping back and forth while snarling and howling, they surrounded the warrior making her unable to reach the elven king. Enit gasps and looks to Luna, but before he makes to call out to her, a clasping claw of heavy metal shuts around the elf's throat and the king is left barely able to breath. The claw is attached to a metal stick held by a huge troll. The troll grunts before violently forcing the defenseless high elf to the ground in a painful moan. Enit tries to communicate with Luna, but the wildlings jerks the metal at his every move and more wires with hooks are attached to the king's arms and legs. Now having their price all wrapped up, the troll and a few others started to drag him away by the metal wires, while the rest turned to the rogue.

(Ooc: I hope this makes it for you xD Let me know if there's something you want changed.)

Rain sighed and transformed back to her tiny self. It would be easier to travel this way. Rain looked at the tiny white fox and smiled.

"Alright ya little snowball, we had better get going!" The little fox yipped and stood before the skunk, a sharp and quick flame rushing over her body. As the flame dissipated the fox had turned into a large nine tails again.

"I am ready to go!" the little fox shouted with excitement. Rain jumped on the fox's back and they ran off into the woods.

"I'll be back soon guys!" Rain shouted back to the castle.

"Zen!" Ryuna cried out some what annoyed, "where the hell is that dragon?"

A wide form covered the sun above Ryuna as Zenos soared overhead, descending over a clearing not to far from where Ryuna was searching for him. In a way to show off, Zenos soared skyward, tucked his wings, and dove straight for the ground, landing with a great crash as trees bent beneath his wings and the unfortunate saplings that broke beneath his large body. Shortly after touchdown, Zenos folded his wings and began his transformation into the humanoid form he often took. His wings became a flowing cape, his head turned into greathelm with his own head as the crest, and a vaguely humanoid head peered out from within. Only his glowing golden eyes were easily spotted. His scales turned into an elaborate full-body suit of scale and plate armor. Satisfied with his transformation, he turned to look in the direction he saw Ryuna.

"Speak of me, and I shall appear. What is it you need, Ryuna?" His voice was deep, commanding, and carried the wisdom of centuries in its tone and cadence.

It all happens so fast and her first reaction is trying to cut the rope but most of it is wire. She gives up on it and decides she's going to have to kill them. Damn bandits. They must be doing one of the sacrifice things. The crazy bastards. A few giant trolls and humans surround her and start to close in. She slashes a humans neck making them flop on the floor, gasping for air and bleeding out. A troll swipes at her with it's giant club and she blocks most of the damage with her arms but it sends her flying. Another then grabs her by the neck and trying to make her pass out from lack of air. She chokes as she watches the king get dragged away. The troll breathes in her face making her smell his breath like he ate sludge, which he probably did. She stretches her arm out and knifes fly out of her sleeves jabbing into the troll. It drops her and screams out in pain. She unsheathes her thin sword and slashes the trolls legs making it fall over. She finally brings it down by jumping on it's back and stabbing it's head. She looks around to find that they left her and prioritized the king to be sacrificed.

She had cuts and blood all over her but she follows the ground that Enit was dragged along to find the camp. There were small huts and a bonfire in the middle. Enit was still in ropes on the ground next to the fire on a small board. It seems they are already starting. She sneaks through the treeline to get the closest she can to the unconscious king. She squints her eyes and realizes they are eating right now and that Enit is regaining consciousness.

She squints her eyes and realizes they are eating right now and that Enit is regaining consciousness.

Enit couldn't do much else than finding ways to breathe while being half dragged half carried away by the troll and savages, but now that he had been lying still for an amount of time, he opened his eyes slightly. His desperate sending for any kindhearted creature did not reach farther than the trees around him, who wept at the king's condition. The trees and the blonde elf was so unfamiliar to each other that they had troubles grasping his mental message and send the mortifying cries quickly enough to his kingdom and allies. The trees could only move uneasily to lure the savages away from Luna and the king. Enit was determined to get more in touch with the forest- if he survived that was. He felt the anger towards Ellarion, who had taken his mind of the forest and made him unsure of what to devote his time to, but now he knew: he'd give himself entirely to the forest, and his realm. The sensation of having Luna nearby gave the king strength to stay awake. He wasn't sure of her direction, but hoped she'd come get him soon, having the metal, fire and foul minds of the savages weakening him.

Ears twitched slightly as the fox trotted up to the dragon-now-human, "Enit asked me to come find you." She started, "Seems like a war is brewing under our noses."

Luna quickly moves in signalling the king to stay quiet. She silently starts to saw the rope away hopefully with nobody noticing but unfortunately this isn't a fairy-tale with there always being a good ending. This is the real world and bad things are bound to happen. A human bandit notices her but stays quiet as he sneaks up behind her. She almost cuts the ropes free until he starts to strangle her and push her towards the fire. It alerts everyone else and suddenly, a man comes out of a hut and shouts stop. "We'll use her to." he says. It seems she is going to be sacrificed too. Her weapons are taken from her while she is still pinned down by multiple people now and then bound to a wooden board. Legs tied and arms tied around the back of her head, she can't really do anything.

Enit calmed as Luna closed in on him, and the elf stayed still as a dead rock watching Luna work on the wire around his torso- it felt like one of the longest waits Enit had to endure this last century. The metal stung his skin and he couldn't wait until it was cut entirely. Unable to make Luna aware of the sneaking savage before it was too late, he let out a painful growl as she was pulled brutally away. He'd instinctively tried to break himself free, but had to give up as the metal bored itself deeper inside his arms. He hadn't felt this helpless for millenniums, and he'd sobbed like an infant had it not been for the fact that he could barely breath as the troll hadn't removed the claw clenching around his throat, he'd just dropped the metal stick on the ground.
Even though the metal made Enit dizzy at the lack of air, he jerked and twitched to fight the metal while witnessing Luna be bound and pushed around like a piece of meat. The royal blonde elf started to get desperate and closed his eyes to channel all his energy to shape shift to a smaller animal- a small white rabbit, but he hadn't done that for ages and was too weakened by the metal's damages. He also made a choice when giving up the shape shifting; he could get away as a rabbit, but refused to leave Luna, who had fought for him with her own life. There was also something about her that had happened a while ago in the forest. Opening his eyes back up to see to her, he tried to call out, but all he made to do was grit his teeth at the stinging pain of the metal already having pushed itself deep inside his skin in both legs and upper body. Was he really going to die like this? Enit's anger made his mind even more blurry and he started desperately to press against the already damaged wire around his torso, only deepening the wounds so he bled through his clothes.

The heat of the fire is intense as she is hoisted above it on the wooden board. Getting the ropes loose would just mean that she falls into the fire now. She struggles, trying to get free anyway as she could probably stop the fire quickly and then get out. Wait. What about Enit? She glances around, looking for the bound king to see him right next to her. "Great." she mutters. This is probably the most embarrassing way to die ever. By some chavs wearing red robes and burning people alive as 'sacrifices'. It only counts as a sacrifice if they are willing to die for the 'god' they are worshiping. That's how she saw it anyway. The boards they are bound to suddenly get closer to the fire. She knew better than to blow it as it will just fuel it more.

The fires increased the burning of the metals decorated around the elven king, and even though it damaged his body and the excited screams from the savages was excruciating, it was barely noticeable for the elven king as his bodily senses were faltering along with his life. He bled from his torso, legs and arms, and the claw around his throat made him unable to move as it dragged him further into unconsciousness. However, the radiating energy pulsing from the sky kept him awake. It kept his mind on Luna, who seemed to receive the pulsating energy. Why would this young rogue receive the crying from the new born stars? Enit was utterly confused as he was dying when the stars was reborn- had he been such a disappointment that the stars doomed him? Enit wanted to look at Luna one last time before he died though, and felt a different kind of warmth when thinking of her and his other creatures. He thought about Pheon, who would have sensed the king's agony by now as they were both connected through all their years together. He sent a warm good bye to the bird, and knew the bird would probably be too late for his rescue. He wished them all well before he slowly started closing his eyes.


(Ooc: Pheon will sense the king's closing in on death and feel a somewhat drawing towards his whereabouts. The closer Enit is to death the higher alarm will sound in Pheon, I imagine. But it's up to you how it goes. And Luna really needs to get things going asap. xD)

"I'm glad you guys seem to agree on our King's terms. Perhaps we can continue this peace!" Rain finished as she handed the paper to men in long silk robes. The tallest one was a darker skin elf, with long black an white hair and a long face, he looked almost like an old horse.

"I am glad you decided to bring this to me right away. We will be sure to keep this in mind as we confront our issues with our enemies the Decrids. Perhaps your king could aid us if we continue to agree to these terms?"

"I'm sorry, sir," Rain began to say slowly, "but when we ask not to have this war cross our borders, we also mean we will not aid any parties involved in the war." The old elf looked down a Rain and frowned.

"This is disappointing." He stroked his long chin. "Your king should reconsider, for we are battling for the greater good!" He shouted his last few words. Rain shuttered and smiled sheepishly.

"That is something to discuss at the next summit!" Rain backed away and jumped onto Snow Ball's back. "We shall return again to check up on your health."

Snow Ball jumped from the window and transformed into a large fox. They flew over the vast forest back home.

"I sure hope this blows over," Rain said to Snow Ball, Snow Ball only yipped.

The great Phoenix and the battered assassin Luna was escorted inside the entrance of the great halls by the guards of Enit's kingdom. Upset at the sight of their severely wounded elven king, the guards rushed to fetch a litter and all the healers of the halls. Two guards rushed to find the well spoken of healer Rain. Luna made sure to keep Enit on the bird's back, surrounded by healing feathers to keep the elf barely alive- The metal had made the elf hot with fever and blood kept running down from his thighs and ankles as well as arms and hands. Even though the sharp metal had been removed from him, the effects was so severe that the usual fast healing elf would bleed to death if not quickly tended to. Across his torso was torn and bloody clothes above the torn and burnt skin. It was easier to breath now that the metal claw around the elf's throat was gone, but burnt marks and bloody wounds covered the delicate skin, stinging him with pain by every move. Pheon moved uneasily and felt his life companion's misery, squawking along with Enit's few moan's in agony.

(I made it like this so Baby Panda could play the rescuing scene with me later, but for now I just made them return so you others can join in. As planned: Rain will show up to heal Enit. I'm not sure how to make the dragon and the fox return, any ideas? --- And what is Zero doing? : 3 ? We've been making some history between them, maybe you can add that to the character history if you haven't done that already, Zero. - You ok, guys?)

Snow Ball moved quickly and with little effort over the forest, she twitched an ear as she felt Rain grasp tighter at her fur. The now large and strong fox gave a loud yelp to get Rain's attention. Rain only shook her head and looked over the horizon.

"Sorry, Snow Ball," Rain said in a low voice, "I haven't felt this in a long time... like there is something I need to do." Snow Ball only yipped as she looked down and flew to the castle. Rain hopped from the fox's back as she morphed back into a small fox. Rain lifted her nose and realized what it was. Rushing into the castle she saw Enit laying in pain bleeding from large gashes and scars that seemed to fester all over his body. "Enit!" Rain shouted as she ran into the room, the smell of blood filling her nose, she felt as if this had happened before, and she felt the same fear. Rushing to him she let her body transform into her original state to see better.

As she reached him she looked over his weakened state and frowned. "Looks like you got hit with metal..." Rain whistled for Snow Ball to grab her medicine bag. As Snow Ball approached, Rain grabbed a single bottle from her bag, it had some scribbled words on it that said "If Enit is Injured by Metal, Keep Safe!" Rain let the thick gel fall into her hand as she shouted for the others to removed the bloody clothing, there was still a lot for her to do before the foul paste was read to be applied. "Enit... are you okay?"

(Please post in the right areas, that way it's tidier and easier to make sense of. Like this scene is happening in the halls. So just cut out this text and post it in the halls under my last post, and leave this one blank, or with a message regarding the change:) Aight?
Hahaha, nice bottle btw, hahah!)

Zero walked around the castle enjoying the beautiful art that hung on the walls. He turned around quickly as he saw two guards rush by. "What's the hurry?" Zero asked them quizzically. The first guard turned around quickly. "The king is hurt and we must find the healer Rain." he said as he turned back around and rushed off again. Zero's eyes went wide for a second as he ran through the halls following the scent of the king. "My lord, who did this?" Zero said with a sense of worry in his voice. He looked away wishing not to see the blood that was there.

(IN THE HALLS sorry about that)

Rain had finished adding mint leaves, camillyne and ballenus to the wounds and began to liberally rub the thick aloe gel deep into his cuts, the feeling of the cooling gel against her hands made her feel assured that the healing would come soon. The next step was to make that nasty slogging swill that she often used to help dull pain and slow infection. The mixture was already crushed and in another glass jar that she quickly dumped into a bowl.

"Quickly!" Rain shouted with a stern voice, "Add warm water to this and have Enit drink it!" Rain sighed, hoping her friend would heal soon. "There was an awful lot of blood loss... Why didn't you just let me come with you?!" Rain whispered, her feelings welling up inside until a small tear filled her eye.

Before either Rain or Zero had reached the dying king, Luna had been escorted by some guards to the healing houses. When Zero arrived, Pheon was complaining loudly for Rain to come. It made the guards speed up with the latter to carry Enit to his personal healing house. The elven king was in no condition to speak, only ragged breaths hot with fever.

(Copy of Rain's post from another place. Please post in the right places from now on xD That way it is easier for people to see the consistency:

The deluded elven king tried, but was too weak to protest against his removal of clothes, and could only answer his personal healer by ragged breaths and groans of agony as the foul metal poisoned his body. The guards would soon return with the latter to carry Enit to his personal house of healing, where he had not stayed for millenniums.

(In this post I have tried to entwine the tiny mess, so don't feel too overrun, Zero. Try the best you can to make Zero fit into this.)
