Restlessness - March 15th - 2am Empty Restlessness - March 15th - 2am

He towered over the field, a beacon of might in a sea corruption. About him blood flowed endlessly as the waves of flesh rippled with his sword strokes. Black fur was all that he could sea for miles before him save for the rare glints of silver when his blades pulled from another tainted wolf. His flesh tore and healed, his limbs broke and fell back into place, but all before him fell to him. For hours he slew them, as wave after wave they came to their death. Their hideous green fire came over him, and he walked without wincing, unshakeable. A hero. A monster against these monsters. He let roar a vicious howl, it's very might tearing those around him to nothing, and for a moment's peace, all was dead. But more came and more died.
Then they stopped coming forward, stopped trying to claw their way back without their legs. The battle had parted around him, and another wolf stepped forward, a hairless wolf. It's body was covered in blue glyphs telling the story of his life, all the atrocities he had committed in the name of Gaia. It's skin was pure white save for around his lips and fingers where his silver claws and teeth had charred them black. But worst were it's eyes. As they came at each other, they both fought with the same measure of cruelty and hate. They both were the righteous and wicked bearing and knowing only death. He fought with all of his string against that ronin, but it seemed no strength enough to stop it. Nothing would tear it down. Finally he fell, having slain hundreds of corrupted wolves, brought down by the might of this one. He was powerless, then limbless then lifeless, looking up the whole time into the hateful, righteous eyes, his own eyes.

Darien woke in Crinos roaring at the top of his lungs. There was no telling how long he'd been doing that. He fell to his knees shaking, shifting back to homid, whispering his prayers to Gaia.
"Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me..."

Hearing the roars, what might as well have been a rocket came plummeting towards Darien, its speed causing bits of fire to spark from its wings. With a mighty backflap and a loud "CRACK!", it slowed and finally landed on the man's shoulder, quickly shifting to homid and jumping to the ground.

"Darien! Darien, what happened? What's wrong?!" she says frantically, resting a hand on his shoulder. Rhia brushed a piece of hair out of her face, and with a worried look, examined Darien for any injuries.

Darien stood, rearing in his poise. *etiquette* Looking down at his hands, they were covered in blood. He'd been clawing at himself in crinos. Shuddering, he held Rhia at arm's length. "I'm fine. It was just a dream." He sighed, his shame and rage were still rippling across his face.

Rhia frowns, the worry on her face only increasing. She pulls her hand into her sleeve, and uses it to clean off his face slightly. "That must have been some dream...you're a mess." she says, looking down at her sleeve, and making a face. She shrugged off the hoodie and started using it to get the rest of the blood off of him.

Darien shrugged her back. "I'm fine. Calm down." Darien sighed. "I saw you fly in. Was that the sound barrier you broke?" He grinned, shaking away the dream.

Rhia gave a smile. "Yea...yea I did." she said, giving a weak chuckle. She looked down at her now bloodstained hoodie and shrugged, tying it back around her waist. "I've been getting faster..."

"That's good. I'm sure that has some great uses in combat." Darien frowned, and sat back down. "A soundbarrier breaking flaming pigskin. This sept has the strangest members."

Rhia makes a face. "I'm not Flaming Pigskin anymore, remember?" she says sternly, though there is a smile on her face now. "I'm Phoenixfire! It's only fitting that I go so fast that I create sparks!"

"Yeah, I meant to congratulate you on that." Darien was definitely starting to feel better. "How are the crows doing?"

Rhia stuck her tongue out at Darien. "We're not crows, you dog." she says, giggling. "And we're doing fine. We had a Parliament a few weeks ago."

"Did you just call me a pansy?" Darien growls with a grin, picking up Rhia and throwing her over his shoulder.

Rhia squeals as she is picked up, giggling madly. "Yes Darien! You're a big, scaredy kitty cat!"

"Ah! A pansy and a Bastet!" Darien roared laughing, tossing a good twenty feet into the air.

Rhia spread her arms out, smiling big as the air flew around her.

In a blaze of feathers (spending a Rage), she shifted to Corvid and let the air catch under her wings, spiraling down to land gracefully on Darien's shoulder.

Rhia caws loudly, and then reaches up with a taloned foot to scratch at the necklace around her neck (spending a Gnosis).

"It's not cheating, it's using my resources." she points out in English after a moment, shifting from one foot to the other to get a better grip.

"Mmhm." Darien said, stealthily snatching her up gently in one instantly Crinos hand. "So would this be using all of my resources?" With that Darien teleported them thirty miles up, nearly outside of the livable atmosphere and let her go, spreading his arms wide and enjoying the fall.

Rhia flapped for a moment, trying to get her bearings once Darien let her go, cawing madly. Then, she folded her wings back and dived, trying to catch up to the free-falling Darien.

For nearly a minute he fell, before shifting to crinos just before hitting the ground with a loud BOOM, spreading dust everywhere. After a few moments, he stood from his new crater, popping his knees and back into place again. "Whew! I haven't done that in a while."

Rhia spread her wings, fire flowing from the feathers as she swooped past Darien, a blaze of fire darting between the sparse trees in the area. She flew out of sight, letting her momentum take her.

A few minutes later she came running back up in Homid, a huge smile on her face. "That was /awesome/!" she exclaimed, running back over to her pile on undedicated clothing and pulling them back on. "Holy crap! I'd never thought to do that before!"

"Ah, fun until the ground. I really need to learn that gift that let's you fly." Darien exclaimed popping his shoulder back into place. "I think we have a new pool."
