Ignis laughed after hearing the screams, "Only a matter of time before another finds a trap, or better yet, finds their future murder." His imagination play with that thought before letting out a rumbling laugh. He summoned a small fireball in the middle of his hand, "What shall we do to pass the time while we wait for more to met their maker?"

Ingis glanced over to Tyler, "Well, Ty, what do you want to do? Want to get blood on your hands, or watch Lucy cause some chaos?" He was indifferent either way, despite his sadistic nature he wanted to make sure he wasn't going to be yelled at for starting the fire. He clenched his hand into a fist making the fireball implode and turn to ashes. Opening his hand again he watched the small flakes slipped in between his clawed fingers.

Ignis didn't hesitate and straight his back, grabbing both of the twin swords he made the fire in the blade went away. Before he left he stopped, "Let them know this, 'one of the demons is blood thirsty.' that should rally them up a bit." As he walked away he made banshie like scream, hoping to scare anyone that could have heard him. Having his twin swords resting on his shoulders he made his way down to the maze to have some fun.

Ignis pressed one of his swords against the wall dragging it as he walked, he seemed almost care free as he stepped over the traps. The sword running across the wall caused small sparks to fall to the floor. "I swear I'll make it quick." He let out a low pitched, beast like roar hoping to draw attention to himself. "I got bored waiting for you die so now I'm here to hurry things up!"

Ignis's eyes instantly locked on to the human, well now, look at we got here Lucy he walked towards Jinx and pointed one of his swords at her neck. "Does my prey have a death wish?" He spoke in a sarcastic tone. His eyes flashed red and the blade erupted into flames, he stepped forward until the fire nearly touched Jinx. "I was expecting a fight from you but just burning you should be enough fun for me."

Only half dead? Plus it's ok, I understand completely.

Ignis moved his blade away from Jinx, getting ready to swing the sword at full power. All good things come to an end... but it was fun while it lasted Grunting as he did so, he swung his flaming sword towards Jinx aiming for her neck again. Beheading her where she stood, and the flames lit what ever was left on fire. Having used more strength than what was necessary he got his sword stuck in the wall. "I forgot how that they were weaker then most things I killed."

OOC: Cloud was killed by a trap, Angelica was murdered by Jinx and Ignis (my demon) got bored of waiting and started hunting for the people. Ignis found Jinx and killed her then set her copse on fire.

Mark went silent for a moment and from the corner of his eye watched the smoke rise from Daniel's gun barrel. "Ok... I quess we call that crisis adverted." He said as calmly as he could, now he knew Daniel was willing to kill some one.

The raven (Exectioner's pet) hopped towards Charith, tilting its head to the side it was looking at her wings. As much as the black bird wanted to caw at her it forced itself not to. The raven was slightly scared of her, it never seen a person with wings like that.

Executioner noticed the strange knight and shouted at it, "Does the Postman have a name for you?" He gripped the saber with both of his hands and held the sword outward towards the knight. "Because I'm going to change it to deadman walking!" He then charged towards the knight with his sword pulled back ready to plunge it into his target.

Mark quickly drew his machete and pointed it at Darrin, the look of pure hatred in his eyes, "Is that all you care about?! Saving your own hide?" He gripped the machete hilt harder making the leather of his gloves stretch and flex. "I'm a murderer, but at least I have a heart! I'll live with this guilt for my whole life and I know it. You watched a friend die and you only care about yourself!"

Mark grabbed the back of Darrin's head, dragging Darrin to van he slammed Darrin's head into the van's hood. Mark refused to use all of his strength so nothing was broken, possible bruising around the nose though. Mark pulled Darrin's head up by his hood and hair, "Shut up before I slam you face through the windshield." (Too far?)

"Is that what Richard told you?" The old man smiled, "Sadly, yes that is true. I have not been my old self as of lately." Havel took a few steps and put his hand on a chair, slowly he sat himself done and looked at Asterra. "I have spoken to the priestess she said she couldn't do anything. Said it was out of her skill level, the poor girl."

The advisor walked over to be behind the elderly mage and spoke up. "She said he needed rest, that was three days ago. The priestess was not of any help to his condition." The advisor then put his hand on Havel's shoulder.

Havel brushed off the hand and moved his head slightly to the side to look at him, "Neither are you."

The king spoke with a cold voice, "What are you asking of him?" The guard grabbed onto his sword hilt with both hands but kept the flat part of the blade on his shoulder.

The advisor was dumbstruck by the actions of everyone. He stood speakless behind the mage, on the other hand the elderly man sat quietly. Havel raised his hand and shook his head, "Richard, please, not here." Looking Asterra in the eye Havel spoke, "In my youth, I have risked my life for men and women I never seen before in my life. I would say I would let myself be killed for others, it only depends on who I would be sacrificing myself for. If thousands live from my death I say I am willing to die for that honor."

Havel looked straight at her, "Of course." He cocked an eyebrow, "Why do you ask?" No one in the room understood the question, why would faith contribute to this situation. Taking his time to think, the king stepped away from her. The guard stopped holding the sword with both hands but kept himself ready for the king's word.

The advisor walked toward Richard he opened his mouth to talk but Richard raised his hand to stop him before he let out a single word.

Havel sighed then looked over at the king, Richard nodded and walked beside him, "Please Havel, accept this offer. I can not watch you wither away any longer." The king pleaded as he put his hands on his shoulder.

Sighing even louder Havel looked back at Asterra, "Richard... Fine, I'll take your cure. I sure the king can pay you for your service. Richard?"

The king turned to Asterra once more, "What ever the price, Havel is too important to this kingdom." Havel was almost like a father to the king, the old mage took care of the king when he was young.

Everything was silent for a long minute. The guard drop his weapon from shock, leaving the blade stuck in of the floor. The king froze in place but managed to only mouth the word 'what'.

Standing up Havel spoke clearly, "Absolutely not!"

Richard placed his hand on his court mage's shoulder, "Havel... I know her 'offer' sounds horrible but if you don't get helped you'll die and that bastardly demon will be freed anyway. I rather that than watch you suffer." The king hid his face with the shadow, he couldn't bring himself to look at anyone at the moment.

Havel sighed, "Damn it all." He sat down again but this time buried his face in his hands, "I will release the beast if, and only if, your 'cure' works."

King Richard walked pasted Asterra, stopping to speak to her he didn't turn to face her, "We can mount the horses and head for the tree. There Havel will free the demon from its chains." Havel nodded in agreement then took the canister and opened it, he prayed as he took a swig.

Meanwhile the three ruffians from before returned, this time wielding clubs. The biggest one of the group took a swing at the demon's stomach. Cringing from the impact the demon grunted, Ignis looked up at the proclaimed leader of the three and let out a loud rumbling roar, much like a dragon's. Since Ignis could not move the three continued to torture the demon. The clubs eventually started to harm Ignis, thick dark red blood started to seep through the gabs of his armor-like skin.

OOC: Question. Gonbor, is that one of the kingdoms believed to be a story? Or is it part of Anastasia's kingdom? I'm sure this was clarified before hand but I just want to make sure.

IC: Executioner was hit by one of the many arrows in the arm. Skidding across the ground until he came to a stop he broke the arrow head off. "You can't kill an undead so easily." He boasted as he decided it would be best to go back to Aaron, as he ran back he held his arm where to arrow he broke off entered, "Damn... it hurts."

The king left and started for the stables. The guard sheathed his sword and began following the king, he mounted a war horse while the king himself mounted a horse bread for speed. "If the demon attacks, don't be afraid to kill it."

The guard finally spoke, his voice gruff and hardened from battle, "Yes my lord."

Havel put the canister down on the alchemist table, "When will the cure take affect?" He said as he stood up.
