From where Ana was crouched within the wardrobe, she couldn’t see much, but sounds assaulted her. Screams, sobs, the taunting voice of Xiluhr as she skipped around killing people mercilessly. Someone tugged and ratted the doors to the wardrobe and Ana shook her head, shouting for them to go away. She couldn’t do it, she was useless, everyone was dying, and she could do nothing!

Some heard the word fight being shouted from some unknown participant, and took it as an invitation, charging at Troy.

Troy gritted his teeth, accepting at this point the worshipers had no fear to play on. A crowd of barely-clothed knife carriers were barely a threat to him in full armor, but if some of them ended up being more well armed, things could get nasty. "God worshiping animals!" He shouted in anger, crouching some and aiming the shield neck high before unleashing the barrier again, aiming to break some necks and interrupt their charge to give him the initiative. Things were starting to warp and look unnatural, was this the work of them, their god, or something else?

Megan sighed "We could go to Kandor, but..."

"Megan, Ebony and I would be public enemy number one" was Orochi's response.

(I'm fine with jumping forward a couple hours)

(I already forgot the town name)

The Town of whateveritis was coated in a layer of blood. They were not known for their fighting prowess, rather their zealous fervor for the Infernals and how excited they were to die. Leapt at the chance to innact chaos and join Kaos in his realm. At the chime of the church bells, New Moon casting the sky in pure darkness, the city was empty save for three: A cleric, who stood in awe at the church doors as he beheld his empty and blood-soaked city, Ana who crouched, still hidden, in a building along the outskirts of town, and Troy.

Gilly woke slowly, blinking her eyes as she rubbed them. They stung, still swollen from crying. "What happened?" She mumbled.

Ivan said quietly "Gilly, I am so sorry."

Megan said "Kaos spirits prayed on your father, Ebony, and Orochi's mind. You have a strong will, those are not easy to resist" not revealing the actual reason she resisted.

Troy pointed his sword at the cleric. "The godslayer, tell me whatever information you have to point to where it might be or you're next!" He shouted, no longer anywhere resembling his right mind thanks to the drink provided earlier in the night.

"I ask!" Troy shouted, approaching more quickly now. "So tell me already!"

Gilly moved away from her father again, rigid with fear. “Don’t touch me.”

The cleric waved his hand, a shadowy shield rising into place between them. “As chaotic as giving you info on the godslayer is, you’ve done a lot of damage already.”

(Does this town leader know anything Dillon)

(That would be a no. There a VERY few GODS who know where Godslayer and the Sword of Sins are. Even fewer mortals)

Ivan said "Gilly, I didn't..." Megan gently placed her had on Ivan's shoulder and sat next to Gilly.

"Gilly," Megan said "Their gone now...the voices are gone. Your father is back to normal. Everything is fine...you are safe now." She then looked at Gilly with a warm smile "And I am so proud of you. You did really good today, even if it didn't feel like you did. Two tough as nails dragons trained to fight mercilessly, your father who probably has decades if not centuries of knowledge, they couldn't resist those spirits"

"And my excuse is that I have god blood in me. You don't have that luxery. You resisted them..." Megan said trying to cheer her up. "You're a hell of a girl, you know that?"

Ivan looked away, as did Orochi and Ebony. Ivan sighed "Gilly..." He sighed "Yes it's true, those voices made my thoughts more exaggerated. However, I love you. You mean more to me than anything. What you saw...was something I feared. My pride swelling up that I would feel everything I did was right, not caring about your feelings"

Ivan sat in between Megan and his daughter. "However, I'm not scared about that anymore" Ivan then looked at Gilly. "Because now...now I've lived my fear...and I never want to put you though that again. Never again..." He tried again to put a comforting hand on his daughter's shoulder "I love you, Gilly"
