Dark Eternal
First Post
Ahlydhian watches with near disbelief the ease with which his opponent bests the Chimaera. Not for the first time, he curses the weakness that has overcome him since he was parted from the Dreamreaver; and not for the first time, he curses the dark artifact itself for having been taken from him.
Taking advantage of the Viper's attack on the Iron Chimaera, he dashes forward and leaps onto a large crate, then vaults backwards off of it to come flying downwards toward his opponent with a precisely timed double kick.

With a reverse flip, the Dark Eternal strikes a sharp blow towards the Viper's face, feinting as he simultaneously dismisses the Iron Chimaera. Under the cover of the two distractions, he abrubtly flips down and forward, bringing a powerful overhead blow down upon his opponent.

Blood spurts from the Viper's nose as she reels back from her opponent's repeated assault. Bobbing and weaving, she lets cry an inarticulate shout to distract Ahlydhian as she flips a poisoned dagger out of her sleeve and essays a quick, underhanded cut.

It takes a moment for Ahlydhian to recognize the burning sensation spreading through his arm -- poison! Not good, he thinks.
Drawing back from the Viper, he conjures a quick glamour to seal his arm above the elbow, slowing the poison's rush towards his heart. Even with this, I have at best minutes. I have to finish this quickly.
Dropping and tumbling away to his left, Ahlydhian throws his guitar towards his opponent to buy himself distance. Coming back to his feet, he takes quick stock of his position. Guitar gone, Chimaera gone, right arm useless. Grimly, he sets himself.
"So, the Viper reveals her fangs. Well done - now let's step things up a level, shall we?"
Reaching out with his mind and his will as he speaks, he harnesses the ambient energies in the room, and binds them. In the span of a moment, the environment changes. The light fades, casting all into shadow, as the room begins to spin slowly clockwise, and tilt towards an angle. Vague shapes begin to appear, drifting about and emitting horrifying moans.
In the now-shrouded room, Ahlydhian's fey blood gives him an edge, as he sifts effortlessly between reality and illusion. Though the strain of maintaining the magic without his guitar for focus limits him, he is sure the trade off is in his favor.
The lightning demolishes the ocean; redirects the touch of the horn!

Taking advantage of the entirely too brief moment while the glamour has Viper off guard, Ahlydhian launches himself full force across the room. With a desperate leap, he kicks out twice at her as he passes, landing hard on his wounded arm. The surge of pain that insues threatens to wash him into unconciousness.
