Rune sighed as he felt the ground start quaking.
"Yep. The dragon's awake."
Rune looked on, his eyes narrowing critically as the creature emerged from the mountain. The first thing of note - the dragon was quite large. Rune also noted Askar's armor, which seemed to encompass even the normal weak points a dragon would have, the belly.
"Interesting! A blue dragon, and it seems like a very old one at that, he will be tough," Rune said, drawing his sword - a seemingly normal arming sword. As Rune took it in hand, however, the blade began to shimmer with purple mana, and previously invisible etchings all along the blade now glowed intensely.
Rune's magical aura grew greatly in intensity as the weapon in his hand began to grow in length and morph in form. The blade elongated until it was about six feet long, then hilt of the sword melded into the blade as the tip of the blade swelled in size.
As the transformation continued, Rune switched to a two handed grip and the stone ground beneath his feet began cracking under his feet before shattering. Once the transformation was over, Rune was standing in a small crater of pulverized rock, and holding a huge two-handed maul. The handle was about as long as Rune was tall, and the head of the hammer was as large as an anvil, though it was probably much heavier than even an anvil.
"I will distract the beast for now, you two hit him with all you've got once you're ready."
Rune crouched low then, and then he launched himself forward, disappearing from Mordaheim and Barka's view in seemingly the blink of an eye, leaving behind only a slightly deeper crater and causing a small quaking of the ground. Rune proceeded towards the dragon at a high speed, landing in front of him with another loud crash as he smashed rock beneath him upon landing.
"Hey you big stupid dragon! It is I Rune Naimon the Fourth that has come to slay you!" he yelled, raising his maul above his head as the weapon shimmered once again with magical rune etchings upon it. He slammed the maul down onto the mountain side, causing the ground to quake like a leaf in the wind as Rune put all of his force and the weight of the maul behind the strike. Fissures formed in the ground and shredded through the earth towards the huge dragon now, destablizing momentarily before a huge fissure opened up more, reaching Askar quickly. The fissures were not large enough to swallow the dragon whole, but it seemed Rune had some sort of control over the forming fissures as they sought to swallow the great dragon's legs to throw him off balance momentarily, and hinder his movements.
The fissure kept spreading however, further up the mountain-side.
