"Fuck," Rafaela whispered beneath her breath as the statue was tossed over and to Inana. "Fuck again," she continued when Inana gave the orders. She had to act quickly!
Her powers came into play. Were they powers? Who knew. Perhaps she was just unbelievably lucky, like a black cat or a four leaf clover. Either way, when the two guards at her side went to impale her, she shifted left away from the descending spear and threw her forebracer'd arm up to try and take the brunt of the swinging sword.
She caught it, alright, and it bit through the leather and the metal and the second layer of metal, the snap of her mini crossbow on that hand going off and breaking. Pain went through her body, but her arm was still in tact, just cut into, and she was still alive.
She grabbed onto the monkeys forearm and drew herself up with acrobatic grace. A string was pulled from a ring she had on her finger, and she wrapped it around its neck before jumping off and landing hard, making its head roll from its body.
Then, the other monkey caught her and kicked her hard in the side. With a scream, Rafaela went tumbling into the murky black water where the stone tentacle monster awaited.

"I need a virgin's blood," Inana said as he moved towards her, unwrapping the golden statue until he could gaze upon it, and feel the warmth of its power and its allure. of course, these feelings were even stronger for Inana, who wore the eye that belonged in the statue, a mini version of the king that currently sat useless on his throne.
He took his gaze away from the statue to look at Neferet. "And you know there aren't many of those in Gaiaton. You're annoying, Neferet. I've always thought so. And the way you shy away from being touched; I know you must be a virgin. I'll be killing two birds with one stone, as it were."
While the Gargantuan Guardian was battling with Krypt, and several monkey warriors were keeping Fenris busy, and Rafaela got knocked into the water, Inana collected two bowls and set them to either side of Neferet's svelte waist. He put the statue in one, and the other was clearly meant for the gem he still wore around his neck.

He moved silently as the substance beneath Refaela suddenly began to pressurize as one of the monkeys turned towards him, he was already upon the stone creature grabbing it by its sword-arm with both of his own and moving with actively enhanced speed and strength to twist the guardian around him in a "wrist" toss and fling it across at the guardians seeking to attack Rafaela as she was in her acrobatic evasion/decapitation of one of them.
If it hit her, well it seemed like she could use a good thump to the head after all this. Then again he had timed it in the middle of her evasion and she might avoid the hit by virtue of her acrobatics. Immediately after the throw the liquid substance erupted beneath her as she landed creating a shadowy smokescreen to obscure Rafaela and Fenris as he turned towards Inana and moved through the haze to go towards the merchant still wielding gauntlets and grieves as opposed to his swords and moving with preternaturally enhanced speed, expending some of his life-force in the process to buff the acceleration of his movements. He counted Krypt and Neferet but where was the Dame?

Kinzokan Krypt
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 129
Physical Description: Kinzokan Krypt is a seven foot tall beast of muscle, violent scars and a wild mane of dark hair. Almost legendary for his status as a veteran of many battlefields, Krypt is known for his exceptional skill and combat prowess and because of his dark, ashen-coloured skin he is referred to in mercenary circles as "Kinzokan the Black".
He originally hailed from a volcanic land devastated by fire, brimstone, magma and ash and as such, his people are known as the Ashkin. Due to spending their entire lives surrounded by scorching heat and with little water that isn't boiling or steamed, the Ashkin are nigh impervious to fire and its effects and their skin has thus thickened and hardened into an almost naturally armoured hide. Such is the toughness of an Ashkin that only the sharpest of weapons, or the strongest of their wielders, could cut deep and hard enough to draw blood or cause serious injury. Yet in the volcanic wastes, such a defense isn't only advantageous, but necessary - for each day would bring the Ashkin tribes into contact with the aggressive, giant, reptilian monsters who ruled the ashlands as ever-starving kings.

Krypt felt the force of the second guardian slam into him and take him to the ground, but he wouldn't let himself be held there in a tackle if it could be helped. Instead, on the ground, he would attempt to raise his knee to his chest to gather as much force as he could, then slammed his foot into whatever part of the guardian he could find and try to kick it away from him.
If successful, he would bring both knees up towards his chest and, in the same moment, lift his hips and roll over one shoulder and back up to his knees.

The battle was heroic and worthy of at least a ten minute cinematic scene of thrill and adventure. Fenris with his mist and his wiley efforts was able to overcome many of the stone warriors, and Rafaela with her nimbleness and resourcefulness got off a few cool moves. Krypt, with his strength and durability was easily able to take the guardians and the warriors on, and together they managed to stop the blood ritual before Inana could sacrifice the beautiful virgin prophetess.
It became quickly clear that none of the heroes would be able to keep down the Guardians or the Warriors to long, and that the jewel and its statue had to be placed back in the hand of the Giant King who was still sat upon his throne. Fenris was able to get the statue, Krypt was able to rip the stone away from Inana, and they tossed them both to Rafaela, who put it back together and back into the fist of the king. Immediately, all of the warriors and guardians stopped listening to Inana, who looked around in terror as he realized that his power was gone.
He tried to run, but by then, Akbar's men that had been following the trail of Krypt and the Guardians, had come in from the secret entrance and had arrested him. Neferet was loosened from her binds, and when the dust settled, Rafaela was gone.
Those who wanted to, returned to Gaiaton to seek justice on Inana and Opong, whom Inana quickly outted as being a part of the scheme to take back Gaiaton from the "foreigners."
(Sorry to have kept players waiting, and to have posted something so anti-climactic, but I thought it would be best to open it up for you all to move along!)

(It's fine. Don't worry about it. : ) -)
Fenris had not finished this unwounded. He had managed to suffer a few nicks and bruises a long his frame, and a nasty gash that had penetrated his armour along his rib, as well as a few burn marks. He sighed as he ran a hair through slightly singed hair. He looked around at the area, checking to see who was still around and was stll in good condition. He saw Rafaela was gone. He scoffed unsurprised by this, a small smirk on his features as he scratched his beard which was also a bit burnt as well. It seemed there was little to do now but wrap things up, and see things to their conclusion. He stood silent unless spoken too, in quiet contemplation.
