Chapitre 199: Dark Sun Extinguished

The trio of Reima, Solaire and Priscilla make their preparations to confront Gwyndolin, each of them holding their own resentment towards him. Reima for his attack on the Chaos Covenant and the sisters, Solaire and Priscilla for the betrayal that led to his banishment and her imprisonment. While some may suggest that forgiveness is the only way if they had said this to the determined trio they'd likely be brutally beaten for even speaking such a thing. While some differences are reconcilable, the atrocities committed and encouraged by Gwyndolin, Gwynevere and Gwyn himself are too much to grant them atonement.

Reima draws his Black Knight Sword enchanted with Occult due to it's effectiveness against gods, while not wildly useful in Dark Souls due to Gwyndolin being the last remaining god that the enchantment would work against, of course Gwyn still lives but with his soul split and ego destroyed by the centuries of constant burning torture the weapon would probably not have any effect anymore. The Black blade is wreathed in an ominous purple mist that causes Priscilla and Solaire to recoil slightly at it's presence, despite Solaire's divinity being taken he seems to still be able to sense the dangerous aura around the blade. Priscilla even more so due to her half-god heritage... He distributes Green Blossoms to everyone and asks, "You guys ready?", he recieves a nod from his two companions as they step through the mist of the Fog-Gate.

After walking inside the trio spot a familiar man prostrate on a lavish looking carpet praying towards a figure quite the distance away in the long hallway, even despite the apparent darkness outside light rays shine through the windows illuminating the hall in a gentle orange glow. The figure on the ground seems to notice their presence and turns around, revealing himself to be Laurentius, the man responsible for the betrayal that led to the Dark Moon invading the Chaos Covenant.

Reima's lips spread into a vicious grin, "So you're here? Good. I was scared that I'd accidentally killed you while we were butchering your friends."

Laurentius scowls at him, "It sickens me to look upon you, to think the man I'd share my flame, my soul with would attack and kill lady Gwynevere. His holiness even told me that you'd killed the Lady FireKeeper."

Reima "You betrayed the sisters, your mentor Eingyi and the rest of the Chaos Servants. It's fortunate you're undead so I don't have to be gentle when dealing with you." his grin spreading to an unnatural degree causing Laurentius to shudder.

Over with Solaire and Priscilla they had ignored the traitorous former Chaos Servant and instead approached the figure in the distance, Gwyndolin. His body is lithe and feminine and he wears a white dress with silver ornaments despite being male. He wears a golden crown in the shape of the sun and has many snakes coming out from the bottom of the dress, raising him off the ground and increasing his previously 5.11ft to around 7ft.

Gwyndolin is turned around by the vipers that seem to be apart of his body and he finally takes notice of his visitors. "Oh? Quite a surprise it seems, someone has delivered an Abomination and a pathetic Former God to me as tribute. I'll have to find the person responsible to reward them."

Solaire grits his teeth in anger at the obvious but effective taunt, "There is no where left to run little brother, your schemes and machinations only work if there are people of power to play. Sister has runaway to some vile begotten lands and Father has kept the First Flame burning with his own soul."

A smug smile overtakes the visible part of Gwyndolin's face, "Ah but for you see I require help not, I am still a god, and you are what's left of one... Even with the abominations assistance you will not be able to harm me."

Priscilla speaks up from her indignant silence, "You will pay with your life for your sins uncle, that I can assure you." she says as she prepares her scythe for combat.

Solaire nods and follows her lead, "Indeed, it seems the time for talk has ended." he readies his blade while preparing to block any spells shot at Priscilla.

Gwyndolin gestures backwards with his hand, making the hallway increase in length as it stretches off into the distance, neither Solaire or Priscilla are able to see the end of it. "Then let the games begin." he says as he vanishes and reappears further along the hallway, Priscilla takes a step and vanishes before her other foot reaches the floor.

Solaire raises his shield as Gwyndolin starts launching large Soul Spears at him, he easily blocks them but a small amount seems to bypass his shield, dealing small amounts of damage regardless. Luckily the damage is quickly healed as Sanctus's enchantment springs to life and starts regenerating any damage to his body and soul. He sprints towards Gwyndolin as the Dark Sun raises his golden staff and unleashes a torrent of arrows that random appear above Solaire before shooting at him, he rolls to avoid most and blocking the rest with his shield, he looks at Gwyndolin and sees some kind ripple in the air before his Brother quickly dodges to the side somehow avoiding Priscilla's scythe. The only thing it'd managed to hit was a wayward snake that'd been bisected for it's trouble.

Gwyndolin taunts the Crossbreed while channelling another spell "Insolent Abomination, you are far from matching a God!" he says as a white explosion launches her away, she collides with the wall heavily. Solaire's about to sprint to her aid but tries to distract Gwyndolin instead as she shakily gets to her feet and vanishes again.

Solaire "Does it anger you that I was Fathers favourite? Of course that was the only outcome! Who would love someone like you brother!" he spits, drawing the furious gaze of Gwyndolin who quickly retorts, "You know not of what you speaketh!"

Solaire gives a mock laugh, "Ha! Tell that to our ever so illustrious Father, oh wait! That's impossible!" He has to cut his taunts short as a Soul Spear larger than before zips by his head, he dodges and blocks a couple more and finally reaches the pale boy. He cuts down a serpent attempting to bite him as he slashes a long gash into Gwyndolin's abdomen, it doesn't seem too deep but still bleeds profusely. In response the Dark Sun disappears and reappears further up the all again, unfortunately it seems that Priscilla had predicted this and brings down her scythe, wreathed in the writhing black energy she'd called "Life-Hunt" due to it's ability to kill souls and heal the user at the same time.

It carves a long line down the back of Gwyndolin, the black energy causing the wound to quickly turn black along with the blood seeping out of it. Priscilla herself recovers from the previous impact due to the life-stealing effects of her unique magic that they had only recently discovered.

Gwyndolin gives a weak shout as the snakes under him try to carry him to safety, away from Priscilla. Only for a Lightning Spear to pierce the Dark Suns shoulder, leaving a large burnt wound as it carries on travelling even after penetrating the god.

Gwyndolin would try teleporting again but his unique teleportation magic takes time and concentration to use, he lacks both as he's never received a wound before and the pain is to unbearable for him to focus on anything else. A flash of Turquoise light signals Reima's arrival and he sweeps his blade horizontally, bisecting all the snakes and causing the pale boy to fall to the floor like a sack of potatoes. Reima kicks away his staff causing Gwyndolin to look up, "O-of course my pathetic servant didn't deal with you." he says as he loses the strength in his arms to hold himself up.

Reima "I'll leave this to you guys, I've still got a certain Pyromancer to tor-Cough... Punish." he says as he leaves the downed Gwyndolin to the mercy of an angry Solaire and Priscilla.
