End of life.

[Xleena]

   Sicklo had seen enough. Eyes glowing silver again, her arms expanded, placing a strong grip on both of them, seperating them (admittedly with slight difficulty due to Rigors fury) and placed Mask down gently.
   She drew closer to Rigor now placing both hands on her face. Rigor's dark magic was burning her, but she had to stop this somehow. Closing her arms and trying to keep as calm as she could, she tried to go into Rigor's mind as her snow white flesh was being mercilessly clawed at.



Rigor....allow me to come into your mind.....!

[Armalite_]

Spike's feet were planted to the ground. He didn't know what to do when the spirit appeared. He began to think but then panicked, wondering if the spirit could read his thoughts. He looked over at the white wolf with the metal legs, catching him looking back for a split second. His eyes wandered between each of the individuals he was surrounded by. Not knowing exactly what to do, he just stared into space, zoning out, completely mixed in with what he should do. He figured he shouldn't try to be a hero, everyone always knew how that ended up. He'd seen enough movies in his short life with his ex to predict just how any fictional situation would end up. He watched on as the group stared with him. "Don't do anything stupid, Spike." he thought to himself.

[Asia Kali Yusufzai]

The black, feathered dogs could sense the pain in Asia's chest. They stared at him.
Silent.
They stared at him. One crawled closer.
"stay away doggy, I'm not hurt," said Asia, but he winced and the dog crawled closer on his taloned feet. They tore up the tarmac road. It sniffed the air, directing itself to Asia's chest, and with one swift movement, the pain was plucked out. It was a dog tail; a real dog tail. No feathers, but fur. Not black, but brown. Asia could see now, these beasts; they were different. They were not dogs. They looked the same, but he could see the darkness the flowed within them. They were birds and he was in trouble. The bird ate the dog tail and he was in trouble, he needed to protect himself.

The caccoon of dirt undeground began to fill with feathers, and a shadow was cast over Asia's mind.

[Xleena]

   Xleena stood and looked up at Jensuno asking; 'why is there a significance between me and Jaida, we just seem so different.'
   Jensuno looked down at Xleena with a slight tenseness in his tone 'You've been thinking about that since I left??' Xleena nodded. 'I hate surprises, something similar made me dead!' Her voice had a slight bitter tone in it, hurting from before.
   The spirit smirked and claimed 'Fine... if you must know...
                                                              you and Jaida are soulmates!!!'

   '...! Errrmm... well I'm not ga--' Stammered Xleena. 'Wahahahahahahahahahhahaha!!!' The same sinister laugh as before greeted Xleena's assumption. 'Not in the living's sense of course!'
   His eyes flickered in genuine amusement. 'It means that you will always be linked in the afterlife-- you will always know each others presence... even if you're worlds apart! In the end you will be together until the end of time, whether you like it or not! So perhaps you should get to like each other a lot!'
He smiled broadly, his teeth glimmering in his green glow.

Looking down at the others he asked 'Don't be afraid now my subjects-- any more questions?'

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt nodded, he had a question that had been eating at him all the time...

"the civilian i was trying to drag out of the building, did she... i mean... did i save her in time? before i died..."

His ears had drooped back embarssedly out of shame as he asked the question... before asking a second question...

"umm, also... the whole, snap my fingers and lotsa fire thing... uh, why? cos i fancy kinda knowing why, and whether i can control it so i dont set a friend on fire ya know..."

he demonstrated the fire ability in case the ominous spirit did not know what he meant. With a snap of his fingers a sheet of flame encircled his paw, without burning it, where it writhed like a living creature, before wooshing out when he clicked his fingers again... he was getting better at it...

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

   he answered Jaida with 'yes... but i've decided against this now, I just love my residents too much to never see them... its about time my presence is known-- I am the ruler of this realm! And what may you be confused about my dear?' He replied in a warm tone, like a father with his children.

Jaida continued to look at the Spirit as he spoke and when he explained about her and Xleena being 'soulmates'. "Confused about my death..." She answered. She set the rock in the grass and rolled it over to the side with dried blood on it then rolled it back over. She kept her eyes on the Spirit but completely spaced out. Her eyes saw the Spirit but her mind was playing the minutes before her death over it like the Spirit was just a background image that was kind of transparent-like. There was a feeling like it was starting to come back to her by just saying that she was confused about it to the Spirit and looking at it. She waited.

[Asia Kali Yusufzai]

Earth swirled around him, drawn to him. The dirt, the heart of the land, drawn to him, assaulting him. It dug into his feathers. It wanted to meet him, and himself.

Vibrant reds and yellows pierced through the surface, joining the soft grass. Deepest blue swirled at the base of these extensions. They would shimmer, almost irridescent, yet undeniably solid, yet thin, slicing the air with their excited violence. It clashed. A head emerged, heavy with black clouds, swarming his face, hidden beneath the beak and feathers.

He scanned his large mammalian deep brown eyes across the surroundings, and whimpered, in whispered shrieks.

[Gabag]

"So.... 'Divinity'.... what is my purpose here?" Katar asked cautiously so as to not provoke the beasts anger

[Goblin Cat 😸]

Rigor had been entranced with the image of a gray dragoness.. Not covered in odd markings like her.. She was familiar despite their differences, and she asked, "Who are you?" before going limp under her. She was confused.. Her thoughts jumbled, savagely fueled for self destruction without a reason why. She grit her teeth, when suddenly a cool presence came over her. She felt weak, and crumpled to the floor, her powers still flaring, still eating away at anything to the touch.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Mask saw Rigor's illusion form around himself, and saw Rigor pinning down a figure even though he just saw her being carried by the Guardian a few moments ago. He stepped down to Rigor and tried to speak to her, hoping she could hear him. "I'm you, or used to be..." the illusion said before it noticed Mask and grabbed his ankle. A periodic flash blinded them both and Mask was now lying where the illusion was. "Um, can you please get off, that fire is rather close..."

[Vosur Aekira]

Vosur calmed his stance, using his thumb to pull the hilt back into the sheath fully as he heard the questions and answers from and for those around himself. He pondered on whether he should ask or whether he should go out on his own to find out. He paused a moment to look the Guardian in the eyes (or what he thought were its eyes), his own no longer fading in and out from the blue-to-red as he maintained his calm composure. His ice-blue eyes stayed in position for a few moments as questions wandered through his head: "Are they here?" If not, where are they? Ruby, 'Icey', Akodo, Daisuke... where could they be?"

[JellyMuffins]

Jay got bolder after his first attempts, now poking the arms to observe their reactions. He began wondering about what he would ask but the questions were flying through his mind so quickly he didn't even have time to ask them before he thought of an even better question. This was a dream come true, a universal entity willing to answer any question. Jay had to contemplete this seriously before asking anything, though he thought that it would be a good idea to ask a similar question to Kitt, why could he shape-shift?
He thought it might have to do with him being turned into putty when he smashed into the ground and, for some reason, that thought made him giggle.

[Xleena]

A lot of questions! His thoughts announced, This is amazing! I am finally useful!
   First, he began to answer Jaida, his eyes glowing brightly to take her from her thoughts. 'Perhaps for you it is not wise to ponder things that are in the past and cannot be helped. It will only make your eternity here darker.' Maybe that was a little too serious of an answer! he pondered in his mind. In kindness, his powers turned the bloodied rock into a photo book of the good times in Jaida's life. 'Perhaps if you were to ponder the past at all, it should only be on the good times, yes?'

   His attention then turned to Kitt. A magical source of energy emitted from his hands, bringing a rather large book that had 'residents of the realms' on the front. (He was rather pleased he was allowing the others to know the presence of the other realms.) Reading Kitt's mind for a moment he recognised the face of the woman-- seeing her name in her eyes. He put the search into the book by whispering her name, a few matches came up-- but none of them had the same face. 'Yes, son, you did indeed save her... feel proud of your passage here.' He looked at Kitt a moment and asked himself rather than anyone else 'Why is he only in Folen then...?' Snapping out of this thought he continued 'Sometimes, but very rarely, a spirit can gain an ability or spell that was linked to their death. This could usually because the element-- such as fire in your case-- was linked to your job as a fireman who was killed in a fire.' He also smirked and replied 'It won't be long until you've mastered it-- I can see by your progress, spells or abilities learned at death or ones that you had partially learned are learned a lot faster due to the increased magic essence in the ''air''.'

   Satisfied with his answer he finally decided to reply to Vosur's thoughts. Glancing down at his tome, he found the area of them all. They are all in Folen...except your son, he is in Onea... He was still an innocent, and didn't ever do a thing wrong-- he is being looked after well. He answered directly into Vosur's mind But they are all in different parts of Folen, the one you wish to see the most you will find, that is the cruel tyranny of love. He finished, feeling slight sympathy to Vosur, who clearly wished to see them all....

   Jensuno waited, he knew there was much more to be said.


   Feren smirked, his luck was finally turning! Turning his face to a more serious and intimidating look, he explained 'KATAR, YOU ARE TO SPREAD SUFFERING TO OTHER DIMENSIONS...JUST AS THE DARK LORDS HAD PROPHESIED!' (He elaborated, trying to appeal to the subject's personality) 'I AM TO OPEN A PORTAL TO AN INNOCENT REALM, WHERE YOU SHALT WREAK HAVOC AND DESPAIR UPON ANY PRESENT. IT IS TO GOVERN THIS REALM INTO AN ALMIGHTY DARKNESS, SPREADING THE RULE OF EVIL WHERE YOU WILL BECOME KING!' He lied. 'COME KATAR, YOUR TIME HAS COME!' Looking at the other subject he continued 'YOU MAY TAKE THIS ONE TO GUARD YOU AND BE AT YOUR AIDE, THAT IS HIS CHOSEN PATH.'
   And with that he opened a portal up with an almighty roar, trying to emphasise his power. The black hole snatched the surrounding light in a hostile way, beckoning the two to draw near.

[Gabag]

Looking at the portal, then back to the divinity, Katar bowed and spoke 'Yes my lord.. It shall be done in the Name of Chaos!"
Walking towards the portal, and gesturing for Filth to follow, he walked in, spinning in the vortex where time itself was bent and misshaped Katar spun, till eventually he landed in a grassy meadow in Folen. After standing up and looking around he mutters to himself.

"What...... What is this place?"

[Asia Kali Yusufzai]

The aura around Asia's head caused the earth to crumble around it, revealing it out of the ground. He pulled his arm out and gripped the earth, pulling himself onto the grass. His colours radiated into the air, rough and excitable, they sparked with violent protectiveness. He could see a portal grow from the air, as though the universe had been spread open, and out came a stranger.

Asia's eyes could be seen, but it was as though they did not exist. Visible yet intangible, the white glow stared at the stranger.

"Stay away from me," he said, with ruffled feathers, spreading off his arms. "Stay away."
