[Special Dungeon]Norsing Around.


Recommended Posts

The battle had been hard fought. Oscar’s energy bar had never dropped this low in a boss encounter before. He had considered whether or not to use Meditation for the first time since he got the skill. But, looking at the pummeling that the goddess was taking, Oscar wondered whether it would even be necessary. Certainly he would be provided room and time to recoup his energy before moving on to the next challenge that the dungeon had in store for him. If not, well it wasn’t as if a Meditation would serve him very well at all anyway. What was another 20 Energy when he was swinging for 16 a round? Aincrad was hell and Cardinal was a bitch, but they never skimped on providing room to rest. Oscar had no reason to think now would be any different. Of course, there was always room for him to be surprised. He was so caught up in that stream of consciousness that he forgot to swing.

Having rounded his way back around behind their foe, the Whisper moved into alignment and leaped to catch her off guard.  Samael's Pride swung high overhead, ready to claim its prize once again for good measure.  The black blade bit deep into the boss' rotten flesh, cleaving through her clavicle and fully six inches into her chest.  The mob's head turned awkwardly around, beyond the point to which any living humanoid should be able.

"OH! YOU CREEPY FUCKING BITCH!  FALL OVER, ALREADY!!!"

Bracing a leg against her back, Freyd heaved with all his might, trying to get his sword out of her back or even just to drive the barely perceptible sliver of health left on her bar down to zero.  Glowing brilliantly white with holy light in reaction to Hel's fel nature, the sword seared away more of her terrible form with every wrench and shove.

"Would someone please pinch her, or something, and end this?!"

A tear of reality at Freyd's beck and call, before that vorpal blade tears through the boss's chest. She shatters like glass, pieces of her falling in twain as her legs would no longer support the upper half. An extended weapon finds its saya, as if to beckon to allow her to die. A few steps shows dry ice like fog emanating from the child. "Next." She remarks toward the group in a very placid and emotionless decree, she wanted more to test her strength against and more over to prove her use to her captains. As if she wasn't tangible at all, the girl flickers and begins to lose focus like as if she was a phantom. That bitter chill still parades about the space, adding a white film across. She'd watch and wait for that opportunity to strike at the hound that would surely come next, as her memory would allude to.

They had done it. Most of the party had left but Hel had been defeated. They found themselves transported to a shining glowing city and led deep underground by Odin himself. Cardinal had really pulled out all the stops on this one. And there it was, the opportunity Oscar had been waiting for. Odin specifically said the words “when you’re ready.” And Oscar wasn’t ready. He slapped his ass down on the stone floor in front of Fenrir and let out a heavy exhale. He wasn’t sure if he even wanted to fight a world-ending wolf at anything less than his best. Plus, Film Anime still needed to shovel a ton of food into their mouths. If Oscar wasn’t at his best with less than 100 percent energy, they were really far off without a full assortment of buffs to get them ready for this nonsense ordeal that they were about to embark upon.

The moment Hel procced her death scene, Freyd whipped out the snacks and immediately started scarfing.

“Crème Brulee for everybody!  Dig in, quick. Odin won’t leave us much time before the next cutscene.”  Stabbing the point of his sword into the mucky surface of Hel’s summer beach house, Freyd summoned an entire picnic basket for off the dessert. Stuffing assorted and largely incompatible flavours into his gob, the tastes deemed to be irrelevant to the task at hand. 

It had never really occurred to him to use food as a form of war paint, but it seemed strangely apt to the situation. Marshmallow and gravy smears surely inspired fear, right?  It didn't matter.  He'd done this run three times already.  This run literally WAS gravy for him.  Licking his fingers as he finished, he shot Raidou and Oscar a quick thumbs up.  Lessa and the others received an equivalent nod, the blond having to react quickly to catch the damage potion he tossed her.

"Let's do this."

Your party depends on you.

"You're a piece of shit," she muttered to herself, the sound lost to the slapping of her boots on the hard floor. The moment she reappeared in the nearest town, she began running for the dungeon she had just evacuated. "You abandoned them because you were scared, and you're a total piece of shit." Muttering the words like her new mantra, Lessa careened down the corridors, hauled ass down the hallways, and exploded back onto the scene as the reinforcements slaughtered Hel. 

"Oh," she managed dumbly over her gasping breath. "There are more of you."

She bent at the waist, recovering some of her stamina before turning to Oscar and Raidou. "I'm really sorry I ditched, guys. It was stupid, and I shouldn't have done it." Putting voice to her thoughts, she added, "I'm a piece of shit. Please, please let me make it up to you?"

Taking a moment of reprieve between the chaos as the hound was howling on the horizon. A few bites of something that lay in her inventory, preparing for the fight to come. A slide of her menu open sees a large increase of all of her stats, highlighting in blue as each buff began to take. A shadow in the dark watching the field as the other players began to prep as well. Looking on toward the direction where the screeching shows flame on the horizon, as if Hades was on the approach. The very fires of hell were moving up to meet the party, and this beast would die all the same. Burning away the sky and filling the place with heat. A glare and a semblance of aggression. Setsuna wasn't too keen on the heat that this thing would bring to the table, reminiscent of floor 9 that she hated.

Shuffling his inventory open, he finds a bite to eat inside as his stomach rumbles. "Hmm, what you think this asshole's got? Hel seemed a bit tougher, so I bet he is to." Taking a heavy bite of the roll and beginning to chew in aggressive fashion, He turns an eye toward the fire and brimstone, causing an orange glow out there. "Well, bring it fucker. We can just beat his shit in, no different from before." Another heavy bite, noticing Lessa now appearing. Chick looked like she could be Freya's mom. "Hi, just in time for the ass whoopin'." He points with a gesture toward the glowing distance, and with a cocky grin he slips his spear over his shoulder. Sucking down the last bit of his food, that honeyed roll vanishing rather quickly into his lips like a chipmunk with a nut. He was ready to get this party started.

It was almost time. The party was more or less buffed to the gills and staring down this hongri boi like they were the hongri bois. Oscar, for his part, needed just a bit longer to recuperate his energy. It was a little disorienting to be so full of adrenaline and hyped up on hype only to suddenly be smacked down to Earth by the wrecking ball of a rest period. But that was neither here nor there. What mattered most was the hulking lupine behemoth of murderous intent who was dead-set on eating their hands and probably the rest of them as well. In terms of local threats, that was one hell of a chonker. Nevertheless, Oscar was fairly confident that between the six of them, they had this fight well in hand. Or they would die horribly in a blaze of glory. A less appealing option but there was no in-between here

A soft exhalation and a removal of his lenses, Raidou sheathes his sword as the rest of the group began to shore up. Looking to where Fenrir was howling, the beast wasn't far off. Polishing his glasses on his robe before replacing them on his face, looking to Lessa and Oscar and the guild members that came up seeming out of nowhere. "Of course, there was never a doubt in my mind." He spoke to Lessa, remembering the woman and her moxie from their fight in the flames that was almost in tune with this coming battle. He was sure that her determination wouldn't allow her to quit, worry aside. "Ready yourselves, Fenrir is coming and isn't easy." An adjust of those glasses sends a white set of spheres rushing across the floor, as more of that red fog begins to mix with Setsuna's. His hatred burned bright like the flare in his eyes.

Great googly moogly things really went to shit. The moment Odin cut the ribbon, the beast set about unleashing itself upon the whole of Valhalla. Warriors took to the streets to battle the beast, only to be immediately gobbled up by its iron jaws. It was absolute chaos. And here Ford Anderson was standing smack dab in the middle of it. Oscar looked at the devastation - such that was not his intention - and shrugged his shoulders. There was nothing left to be done other than to put the doggo down. Fam Angus and the comeback kid was the only thing standing in between the rest of the world and Fenrir. They would really need to bright the heat (minus South Beach), if they wanted to stop literal armageddon. Oscar looked to his right, then to his left, then rushed forward, axe at the ready. It was time to deck this big boi in the shnozz. And Oscar decked him so hard he started burnin'.

Energy coursed through her veins, the eagerness to prove herself completely renewing Lessa. The first two bosses had seemed to drag. Perhaps it was the emotional toll the crying soldier had taken on her, or just the typical wearing down of a long dungeon. Whatever the case, she had found herself struggling to keep the pace, even with the threat of failure that she eventually succumbed to.

That failure was what had her fighting harder now. She had given in, but run back to join the fray, and didn't that count for something? Now she had to prove herself to them, to make sure that she earned the rewards that were coming to her. There was nothing else she could do. She owed it to Oscar, her close friend and guildmate. To Raidou, the man she had worked closely with to put out the raging fires. To Freyd, who had just magically appeared. And to all those other people. Whoever they were.

"Once more unto the pup, dear friends."  Freyd chuckled as apocalypse threatened to unfold before them.  He should have been terrified.  The scene was well-crafted and gloriously graphically detailed.  You could see the molten lava-like saliva pooling and drooling from the giant beast's maw.  It was scarier the first three times.  By now, he'd reached a level of apathy about the whole thing, but not so much that he couldn't still appreciate the scene.  

Weave across the ruined streets and broken cobblestones, Freyd knew to watch his footing.  He'd wiped out a few times here before, and learned his lesson.  It wouldn't do for the cavalry to stumble and break a leg in its moment of glory, though it would totally fit his pattern.  A voice groaned in the back of his head, anticipating the worst, but today seemed like it would defy all odds and not cause him to fall face-first onto the stone.

At blinding speeds, Setsuna apparates and slides through where Fenrir stood, and what comes is nothing more than a shower of sparks. This version of Fenrir had significantly tougher hide, and as a result her blade doesn't penetrate at first. A sharp glare as her head pivots downward, it was clear she wasn't happy. Another pulse of that white fog as she begins to sprint back toward the beast. It turns and takes a snap toward her, she dissipates. His bite finds no purchase, and as she appears off kilter where the attack was made, she had sustained no damage. "I will come back twice as hard." Setsuna offered almost as a warning. But it really wasn't. Instead, it was a promise, for the next swing he wouldn't be so lucky. With that word spoken, she begins to melt away, becoming one with the fog that she was so known for.

Lunging toward the heavens and lifting his weapon over his shoulder. A heavy wind takes beneath his clothes and makes his hair flare and flap about. A big green glow takes the whole of his polearm. In a rapid speed that he wasn't expecting in the slightest, he finds that weapon surcharge at a much faster pace. A massive explosion as the weapon falls with him in tow. Impaling the beast clean through sees a spray of that glowing orange blood spray Gaius, but he didn't care. What is left is a large grin, as Gaius wasn't the slightest bit concerned. He was reveling in the excitement, the possibility that he was going to take this fucking thing down with the force of his blows. Ripping it clean, and leaping off the huge hound and landing in the dust. "Not quite good enough." he spoke to the damage dealt, the damn thing was still standing.

From his pocket he crushes a small crystal that he had readied for this, finding it suitable after seeing these things hide being all too difficult for the others to pierce. A wave of purple comes from his feet like ripples on water, and the creature begins to slow down considerably. "That should do it." Raidou remarks as he draws the other blade from his back. With this many in the party, he could remain on the defensive and hold his ground against this creature and focus on holding its attention. The wave of red comes next as his eyes glow brightly, hatred. Before it mixes in a bluish light, concentration. A few steps toward the boss sees its eyes begin to gloss over. It rushes toward the only thing it could see, finding teeth only in steel placed between him and the red wanderer. Nothing more than sparks between them, no damage exchanged.

For all of its bluster and for all of his destructive ability, Fenrir really wasn't all that durable. In just two rounds of combat, the party had almost brought the beast down to half of its health. Oscar's turn came up next and hoo boy, was it a doozy. Coming in hot off the heels of Raidou's Focused Howl, Oscar vaulted into the air using the butt of his axe. In a typical display of acrobatic acumen, Oscar appropriated his axe upside top of Fenrir's cranium with a descending spinning cannon ball. Despite the devastation (that was not his intention) wrought upon the doggo's dome, Oscar landed lightly on his feet and spun his weapon in a little bit of a flourish. It wasn't altogether too impressive - and the boss was still kicking - but damn did it feel good to watch a boss get absolutely shredded. It was really nice to see.

Oddly enough, this actually felt good. 

Lessa had never been a big fan of combat, and had shied away from it for so many years. When she had been required to don her armor and wield her blade, she had felt obligated to hack and slash without feeling. What did it actually matter, in the long run? As long as she lived, of course. She was grinding, killing mobs for the experience and nothing else. It was a task, a chore even, and one that she dreaded.

But this? She thrilled as she slammed her enormous blade into the boss with a spark of crimson light. She gave a small war whoop as she shaved another tiny sliver off the beast's massive health bar. Of course, she did so under her breath. It wasn't worth letting the others know how much fun she was having. The might think that she was kind of weird.

Sensing the tide of battle turning in their favour, Freyd's eyes caught Raidou's for the briefest of moments.  It was enough to connect their thoughts and determine his next course of action.  Fenrir had a flaw, and was vulnerable in his phase rotations, if you knew how and when to take advantage of it.  Raidou knew it.  Freyd could see it by his motions and tactics.  He was priming Fenrir, getting him ready to take a massive beating.  

A solid hit would tip the scales too early.  Now was the time to prep for the came next, and Freyd had already picked out his staging area.  Unfortunately, fortune caught up to him.  Leaping and running along broken balconies and ledges, he'd hope for a high, hidden vantage from which to assault the boss, but it was not to be.  A section of stone creaked, then cracked and gave way as he stepped less deftly than he should.  What seemed like a clever idea fell apart as Freyd tumbled back to ground level dusted-covered and irked that his plan had failed.

From where she stood, the girl just starts to lose tangibility, as if you were seeing her through glass that was thawing out. A few seconds as she started to rush down the creature. In only that short sprint sees her disappear completely. She'd wait for a moment, wait for that opportunity to rush it down. The frost began to build on the sliver of steel, dry ice peeling off of it and bleeding into the ground and pulling a further amount of smog around her frame. She'd need it to remain out of view, her eyes narrow and take that ice like glow on her iris. The hunter was waiting, watching. For blood, for an artery to strike out against. To exploit as much lethality as she could, and take this blasted thing down a peg. The soft patter of her feet as she circled, looked as some of her energy begins to drain in that movement.
