Sorianna pushes herself up, using the wall for support. Her body ached. She looks at Lorana, her eyes captured by the other woman's.

She turns to the paladin, "Yes I think so." She looks back at Lorana. "Father told me that you helped mother Freya form some of the onmiarchs. Do you know if I am the only one made purely from the genes of the omniarchs? Are there others like me in the other tribes?"

[Thugren]

The paladin removes his helmet revealing kriegs stern smirk.

Lira a stands and fetches sonething from he cell, a heavy red book with odd marks in it.

" there's a few others...... Most are dead. Failed genese that couldn't survive the evolution.. I think there's one other, but she's on the other side of the world."

Krieg racks the slide ina his rifle a am alarm blares.

" looks like they found the dead first shifters..."

He motions for you to follow.

" bars closing don't have to go but I'm not staying here."

[Lafayra Rue]

"Lead the way." She turns to Lorana and holds out her hand. "You see fine I know but would you like help?" Sorianna smiles at her.

[Thugren]

Ah takes your hand as you notice a long serpent and two foxes following behid her .

The hallway is dark, completely swallowed by light a krieg leads you he leads you to an elevator and growls.

" fick it locked down.... Cover me while I hack the override."

He crouches an begins tinkering with the machine as you see two guards run into view.

" I found them!"

One shouts, powering on his shock mace.

" there right here!"

[Lafayra Rue]

Sorianna drops Lorana's hand, pulling the blood to her hands and without hesitation sends spikes of blood at the men, aiming for their wrists and ankles.

One of the men scream and tumble face first into the ground as the other manages to leap past hi fallen comrade

He lunges at you but is taken out of the air by the serpent, that has now grown to massive size.

It catches the fool mod air and slams him to the ground instantly constricting with the sickening crunch of bone.

" in!" Krieg yelps as the door opens and gunfire tears through loranas serpent an takes the ground at your feet.

[Lafayra Rue]

Sorianna turns, grabbing Lorana's hand and pulling her into the elevator. She looks back at the men shuffling into the hallway after them. Pulling all the blood nearby to her she built it up into a wall and sent a tsunami down the corridor.

The wall buffets over the men an slams them into the far wall with sickening crunches...

Bit a figure walk out of the hallway, his armor I mismatched , from hi let hang four skulls two with pointed beaks.

Lorana begins to shake an an oppressive aura fills the air and a black shadow engulfs the hall.

" fuck!"

Krieg yelps as we woke the console.

" they re weaponized him!"

The figures silver eyes seem to glow an he's raised his hand.

The blood puddles like water and the bodies rise an look at you obscenely . Slowly try begin to lumber at you as a terrifying laughter fills the hall

[Lafayra Rue]

Absolute fear fills her mind, the aura forces her to her knees but she can't seem to take her eyes off of his.

The skulls catch her attention for just a moment. "Lexanna......Madeus...." Hatred begins to well up strong in her chest. Rapidly consuming her thoughts Sorianna struggles back to her feet.

"You fucking bastard!!!" She screeches. Her entire body shakes in fury. The excess blood starts to seep into one of the bodies now shambling towards them. "Die you piece of shit!" She clenched her fist tight exploding the body nearest her.

The blood billows over him in a consuming wave ... But something is wrong it parts as it slams into him as the ravenous blood consumes the dead surrounding him.


Madness fills the hallway as he draws near, visions of the end , of pain and suffering flash past your eyes until you feel a jolt and the door slams shut and rises.

Lorana is crying , kriegs eyes are closed but blood is leaking from his tear ducts and job hands are shaking

[Lafayra Rue]

Sorianna's legs give out and she hits the floor hard. She grips her head tightly, wanting the visions to stop. Her heartbeat drowns out all other sound and she can sense blood on the floor but she doesn't know where it's from.

She still sees the man standing in front of her, his gaze boring into her soul. "Lexanna...Madeus.....I'm so sorry..."

[Thugren]

The elevator jars to a halt an the lights flicker...

The door lets out a horrible screech as hands, familiar blood soaked hands begin to pry the door open.

Madness assaults your mind as the eyes instantly focus on you, kriegs mind spasms as the patriarch in his head is forced into submission an lorana begins to sob..


" it's so goo rose you again sorianna..."

Nightmare chuckles looking at you.


" it's time to finish what I started..."

[Lafayra Rue]

A sense of self preservation overrides the fear he causes her, and Sorianna scrambles to her feet. She pulls blood to her, forming her scythe. Her gaze falls to his belt, the skulls of her clutchmates starting at her with hollow orbs.

"Give me back my siblings!!" She brings her weapon down in a fast downslash.

The blade slices through his chest leaving a wicked gash and slashing the skulls from their chains, they fall to the ground spake in blood as nightmare recoils .

He opens hi mouth to speak and gags a a bladed thorn rips through his shoulder tanking him back.

A massive, heavily armored figure stands, a long black blades chain gripped in its hands.

Nightmare how's in hurt as the figure hooks him with another chain and he rips himself free and vanishes .


The madness leaves immediately , the heavily armored figure considers you for a long time as it winds it's chain.

" prisoner..... 433256 sorianna.... History unknown .... This unit knows.... How does this unit know...."

The figure gets closer and you can hear the grinding of machinery in its steps.

Te name ashram is emblazoned on its chest guard and as its chest guard opens revealing a screen.

It shows the battle of the village, but you are seeing it through Someone else's eyes. You quickly find out you are looking through cains eyes as the screen shows to running off and the battle continuing ....

" your presence awoke the sleeper ..... His escape awakened me...."

Krieg stirs and looks at the machinists paladin in wonder .

" holy shit..... A zealot prototype ...."

[Lafayra Rue]

Sorianna grabs the skulls of her brother and sister, holding them tightly to her chest. She slowly backs away from the geared up man but stops as the recording starts to play.

"What...what is it?" She asks Kreig over her shoulder?

[Thugren]

Krieg stands pushing past you.

" he is a mechanical golem.... A marvel of engineering. At ts center is a peice of brain tissue.. In this case cains an they made it exist for the sole purpose of hunting nightmare ."

Ashrams helmed head looks at you.

" did this unit succeede in protection of the one called sorianna? Nightmare is wounded for now.... Escape is necessary..."

[Lafayra Rue]

"Why is it so concerned with me? I barely know Cain...." She turns to looks at Kreig. "don't I?"

[Thugren]

The machine I silent as lorana stands.

" it's entire conciousness is built around that moment.. Cains mindset to protect to as the village from nightmare is what this thing feels. It ony understands that because that's all it knows."

The paladin nods...

" this unit was built to contain nightmare... The parasite has escaped... He will likely hunt you ..."

[Lafayra Rue]

Sorianna gazes down at the skulls in her arms, a profound sadness showing on her face. "I won't let my head adorn his dress...I promise you two that." She stands there for a moment, hugging the remains before speaking quietly. "Let's leave this place."

[Thugren]

The paladin turns away from you and motions for you to follow.

" they are gathering forces to apprehend you and krieg.... We have to escape through the fungal tunnels.."

Lorana grips your arm unsteadily as he walks..

" he's an obsidian user... Be wary of him.."
