Amethyst A smaller sea monster slices into Amethyst's side as she disorients him, her own blood leaking into the water from the deep cut. And his partner has his sights on Amethyst too. The other two look hungerly at Fudou the Megashark, and the Big Fish has just felt the weight of the Mountain. Blood is in the water, animas flaring, a full out brawl is happening just outside the immaculate city of Elderloch.

And one can see from within the city a rally of forces is taking place with fae of their own leading the charge, but it'll be a bit till they reach the scene.

Chaos is unfolding. What will you do?

Bright Journey That big, ugly thing sure was desperate to run Bright down, and she looked ready to try to make a break for it after he managed to nick her with a claw, or whatever monstrous appendage he's using this week. Bright is better armored than she looks, sure, but still that guy looks mean!

Fortunately, Bright isn't alone. Fudou is, as usual, the biggest thing around and when he's not hitting things with stone pillars, he's being a very obvious 50-foot siaka...and something that can attract the big lug's attention, fortunately. Bright wastes no time taking advantage of the distraction and quickly swims away, out of range. She draws an arrow and levels off, this time targeting one of the smaller fish creatures menacing Amethyst. It's out of position, and an arrow limned with silver purifying force slices towards the creature.

It hits the thing's scaly hide, sizzling and smoking, even underwater. It doesn't really do permanent damage, but it writhes in agony, trying to pull the thing out.

Amethyst As the other one is haplessly trying to unstick the arrow that's pierced his shell, Amethyst focuses her attention on the other. Her blood gathers into her whip, empowering further and further, driving her anima into a rage. As she strikes, her speed is too much for the thing as she manages to give a second one, both leaving light marks on her target. Her anima boils and then turns abruptly into a raging torrent of deark green against blue waters, vibrant ripetide with shimmering rainbows at the edge. One can feel her anima in its intensity.
Fudou the Mountain It's not easy being so huge. Huge and sexy if you were to ask him to elaborate. Huge and sexy and a frontline combatant in Creations various conflicts but..such is the lot of this chosen of Luna and he's certainly seen fit to embrace it. In this case, however, it means he's very much the center of attention but he's also counted on that in order to draw attention away from those who are not suited for these sorts of situations. Even if it means defending the Dragonblood. Not exactly something he ever thought would become a regular thing.

But there's no time to dwell on such matters as Fudou's building sized frame is assailed by the raiders, actually cutting inot his hide to draw blood forth though they seem basically like paper cuts against his massive form. He ignores them, instead turning his attention towards the leader of these mutants just as it assails him.

The advantage seems visibly clear though one can never be certain with supernatural forces at play.. But Fudou has tricks of his own, evident as his anima blazes powerfully to life, enwrapping his body with the silver nimbus of a yeddim headed warrior of mountainous size and essence trailing as it envelops Fudou's already gigantic form. He blazes like a silver comet into his attacker. The shockwave ripples through the area, shaking the sea bed floor as the mutant is flung backwards and Fudou barrels forward, passing overhead like a battleship.

Rishi Rishi looks surprised as Pearl slips out of her arms, but she manages to see the other woman swimming for cover and, while she frowns, Ammy definitely needs her protection. Rishi focuses on her love, stretching forth her wings, armored in moonsilver around Ammy, serving as shields against further damage.
Amethyst With both of those who were harrassing her out of it, Amethyst's anima flares into a mighty sea lion, calling out in black and greenish-blue waves of anima. Her tattoos shimmer intensely as the pressure one feels when she casts becomes tangible, reaching out to those who dared harm her.

But then for a moment the alchemist, so sure of herself and well practiced, loses focus as her side erupts and more blood comes gushing out of it. Her anima all but vanishes and leaves her there looking weak and very, very angry.

Bright Journey All right. It's go time.

Bright Journey is just out of claw range, the big ugly (whose name is now Big Ugly) is completely off kilter, and oh yeah, there's a siaka trying to gnaw his face off. Bright wastes no time and expends no mercy for a thing this powerful. She slaps another arrow to her bow and raises it skyward, drawing the string back.

As she does so, she pours an almighty fountain of raw Solar essence into Nightbane. Her anima erupts in a huge rippling wave of pure white all around her, with a shimmering, golden halo almost as tall as she is behind her head. The majesty and nobility of the Unconquered Sun flows into her bow, and the arrow erupts in a conflagration of roaring silver flame.

She levels the bow off at the Big Ugly while it's distracted by those rows and rows of teeth, and releases a flaming silver streak which drives straight into the creature's back, not between carapace plates so much as plowing straight through its thick armor. The moment it hits it detonates in a BRILLIANT flare visible for miles around, easily seen from the underwater city or even the surface. The explosion rips into the creature's back, though the fire it sets is quickly extinguished by the ceaseless water.

Fudou the Mountain To watch this happen, one might assume that fae aren't particularly smart or that their lack of true comprehension of those from Creation keeps them thinking clearly...otherwise one might wonder why a single one would attempt to go toe to toe against a fifty foot massive sea monster obviously exhbiting supernatural qualities with the blazing light embracing its form and yet here we are.

It also just be arrogance. Fae arrogance.


And then there's the other supernatural forces also assailing it but it opts to not retreat or even attempt that and instead stands its ground So yes. Likely arrogance..and once Fudou has circled back around again he rewards this by lunging in.

Again his maw yawns wide open, able to take a chunk from a Realm warship with its scope - and as he passes the creature - down the maw comes. A rumbling *CRUNCH* resounds as the behemoth crushes through shell, armor and body, most of the creatures torso and lower body vanishing in a spraw of blood and ichor and legs spiraling off towards the ocean floor.

Rishi Rishi's nose finally catches the scent of the Fae in the water and, realizing that those who attacked Ammy are also Fae... she feels rather better about their murder. Taking careful aim at the one in the weakest tactical position, silver essence threads through the greenery covering her arms, Rishi shoots forwards, her eyes guiding her slash as she cuts right through the weakest part of their armor.
	 Once slashed, she rejoins Ammy.
Amethyst Frustrated, hurting, bleeding steadily, and out of fucks to give, the dragon-blooded's anima raises one more time. Her whip expands into a venerable torrent of cutting, ripping water. Like a chainsaw composed of blood and water, she slices straight through the cursed thing's shell and leaves the fae cut in two as her whip reforms around her.
Bright Journey All right, the big guy is literally devoured and these little fish are still fighting? Way too dense for their own good, but Bright Journey has had more than enough of them...and with the power of Ignis Divine coming off of her in palpable waves, she is just -done- with these things.

Her anima, majestic and brilliant, all but -erupts- with overwhelming force, exploding out so powerfully that Bright herself almost can't be seen. It changes from dignified to seething, roiling, unstoppable power, washing over the entire battlefield. Her anima pulses with suffocating force for a hundred yards in every direction as she shouts a single word:

"ENOUGH."

It's as much a force pressing down on the willpower of Bright's enemies as it is a word. A terrible majesty that all but the mightiest would quail in terror from.

Amethyst The three remaining fae look towards Bright, and for a moment they're frozen. They briefly exchange looks and once they realize Amethyst just cut one of their members in two and Fudou ate another, they all vanish, scales and shells shimmering against the ocean, making a hasty escape.

As the remaining fae scatter, finally, maybe a bit late, the elite guard of Elderloch has finally found its way out here. Dressed in full armor made of various shells, armed with spears made of strange shimmering metals, these folks look ready to defend to their last. And out of the depths come other guards, seemingly out of nowhere, coming to surround the group of glowing Exalted.

Of course, being that the enemies are long gone by the time they arrive, there may be a bit of confusion. But just as things look like they're about to take a turn, the commander takes off her mask, with familiar pointed ears and violet eyes. She speaks with perfectly clearity despite the water.

"Daughter? What in the world do you think you're doing?"
