"Okay then. Good luck." Marston said.

"You really are close to being a lady." Persephone teased.
OOC: Going to bed. Night.

Lyra looked into Ness's eyes before breaking into a fit of crying, hugging her. "oh thank the fucking gods, you're here, you're really here!" she sucked in gasps of air and pulled away grom Ness, looking scared. "But- but what if you aren't really here? I- I need to- I need to do this, die on my feet with a sword and proud, then on my back as sickness takes me. Its what Long Fang would expect, what he'd want."
Yuki sighed a bit before going to sleep. [color=bb66bb] "Totally." [/color]

Ness looked at Lyra, sighing slightly before hugging Lyra back. "I'm actually here. And I'll end the fight before you end up on your back. ...Just trust me, Lyra."

Ness looked at Lyra, sighing slightly before hugging Lyra back. "I'm actually here. And I'll end the fight before you end up on your back. ...Just trust me, Lyra."
Lyra looked at Ness one final moment before nodding and pulling up a seat on a rock, wincing as her legs cracked in their movement. "Very well. At worst, you shall disappear in the morning, and I can challenge the poison master then. I shall sleep for the night, and try to gather my strength. And you?"
Ness would find the walls to be 50 feet high, and there would seem to be no reaction to her approach.

"No Ness! You're the only person that doesn't freak out at the sight of me! You can't die!" "Oh, quit worrying. Ness will do just fine. Now, lets load up the smoke mortar first."

Ness looked up and sighed slightly. "My wings... won't let me reach up there... Therefore..." She activated her eyes to see weakpoints and through cloaks before knocking on the door. "I'm here to challenge the poison master on behalf of Lyra Reed!"
A triangle section of the wall at its base slid into the ground, and the largest predator Ness would have ever seen stepped through. He cocked his head, examining her through his mask before speaking. "What purpose do you have in taking on the poison master? Humans like you do not have honor."
Ness looked up at the predator, slightly surprised. "I'm doing this as being, more or less, a member of her clan. She's not in any condition to take the poison master on her own... and seeing as I've saved her more than a few times.. I feel I'm qualified to duel him in her place."
The predator nodded, and moved away from the door, disappearing into the base. The door was left open.
Ness would find a city under construction in the fortress. Walls were being raised, infrastructure installed, generators built. The predator she had spoken to gestured for her to follow, and began walking down one of the established roads to a circular structures.
The predator spoke as they walked. "Our first permanent home in years. You can feel the buzz of excitement. The people are cheering for it, the idiots. They think we'll hold it. Dikuts all of them. We'll get scraped off by the locals because one who kills is afraid of a programmer. Dikut." He stopped speaking when they arrived at the circular structure. "Alright, enter. Take the sword they give you. Use only the sword. Understand? You won't get your antidote otherwise."
Ness would find herself in a pit reminiscent of ancient Romes coloseums. It had a simple dirt floor, and two doors, one where she entered and one opposite. Sitting in the center was a small stone block with two sword hilts sitting in it. The other door opened and an old predator with silver dreads walked in, his mask coated in light acid burns. Without hesitation he walked forward to the block, and stood waiting for Ness.
