((I already made that canon btw when I explained the whole backstory to people in universe. You know, the rogue guardians and Pyro and all that.))

Airis has suddenly taken the lead and is standing at a corner, gesturing towards something I can't see yet because it's behind the corner. "Here we are," he says, as I walk around the corner to see a faint glow from a portal that without doubt leads to the Nether. It's like something ripped through spacetime, to discover the hellish dimension on the other side of the fabric. I step closer to it, a bit lost in the moment of staring at the portal...

The air around the rift starts cracking and sparkling as I approach it. Immediately I snap out of it and assume a more cautious stance, although I can't stop myself from moving closer. I finally reach my left hand through the portal... only to pull it back at the same moment. It stings, hurts like hell. This portal exceeds anything I've ever seen before in terms of levels of magic used to create or improve it, there is no doubt this caused Remilia's corruption. And with that much magic... there is a considerable chance that it will break loose of it's Guardian and starts transforming this planet into the hellish nightmare that lies behind it.

But there is no time to worry about that right now. The only thing I can do about the portal at the moment is a couple of protective sealing spells, which will unfortunately take away quite a bit of my energy.

"Guys, go outside and wait for me at the entrance," I tell my companions. "I have some business to do here. Shouldn't take more than an hour." After a bit of thinking, I add: "Or Himinn could also go and look for the Guardian of Aether or Purification, while Airis stays here with Remilia and waits for me at the entrance, that way we can cover more ground faster. If you decide to do that, I guess we'll meet at the crater."
Himinn nodded. "I guess that works. See you later, I guess..."

And she flew away.

Unknowingly, however, she was only going deeper within the cave.

I notice that as I draw near to where I remembers the consciousnesses of the other Guardians the stars grow brighter. I can see well now, despite it being quite dark still. I hear voices and call the shadows to hide me. One Guardian breaks off from the group, and I begin to follow them
((Is that me, because that's the only possibility I can see, unless I missed something...))

((EDIT: I can understand Endy's quote getting BCOLORs, but what I wrote myself?!))

((yeah you're doing it wrong too (happy?)))
((Yes obviously))
((WHAT :[ Why aren't I included in this war party planner ))​
((Because we're all connected by back stories and stuff :] ))

It stings, hurts like hell.
((That pun though))

((Is that me, because that's the only possibility I can see, unless I missed something...))
((Pretty sure that's Caff))

Guardian of Corruption
Cyra sighed silently. That was a bad lie, especially for her own standards. She casted a furtive glance at Kysa, still trying to grasp the fact that she's the Guardian of Purification. Her own opposite aspect! How should she feel about that?

What to do? She's on a sphere of dirt with two or three landscapes and several creatures including multiple Guardians and a Frost Phoenix. Remilia's under magic taint. Light's under some nightmare slumber. Every creature is confused and concerned about its situation, past, and future. Hmm... Remilia... Cyra still needs to find the Guardian of the Nether.

Is it time to leave once again? Life's caring for Light though. It doesn't seem right to leave any of her companions for some reason. She walked to the nearby lake and sat down on the edge. Cyra stared at her reflection on the clean and pure lake.

(( But we're ALL connected by backstories and you guys aren't the only ones in the war :[ ))
((It was mainly just that I wanted to make a connection to Pyro in the story, so Claire made a PM with me and std to discuss it. I can add more people to it and turn it into the previous planet plotting place like you guys want, though, if wanted, though it was generally just meant to be a discussion between the three of us :3))

"Or Himinn could also go and look for the Guardian of Aether or Purification, while Airis stays here with Remilia and waits for me at the entrance, that way we can cover more ground faster. If you decide to do that, I guess we'll meet at the crater."

Remillia frowned. "Wouldn't that l-leave you... a-all alone, in the dark, r-r-right next to an un-protected portal? For Himinn, I'm p-presuming tha.. that's her name, she'd at least be able to escape if..." She trailed off, her head starting to swim. For a moment she tried to collect her thoughts again, and looked around her. Himinn, the hooded girl, seemed to be gone. She looked puzzled for a moment and then realized it's probably because she already took off. She sighed, slightly annoyed she missed such an obvious thing. Her head was starting to clear a little, so she returned to her thoughts.

"M-Maybe I should sit and rest here near you... A-Airis would be alone, but... I can't really do m... much to help..."
'And I wouldn't want to help that angelface anyway.' She mentally added, smiling a little at the fact she had to restrain herself from insulting others. What a wonderful person she was.

((and yes i am getting a little tired of constantly stuttering but if it is for the plot i shall do anything))

"I guess that works... see you later," Himinn says as she floats away around a corner. Remilia seems to be disturbed by the proposition though. "Wouldn't that l-leave you... a-all alone, in the dark, r-r-right next to an un-protected portal? For Himinn, I'm p-presuming tha.. that's her name, she'd at least be able to escape if..." She trails off, it's obvious she doesn't have much time until the taint takes control of her. She looks incredibly weak.

"Look, I'm about to cast proctective sealing spells on your portal, which is bound to your element and therefore bound to you. If you're too near, you will get even weaker. I can't stop you from staying here, but I suggest you reconsider."

"Doesn't matter. I-It will make me weaker, b-but I won't be in the way of... of the efforts the others are t-t-taking to try and save me." Remillia squirmed out of Airis' arms and slowly propped herself against a rock. She felt much safer sitting down on solid ground with something to lean on, rather than being carried around all the time. There was something that had just occurred to her though: What if she went insane while he was in the middle of casting? He would be completely vulnerable, and she could easily kill him in that time... But it hadn't even been a full day yet, and if she focused entirely on keeping herself sane, she could last about half a day more before the magic taint kicked into full effect... but while being weakened by magic...

It was risky, but she wasn't about to change her mind.

"I'll t-t-try not to go completely i-insane on you, Magic." She said with a smile.

((fear and death why are we not antagonist buddies this isn't the picnic you're all playing it out to be))
((Fear and Death decided not to act as humanity stereotypically portrays them, seeing as many cultures fear not only those two, but also the unknown, I commend both of them for not being evil simply because of their element. I also commend you for not playing an evil character either.))

Every creature is confused and concerned about its situation, past, and future.
((I wouldn't say every creature is confused or concerned for itself... you do have that occasional life form who's brain isn't even functioning.))

"I'll stay, Endal. I'm not leaving you both here. You both clearly need as much help as possible. Plus, I'm not leaving Remilia just laying there all alone. She seems too... weak. I understand it might make we weaker but it's a chance I'm willing to take"

*Airis sees a big rock diagonally from the portal*

"I'll be with Remilia behind that rock. You do what you have to do"

*Airis gives him a smile, takes Remelia with him and then lay down behind the rock*

The Guardians of Water and Fear

[[Context in case everyone forgot <3 : The group of Pyro, Fauna, and Ross came across Takot, and soon after, Alouette. The group began walking towards the cave. Ross told Takot to hang back because he needed to talk to him.]]​

Takot felt a tug on his shoulder and turned to see Ross telling him to hang back from the group. He was confused, but cooperative. "Uh...Okay. Why are we staying back?"

Ross waited to make sure the others had advanced out of earshot. Once he was certain, he turned to address Takot with a grin. "I saw your sudden interest upon mention of Remillia. What did you have in mind?"

Takot shifted nervously, his eyes darting from side to side. "What!? Interst?" Takot interrupted himself with a series of odd noises, including: Pfffft, heh, ahh, etc. When he was able to resume comprehensible speech, he was still rather flustered and blushed. "What do you mean 'interest'?"

Ross laughed quietly, but he couldn't contain himself and nearly busted out laughing. He quelled the laughter, but his voice was still quite loud. Luckily, the others didn't notice. "I saw the way you instantly perked up when you heard her name. Now quit denying it. Tell me what you had in mind. Some way to impress her, perhaps?"

Takot gave in, and laughed at his childishness. Actually, he did quite feel like a teenager talking about girls this way. "Alright, alright! Yeah, okay, I admit it. Just don't tell anyone okay? I have been trying to think of a way to impress her. You know, win her over."

It was all Ross could do to conceal his wolfish grin. Not that he would tell anyone, it wasn't in him to lie....Concealing the truth maybe, but not lying. "Yeah, don't worry about it. Just don't do anything stupid."

"Heh, alright." Takot stared off for a moment, contemplating a question. After a moment of hesitation, he decided that Ross could indeed be trusted. He turned back to address the Guardian of Water, "Hey, do you know any way I could impress her?"

"Not one that isn't crazy, reckless and bound to make everyone more afraid of you than they naturally are. I wouldn't want to give you any ideas." Ross turned his head away so Takot cannot see his wolfish grin. He was just goading him into further questions, making him anticipate his idea. That way, he'd be more inclined to go through with it.

Unknowingly, Takot fell right into it. "Hah, come on, it's not like anything could get any worse. Lay it on me!"

Ross couldn't help but laugh inwardly. He didn't know why, but he was quite enjoying meddling with this one. Contrary to this, he stayed composed as he laid out his 'idea,' "You're the Guardian of fear. You're trying to impress the Guardian of Nether. The portal's already open. What do you suppose would happen if you were to use your powers in there?"

A polar opposite to what he had felt just a minute prior, Ross was inwardly petrified. He remembered his dream of Remillia and Pyro overlooking a terrifying Nether. Takot wasn't there, but that didn't mean he had no hand in it. Still appearing nonchalant he continues, "But, that's crazy. She'd probably just hate you."

He couldn't help but mess with Takot like this. It seemed somewhat against his will, but he enjoyed it all the same.


Takot seriously considers the idea before coming to a conclusion. "Hm, that actually seems like a really good idea!" He hesitates and adds in an undertone, "Unless, of course, it just makes her hate me..." Takot suddenly felt vulnerable because Ross seemed to dwarf him in presence. Ross seemed like a really nice guy, pretty powerful, and not afraid of him either. He was so excited about the latter, that he didn't stop to think about why. Tentatively he asked, "Ross? This is going to sound silly...But will you be my friend?"

Ross was quite enjoying his conversation with Takot, and so felt oddly guilty for messing with him like this. The guy's so lonely, he'd probably find companionship with his own shadow. "Of course I will, if you promise not to be my enemy." Despite the fact that he was accepting a request for friendship, Ross couldn't help but plant doubt. Again, he felt bad for it. Hopefully this will stop soon. Am I still corrupted? ...I heard the others are looking for the Guardian of Purification. Maybe she could help me....

Takot's face absolutely lit up. "Wow, thanks! You probably don't believe it, but I've never had a friend before!" He saw a shadow pass over Ross' face and immediately became both worried and self-conscious. "Err, are you okay? You look troubled....Is it something I said?!"

Ross shook his head, half a gesture to dispel Takot's worry and half to clear his own mind. "No, it's nothing about you..." Ross looked around for the group that they let advance without them, and they were further away than he had thought. Ross seized the opportunity to change the subject before he could be further questioned. "They're pretty far ahead of us, we should hurry and catch up." Before Takot could protest, Ross ran off towards the group.

Alouette glances back as two of the group fall behind--it's not that they're slow, it's that they don't want to be overheard. 'Just as well. They'll be fine on their own.' She looks ahead; there's no change in terrain. 'We've still got a long way to go, then... I hope Remilia will be all right for just this much longer.' She sighs and walks on. Just a moment later, Ross catches up to the group, leaving Takot behind.
Alouette eyes him warily. "Why so secretive?"

((That's my character's thoughts/opinions, Cyra's not an all-knowing powerful being.))

((Activity will drop dramatically over the next 4 weeks. I'm staying as a knocked out unconscious body 'till then cx sorry))

((At least Fiesta had a reason. Shane is just lazy >:[ ))

Guardian of Corruption
Cyra narrowed her eyes at the clean and pure water. Her reflection did the same. Both of their eyes flashed and the reflection disappeared. She started. A blotch of dark liquid floated where her reflection was. Cyra quickly scooped up the liquid. After multiple attempts, she dumped the liquid onto the mud nearby, hoping that the liquid had no negative effects on soil. She glanced around; no one noticed. Corruption stains everything pure doesn't it?

She turned her head as Death spoke for the first time after arriving at the crater. He muttered something about leaving, then stepped into some mysterious mist. A bit cliché but okay. She turned her head, looking at Hope, Life, and Kysa. Hope didn't speak much, deep in thought perhaps? Life and Kysa seemed concerned about Light, who did not show any signs of improving.

Cyra's first priority was still Remilia. However, she's stuck in this mess. Kysa mentioned Alouette, maybe this creature can help them find Remilia?

Cyra closed her eyes and lay down. With her eyes closed, she couldn't corrupt anything. Well, she never tested it; she just assumed it. There's a certain pleasure corrupting objects and creatures. Is it because she gets to see them suffer? Is it because she has power over them? Or is it an automatic response from Corruption? She sighed. Maybe... they should just... relax and... wait a bit? Nothing else to do anyways. Running back and forth from the lake to the cave causes confusion and miscommunication. Yeah... just... relax a bit...

Guardian of Life

ζωή tended to Light as he was in his state when she heard Death speaking behind her about leaving. She turned to look at him, listening to what he was saying when he gestures to her, "Keep that rock I gave you," He says and she glances down at the slightly glowing rock resting in the shallow pocket of her shorts. Zwn turns her head back to thank him when he steps into some black mist and vanishes. She blinks, slightly confused and intrigued by his sudden disappearance. But mostly annoyed. Like, the nerve of this guy just stepping into some mist and leaving without any explanation or even a tiny bit of sympathy towards the poor boy lying in some sort of freaking nightmare coma?! She scoffs quietly, looking back at the spot he was standing. How inconsiderate of him, not like it shouldn't have been unexpected, he's Death after all. Only cares about himself, not giving a damn about others she fumes within her mind.
