"ORRI! Isn't this what you want?! The knight in shining armor?" The high elf seemed exasperated as she watched her friend seem to flounder in the very thing that she had dreamed of, constantly spoke about night after night. Konstantine was speaking the language of all of Orri's favorite books, and as much as she swooned, she equally started to question it. Seemingly confused by her own confusion and doubt, no she was being silly. The wolf man was dreamy and his voice was sweet and soothing, this manner was everything her books said that she wanted! Morrigan sighed and let herself be taken with his charm. Edea's brother rambled on with his sweet nothings, claiming to want nothing more than to protect her and save her, it seemed so sweet and delightful. Morrigan began to imagine them fighting alongside each other and sweeping a battlefield. His massive wolf form running alongside her as they battled together, the fires of conflict blazing around the land....when every few seconds a large fiery sword would appear in Konstantine's hands and his hair would flash red for a moment...uh oh....She had to shake her head to reset the day dream and get rid of....the other individual. "We would go fight this Maltese guy together, right?" She said with a dreamy tone, he looked at her confused. "Oh? Are you an archer?" He asked as Orri looked at him confused, "....no."
"A mage of some sort?"
"...uhh super no."
He stood there at odds with himself as Orri looked at him confused, "Um OH! How about we spar, and you can see what I do!" She said with excitement and a brilliant smile. Her innocent enjoyment of battle brightly on display on her face. The moment stood there for a moment, the silence was deafening. Edea's eyes widen for a moment, for she knew what was coming, she winced slightly as Konstantine opened his mouth.
The air flowed from his lips and echoed into the empty space between him and Morrigan, "...I don't fight women."
Morrigan stood there with her mouth slightly a gap. Showing the same sort of astonishment at difficult riddles or math problems, her mind to stunned to even be distracted. Her dear friends standing there for a moment as some winced and some looked at her with sympathy, Anaxa eventually coming over and lifting the martial artists and finally leading the team toward Malius, Orri mumbling to herself.
Orri finally noticed her surroundings as she was dragged up to a big fancy room from a rope and shackles, looking up the big guy sitting on a throne. The prospect of a fight bringing her back to herself. His energy was full of malus and malicious intent, her mind full of that feeling and the words of Konstantine lingering in her head. Anaxa and Orri teamed up against him and went blow for blow, until the man issued a challenge....which the distracted Orri hesitated and finally realized what he was asking, a surge of excitement and she raised her hand, only to find that one of those weird magic walls popped up in front of her with Anaxa and Malius inside, "Dammit!"
The feeling she got of this man, seeing the people in pain behind them, and MAYBE some jealousy, Orri wanted to help her, and pondered that magic is just energy, right? Morrigan sensed the energy of the spell and attempted to match the wavelength with the force cage and suddenly struck the side of it with five swift precise strikes and kicks, a major arcana of fate aiding her aim, as the spell suddenly shattered.
A look of dumbfounded astonishment on the villains face as he looked on at this stupid creature that defied all logic, "Be gone you kid!" He waved his hand forming a horrific and fiery portal above her as hand after hand grabbed her and pulled her in. Morrigan seemed to fall through an endless burning hell scape of horrors, tortures, and all the evils of Gaia......however Orri was busy with her own thoughts as she plummeted through he hells, "Man...I wonder what he meant....why does he not fight women, it's not like we were going to fight to the death or something....is there something wrong with me? it's just weird." She pauses to witness a few horrific scenes of what could only be war atrocities committed against the damned, she sighed, "Why would he say it...Drake has no problem fighting me......we spar all the time.....he loves fighting as much as I do....maybe Konstantine doesn't like fighting?" She reminisces for a moment thinking about sparring with Drake, and the edges of her lips almost curving into a smile, until she shakes her head and furrows her brow, "HEY! wait a minute...." She drops out of the fiery domain and looks around for Malius, "Only one guy gets to call me kid!......I MEAN....no one gets...to........" She shakes her head and tries to hit Malius a few times until he and Anaxa vanish, annoyed and confused she rushes over to the demons and takes one of them down to help the casters.
The battle slowed down and all the bad guys were dealt with in the room, Orri was left unsatisfied and a little....off, "What DO...I want?"
