sleeper walks over to xiylna to give her a hug. a single tear drips down his face. "you are just like my sister, you know. it was a shame when it was her time to go" and he gasps in grief, remembering his fallen sister, remembering the hallowed night she died

 

Sleeper wandered the halls of the manor house, looking for his target. he finds it, and moves in. the knife slides quietly in, and the only sound is that final thump. sleeper says a prayer and moves on. he had the target eliminated, time to collect his reward. he walks down the hallway when he notices his sister on the other side, and watches a silver flash and a quiet "oh" and a second thump hes heard today. "no-" he whispers. he has to go, however. it isnt safe to stay.

The hug goes through her cloud of vapor, since she has no body. She makes a mouth and smiles at him. 

Xiylna begins pouring as much Taint as she can into the bone scythe, corrupting everything holding it together.

The necromancer snaps his fingers, and a line of violet energy wraps around Altair's blade and holds it in place.

"You're some kind of demon summoner then? Interesting power, but it will not stop me." The necromancer ignores the flames, scythe spinning through the air to hit Sleeper from behind.

Altair struggled for a moment, but it was pointless. “Ithuriel!” He called.

The griffin landed and attacked the necromancer.

The Necromancer chuckles as Sleeper tries to cut out his heart. "Perhaps you don't understand. Do you know the most lethal form of magic?"

The scythe disintegrates as Xiylna Taints it, but the wound it caused Sleeper remains.

A shield of bones bursts from the ground between the griffin and the necromancer as the energy holding Altair's sword begins wrapping around his arm as well.

Yulli once again cowered away from the necromancer, terrified.

Xiylna turned from the necromancer and smiled. “We don’t need to worry about him. Or anything else. You don’t need to be afraid, see? It’s okay!”

"no, but i do know this" and he starts glowing gold. he screams in pain, the light burning his body. "die" he whispers and he becomes light, his body falling to the floor while he zooms through every part of the necromancers body, regulating his necromantic magic so he cannot use his magic, then exposes his body to the light, where the necromancers skin begins to crumble.

Xiylna turns away from Yulli just in time to see the necromancer collapse. “You hurt him!” She says, shocked.

“Sleeper!” Altair cried out, now free of the necromancer’s spell.

the light goes back into his body, and he screams an ungodly screech. he looks at the pile of dust, and rebuilds the necromancer. "you are free" he whispers, then passes out.

Oh, nevermind. Just unconscious.

The necromancer raises an eyebrow as he reforms from the dust. "Did he really just heal me after going to all that effort to kill me? A terrible plan. Not that it matters. As I was about to explain to him, the most lethal spell any necromancer will ever learn is not an offensive spell. Attempting to raise the dead is far more lethal than any attack I could pull off."

His fingers light up with crackling energy. "Who's next?"

The necromancer crouches down next to Sleeper, hand becoming wreathed in shadow. "Free? No. I will never be free so long as I live. Not until she is returned."

"then you have no purpose?" he asks, smiling through his pain. "you do not have to work for her. you died. you are free from her grasp" and his eyes close, revealing an eye pattern on his eyelids. "you... are freee..." and he takes his last breath in this world, one that sends a shockwave of demonic energy, years worth of demons saved for swords.

the good thing is, he isnt dead. not technically. if someone helps him, you could bring him back.

“You know,” Xiylna said quietly, “someone tried to bring me back after I died. It doesn’t work. And even if it does, it hurts, hurts a lot. Whoever she is, she doesn’t really want to come back.”

Oh, now I can do it.

"Sleeper!" Altair cried out. "No!" He races towards the fallen body of Sleeper. "Oh, no. Sleeper..." Altair kneels beside his body.

The necromancer throws up a shield to block the shockwave, but is still obliterated by it.

He pulls himself back together moments later, a drop of sweat on his face. "Fool. I work for the One of Worlds out of convenience, nothing more."

The necromancer spins on Xiylna angrily. "That's because it wasn't done right! will do it right, and it will work, and she will be back!" Shadows gather around him, and violet energy wraps around Xiylna, sending shocks of energy through her intangible form. "You don't know her. You don't know what she'd want. do."
