The soldiers were frozen, but fire burst from them just as quickly.

The influence of Rage was real, but it didn’t seem to be coming from Rage.

Intellect was sending help, columns of ice emerging from the shield he had up

@Argenti

The ice burst forth, pushing past the fire and freezing a number.

Far above them, the sky began to glow.

Wow

The fires started to wink out, but then some… force… brought them back, albeit weaker.

She twisted them further. In their home world, she had been worried about hurting the people whose emotions she influenced. She had no such restrictions now, twisting them even to physical pain.

Finally

The flames flickered out, and the men crumpled, ice claiming them. There were screams, and some of them started to bleed - as if they were Servants.

She held it slightly longer to assert dominance, then finally released them.

Jakob lets out a sharp, cruel laugh, shaking his head before muttering to himself "And so it begins." 

A young man walked through the forest, with his quiver and hunting bow... He sing-thinks, memories of the tales his grandmother told him, of Joy, of Agony, and callous spirits flashing through his head.

He smiles.

Seems like Jakob was right. A loss of humanity.

You know

 

I waited sooo long for someone to use Mirth’s power to its full extent.

AND NOBODY DID

It made me sad

But this makes me happy!

Can Kino get some magic things? Also...

Ison ripped through the line, taking down one attacker after another. Kino took on another group, resorting to pure savageness.

She looked at them. "They're Rage's. You remember what they're capable of."

She looked back at them. A hint of regret began to creep into her eyes.

She sighed and gave Felicity a hug.

"It's okay. I-I can see why you did it."
