He reached into his pocket and pulled out his battle-ax.

I kept it in the muffin bag. Haven't pulled it out in a while, he grinned at her.

"Yeah, well, you already got in danger. I'm sick of you being a hostage." She turned toward the pale man. Livetha, sensing her intent, connected her to his soul. She tore at it as she had before (it prolly doesn't do much @xinoehp512 cuz she's already tired), but she started seeing stars, and her ability to hold Livetha's strength and speed and all the other random stuff she'd borrowed snapped. 

She swayed, then steadied herself against the wall. 

Standing up is hard.

Salems Shadow Girl reached Shoe, and relayed her message

The man extended his hands, launching vines to wrap around Tam. "You will not stop me!" he snarled. "I will return the Witherlord to this world!"

Tam dodged these easily, trading the rifle out for a sword to slash at the vines.

Whoa- okay, Shoe gently towed her back behind the wall. I think you're the one who shouldn't be fighting right now.

She felt the pale man's utter devotion to the cause of ending everything.

Jilu is still on the battlefield, where Platypus just made his big announcement.

Pyk is with the dragon, yes? It swung at the woman, who attempted to bite it. However that goes is yet to be decided, but I doubt it will end well for her.

The man growled and made a motion with his hands. Vines began to grow from the ground in all directions around Tam.

Two more guards crawled up out of the hole, each armed with a mordite blade. One charged at Sequence, the other at Asher.

@Sequence @The sarcasm spren

The man extended his hands, launching vines to wrap around Tam. "You will not stop me!" he snarled. "I will return the Witherlord to this world!"

The man gave one last final scream and died.

A dark spirit ripped its way free of his body as he did so, face a melted reflection of his own.

Cricket collapsed, watching as the corpse fell. His head felt strangely light. He knew he had only a few seconds of consciousness left and he knew that he didn't have enough strength to portal from Soul World. He would be stuck, bleeding out in Soul World, and nobody knew he was here. He reached out, feebly attempting to make a portal. It emerged, barely a foot high and flickered. It would not last very long. He seized a handful of soul matter, forming a paper note with a message inscribed. He shoved it through the portal, with his last strength and fell unconscious, bleeding out next to the man's corpse, as the portal flickered. It appeared on the floor of the manor.

The note read: If you find this, get Bacon or any Narrator immediately. Tell them I am on Soul World and I need your help. I won, but I'm trapped here. Rescue Shoe, he's more important than me. - Cricket

Well then.

Tam, who could not fly, dodged those vines as well, streaking towards the pale man.

mmmmmmwhat

her shadow powers because she is controlled by withergeist and the sheer amount of withergeists are making her powers go CRAZY she cannot stop it. 

heeheehee- TIME LIMIT!!!

also because eventually, if not taken out of the shadow, Salem herself will be consumed by her shadow

Ah! What is- who?!

I'm fine. I'm fine. I...

She stared at him. Why didn't she want him to fight? It was the smartest option. It made sense. 

But... he was the sweetest person she'd ever met, and... 

The mental connections all snapped before she finished her thought-- and she cared more about him than she'd ever cared about anyone. 

Beosta blacked out. 

--

Geioh had thought of going upstairs in the manor to hide from the withergeists, but Bat followed. 

Unfortunately, Geioh got distracted by Bat's loud clomping and got possessed by a withergeist. 

Bat ran away to where the others were.

I have a character that is the personification of madness…

Her name is Madness. And she was a bit too powerful (that type of power), so I had to nerf her.

  Hacob laughed uproariously as waves of energy pulsed from him, slamming the rabbits away, though he was careful not to kill any. [I told you I would give you the tasty thing if you helped me, but you chose not to. This is your reward!]

Platypus heard the Valiant One. Remarkably, he did trust him. He had respect for the General. The Brave Adventurer's claims surrounding the Blade were accurate, but there was more to the story. The rest of the Council deserved to know the truth.

Instead of attacking the Silent Hero, Platypus quickly wrote a speech and Created a megaphone. It didn't actually do anything, but would hopefully avoid breaking the mind of the one who Onyx wouldn't let know the nature of the world.

"Silent Hero. Valiant One. General," he called, voice clear over the sounds of combat. "Some of what the information the Brave Adventurer told you is true. But there is more to the story, information that he might not have known, or that he intentionally omitted. I would ask that you put the conflict on hold while I explain this."

"TP. Selppaenip. Nogard. Subversion. Everyone else who is fighting. Hold your fight. This is the Council of the Brave Adventurers. The Valiant One is perhaps the most honorable person currently living in the world. The Silent Hero, the antithesis of herodom. The General, an elite fighter who has fought for what is right. They do not want the world to be destroyed."

He raised his voice. "I have seen what happens if only one Blade is claimed. And I have a plan to stop that. But it will require all of you to work together. Please, everyone stop fighting while this gets explained. We don't want any more innocents to die."

Jilu shifted back from her monster form. Platypus turned red. “Perhaps these rabbits might get off of me, though?”

@TwinStorm

so I know I said I wouldn’t kill you, 

But would you mind if I did?

Shoe caught her as she crumpled to the floor.

Beosta?

She didn't respond.

Beosta . . . ? Ohhhh this was a really bad time for you to pass out.

Platypus shifted himself back to his normal color. Then he summoned his Luxblade in the form of a staff, hitting it on the ground and sending the rabbits flying into the air, without falling back down.

Not at all!

Remember, Narrators can literally wish anything they desire into reality. Hard to get much more powerful than that.

Pyk sighed. The woman wasn’t fighting nearly as well as he had hoped. He withdrew a small orb from his stash of weapons, pressing down a button. Small metal claws poked out from the orb, and he chucked the orb at the dragon. It crawled along the back, reaching the eye, and, before the dragon could react, sending a weapon used beam of light through the eye and to the brain. It jumped off, and returned to Pyk. He picked it up, and restored it to his stash. Next he teleported the dragon’s body to a processing center, and returned.

He stared at the woman. “How do you want this to go?”

Tam leapt to the side and sliced the man with her sword.

The sword sank into the pale man's flesh, then black vines began to grow out of where the sword had pierced. They held the sword in place. The pale man yanked his arm backwards, trying to throw Tam off-balance, and struck again.

"Die," she spat, and attacked.
