Closed to Valdis:

It's the same path that she met him the first time, that Sion is walking again. He doesn't seem likely to end up on the ground this time, so that's a good sign... Right?

Open to Punchers and Punchees
Asruld makes his way back into the city. There's something obviously wrong even at first glance – golden light radiates from his skin, and he's trailed by black smoke. ... Black smoke that looks like blood, even.

Dare anyone approach? He's mumbling about something, and occasionally unstable laughter as well.

(Spoiler: She's gonna probably be skewered in the next one if that's okay)

Again, her attention is split, this time by the unexpected mechanical grinding and the display of blood. Though slightly panicked at the idea of being protected by the blood of an ally, she's nevertheless grateful for the protection. Not expecting the Swords to follow her, she takes to even higher skies, her palms turning down to face the earth as she calls forth her inner Light.

Flames erupt from everywhere, creating a barrier through which Sion surely won't be able to run. Now, maybe she can focus on evading those strange blades. ...maybe.

One is able to clip the top edge of her left wing, and for a moment, she's sure she's going to be run through. The sheer shock of the pain the simple touch causes her entire body to tense, but she moves immediately, keeping control of the fire, making sure Klaus is okay, and trying not to be skewered.

(no problems here-)

Yeah Asruld isn't liking this at all. These Goddesses are stronger than they seemed. But.. then again, that's how things were, wasn't it.

He does focus on Klaus when he moves, because honestly usually he was the only reason blood was moving about on the field. Asruld isn't one used to really having to dodge - he's a god, after all, and he heals - but before Klaus hits he seems to remember he's not where he ought to be, and takes a step to the side.

Klaus catches his shoulder, definitely hard enough to hurt him, but Asruld's blank expression doesn't budge as he stumbles back.

"Sword." Because that one sword he left with him is now perfectly able to go forward for the large man. Thank you for coming to him.

The other swords continue for Dove. The winged goddess did something, and then there was fire. Thus, if he gets rid of her, the fire will go away. Maybe she was protecting weaker goddesses.

(none here either - sorry I'm late tho!)

It was the blankness in the man's expression that left Klaus deeply disturbed. When he'd spoken with Sion, he had shown some level of reserve but he had been expressive, even somewhat animated.

This? This was bizarre.

Klaus only saw the movement of the blade at the last possible moment - a flicker of light along it's length caught his eye and he pivoted to the side. The edge caught his upper arm, leaving behind a long, clean gash.

Klaus used the momentum to swing another blow at Sion. He hoped Dove was doing alright with the dodging.
