And out came a knight, bold and fearless, to bring Morgan down with his weapon. Riley took Jason with her, to return to Yuki's fallen form. She finally released Jason, and dropped down to her knees, to pull Yuki's unconscious body up into her lap. She held his head up, and opened his eyes, holding them open. Whether or not he could see was irrelevent to her.
She wanted him to watch the great knight fall.
"This is what you wanted." She whispered, into the unconscious man's ear. "This is what you all wanted. Congratulations. You win the grandest prize. Death, surrounded by more death. Look, look now at the bodies piling up on the ground. You're all so ******** sanctimonious, aren't you."
She dropped her hold on his eyelids, and let his unconscious head fall into her lap.
"Let's find out how right you really are."

[Cadence Enters]
Cadence wandered into the chaotic battle field, her eyes widening as she spotted Gawain’s body lying on the floor. The knight of protection had been going on about not following the king’s rules because the king was absent early but surely there had still been hope for him right? There was no reason to kill him over such a thing right just lock him up and deal with him later? Everyone seemed to be attacking Morgan, was he the one who killed Gawain? She watched as he flung his sword away and sat down stating that he did not kill and that they were following a mad knight. Wait was he saying that Percival was the one who had killed Gawain? If Percival was the mad knight then was then was the reason he had them destroy the bridge trap everyone inside the castle to start the fighting? Or was it Morgan whom everyone was attacking the one who went after the mirror the mad knight?
If it was Morgan why would he throw his sword away and open himself up to attack? Morgan trusted them. He trusted them; he had faith in them, faith that they would not kill them. They were knights they were supposed to stand together and fight the darkness and each other this was wrong this was all wrong and Cadence had no idea how to fix it. Who was right? Who to believe? She had no idea, the only thing that she knew is that she did not want anyone else to die, and there had already been one pointless death today in her mind.

"How do you know?" he asked the man, neither accusing nor genuinely curious but some mix of guarded and tired. "There is so little we're aware of, clearly. We are pointing fingers and weapons." Or arrows, in Jack's case.
He didn't know how to answer Holly anymore. One of his own attacked Morgan, and he did nothing but watch impassively. Chaos had been sowed in their ranks, but he stood quite still, his bow still in his grasp but his arrow still in the other fist. What were they to do now? Kill each other? Kill Percival? What of the other Knights, or the Great King?
"The sidhe are already among us," Jack said grimly as he watched one woman in particular. "If not them, their magic. All we can do now is prepare for the worst."

Time seems to stop. Morgan turns to look at Lex just for a moment longer. The look in his eyes is that of disbelief. He staggers backwards, and then he grabs a hold of Lex's arm, digging his nails into the knight until they drew blood.
And then he simply crumples.
It was over.

Alexei stared as Morgan fell, unflinching as he was grabbed and scratched to the point of bleeding. The look in his eyes, the disbelief and shock of a man who did not think this were possible.
Was he in disbelief that he'd been seen through? Or in disbelief that they were not loyal to him? That death had grabbed him? That he'd been betrayed by his own?
He was silent for a long while, listening to the conversations of the others. He grew angry, and very afraid.
"Are you so blind?" Alexei trumpeted, eyes still wide as the actions he'd just taken sunk in like a boat full of holes. He, Alexei, had just killed a Great Knight, one of their leaders. This was treason, this was mutiny. This was-
Right.
"Morgan was the sidhe. He made you move the mirror, and look what has happened!" Alexei waved his hand around the cocoon, at the spewing miasma. "Surely he was deceiving us all!"
Morgan had to be, or else. Or else-
He too was a dead man.

Sammy slowly walked over to Morgan staring at the knight as Lex finished him off. She turned to the knight Apprentice shrugging, "He deserved it regardless of how this ends."
Jason could only look on in shock, barely registering Yuki's warning before her claws were on him.
"W-wha- ick!"
He cried out as the claws tore through his face, before they closed tightly around his neck. By now he had realized that something was seriously wrong with her, but he was unable to do anything, his voice a chocked gasp trying to draw air. His eyes were wide as he clawed at Riley's hands desperately, able to see Yuki fight off the mad knight but unable to do anything no matter how hard he struggled. And when he saw Yuki finally fall he feared the worst, Tears prickling at his eyes as his vision began to swim with the lack of oxygen.
It was then he felt her hands release him, and he fell to his knees, rubbing his neck and drawing in much needed breaths of air.
Once Riley had knelt down to hold Yuki's head in her lap, he looked at her, confused and fighting to keep his emotions down.
"R-riley...Why?!"

Thomas shrugged. "Maybe he was once..." His voice trailed off and he could only watch on, crossbow lowering, as events unfolded from there. He was tired too, his efforts in vain. The sidhe were outside, likely ready to pour in and tear them each apart, and yet here they all stood, fighting amongst themselves.
Morgan was taken down, and he half expected the brute like red knight to rise again, laughing, or cursing them again.
"He didn't need to kill Gawain." He tacked on, though he knew he was just stating the obvious. Or was he? What if there was just so much that they didn't know?
But that was just it, they didn't know, and it felt more like Gawain's death was just a way to stifle him, to keep him from telling them something, that perhaps, Percival didn't want them to find out about. Secrets upon secrets.
Paranoia ate away at Thomas's insides until he felt sick, and he shifted in place, crossbow still lowered. He had no plans on firing it again anytime soon.

Gawain had fallen first, it was only a small surprise to Lass as she grinned wickedly she had assumed that Percival would have fallen even quicker but she had guessed wrong. Should have known that someone carrying around only a little staff didn’t realize stand a chance with real weapons, but she had to give some credit the plant attack was rather interesting.
Failed but it was still worth the credit of interesting, this however only caused the battle to pause for a moment. It was as if she could hear the entire ground crumbling away from some of the knights as Morgan pointed out the flaw in Percival’s actions, the act of murdering a comrade. A sneer formed on her lips as Lass gripped her hammer not hesitating to think about her next action. Morgan had always been right, that she was sure of as she lunged forward swinging heavily at the so called great Percival.
Only to stop in mid attack. Something was wrong.

Shun stopped and stared as one of the other knight apprentices managed to land a killing blow onto Morgan. Good, he thought initially. The Sidhe was rid of with now. Well. That one, at least.
He took a few moments to look down at the body of the fallen knight, watching him carefully, lest he suddenly spring back to life with some strange magic.
The danger was far from over, however. Morgan was likely not the only one. Percival could very well be one as well, he still believed. As with a number of others in this room.

And all Jason would get as a response, all they could hear as Morgan clutched Lex, and fell down dead, was riotous, maniacal, body shaking laughter.
Hollandaise had felt frozen, her feet unmoving. And movement only came to her when Morgan lay, crumpled at Lex's feet.
"How could you?" and it was directed at both Percival and Lex as she ran over. Percival for allowing this to happen, allowing a knight-apprentice to murder a great knight while he watched, safe from rebuke. And Lex for his killing blow. "Since when has murder been the way of knights, Percival?" she spat. Throwing caution to the wind, she dropped to her knees near Morgan, checking for a pulse, for any sign of continued life. She couldn't fix this....

Wrath had been nearby when it happened, but for some reason, had not acted in time to stop it. Or maybe, he just respected the great knights wishes, the way he had thrown his sword onto the pile of treasure certainly indicated that he was putting the other knights to the test, and for some reason, Wrath doubted he would appreciate any interference.
And so he simply watched, idly twirling his hammer in hand, until the moment when it all ended.
And then he continued to stare, dumbfounded, at what had just occurred.
Like Holly he moved to the red knights side and dropped to his knees as well (once he could actually think enough to move again). "Is he...?" His voice was a low, mumbled rumble, and without thinking, he reached out to prod the great knight with the handle of his war hammer.
Wrath hoped that this was just kind of sick, twisted lesson.

Matt was not sure what was going on, in one moment he was standing there defending Percival the next moment he watched as the great knight’s blue blade pierced Gawain’s chest. His brain was running over a thousand words a minute as it tried to tell him no, no, no this wasn’t possible. It wasn’t so much the watching of someone die, no, it was the more of the fact that someone he had admired and had considered a great protector had murdered another. Another Great Knight, this was not how comrades were suppose to be. This was not how they were suppose to protect the kingdom, they were not suppose to turn on one another.
There was a feeling of the world he knew slowly crumbling beneath his feet as Morgan had laughed, he had laughed knowing that what had happened was wrong. Even the man he opposed had known better than the man he had considered a role model. Now even Morgan laid dead, this was all wrong, wrong, wrong. Matt felt sick to his stomach as his world started to blur with thoughts as if he should escape the room. His feet wouldn't move, he just remained there standing horrified.
