The final striped Zombie had fallen beneath his blade. Despite getting pegged by that odd befashioned Zed, he didn't mind. He did mind, however, having been hit twice by that spazz zombie and it having no fear of repercussion. That ended right now. He whipped around and brought the full wrath of Neo Abyssian down on the sonuvabitch. He was ready to leave this room and move on. There was no other way.

Alyx finished sorting through his inventory and stood back up. Nothing had changed, but he seemed more confident. They had cleared this room, and with minimal damage. They were getting the hang of things. Three rooms down. They proceeded with all haste through to the next area, and were met with a grisly sight. The zombies were... Not glassy eyed, but candy-eyed. Their irises glittered like rock candy, and their teeth were utterly decayed, more so than the previous encounters. They moved with a deliberate pace, and the air became thick with the scent of burned sugar. Alyx was somewhat concerned. He rushed forward, though, and made a decision. His sword and shield glowed white before disappearing. In their places were two incredible-looking replacements. Masterful spider gear. The sword's crossguard wrapped its legs around Alyx' gauntlet, and the shield's fangs stretched out hungrily. Batting the nearest zombie's outstretched arms aside, Alyx plunged his radiating sword into its chest.

Rota finished off the b*****d that hurt him so. It was more of an annoyance, sure, but it was the principle of it, ya know? As he and Alyx stepped into the next room he saw one zombie shamble his way and he saw something out of the corner of his eye as he thrust at the midsection of the zombie. It was a flash of light as the weapon he had made for Alyx were switched with two weapons that he had never seen before. At a GLANCE the Artisan could tell that these were better than the ones he had made for the Gloomking. as Rotas blade inched ever closer in bullet time he heard himself say involuntarily "What in the hell are THOSE!?"

Alyx' blade had buried itself hungrily in the chest of the undead irritant before him, and he twisted the knife as it were. With his blade inside his enemy, Alyx uppercut Gloomfang with Aegis of the Usurper, blasting the blade upward and out of the monster, tearing a gnarly gash through the skull of his opponent, and hopefully settling the matter. "Oh, these? Just some old backups I had laying around." He looked at the bits of zombie brain left on his legendary sword. "I didn't want to mess up Gloomshard and gloomguard, so I switched out to these. Use leads to wear, tear, and rust, and that's a real waste."

The unveiling of Alyx's superior weaponry threw off Rota HARD. As the Zombie started ignoring him he thrust the blade into its back, showing it waht the punishment was for ignoring its primary threat. "Your backup weapons should not be stronger than your normal ones! Why would you limit yourself like that are you suicidal!?" The back of his throat was glowing brighter the more he was getting worked up. Why would Alyx do this? How long had he had these? How much of that dungeon could they have cleared out if he had just used these to begin with? These were all fairly important questions to him. It didn't matter to him that Alyx HAD stronger things than what he had made for him, just why was he only choosing NOW to use them?

Alyx took hard hits again. He was hurting. Near 70% of his max health. It wasn't unbearable, but it was definitely lower than he would like. He needed to work on getting some survivability. Rota was doing well enough, barely even scratched during this whole dungeon. "Better? Not necessarily better. Just different. They look more impressive than they really are." He saw an opening in one of the zombie's defenses as it fell past Alyx while attempting to strike him. Gloomfang radiated light as Alyx slashed an 'x' into its face.

Rota had to come to terms with the fact that he was now in possession of a life deficit that was not coming back on its own. What he hadn't come to terms with was Alyx's bullshit. he turned to the nearest zombie to him and did his best to barrel the sword clean through it. "Please. Don't give me that. I MADE Shard and Guard. Do you honestly think I can't tell when I see something that surpasses them in every regard? Both of those are almost on the level of Neo Abyssian!" He was not going to let up. Rota had proven himself very determined in the past, and he would not let that precedent slip by.

Alyx took two more hard hits. This was not going well. He was almost to half health, and they were in the fourth room. He didn't know how much longer this dungeon went on, but it was not treating the Gloomking in the manner to which he was accustomed. True, he wasn't getting totally rocked by these hits, but his health was steadily declining, and it was making him uncomfortable. The stink of scorched candy filled his nostrils as the sickly sweet zombies pressed on him, and he slashed at the same zombie he'd just given a facelift, hoping to trim off the last piece of its health bar. "I'm not sure I know what you're talking about. Neo Abyssian is unparalleled." A distinct lack of healing capability was suddenly very evident to Alyxandeyr. He'd always relied on his inability to be injured, but on a level playing field he was vulnerable to damage, and the elevation of that field made the rookie healing artifacts that he possessed were woefully ill-equipped to deal with his level seventeen maladies.

Rota shook his head and sighed as he continued to take his frustration out on the zombies trying to eat him alive. The saccharine death cloud surrounding them assailed his senses as he fought them off him. He was taking small hits here and there, but he needed to take more if they were going to get out of this dungeon with any speed. Alyx couldn't keep taking all of the damage like this. If this kept up he was going to be beating this dungeon alone, and he wasn't confident he could do that. "That's why the word 'almost' was there. Whatever. Here I was thinkin' you trusted me after all we had been through together. I'll keep that mistake in mind."

Alyx' blade crossed the zombie's throat and turned him into an undead Pez dispenser. Alyx lowered his blade, sagging his shoulders softly and catching his breath. "That is so beneath you." He looked down at the equipment as the sword and shield seemed to tighten their grips on his hand and arm jealously. "I got lucky. I found them, and I've been saving them for a special occasion. Seeing as how we're going to die in here, I figured it was as good a time as any." He started walking toward the next passageway. "But we really don't have time to spend too long thinking about it. These things seem to like me, and they aren't getting any weaker. We take too long and we won't need to worry about what equipment we're using." The next room didn't disappoint: five zombies. Two were wearing rusted armor, dragging swords behind them. One was crackling with electricity, another had glowing pustules that pulsed with light, and the last zombie seemed to have shaved a little too close this morning. Its tongue hung from a jawless mouth, and it pulled its head back, letting a deafening shriek out, which resonated off the walls of the cave to sound like the wailing of a horde of the dead and dying. Alyx braced himself against the shriek and made a decision to strike the screaming zombie to shut it up.

Name: Gloomfang Description: A legendary straight sword harvested by Alyxandeyr, the Gloomking, from slaying a Gloomweave Spider. The blade, which sprouts from the mouth of a small gloomweave spider, glistens with a sickening sheen, venom permanently coating its silvery-purple edge. The hilt of the sword features a sickly crossguard, the legs of the spider curling upward toward the blade. When Alyx wraps his fingers around the silk-covered hilt, the legs of the spider constrict with the crepitant sound of old bones to secure the weapon to his fist.

Name: Aegis of the Usurper Description: A legendary shield harvested by Alyxandeyr, the Gloomking, from a gloomweave spider. The shield is a preserved gloomweave spider carapace. The fangs of the spider thrust forward past the wearer's fist, and the spinneret extends to protect Alyxandeyr past his left elbow. When held at rest, the point of the shield rises almost to Alyx' shoulder. The eyes of the spider shine softly, watching his enemies, and the fangs glisten with venom.

Rota nodded as his zombie fell at his feet. He listened as they crossed the threshold into the next room and he noticed two undead wielding swords. While he would love to take them on fairly, he would rather do everything in his power to make them as little of a threat as possible. He was half tempted to ram his blade down the throat of the screaming zombie, but Alyx seemed to have that handled. He instead focused his attention on the bepimpled one. It seemed really twitchy for some reason and he wanted to know why. He charged Red into his sword once again and swung so hard the afterimage was basically part of the blade itself, doing its best to echo its source as much as possible. "I will admit, the guilt trip was beneath me. Still, lying is also beneath you. I cannot better myself or you if I don't know that I am being bested. I am actually really glad you found something that truly speaks to your style that betters you more than what I made. When we get out of here, I'll do my best to make them even greater."

Alyx destroyed the screamer, his blade carving a cross in its chest, slashing through its diaphragm and ending its wretched howling. Rota's attack cleaved through the glowing zombie, and the echoing sound of screams was replaced with the reverberating shockwave of an explosion. Light filled the cave and staggered all of the zombies, their health bars declining by varying degrees. Three left. Alyx would deal with the one that seemed to be the weakest, and leave Rota to take care of the attention of the stronger mobs. At the very least, it was preferable for Alyx to take care of the sparking zombie; you really shouldn't stick metal into electric sockets.

So the ones with pustules explode in such a way that only their kind get hurt...NIFTY! Rota tucked that little nugget of wisdom in the back of his mind for later as he turned his attention to the sumbitch that hit him. He was done taking hits without having them fear getting hit back. He wheeled around, his blade still engulfed in light and showed the sworded one the same kindness he had shown the Backne zombie. These road blocks were getting way too strong to not be going all out anymore so he had to start spending all that energy he had been saving up.

Alyx had successfully plunged his blade through the face of the charged zombie, its electrical discharge ineffectually dancing around the non-metal blade. As Alyx ripped Gloomfang out of the creature, a massive electrical wave exploded outward, wrapping itself around the zombies in the room, crackling around the unliving and the redead alike. The remaining revenant seized up, twitching as the current locked up its muscles. It was left utterly defenseless as Rota and Alyx were free to move about the cavern. Alyx allowed Rota to deal with it. He reached into his inventory and pulled out a potion, downing it and watching the show.
