[A note, guys-- the portal is INSIDE the castle, as is the spreading icy death. It's only really relevant for Soren and Renault.]

(Tibarn, Melethia's post still makes sence....She's cold blooded and a fire dragon it wouldn't take much for her to know a slight temeperature drop and she's not that far from the castle)

"A-aaaahhhh..."
Rhys finally started to come around, his mind throbbing with the effort.
(What on earth... was THAT?)
"Rhys!"
Jin had been the first to notice.
"Nice of you to wake up! It's not like we're outnumbered five to one or anything..."
"THANKS," Rhys responded, finally running into action.
Two Mogalls came straight at him--both glared straight into his soul, throwing the nasty Evil Eye in his direction--but they failed to even faze him. FLASH, FLASH, and a pair of bloody eyes and a mess of tentacles fell to the ground.
Three more floated in to take the places of their fallen comrades. They all squinted, casting the deadly Evil Eye at the same time!
Compared to the dark presence he'd felt, earlier, however, this was nothing. Rhys merely focused inward, keeping the throbbing in his head to a minimum, and the magic simply dissipated around him. FLASH, one eye was punctured. FLASH, another one fell. STAB, and a third one blinked again and again in pain. Rhys had opted to throw his staff like a javelin for that one, just to get the point across that he was not any priest to be trifled with.
FLASH, and the third one stopped blinking.
"Cursed monsters," Rhys growled, angry now. "Go back to the depths from whence you came! Your kind aren't welcome here!"

Amelia paused in her onslaught of a Mogall as she heard Rhys speaking, sounding rather pissed, indeed. "Rhys...!" she shouted, giving a violent slash to the Mogall she faced to make it collapse to the ground in a heap. She glanced at the battlefield, then went over to him, keeping most of her weight on her right leg.
"Thank Goddess you woke up," she said in relief. "Are you feeling all right? You scared the hell out of us..." Amelia glanced at Melethia, seeing her with her wings out, then back at the priest. "Soren and Renault disappeared a little while ago."

"I didn't think a staff could be used that way Rhys." Melethia said as she got up. A Mogall flew at her, but was stopped when Melethia gave a firey punch to it causing it to combust. As she walked the snow melted around her, it noted how hot it was around her.

"What?" Rhys' anger faded. "Oh, that. Listen, I'll tell you about it later. Right now, would you mind staying close? The regular ones aren't any trouble, but the red ones..."
An Arch Mogall took notice of the troublesome priest and even now was floating over with two Mogalls in tow.
"I'm really sorry to have worried all of you. Oh, and before I forget--"
Since the Mogalls were still a little ways off, Rhys paused, picked up his fallen staff, and concentrated. The staff began glowing a bright green as he ran it up and down Amelia's left leg, closing wounds and easing the pain.

((Alright, I'm pissed now, I had a whole long post typed up and Gaia deleted it. So I'm just gonna put some random crap because I'm NOT retyping all that. DD< Sorry, Soren.))
Renault looked down at Soren for a moment with a shocked look on his face, then ran out of the room quickly while the sage was crawling out. He grabbed the Warp Staff from the room, then paused at the entrance to grab up a tome that had been sitting on the table - it looked like a Wind tome or something of the sort. Arriving back in the hallway, Renault moved back to Soren, who didn't seem to have gotten far, and used the Warp Staff to transport both of them.
They arrived out in the courtyard once again, Renault pausing long enough to hand the tome he'd picked up to Soren.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, at the portal, all the soldiers from the castle were piling through. After a couple minutes, the last one got through, and they spilled into the castle courtyard as "reinforcements".

Amelia nodded without another thought. She looked over at the Mogalls as she heard the faint sound of their path through the air, only audible because the air was so damn still. Things were getting eerie -- they were already creepy, mind you -- and Amelia felt uncomfortable about the entire situation.
The sensation of healing magic made Amelia gasp just a little, out of relief. She sank her weight down onto both legs, smiling as it felt perfectly fine. He wasn't a high-level Priest for nothing. "Thank you," she said gratefully, adjusting her grip on her lance, sticky by now from slashing through so many eyes. Amelia didn't know what exactly the fluid was -- not all of it was red -- and she was too afraid to wonder.

[[ Ah — not a problem, Renault. ]]
Soren tumbled clumsily onto the ground, taking a deep breath.
"All right, I was wrong! It's not very warm here at all!" he exclaimed, though his previous statement did hold a bit of truth. It was warmer out here than even inside the castle.
He glanced up to see a tome presented to him.

The Arch Mogall and its companions slowly floated closer to Rhys and Amelia, scanning the duo and the ground around them.
The Arch Mogall, having superior brain power, turned slowly to one Mogall, then the other.
Stay in formation. Remember the plan.
(Does anyone think that Arch Mogalls having telepathy is overdoing it, because I have the urge to do something with them if nobody minds.)

((Yeah, I tried to give you a better post but. . . D smile )
Renault nodded, placing the tome into the sage's hand. "There. I found that. So now you have a way to defend yourself." He smiled quietly down at the sage. "Thank me later. We have things to do right now." With a quick movement, he spun, moving towards the others; his hand went up, tome opened again, to blast one of the Mogalls out of the sky, creature crashing into the ground next to Amelia and Rhys. "Be careful!"

[[They're floating eyes. They have to have SOME way of communicating -- why not telepathy? XD And I personally don't mind.]]
Amelia shifted her position, her hand slipping on her lance. Goddammit I hate these things so much... hate... Amelia adjusted her grip again so the rope attached to the butt of her lance was underneath one palm. It helped to keep that hand in place, and then it wasn't as annoying. The way they just... floated there like sheep made her quiver, and not because of the cold.
Well, presumably intelligent sheep, if they could use some sort of dark magic to attack their enemies. Otherwise, what could they do? Blink them to death? Spread evil pinkeye?
