Pestilence (RP topic)

When the blade was removed a glorious crimson spray of sanguine beauty erupted from the punctured throat, the blade having passed through the jugular. blood painted Hydronicus as he stood their, while Godrick slowly advanced each shaking step causing blood to leak from every crack, joint and hole in the armour, he raised his broken blade to strike…and froze.

Raphael and Hydronicus stared at Godrick, not moving.

the broken zwiehander clattered to the floor

Hydronicus suddenly stepped back, spooked by the sudden noise.

another noise rang out, a gruesome tearing, as if shell was slowly sloughing off flesh.

then a greave clattered off exposing raw flesh underneath

Raphael winced when he saw the exposed flesh.

more plates of metal fell off a sort of rapid decay ensued

“I’m sorry, Godrick. But you forced our hand.” Raphael said as he watched.

Once the breastplate clattered off the inner spikes could be seen, ferrofluid needles that began to destabilise and melt revealing a small metal plate

Hydronicus slowly approached, trying to get a better look at the mysterious plate.

13

That was all there was on it

Hydronicus didn’t understand the number. But Raphael certainly did.
“It can’t be…” he murmered.

The body finally fell as rapid putrefaction set in liquefying the corpse into a foul black goop.

“Rest in peace, Godrick.” Hydronicus murmured softly as he watched the puddle melt. Raphael bent down and picked up the numbered plate from the puddle, tucking it away into his robes.

Æhnyir’s unconscious body would be suddenly dragged away, without anyone noticing.

“What have you two found?” Raphael asked Arkan and Rohan.

Arkan stops drawing the circle and looks up. “He’s dead?”

“Well he’s a puddle of black goo, so if that doesn’t answer your question clearly enough then I don’t know what does.” Said Hydronicis.

“I’ve seen sentience from similar structures. It isn’t out of the realm of possibility.” Arkan answers.

Hydronicus peared down at the puddle of goop that had once been Godrick.
“If you’re uncertain of his death, then is there an efficient way to dispose of what remains?”

OOC: really don’t know hot to reply to this, but hey you can always try

IC: Æhnyir’s body would be dragged away, most likely leaving some sort of mark/trail on the ground, seeing as his armor was plate and was heavy, most likely leaving some scratches in the dirt or stone road.

Arkan nodded and started making a circle around the goop. Once it was finished, and Arkan conjured magic into the circle, it opened into a portal to a reddish landscape, into which the goop would fall, before the portal would close, leaving the circle until Arkan began to smear it away.
