19th October 2021 - FINISH HI.. Oh No
Xan aims for Priam, who is peering over the top of the towering column. She knocks him right in the chin and he falls. As she takes him down her focus moves to Egan of Estoria, and she slides quickly around the side of the column, just out of view. Helikaon is looking a little worse for wear, but is still on his feet. Her team are shouting occasionally about Triggernomamy, a type of fighting Xan is not familiar with. She makes a mental note to ask them about it later.
The dragon roars again and an icy breath rips through the arena. Theo and the friendly Pholon are hit and fall to the ground, but Hipofilius (as a bear) seems unfazed. She quickly fires off a few shots at Egan, hurting him a fair bit, but sees that there may be more help needed with the challengers surrounding Braz - the Aresian Superfan and Pancras of Praxia.
She rushes towards them but before she reaches her friend another screech comes from the skies and blasts ice across a path, where Xan stands. She jumps back and barely avoids it but the Aresian superfan is wiped out. As she dives back to the column and takes a chance to climb the marble. She sees Icarus swooping around the arena. She climbs, but is thwarted by Bullbug who shoves her off onto the ground. Before she can get to her feet, another strike from the dragon slices through her and knocks her unconscious.
Everything is dark as if she was sleeping.
Xan dreams she is soaring over the seas, on a large ship, with a dragon at its helm. The wind whips her hair backwards in a powerful blast. The sea rushes over her cheeks and lushes them a rosy pink. She looks to the side and sees her mother swimming in the water next to her boat at lightning speed. At the left Acastus flies on Icarus high in the air, the rulers of sea and air.
