Calibration 1,
*Wave looked down at the still kneeling Dagon, his face contorted into that of rage, Almost impressed that Dagon was able to manipulate everyone around him to the point of almost ensuring his death should Wave infact murder Dagon*
" You really are a monster of the sea, Dagon... You have convinced everyone around you that you have changes, but you are really just a coward who quakes behind others to protect him... is that why you sold yourself to The Silver Prince? Yes, I have heard the stories. Too much lines up, Dagon... now stand and face your judgement!
* Dagon scoffed at Wave's notions, then got to his feet, completely unafraid of his childhood rival wearing power armor. Dagon retrieved his daiklaive from the sheathe at his hip*
" You know Wave... I should be angry with you... but I am not. I feel sorry for you. You can't see before you someone who just wants to do right by their family and all you want to do is try to dig up the ugly history that I have been trying to live down... Yes, I did work for The Silver Prince... I did wicked things in his name and hurt many people... not a day goes by when I don't see their faces and hear their screams. I know I can never make up for what I did, but still I have vowed to be the best person I can... I know things did not go well when we were kids... I am sorry... but this is not the time. The Empire needs us! There are monsters out there!"
* Wave smiled as his free hand began to glow a deep blue*
" There is a monster here too... I just feel sorry for that poor woman you seduced and the child you infected her with"
* Dagon's skin began glowing blue as his Anima banner blew out around him like a whirlpool. Dagon's expression hardened as he stared Wave down. He raised his Daiklaive to his side, allowing rings of black essence to coarse down his arm and to the tip of his weapon*
"Never speak of my family like that!"
* In a flash, Dagon was lifted off the ground by his swirling Anima. The black ring at the tip of Dagon's Daiklaive bounced back through Dagon's body and into the opposite hand, solidifying into a sword made from hardened water. as Dagon came down upon Wave, he rolled his hip, sending his whole body into a spin, which aided his weapons in cutting deep into the ancient set of power armor that Wave wore. Wave's own daiklaive ran against Dagon's, creating huge black sparks which flew back into his eyes*
(3L, 4L, 1L, 3L)
* If wave cold have opened his eyes aver being blinded by Dagon's sparks, he would have been in wide eyed amazement that he could penetrate this seemingly invincible suit of first age armor. Like a sack of potatoes, Wave fell to the ground with a heavy, metalic thud.
Wave's lips moved, but no sounds came out, one part from the shock to his system the wounds caused him, and the shock to his mind that losing so swiftly gave him*
*Dagon heaved a sigh as he sheathed his daiklaive and banished his sword back into his anima. Shaking slightly from residual anger and adrenaline, Dagon walked back to the wall of armor and began putting on a suit of power armor*
" You are wondering why you lost? It's the same reason you always lost back at The House of Bells. You rely too much on your inborn talents and whatever 'tools' you have on hand and never bother to push yourself. While everyone else worked on their skills, you thought your time was better spent learning charms to out power your classmates in competitions.. but you never expected Scions like me, or Ragara Tuffrin, or Mnemon Sukie. We had legacies to live up to and no home to go back to if we failed. We had to work on both our practical skills and our Essence. We couldn't just study minimally, then party in your off hours... but that is how you are, isn't it, Wave? You slack off, then blame everyone else when failure finally catches up with you. I think you need to take some responsibility for yourself, Wave, before you start alienating everyone around you."
