The ground began to shake as the earthquake spread from the impact point of Fearos's fist. Celty cursed and went down on her hands and knees to avoid toppling over completely, spreading out her weight as the piece of earth she was on cracked and crumbled beneath her. She had little time to worry about that, however, as meteors began to rain from the sky. She dodged one, barely, breathing hard from the small physical force she exerted. She still wasn't strong enough to be able to fight anything, let alone keep this up for an extended period of time. As she tried to think of a way to avoid the fire raining from the heavens, she noticed a large meteor heading straight for the fire mage that she's fought with earlier. "Look out!" She shouted this on instinct, but had already dove towards her, barely pushing her out of the way. The meteor missed her, but the fire coating it grazed her legs and burned her pretty badly. She rolled off of Gaynor and off to the side, the pain making it even harder to move. The earth was still shaking and meteors will still coming down, but at the very least she'd managed to help in her condition. She looked at Gaynor with passion in her eyes and pointed up at Fearos.
"I'm in no condition to fight that thing. I'll do my best to cover those that can still put up some fight, but that's all I can do for now! We have to get them to that crack!" She managed to stand once more, the pain in her legs close to unbearable, but she bit her lip and extended her hand to the woman. "Will you help me?!"

Kama shouted "SHADOW SLAYERS HIT THE CRACK IN IT'S HEAD! DESTROY THE ORB INSIDE! THIS MAY BE A WEAK POINT! ATTAAAAAAAAAAAACK" "Finally, a solid order!" Shouted Daryn, her sword in the ground, anchoring her as the earth shook. She knew she couldn't stay in one place for long, but walking was hard enough in over-sized boots when the ground wasn't shaking. She watched as other warriors also shook from impact, though some were moving forward to attack. She knew she had to do the same no matter how hard it was. "I'm going to defend the warriors that can get close enough to deliver the final blow!" Daryn shouted over the rumbles of the earth. "You guys focus on his weak spot, I'll take care of the fearen! Anyone else with doubts on their ability to hit the orb should do as I do!"

Enoch stumbled forward, trying to stay level on the shaky ground and continue moving forward towards the fallen Fearos. He dug the pointed end of his glaive into the dirt with each step, using it to balance himself amidst the tremors. He couldn't believe it worked out so well, and his spirits raised a bit more as he heard Kama shout,
A weak point!! They had to get working quickly on cracking through Fearos's skull, and although he couldn't be of much help at destroying the orb himself, he surely could speed their process along. He quickly debated between slowing the behemoth, or speeding up the efforts of the fighters. But for something that would ultimately have the same relative effect on the attackers, speeding them up would consume far less magic than attempting to slow such an enormous creature.
Enoch quickly put up a barrier around himself and Daryn as another meteor crashed to the earth right near them, holding his glaive up in front of him. He'd help her out on supporting the other fighters. As another earthquake rumbled beneath their feet, he quickly bent his knees in an attempt to balance himself and begin working his magic. With their location being as close as it was to Fearos, he could only desperately hope they could take him down before he got the chance to stand once again. He wasn't certain who was near enough to be affected by his time magic, but he started to cast a massive Haste spell to speed up all fighters in his vicinity. He shouted loudly, "Everyone on their way to attack Fearos, try to get close enough so that I can get you with the Haste spell!!"
He would do his best to help and protect them in any way he possibly could. They had to succeed.

A weakness!
Ooro's heart fluttered at the sign of hope. As long as we can just reach it in time! The sky had begin to tumble down before them, and if those hit the ground- they would be at a disadvantage with the knock-back.
Daryn! Of course! Ooro was not as skilled as the rest- but she could at least help hold off the remaining fearen. Her gaze turned to Altheron, "You should utilize that body while you can! That thing can open portals, yeah? You can help the others get to the crack!" She tightened her grip around his dormant body, "I'll keep this safe, don't worry," her voice assured him.
Truthfully, I'm scared out of my mind... but I haven't had this excitement in ages!
Her head nodded as she dashed toward Daryn's general direction, taking a spot on the line with the rest. Still clenching the hilt of the sword, she prepared to strike at the oncoming beasts.

Gaynor shot a few more fire bullets at the winged fearen before unexpectedly getting tackled. She assumed the ground shaking was most amount of damage the fearen could deal at this point, but never noticed the flaming rock heading in her direction. She grunted in shock as she hit the ground, soon realizing her life was close to being over. She took a few breaths, looking at both Celty and the rock that landed on the ground she stood just seconds ago.
She watched as the mother rose to her feet and extended her arm in invitation, regardless of the damage she dealt on her leg.
Gaynor felt annoyed in a way. Not because she was repulsed by being saved, but because the woman who she wanted to see carry on to raise her child so easily stepped in the way of danger.
Stepped in the way of doom just to save.....her? The slight annoyance was quickly replaced with confusion. Gaynor couldn't grasp why someone would want to save her. It was her own job to protect others, not to be protected in return!
Protect......
What a lousy thought.
The wave of emotions continued to flow through her, now arriving at sadness. She seemed to be caught up in a web of failure, she's claimed to protect many things before but has failed to do so each time.
She wanted to protect Celty, but she was in rough shape, the blood covering her body and stitches on her forehead showed this very clearly. She wanted to protect her children, but...........
No, it wasn't the time to dwell on these things.
Gaynor hesitantly took Celty's hand as she helped pull herself up from the ground. She remained quiet, seeming to process her emotions, but she nodded in agreement anyway.
She noted the intensity in the mother's eyes, along with everyone else in the guild, she desperately wanted to this fight to end. Gaynor pushed aside her thoughts and thought now only on the current objective.
She heard the time mage shout in the distance, beckoning the warriors to come near so they can quickly approach the beast. She looked in his direction, then back at Celty.
She had little strength left, so it wasn't practical for her to attempt to crack the skull of the large enemy-- but she was strong enough to defend her teammates from other weaker enemies as they approached.
"Let's go." Gaynor said in a strong tone, beginning her route to where the others were gathering.

The old man he had just seen riding a strange fearen had finally shouted an order, a worthwhile one at that. If the weak point was at the orb, then his entire plan was moot since that relied on finding a weak point. Although....
Osseus scaled a crumbling inn, avoiding meteors and the imminent death that they would bring, and hopped on top of bulk fearen after bulk fearen in order to conserve energy. Meteors kept crashing down, so it really broke his focus a lot of times. So much so that he had to keep one eye closed in order to lessen the brightness of the meteors. But there was one goal, make sure that fearen's orb was taken out.
But having one operation take out its eyes would still be a worthwhile venture in case the orb wasn't completely destroyed. After all, Osseus's strength in battle was only in surprises and speed, not physical strength. Stabbing daggers into an orb would be worthless after all.
Worthless.
That's all he was in this fight. This fight to prove how worthy one is of surviving.

Manasa marveled with disbelief as the Goliath fearen toppled over. The plan worked!
Manasa was so taken it by watching Fearos fall she hadn't even noticed Rylan before it happened. She blushed. Hugs were... different. As a child she never experienced them, it wasn't like vishkanyans to hug one and other out of friendship or affection, which was just as foreign a concept to them. Manasa initially tensed up. It wasn't unpleasant, in fact it was quite nice. She just has trouble knowing how to react in the situating.
"What?!" Manasa stepped back in disbelief, face still flushed. She looked down at Ryan's arm and leg with concern and then back up at is face, which was covered in blood. For all she knew it was his knowing how reckless Rylan was. "You're not in any shape to fight! Don't you think you already did enough? ...We can't lose another teammate."
Manasa covered the scar on her nose with the corner of her new cape and looked away. She could still fight just fine, but the thought of Rylan being in danger again, especially after just seeing what happened to his arm was enough to turn the proud woman into a coward.

Her gaze turned to Altheron, "You should utilize that body while you can! That thing can open portals, yeah? You can help the others get to the crack!" She tightened her grip around his dormant body, "I'll keep this safe, don't worry," her voice assured him. The hound's feet took a hesitant step toward the group in front of them, before lowering its head a bit. It saddened him that he could not also group with Daryn and the others, but Ooro was right. This body could be useful in a situation like this. He became tense when the earth began to shake, trying to root himself in the ground with his claws. He took a quick scan of the area. Many of the members were far from the giant behind him, and others were struggling to get close while also dodging... flaming rocks? From the sky? Altheron had no time to dwell on this. There were still fearen on the battlefield he had to run past, and the rocks would only shift his focus from making portals, so he had to be quick. Amongst the roar of struggling fearen, the rumbling of the ground beneath him, and the sound of his thoughts clamoring about in his mind, Altheron heard a low, clanking sound in the background...... The shaking ground was difficult to move on, but leaning on his mace for extra support allowed Alroth to advance at a walking pace. Falling rocks rebounded off the shield left and right, but it would take an absolutely massive meteor to stop the heavy armor. The metal man! His name escaped Altheron's mind for a moment. He wasn't exactly paying much attention earlier when he introduced himself. Surely, the metal man could do some damage to the crack the old man was screaming about earlier with his strange metal swingy-thing. Altheron immediately began running toward him, hoping that the new color the vessel had undertaken once he made contact with it would prevent the metal man from killing it. He couldn't lose this body right now; it was too useful. Before approaching the metal man- whatever his name was- Altheron focused as much as he possibly could on an area that would set his ally the closest to the colossal beast. Once again, the bright light shone again as a portal appeared right in front of Alroth- oh, THAT was his name, he thought, pleased with his efforts. The fearen cocked it's head to the side, as if telling the armor "Is this where you wish to go?". A similar portal appeared near a few yards away from Fearos's head.

"This is no time to worry about me! I'm fine, I promise. But I definitely WON'T be fine if Fearos has a chance to recover! I need to help the others as well, and I can't do that by just standing here!"
Rylan was a bit annoyed by Manasa's detest to him going back into battle, when he noticed her looking at his arm and leg. He realized that without completely understanding the situation regarding the ritual he underwent those years back, it looks a lot worse than he'd like to pretend it is. Rylan tried to smile to ease her uneasiness.
"My arm and leg are fine. We need to help the others so we DON'T lose another teammate."
That sentence shocked Rylan. He had been carried off the battlefield for so long he hadn't realized they'd lost anyone. A feeling of dread began to fill in Rylan's stomach at the thought of them already losing a teammate, when a meteor crashing into the side of the inn snapped him out of it. He looked back up toward the sky and noticed another meteor heading straight for them. Rylan opened another portal in front of him and one in front of Fearos' head and let the meteor pass through and be thrown right into the beast's cranium. Rylan winced from the pain as the ash began to erupt into cinders briefly as they spread through his arm and leg again, but tried to hide his pain from Manasa. He looked down toward his arm and leg.
Shit....I'm pulling it really close here...I know Mimisko is a fire mage and Enoch has time magic...I just need someone with an affinity to electric or...HEALING! Oddessa has healing magic! I'll have to ask those three for help after this....
"Come on! Like I said, we're sitting ducks out here! That meteor nearly hit us, so we need to move!!"

Alroth was more the cynical type.
Noticing the hound's efforts, he raised his mace and swung at the beast. It had stood there looking at him long enough that it could only be assumed the hound was going to pounce, and Alroth didn't have time for that. Unfortunately since he had been leaning so much on the mace, raising it up caused the armor to immediately lose balance in the earthquake, and the swing missed. The huge metal ball smashed into the ground beside Altheron's possessed hound, and the stumbling Alroth was a slave to the momentum of the swing, falling forward into the portal.
"Wh-!" the pixie exclaimed, now suddenly somewhere else. Alroth stood up again and turned to see that... oh. Towering above was the head of Fearos. Disoriented, Alroth decided to just go with it. Most of the nearby fearen had been wiped out by the titan's landing, so there was plenty of time for Alroth to regain his balance and prepare another move, all the while not realizing the acting effects of Enoch's spell. With a massive leap, the armored tree was flung a few yards into the air. Between his mace and shield he was able to catch one of the spikes jutting off the side of Fearo's visage. Without wasting another moment, Alroth threw himself even higher, getting in position right on top of the cracked part of the behemoth's head. The extra speed made it easy since it left less time for Fearos to move and throw off the coordination.
Alroth slammed his shield down into the monster's head, and then landed a quick smash to the top of the shield with his mace, hammering it like a nail. The spikes on the bottom of the tower shield anchored into the beast's rock-like flesh, providing Alroth stability so long as he held on. "HERE WE GO!" Alroth yelled, raising his mace high overhead. Unleashing the mightiest swing he could manage with one arm, the warrior sent his mace crushing into Fearos' weak point.

Manasa did not believe Rylan was fine at all, but he was right; staying where there were could only end badly.
"Alright. Just don't do... That... Again if you can help it." Manasa said motioning towards Rylans's glowing eyes and arm. "We should get going."
Manasa turned away from the inn and began to advance toward the behemoth fearen, holding the hilt of her sword ready to draw it if any fearen were to attack.

"Right."
Rylan began to move forward, slowly but surely, as his new leg was still taking some time to get used to, and the quaking ground wasn't making it any easier. Rylan heard a crack, from what he assumed was the ground, but when he looked down, he noticed the fluid he had used to keep his peg leg on had started to crack a bit.
Oh shit, why now..? No matter. So long as it makes it through the battle, I'll be fine.
Rylan continued forward, trying to tread more carefully, even though that wasn't much of an option. He noticed all the fearen dead and sprawled about as he ran towards Fearos. Had they really killed that many fearen? While he wasn't paying attention, a meteor rushed past his left arm, knocking him over.
Gah, this is really annoying. I'd use Archex's power to it's full extent but....
He looked down at his arm and leg again. It had consumed too much of his body. He damned Daryn for slicing his arm open and the sting fearen for spraying acid into his leg. If it weren't for them-
That thought was cut short as he noticed a meteor was about to hit him head on. Rylan held his arms out and made another portal as quickly as he could, reacting so quickly his arm actually burst into green flames, causing him to let out a scream of agony. The portal reopened near the inn, as it was the only place Rylan could think of in that moment of pure instinct, and the meteor tore through it.
Son of a bitch..
Rylan's arm hung there as he tried to move it, to no avail. That arm had gone limp. He couldn't bend his elbow anymore. All he could do was move his hand and hold it up with the joints in his shoulder. The skin around his elbow had gone completely grey and was already making its way towards his hand. After the battle, he would really have to talk to Mimisko, Enoch and Oddessa about the small favor he needed.
"Welp, no use stopping now. I have to finish this battle with what's left of my arm..as long as it doesn't reach my hand, I may be able to still save it..."

Suddenly, another winged fearen was able to fly towards Mimisko but she able to shoot fire at it, thus making it burn into a crisp. Mimisko looks up.
"Mama.... I hope that despite not being able to fight Fearos, you can still see me as a hero."
Mimisko jumped a bit and looked at orb inside. It seems pretty visible. Mimisko set up a blue fire arrow. She aims at the orb and shoots it up. After that, she has repeated the possess 5 times. There are then 6 arrows flying up, heading straight to the orb of Fearos.
Mimisko prays that it will be an effect this time.
"Please work"
((Welp, I'm trying my hardest in this RP. ;w;.))

((Allie didn't state that Osseus attacked the eyes yet, but I don't want to ignore Allie's post so to speed up the game we're going to assume that Osseus did.)) Kama ran over to Enoch and was sped up by the elf mage's spell. Kama replied "Thanks Enoch. Now it's time for us to bring this sucker down!" Kama ran to Fearos, but his running was quite slow. Even with the help of Enoch's Haste spell, Kama's leg injury caused him to fall behind the other guild members. Osseus quickly and stealthily slashed Fearos's eyes as soon as the head came down, and blinded it. Fearos should've moved it's head as soon as it was blinded, but it wasn't very smart. The meteor Rylan redirected to Fearos made the crack on the head even bigger. Kama's fire slashes damaged the head as well, but it was Alroth's mace that crushed the skull wide open and caused serious damage to the orb inside of Fearos's head. Mimisko's fire arrows delivered the final hit, but it wasn't enough. The Shadow Slayers failed to destroy the orb in time. Fearos started to get back up. As the huge body started rising again Kama shouted "Damn it all! I'm not gonna give up on this opportunity! Not after making it this far!" Kama ran up the giant monster's upper leg trying to stab into the stomach in order to climb up Fearos's body, but Kama was so badly injured that his weakened body gave in. He started to fall off but the old man managed to stab into the leg before falling all the way down. He could barely hang on, but was determined to climb up Fearos's body to reach the head once again to take Fearos down. Fearos was getting up very slowly, and the magic shield still wasn't regenerating. It became clear that attacking the orb in it's head successfully weakened it, but now attacking the head wasn't going to be easy. Fearos started charging an energy bomb as it got back up, causing the situation to become even more difficult. Their chance of winning this fight seemed to be quickly slipping away once again.
(([EDIT] Woops the shield was to allow Alroth to hang on to Fearos, not to attack lol. I missed that somehow. I edited the post to make it so that only the mace damaged Fearos.))
