A tide of war echoed through the fallen arm, the town that was once here in perhaps more ruin than before as two forces fought in endless battle. A tall man of six foot seven with a strong built body and a thick beard stood against the tide. His body was extremely pale like the scout said, almost ghostlike in it's color, this was contrasted by red markings along his body. He stood strong with a suitable axe in hands and blades attached with chains on standby. Although he looked mostly fine outside a few small scratches, his breathing was getting a bit more heavy. He has survived many trials and monsters but the flow of them was seeing no end. On top of that the air was thick and hard to stave off. It's worrying how much longer he'd last in this climate but right now he had no choice. If only he had a way to draw out the leader.

The mechanical enemies came at him once more, purple energy and electricity flowing through the beings. They were all unrecogonizable to him, all creatures of various sizes and shapes with a theme of man-made enhancements. All he could do right now is hold them off, weakening the horde's numbers will keep them at bay. It probably would not be much longer until they send out the big guns.

(Fight Mechanic: The Starvia Cyborg army. A mass of cybernetically enhanced beings from all over the world. They seem intended to be cheap enhancements, proving more menacing in a large group. Their power will decrease as their forces do and their health. AoE's against them will clear a wider amount of foes. Close AoE's will do 2x damage while AoEs with massive range will do 3x the damage)

With a deep breath, the strong giant prepared himself. This was going to be a close fight but he has endured worth. As long as there was a chance Atreus was out here, he can not be stopped. He must not be stopped by any means.

Nearby Yumiko had entered the area as she began to look around. She soon heard fighting from afar and realised that was where the mission was going to take place. "Huh?" Yumiko approached the area and saw what was going on. It was the supposed ghost, she had managed to find him before the rest of the team could, but he had already begun to fight a cyborg army.

"Huh, he can't really be fighting that army, is he?" Yumiko thought before she shook her head.

"Benny and Athena haven't arrived yet, but I can't leave him here and let him fight like this. I need to help him." Yumiko decided as she quickly joined the man in the fighting. She joined the fight by shooting a maziodyne towards the enemy.

After she fired the blast she turned back towards the man and nodded. "I'm here to help you." She explained before firing two more shots towards the army.

Stomp, stomp, stomp, Athena was currently making her way to the Locale of battle, riding atop the back of her Astrological Familiar, Leo, Lunging from jump to jump to make way to the Fallen arm, as Athena was currently in deep thought...Someone with a deep connection to her? Athena didnt necessarily know any ashen men-- Infact, that sounds like a DEMON! Regardless, Athena was making her way up the Arm, until she saw a Man, white and ashy skin on his body witlh two red streaks on his body, No doubt being the entity in question.



"Well, there he is Goddess..." Athena said, tapping her Chin. She had to make a good impression on him..."Alright, Lets get started! You!" Athena yelled at Kratos, Standing a few feet away from Yumiko, having not seen her just yet. "Dont worry! Athena has come to grant Miracle Power~! Its time to Armor Up!" Athena would say, Raising her blade up to the sky, suddenly forming on her body...


OvlDYbBMp_1d20 (Holy Armor!)

A Bright Set of white romaness Armor, making Athena smile. "Wow, Seems i get this one alot~ Alright, Here i COME!" She yelled, Before pointing a blade forward. "Goddess, Grant me the roar of power! Prideful Leo!" Athena called out, as the Lion let out a loud roar, Breathing a deep breath, launching a giant fireball at the cyborg army!

p_1d20+1=21 (CRITICAL Pride Leo! 42% Damage, 100% Burn chance, 10% Recoil to Athena, 3 turn cooldown.)


Athena smiled as Pride Leo vanished into stars, as she began to quickly run down to join Kratos, readying her morning star as she landed beside Kratos. "Athena has come to save the day~ Im surpri--...Wait, is that Yumiko?? Heeeyyy, Yumiko~!!!" Athena would wave to Yumiko, having just realized she was casting spells over there.

Feral was the name of the game here, and that instinct was going to prove vital in this rescue. Stomping around on all fours was the beastkin himself, a lion aiming for prey, and another ally to gain. Now, Benny was far from the perceptive type half the time, but even he can tell a distinction among the ranks of the cyborg army of Starvia. Yep, there he was, the ghost of a man with red markings. "Tere's ta guy," Benny said, nodding as his powerful limbs pushed off the surrounding debris. It was just a few enemies, nothing to worry about. All that was going on was the visual of a bigger army. And bigger. Larger even still.

"Oh ... ooooh geez."

Much as the man wanted to dive headfirst into the fray, there came a time when the gears turning in his head creaked at just the right spot. He was not back home where he was even stronger, a reality the lion admitted at this point, and tossing around monsters by his lonesome was not going to score brownie points. Or at least, that was a phrase he heard around the Life Sphere. Other worlds are weird.

It was the crackle of a mage's lightning and the blazing soul of a warrior garnering the feline's attention. Oh, right, there were two more allies who aimed to come to the pale man's aid! Screeching to a halt, Benny pushed himself onto two legs once again, reaching deep into his vocals to cry out to the crowd, "AHAHA! So yous girls got ta him first! Don't worry, ta Monster of Sophos gonna beat down these jerks and save tat guy too. Good meetin' ya pale guy." The beastkin's cheeks reached far to the sides, displaying his bestial teeth which held his infamous grin.

Growling at the Starvia cyborgs, the man twisted to the right, arms rearing back, "Gonna regret bein' around!". Spiraling forward, Benny moved akin to a twist with outstretched arms through the crowd of machinations, "Spartan Lariat!"

R3IKm|pSp_1d20+4 (Spartan Lariat, Close AoE 32% Damage due to 16% Base, 40% STUN Chance)

Magic surged throughout the lion's body, keeping his stance wide and focus clear, ready to maul his foes into the ground. Clenching his fists, the magical energy charged up, and he unleashed his wild power with a roar, "I'll do more tan grind ya ta dust!"

p_1d20+3 (Feral Brutality, -1 accuracy penalty taken for 22% Damage)

"More where tat came from," Benny said, a snarl escaping his maw as he repeated his assault.

"I'm afraid this does not look good, brother. No clear escape route or safe place and I am unsure even you could handle this many now."

"I am aware, head. You don't have any more helpful advice?" Kratos prepared his axe as an infected armored soldier ran at him... Only for him to be zapped by lightning. A witch or God? Someone profecient in magical craft? He looked over to the voice. He knows better than to discredit a woman's skills, especially after the Valkyries and they needed the help right now.
"If you believe your power can be of use, then I will not be the one to stop you," he stated as he looked back. It seemed to wane the numbers a bit as well. Alright now it was... Did someone just call out to him?!

"Athena?! What are you-?!" Kratos spun around to see the voice only to cut short. "... What is with your new form?" he stated in confusion. This Athena seemed different than the last time they met. Over that her style was similar yet... not at all. The gods have changed form in front of him before but this was a bit confusing. Speaking of changing in front of his eyes, she changed attire too. Although he noticed one thing she said. "You know this girl and who is this Goddess? Are they the reason you have came here?" the god narrowed his vision. A touch suspicious. "... Hm..."

Before he could get too far into that interrogation another person arrived. How did they find his location? Did Athena guide them here? More importantly, this one was different from the others. Instead of god or man he was a lion figure. Not unlike a Minotaur... But nowhere near the size and not a bull either. "Spartan Lariat?" Did this lion man arrive from Sparta to possess such a named technique. "... Mimir, you have been quiet for a long moment. Care to share what is in that head of yours? Have you heard of a Monster of Sophos?" Kratos stated... Not using the name of anyone here and looking to his hip where... a disembodied head hung, observing the others, may of been difficult to see from a distance.

"I certainly have not. This does not appear to be anywhere in the nine circles either. Something is not quite right.. Could it be possible?"

"Speak."

"Well brother, it would appear that storm has blown us to another world entirely. We are not in Greece, we are not in the Circles, we may not be in any realms back home. It's the only way I can wrap my head around it. My knowledge has so many holes in it as well since we arrived. Athena may be the biggest clue since... you know."

"... Indeed," Kratos looked to Athena for a moment before rushing back into the horde throwing his axe forward, embedding it into the head of one of the enemies, with an open hand, the axe pulled itself out and returned back to his hand at which runes started appearing on the handle in bright blue glow. "Ivaldi's Anvil!" he declared with a small hop and bringing down the axe, causing an explosion of ice to tear away and freeze some of the army. One fool decided to run through to which they were met with a blade attached to a chain, slashing into them and causing them to fall. "Fortunately for their size, this army is full of weaklings," Kratos commented.

The army was tired of standing back, rushing on the group of warriors and surrounding them to beat them down with their numbers. Fortunately there was not as many now but they still attacked with all kinds of weapons. Kratos decided to activated the shield on his arm, it spreading out into a circle and blocking the attacks and parrying them as best as he could, keeping his guard up for now. Guardian Shielded.

As Yumiko continued to fight and help the man, she briefly stopped when she heard someone call out to her. A familiar person that she had once fought back at the Sunshine Stadium. She briefly turned to see that Athena was in the mission, along with a tiger person who was here to help the group fight off the horde.

"Athena!?" It's been awhile since the duel she had with her. Still though, it's nice that she's going to be with someone familiar in this mission and with more people here, the more easier and quicker that fighting this horde will be. Yumiko looked down at the few robots that she had already killed with her powers.

However the man appears to have known Athena, but he appears to find her appearance weird. "I guess he's in a world similar to mines... There's something weird about him... He seems to be similar to Athena but not quite..." Yumiko thought as she looked over the man, who appears to be talking to someone in his head.

Regardless, they should focus more on the battle.

"I suggest we hold off the questioning until this battle is over. This horde is surrounding us." Yumiko pointed out, as she prepared for the night set of enemies that were trying to hurt her and her mission partners.

A few of them tried to punch her, which she withstood thanks to her bubble shield. As she had briefly slipped as she tried to dodge, although Yumiko would make up for her little blunder by firing off attacks soon after.

"That was a bad start, hopefully I can dodge again soon after." She thought as she began firing off her attacks.
