Vehrim cringed slightly when the arrow struck him, turned ninety degrees, and opened his palm towards Edwyn, who was promptly encased in a dark aura similar to Vehrim's own -  except this one was opaque. Inside it, Edwyn could not see or hear a single thing.

Mahlar used the opportunity to attempt a strike at Vehrim, but the fiend did something the resplendent knight could never have expected; he caught the large sword... With his hand. Paralysed by the surprise, Mahlar did nothing, and Vehrim took the opportunity to wrest the blade out of his hand and force him onto one knee by kicking him in the leg.

"When he is fully awake, Marolath will be incredibly powerful," Vehrim spoke. "But it still needs a special component. Its heart, if you will. The body of an inhuman, of a being of immense, otherwordly power. Your body."

As Vehrim raised his blade, preparing to strike Mahlar down, Signus, who realised how much was at stake here, bolted into action, dashing towards the two knights and pushing Mahlar aside. While Mahlar scrambled towards his blade, Vehrim roared in anger and brought down his blade on the Imperial. Signus attempted a parry, but Vehrim's sword broke straight through the steel blade.

With a gasp, Signus felt the shimmering blade sink deep into his chest.
