Blood slowly dripped from between his clenched fingers and collected at the tips before falling to the ground far below. The gentle hue of blue light glinted off the droplets from the rune etched circle that slowly flickered around his feet. Sweat join with blood from his brow, running down his face and obscuring his vision. He raised a hand, brushing it violently across his face as he took another shuddering breathe from between his clenched teeth.
"...why...?"
His other hand tightened around the long staff he held in it before his arm began to shake slightly.
"...what did you ever do to deserve this...?"
He looked up slowly. Above him, encased in a vibrant glow, was a young fox. Her fur seemed to shine with a white tint that made it look almost angelic in nature. The black spider like cloud that surrounded her betrayed this image, the clouds tendrils reaching out in all directions...grasping, snaring, snatching at the air. Her eyes seemed almost lifeless, half closed and unfocussed.
Slowly her hand rose from her side and pointed towards him. A darkness fell around him and he could feel a chill in the air. No, this wasn't the end. He couldn't let it end this way, not when he had come so close. He would finish what he had started and he would do it at the cost of his life if it was to be.
"...I will set you free...this was my failure...today it ends..."
He rose the staff in his hands and pointed it towards the young fox. The blue hue around him seemed to intensify and the darkened chill seemed to fade but for a moment.
"...Septum Oriana, soma thyia malsei..."
The glow burst with colour. It was done, the final seal was now released. However this ended he would not walk away unscathed. Whether he had the strength left or not was all that mattered to him...
"...Lavender..."
