RP- The Shroud descends

Lark heard the calling, it was calling for him. He hopped on Grimclaw and flew off, he was drawn to a mysterious dark cave, he was sure it was a trap, but he went in anyway. He slowly advanced until a giant rodent threw itself at him from the darkness, he had a brief struggle but he managed to slit its throat. He then came across two cages holding a poor man and an orphan, it said, "The test of Justice" he realised that he could only save one from a spiky death below, he realised that he had to save both. He stepped towards the orphan which caused the poor man to fall, releasing the child, Lark then pushed the poor man to safety but Lark himself fell to the spikes below. He quickly charged dark energy to propel himself up, he let the two go and continued on his way.

 

Raven sits in a tree. Just waiting and waiting.

 

Lark continued along till he reached a cliff edge, "The test of Patience" it said. Lark slowly edged along but he heard a clacking noise, it was joined by more rattling and clacking noises. He turned around slowly to see 20 pairs of red eyes glaring at him, the cave scorpions flew straight at him. He deflected them but they kept coming, he had to maintain his balance, he staggered and fell but pulled himself up. He was bitten multiple times and took a stinger to the face, but he shrugged it off, he realised what he had to do. He let the scorpions come at him, he let them hit him, they slowly fell asleep and he knocked them off the edge. The final test was to come.

 

//Lark seems still a tad OP, 20 scorpions attack a multitude of times and he barely notices... :/

 

//I would say Lark has a high resistance to poison, considering he's dead. He just needs a weakness.

 

//Oh he did feel a crap load of it! X3

Lark continued to the final challenge, "The test of Will" it said. He walked around the desolate room, seeing nothing, he heard a creak and turned around punched into a wall. He looked up to see a shadowy armoured skeleton, it was Lord Skorge, the dark lord pulled out his sword and swung, crashing into Lark's ribs, cracking them.

Lark managed to dodge another swing, clutching his side, and jabbed at him with his dagger, but only to have his dagger swallowed and spat back out at him going straight through his arm, pinning him to the wall. Lord Skorge walked up and Lark pulled out the dagger but had to drop it to dodge an attack, he went to punch Skorge's armour but it swallowed his hand and smashed him into the ground making a crater. Skorge threw his shield at the roof and part of it collapsed falling towards Lark, but he rolled away.

Lark was battered and broken, Skorge walked up to execute him, Lark realised that Lord Skorge was him. The sword came down but stopped just before his neck, Lark slowly got up, dropping his bow, and advanced towards Skorge, who was forced to drop his weapons and step back. Lark picked up the sword with two hands and Lord Skorge's chest armour receded, Lark swung it straight in and Lord Skorge melted into liquid and absorbed into Lark.

Lark walked up to the podium, and there lay a golden skull shaped mask, he put it on and saw everything from a different perspective. He was wiser now, he understood life and death, he exited the caves and returned to Temor.

//Sorreh for da long post :3 feet he does have one major one, light magic. Ella is scareh 3:

 

*Sigh* It was getting late. Aspathe stood in the town centre, waiting for Lark. Perhaps I should wait until tomorrow? she thought, Maybe book a room at the inn. Changing stance, she felt her considerably lightened purse press into her. Or maybe not. She would have to make do with camping out. Trudging out to the forest that surrounded the town, she found a suitable area to rest in. The grass was free of stones and the thick bushes provided ample privacy, for sleeping that is. Aspathe stared up at the jeweled sky. It was beautiful. Feeling tranquil, she leaned against a fallen tree. A hand suddenly covered her mouth.

 

Lark returned to Temor, expecting Aspathe to have arrived, he heard a muffled cry, "Aspathe?" he questioned.

 

Light finishes his set of special armor. He made this armor out of strange ores he had found. Surprisingly when the ore becomes heated it becomes harder. But Light used all the strength and magic he had to make this armor. He could only do so much cause of the difficulty but he was able to make leggings,a chest piece thats attached with a hold right arm gaunt. Sadly the chest piece was basically cut in half because of the difficulty of the ore he couldnt make a whole plate. Light has a few bars of the strange ore he has named Obsidian. Enough for half a helm. Enough to cover his eyes and the back of his head. Light continues to make the armor and while he is melting the bars down he slowly weaves a chain cape that could go around his whole body. Light has decided to...Go straight to Gorth's castle.

 

Lark looked around for Aspathe but couldn't find her, "she must have just fallen over," he said, walking away.
//:o I think we should wait for everyone, I don't think you can take down Gorth, the shroud and other horrible creatures.

 

//Who said i'm taking them down?

 

//...........-_-

 

Light suits up and pets scorns head. "If i dont come back..Go find Lark he'll take care of you." Light says while smiling. Light runs off into the direction of Prospor his first destination. With a satchel, his armor, a sword thats been crafted by Him and a few nights supplys.

 

Raven, still in the treetops, just looking at the angelic sky.
Meanwhile, Dark Raven...

"Gah! Why can't I tap into this badge's true power!?" Dark Raven shouted. A voice echoed. "You have no soul. Your life is devoted to the dark. Only a person with a soul can use the power. You need the Essences of Dark. You don't need the badges anymore. "I'll easily collect these essences, but I better eliminate the boy, to make sure he never gets in the way again." Dark Raven said. He then teleports himself to the Dungeon of Despair and flies towards Temor.

 

Lark looked up to see a streak soaring through the sky, "that can't be good," he muttered, grabbing his bow. He took aim, with his golden mask he was more accurate, he felt the line draw tension, then he fired.
//Characters should probably notice that he's wearing a FLUPPIN' GOLDEN MASK XD

 

//Nothing surpises me about Lark anymore ;)
The third trial remained, but Ugos was uncertain about how to proceed. The cave mouth in front of him was unnerving; A long forgotten beast's maw served as the entrance.

 

//He may or may not die :o

 

Raven finally spots a yellow bright glow. It got brighter and brighter. It came right at him. It was Dark Raven, he kicked Raven off of the tree and onto the ground and prepares to charge up some magic to obliterate Raven.

 

Lark rushed over to the commotion, "you, Raven, need me to go Lord Skorge again?" Lord Skorge's armour started to swallow Lark up.

 

"Sure..." Raven replied.
