Sylas didn't move, staring at the collapsed blue giant as he foamed at the mouth.
He thought the actions of the youth just now were particularly stupid, but maybe that was just what arrogance got you. But it also told Sylas something else.
He had gotten far too used to fighting against existences with superior and powerful Wills. It had been a very long time since he had faced anything else. Or, even just someone with average Will.
Whether it was the Sanctum or the Weaver Guild, it was chock full of existences that built their entire foundations on Will. The Seeing Eye Guild, however... was much different. They didn't do things like that.
Their Wills might still be powerful, but it was simply an outward showing of Strength.
This child giant... what was his Will level? Was it even at Enlightened?
Yet, he made the foolish decision of trying to swallow up Sylas' Glassvolt. It was no wonder he ended up like that.
Would a Cryst Emperor go down that easily? Definitely not. If their Intelligence was bound to their Will, they would certainly make sure that their Will was as powerful as possible.
But it seemed that everyone else...
Sylas' eyes flashed. Indeed... his Glassvolt Aether was already heavily tied to Will, wasn't it? It wasn't specifically tied to his own Will, but connected with it through proxy. There were some other relations.
Maybe... there was more to investigate in his Glassvolt Aether. There just might be...
Sylas slowly stood to his feet. Since this had happened, it was only a matter of time.
Aether rushed around him, and a violent turbulence of power descended. In one moment, there was no one at all before him, and in the next, a shadow had phased into being, one that loomed almost ten meters in height.
He kneeled by the side of the youth and pressed a palm practically the size of the child's entire body on the latter's chest. In an instant, the Glassvolt that was chewing him up from the inside was ripped out and crushed.
The Royal Blue Troll newcomer looked over to Sylas with a glare that chilled the air. Frost grew along Sylas' brows, his lips turning blue, but the cadence of his breath remaining much the same even as it began to mist in the air.
Shu. Shu. Shu.
The second newcomer was a woman... but she had the digitigrade feet of a white fox and the tail of a peacock of gold, silver, ruby, and accents of black.
If not for her feet and this tail, not to mention the complex feathers that seemed to interlock with her more "normal" hair, one wouldn't have been able to distinguish her from a beautiful human woman at all.
A third appeared, and they were likewise a Royal Blue Troll. Then came a fourth, who seemed to be of the same Race as the woman, but the shades of white and black were completely reversed.
While the woman's fur was all white and her peacock feathers were mostly white with accents of gold, black, and ruby, the man was the exact opposite. He had fur that was all black, his peacock feathers being mostly black with accents of gold, white, and ruby.
