"I'm sorry. But I'm with him. There's no reason for me to fight. You can take out nations on your own, why am I even here?" he asked. Then shrugged. He turned around to try following Epsilon if allowed.

[acommonhero]

"...I don' want to be a king," he growls. "But... how do you know my past...?"

He's not trying to leave anymore.

[The Shadow of Death]

"i know everything... i am everything."

i turn to Azoth, "you do not belong here, correct? after this is over i can give you a whole world to shape how you want... i can give you anything but my blades... although i could make you some... or make you sentient weapon listen to you..."

[kirf forest, outside of kirf fort, Rackasul and nameless victim]

A silent hunter stalked the shadows. He watched as his target wandered aimlessly, clearly lost, around the forest, his forest. To be honest Rackasul had never been to this part of the Kirf Forest, he always stayed close to the towns where he could pick off peasants who came wandering into the forest. Today, however, was different. This man had shown some serious woodsman-ship, it was a shame he would have to die. Rackasul had made himself known to the man from the start. Boring hunts are no fun after all.

Rackasul could almost taste the blood in the air. He was so close to the kill that his iris-less black eyes were in a frenzy. If you looked closely into his eyes you could see the final moments of every single person he had killed. A mere gaze into his eyes was enough to drive a normal man insane.

His muscular humanoid frame began to shift. What little light found its way through the trees to provide limited illumination to this dark forest shone right through him. All of a sudden his arm shot out, or at least what had been an arm moments ago. Now it was a taut rope with a midnight black barb on the end of it.

It pierced the man's calf and his cry of pain echoed though the forest. The cable zipped back towards the hunter, bringing the helpless man with it. Leaping up into the nearest tree his arm forgoing its previous shape he looked down at his victim. The man focused all of his energy into a vain attempt to crawl away.

Smiling with mirth and deciding he could wait no longer, Rackasul began to shift again and his true form was revealed. The branch he was crouched on snapped and he gracefully fell to the ground. By the time he hit the ground the shift was complete.

Coiled under him was the massive tail of a fearsome black serpent. Easily two men in diameter it was coated with matte black scales that offered incredible protection. At his waist, however, things began to change. Gone were the scales and in their place a thick hide stretched taut over rippling muscles. Covered in black fur that glistened as the meager sunlight hit him. Atop a thick neck rested the head of a bull. From his head sprouted alabaster horns that curled downwards towards his nose.

Grabbing the man with both his hands he quickly put him out of his misery. At last he felt at peace. The frenzy was gone. The urge was sated, at least for now.

[The Shadow of Death]

[Kirf forest]
a large white flame floated infront of Rackasul, creating erratic movements. it then hit a tree, which exploded, while another tree lifted itself and walked to Rackasul, reaching down with its branches to attack.

[Kain]

[Kirf Forest, outside of Kirf Fort, Rackasul]

Rackasul watched as a huge tongue of searing flame appeared in front of him, hardly fazed he feigned a yawn. It wasnt until a nearby tree uprooted itself and began to creep towards him that he took notice.

The trees in this forest were huge, his attacker was no exception. easily 35 feet tall it's branches became spears as they lunged towards him. Dodging the nearest one he grabbed it and snapped it off. Discarding it to the side he continued to dodge the spears.

He knew that given the size of his current form he couldn't dodge them forever. His point was proven as a single branch snuck in and thrust towards his shoulder. He saw it coming but was helpless to dodge it or deflect it. As the branch penetrated his shoulder he shfited around it. The branch passed cleanly though thin air. Turning the edges of the hole in himself to steel he closed the hole rapidly, catched the branch in a vice. Twisting his body he snapped the branch off.

Suddenly he had an idea. His form began to shift again and his massive frame was suddenly not there, in its place were millions of tiny insects, termites. Rackasul raced towards his foe, his body an army of termites. As he reached the roots he began to eat. The millions of termites devoured the tree in seconds. He could hear a silent scream cut the air in two as the tree died.

This has been fun, but I need to get out of these woods He thought to himself. He reverted to his human form and began to make his way towards the fort.

[The Shadow of Death]

(nice.)

[Kirf fort]
Nwura and i looked to the gate as the treefolk screamed. a blue light invaded the room, bouncing around and engulfing the other two occupants of the room, disappearing.

i turn to Nwura, "he caught up..."
i look out the doorway, "should we investigate?"
she closed her eyes, "no. the tree killer is coming this way."

[Kain]

(Thanks ;D)

[Kirf Forest, right outside Kirf Fort, Rackasul]

In his human form he was only 6'1. He covered distance much slower than when in his beast form, for slithering along was much quicker, but he didn't want to alarm any potential hosts right away. There's no point in frightening them right away he thought to himself If things turn ugly I'll atleast have suprise on my side.

One stride at a time he made his way to the monolithic gate that guarded the fort. Huge oak timbers bound together by dull bands of thick iron with not a spot of rust to be found. There was no ring for knocking, so he transformed his fist into a huge rubber mallet. Slamming it into the gate three times he reverted his hand to normal and waited to be recieved.

[The Shadow of Death]

[Kirf fort]

"hes here..."

the gate disentigrates, leaving no trace as Nwura and I pop up on the other side.

[Kain]

[Kirf Fort]

Slightly taken aback at the disappearing of the gate Rackasul quickly recomposed himself. He saw the two beings in front of him and knew they were immensely powerful. He could feel an ethereal aura about them, but refused to let them startle him. Calmly he spoke in a rich deep voice more becoming of his beast form than his human form.

"This fort of yours is quite impressive. I seek shelter here for the night and then I will be on my way."
