Rhiyou takes close notice to how Danyael's attack did little effect to the drop pods. It was quite a shock to see how the drop pods could withstand an assault from a full fledged nephilim lord. Or perhaps it was because Danyael's abilities had not matured enough yet. Either way, the result was obvious...there was no result.

"Oh gods... is that what i think it is?"

Rhiyous suspition was right. A hive tyrant emerged from one of the drop pods, well guarded by a small group of approximately ten genestealers. But that was not all.Before rhiyou could reply in assault, he, himself was assaulted as he doubles over in pain. His dark blue and white hair chordes over his face as he breathes deeply in and out with large heaves, trying desperately to maintain his consensus. Soon enough, he found the source behind his blow. His legions were being devoured! By Red Terrors no less!

His secret was out now. A dark knight was one with his legions. A sacrifice is always needed to summon them. Moreso the sacrifice of stray souls. But for one of Rhiyou's calibur, he sacrificed small portions of his essence. And due to such a sacrifice, he is given more control over his legions. But this was also a flaw. If the legions were ever injured, so too would be be as well.

"Stop!"

As he feels his legions being digested, he vomits up a large gob of blood, spilling it into a gap in the sand. But he was not yet defeated.

"you think it's that easy?!"

Due to his link between he and his legions, he also had as much of an advantage than a weakness. A bright blue light began to burn around him, forcing out deep moans and bellows of what would be his inner beast. His summoned battalion of legions were being devoured. But there was a blink of hope in this aspect. The Crow legions had their claws and lightning attacks. The Bomb legions had their self distruct kamikaze. And the shield legions had their own, single respective attack to stun an opponent severely.

He then began to float only a few inches above the ground. his legs began to glow with the same vibrant flames that were around the legs of his legions. Outstretching his arms and clenching his fists, he pulses his aura even further, at the risk of his own health. Danyael notices this and immediately recieves a telepathic message coming from somewhere. It felt like Rhiyou's voice. But sounded different. The voice was infact the unified voices of the now-being-devoured legions.

Nephilim Lord. We beseech your mercy. Aid our master and set us free.

Not needing to say anything, Danyael closed his eyes and stopped his raining assault on the battleground. Soon, landing behind Rhiyou, he secures his arms around the ancient as Rhiyou falls back by loss of concioussness. Even an ancient had their respective weaknesses. But before he lost concioussness completely, his aura left him and entered the mouths of the Red Terrors.

Soon the legions, now almost completely devoured, meld with the aura. A significant rush of adrenaline flows through the legions. First: the crow legions begin to violently claw aty the insides of the red terrors in the attempt to tear and rend the insides of the beasts. Next: The Shield legions put their tendrils together and a bright white light forms at their centers. Suddenly, single speaks of light burst around the insides of the creatures in the attempt to stun the beasts. And finally: the bomb legions begin to glow a bright crimson red. The cracks and burned armor of their shells are soon filtered by the growing fire that builds up within them. And then, with a bright flash, they simultaneously self-destruct, in the attempt to blow apart the Red Terrors from inside out.

Rhiyou, no longer conciouss, remains limp in Danyael's arms. Not having much choice, Danyael kept his supreme, but premature powers to a mid, under controlled level. A swirling barrier of wind and fire formed around him and rhiyou. Since the two of them were deep in the fray of the battle, they were far from their companions.

Stranded.

Alone.

But not defenseless.

As the barrier spun faster, so too did the heat in which it gyrated. Due to Danyael's spiritual and genetical link with the planets, he used the elements to build this barrier until the companions arrived. He could not move Rhiyou. Not yet. But this ability alone took a toll on his body and he slowly began to lose concioussness as well.
