Gabriel stared at the portal, the ghostly moan reaching his ears. It unnerved him. The warlock no longer held his calloused nature nor his blatant disregard for fear and death. Taking away one’s life experiences changed them drastically. “Er, I don't know If I truly want to follow, but I guess I must.” He hesitated before creeping closer to the portal. Many tingles in his body and the twitch of his muscles tried to warn him, but Gabriel did not listen per usual.
"Correct, you don't have a choice." Nyx laughs, pushing Gabriel through, following after him.
They appear right in the middle of London, outside of traffic.
"This is where our crusade of blood starts." he says, looking around.
Gabriel sighed. He was quite aware of his autonomy being taken away by the strange demon lord. He was still not too sure how he met the lord, but he didn't have much to question at the moment. Once pushed through the portal, his eyes were worn with annoyance. Looking around, once could recognize the middle of London with its high traffic and crowds of people. Curious. " Why are we starting here? There are other great places to start. The middle of London seems boring."
"Yes, it seems boring, but do you see al the horse drawn carriages? Those will be our starting point. Crash those, and the whole system breaks down into chaos. Especially if said horses don't immediately die from being knocked flat." Nyx snickers.
"Uh-huh." Gabriel rolled his eyes, waving his hand and producing a haladie. "And what about this is better than just attacking straight forward? It may cause a traffic jam, but not a bloodbath." He did not understand that demon lord's plans, nor his idea of a blood crusade. Gabriel moved closer to Nyx, his face twisting and scrunching up. "I hate the smell of this city. It is horrible." He reached one side of his haladie out towards a horse, slashing it along the shoulder. The animal groaned in pain, rearing up and running around the street ragged. "What will this butterfly effect do?" Gabriel was nearly clinging onto Nyx, smiling at the blood he’d drawn and the animal that had lost control.
"Pandemonium. It is the begginings of fear, of rage, of unadulterated and raw primal instinct. We unleash Pandemonium, we can control the flow of the death." Nyx explains, smiling down at Gabriel as he starts the domino effect of Pandemonium.
"Nicely done."
Gabriel studied the bloodied haladie, the blood burning off of the blade and turning into perpetual tendrils of shadow. The black and purple curved blades were populated with demonic rune-like symbols, giving the haladie imperial abilities that strengthened Gabriel’s. These symbols were a mystery to him. The hilt conjoining both blades to the center was a polished chunk of oak wood reinforced with iron. Panning his amber eyes to Nyx, he smiled at the small praise given by the demon lord. “Pandemonium… we can burn this plane of existence in the fires of pandemonium.” He turned his attention to the chaos unfolding before them. The horse-drawn carriage trampled others, scaring and bringing pain to other horses. It was an agitated state of hysterics. Carriages and horses fell like dominoes, many of the giant animals loosening themselves from the broken carriages. Pools of blood started to flow as the horse trampled over people trapped by the carriages. “I am not a broker of souls. I don’t make deals with them, only take them to appease the larger force.”
