Raven

Raven wasn't strong enough to take everyone far, but Azarath was close enough to reach safely. They found themselves between dark blue-green skies where stars and planets hung impossibly close. There were buildings around them of marble and gold, and people milling about in robes of grey and blue.

Raven knew Dinah would recognize where they were, but for the rest, she said quietly, "This is Azarath. Welcome to my home."

( You will never find a more wretched hive of....peace and passivity. )

( And then Trigon reappeared. )

( And then Raven decided to be an idiot. )

Raven's Soul-Self returned to the Netherverse and reappeared near where the battle against the demon Goronn still raged, depositing those she had brought back with her from Fandom. It then returned to Raven's side, merging once again with her body as the fight continued.

( Ice, ice, baby. )

( Then a voice rolled like thunder across the skies. )

Goronn

The sky turned black with smoke-like clouds, and two huge sets of burning red eyes peered down from above. Laughter roared like thunder, and lightning struck, tearing a hole in the air, through which crawled a reddish demon as large as five men. Its hands and feet ended in sharp claws, its mouth was filled with huge yellow teeth, and its tail ended in a spiked-club like some kind of demented dinosaur. It seized hold of Raven. "Ahh, little one, come and make Goronn a tasty meal," it cackled. "I hunger, dear Raven, I hunger for you!"

( Yes, he really said that. GOD, canon. )

Raven swept up her friends into her Soul-Self, teleporting them into the netherverse, where Alligorr and his sorcererous companions awaited on a plateau amongst a rocky terrain. They stood now on a narrow bridge of stone that led to this plateau. The skies above were a strange reddish-orange and black.

( Long preplay is looooooooooooooong. )


( And then trouble showed up. In spandex. )

Alligorr had sent word to Raven that it was time to perform the ritual to stop her father from entering this world's dimension. She wasn't expecting trouble, but there was always the chance that there could be an attack by those her father had managed to influence -- not to mention her own fear that she could succumb to her father's control -- so she felt much more confident with her friends there to watch. Their love and friendship gave her strength and helped her overcome her doubt and fear, but she was still nervous.

( Cut for preplay. )

Raven had the spell ingredients that Tara had prepared for her, as well as the instructions on how to use them, set out in front of her on her bed. The spell didn't seem difficult to perform, but she wanted to make certain she understood each step before attempting it. The last thing she wanted was to do something wrong and end up attracting vampires instead of warding them out. Between Max and Sebastian, she was drawing them to her enough on her own, thank you very much. Hopefully the cross Tara had given her would help as well.

Talking to Anakin that morning had her questioning what had happened to her on Monday night, but she remained absolutely certain what had happened. Max had assaulted her and used her powers against her again, just like in the other Fandom.

Sighing, she pushed the spell components aside and tried to calm and center herself. Tahiri needed her help soon, and she didn't want to be distracted by her own Issues.

She just hoped she wouldn't discover any more of her teachers were secretly vampires like Professor Chevalier.
