Volume 4: Chapter 9

The Lemurian Belt

The Century Corps have become stowaways on Yuteyh's personal barge, they're in close proximity to the Third Portal Battery

Kelpie: How do we get this back to a secure location?

Demeui: That plan is a Work in progress

Elghene: We just gotta keep our eyes on it

Neve: Easy for you to say

Kiqi: We simply must follow the cult to the next destination

Iaray: It might be a long path

Elghene: Then we must stay strong

Hyuken: I've got a few choice words for The Century Corps administration if they survive

Neve: You can save your breath, I will resign after the Adamite Key is taken care of

Thechr: Where was this attitude before?

Neve: Things have changed

Elghene: Well Neve, your decisions are yours to make, even if they are the wrong ones

Neve: There is no wrong or right objectively speaking, only what we chose

Thechr: I believe this has ran its course

A silence takes over for an ever so brief second before a cannonball strikes the ship causing it to shake

Hyuken: What the hell was that?

Elghene: I see a malestorm of enemies

The Century Corps runs onto the ship's main deck

Kieghan (Over Megaphone): Cult of Sheyane, we have sensed you are in possesion of Two Batteries that power the portal to the Garden of Eden. We, The Sinners Sextant will take them off your hands

Yuteyh (Over Megaphone): We need The Adamite Key to ressurect our god, so we will not give it up to you

Another megaphone buzzing is heard

Aoenen (Over Megaphone): The Cult of Sheyane tried to kill me and destroy The Great Pionin's Truth, make sure to kill every last one of them

Neve: No no no he has to get out of here

Odio sees The Century Corps on the deck

Odio: Hey you guys were here the entire time?

Demeui: Yeah?

Yuteyh: This must be good for your Century Corps, I assume your goal is to see our organization destroyed?

Thechr: Our mission is to destroy The Adamite Key so it cannot be used, you just stood in opposition to us

Odio: You technically attacked us first but oh well who cares

Yuteyh: Our goal is to destroy anyone who dare opposes our god, which includes you

Odio: Yeah

Iaray: Well still, can't we reach a deal of convience

Yuteyh: No, I will execute you myself

As Yuteyh moves to attack Iaray, Odio fires an arrow volley at Yuteyh

Yuteyh: You dare betray me!!

Odio: My loyalty never really lied with you

Elghene: Is that one of your strengths?

Woelyn: Seems I tricked even the great Elghene

Elghene: Another lie, becuase this was our plan

Elghene: Well not exactly, I wanted to keep tabs on The Cult of Sheyane's suspicous activity so I got permission to enact this operation with Woelyn

Woelyn: Yeah, pretty cool how we were able to pull this off

Yuteyh: I was starting to like you Odio

Iaray: Please let me in on your plans next time Woelyn, I was so worried about you

Woelyn: Yeah sorry about that

Woelyn: Oh what the hell was that?

A group of Sinners Sextant agents assault the barge

Ayev: Hello Captain

Kieghan: We are here to take the portal batteries back to Palestine to join the first

Woelyn: Lucky for us, the Fourth Portal Battery isn't here, it's back in a place called The Coral Chamber

Elghene: Good to know

Kieghan: Well I'll just take the one that is here

Kieghan moves to impale Neve but suddenly another party jumps down and takes the hit

Aoenen: You guys didn't really think I was worth a damn did you

Aoenen coughs some blood before attacking Kieghan again

Neve: What are you doing, you idiot

Aoenen: Put away your concern, I'll be fine

Woelyn: I've got this

Woelyn fires a volley of arrows at the assailants, one lodges itself in Aoenen's shoulder

Neve: WHAT ARE YOU DOING

Woelyn: Defending the ship

Aoenen: You're a member of the cult aren't YOU

Woelyn: Name is Odio

Aoenen: I'll take you apart

Aoenen moves to attack Woelyn but Kiqi intercepts and impales Aoenen through the chest

Aoenen: YOU INGRATE

Kiqi: This fate serves you right

Hyuken: Kiqi maybe you should calm down

Aoenen: I, the pureborn will always be superior to you

Hyuken: Nevermind you have permission to kill him

Kiqi takes his arms out of Aoenen as Kieghan knocks him off deck

Neve: ….

Kieghan: So shall we dance?

Woelyn: Gladly

Thechr: You only wish you could

Neve: ….

Elghene: She's quiet

Demeui: Well Kiqi just killed her evil boyfriend, I'm not surprised she's pissed

Kieghan: Wait why would one of your own do that?

Kiqi: I'm not sure myself why I killed him, I could have just stunned him

Hyuken: Well killing him was the right choice, he was a bad man

Neve: Shut up

Kieghan: Now she wants to talk

Neve: SHUT UP

When Kieghan and Ayev are defeated

Kieghan: Ayev, you need to retreat, that's an order

Ayev: …

Neve runs towards Kieghan and pins them to the ground

Neve: I'm going to…tear you apart

Ayev gets away as The Century Corps surround Neve

Demeui: Neve, stop this

Neve: No

Neve begins using her poison power to create poisonous acid that begins to erode Kieghan.

Thechr: That's enough!

Thechr grabs Neve but she shakes them off as she melts Kieghan into a puddle of flesh and rage

Demeui: What have you done?

Neve: What needs to be

Iaray: I can't believe the act os savagrey I just witnesed

Elghene: Our violence is part of our nature, it simply can't be helped

Kiqi: Maybe…this is why they say never neet your heroes

A brief silence takes hold before it as shattered just as quickly.

Thechr: Woelyn…what is the gameplan

Woelyn: Well I'm by default leader of The Cult of Sheyane, so I will lead us to the Coral Chamber and we'll go from there

Thechr: Lead the way then

And so, Woelyn took command of The Cult's forces and began the journey to The Coral Chamber
