The closer they got, the more tensed Shik became. It was one thing to battle titans days in and day out, and yet completely another to fight them on the home turf. He counted himself lucky the fog covered everything so well--otherwise he might have been lost in memories. He almost did anyway, less from what he remembered and more in the feelings of being home evoked--tainted lands or not.
Shaheen's voice drew his attention, and he realized belatedly that this would affect her even more. But Shik had no words to soothe her and could only watch forlornly as she started to crumble before him. Action was his forte, however, and he knew where to direct his own rising indignation at the fact that these things were in their home.
His blade summoned in a snap, the executioner leapt forward with a feral cry shortly after her scream, almost as though it were the gunshot that started him off. It did not matter to him that the beast would have a high possibility of dissipating him, or that it probably ran the risk of infecting him if he was not careful. What mattered was that there was a target and an order to eliminate.
The steel suddenly became aflame as he struck the fiend, cutting a swath through the fog but not nearly enough to cause significant damage--not nearly enough to satisfy him. Shik was forced to back away as the flames died down, battered by several tentacles but feeling more enraged rather than hurt by it. "Get it together," he snapped at Shaheen. "You are right here, damn it! They will not have you!"

By the time Mmur got to his feet again, the second titan was gone, reduced to little more than a pile of those strange shards. He squinted into the mists, continuing forward at half the speed he wanted to in the hopes that he wouldn't be the victim of a surprise ambush. In the end, it was one of his comrades that spurred him to action. Mmur turned sharply at the sound of Shaheen's screams, his whip appearing for the third time without a thought. He glanced between her and the shapes in the distance, stubbornly refusing to reply to the voices for as long as he was able. No, he didn't want to go home. The soldier stared ahead, raising his free hand to trace the shapes of the trees. Apparently he was already there. He hadn't visited the Isle of War all that often while it was still around, but besides his own sandy home, it was the island he could identify most readily. He didn't want to know what Famine looked like if this was what that once awe-inspiring jungle had been reduced to. The titan was almost an afterthought when compared to the increasing press of insanity on his mind. Mmur's skin prickled with chill even though he wasn't cold. He focused his FEAR in a rush, whipping his weapon through the air, each strike sending an arc of power toward the creature.

[[ wonders why i gave jay gamblers chance............ ]]
Her eyes were filled with longing when she looked up at the thick blanket of trees approaching. Home. The word was right on the tip of her tongue, but it refused to come out. She could feel the tug of insanity deep inside, calling for the land she once called home and her sanctuary. She grumbled softly, a hand on her stomach in a vain attempt to quell the stirring emotions. They were so close yet so far at the same time. Jay couldn’t figure out what to feel, but kept marching forward nonetheless. She kept walking and walking until the group encountered another titan. The last titan, she hoped. She clicked her tongue as she brandished her daggers and attempted to throw them at the creature, but alas.

Mmur's second attack was much weaker, a reflection of his looming exhaustion. He could feel it creeping up his spine and out through his limbs, but he kept fighting, determined to bring down this unnatural creature who had invaded their lands, invited by those humans who sought to tear them down and leave them with nothing. At least his whip had connected. He backed up a step or two in a crouch, preparing himself for his next move.

With the Insanity Titan taken care of, Yves pressed on alongside his fellow Horsemen, having no intention at all to fall behind now that they had all ventured so far out into the lands that were once their rightful homes. Home. He felt a pang of regret and guilt run through him at the familiar sight of the tree canopy that loomed in the distance. They were so close to it now that he could practically feel it with every fiber of his being.
Wasn't this what he wanted? The voices called out to him, trying to sway him to the side of Insanity as the fog swallowed him whole. All he had to do now in order to get home, to earn his place back where he belonged amongst his family who were still waiting for him, was simple - take up his kodachi and cut down every one of those who were not of War. The Executioner shook his head, his lips pressed in a thin line as he focused on his Fear in a last ditch attempt to cling onto his own will and sanity before starting quickly towards where Shaheen stood the moment he heard her scream.
"Shikora's right. Focus on his words and don't let this madness stake its claim on you. You are much more than this."
Standing right beside the War Chieftain, he frowned at his own inability to offer anything more than words at the moment, unnerved somewhat by how much more the Insanity was affecting her with respect to most of them. There had to be something that he could do about this. Something more than offering hollow words of support without anything concrete to back them up with. Glaring at the Insanity Titan that towered over them, he took a step forward to put himself between Shaheen and it, drawing his materialized blade up to point it at the monstrosity before throwing all caution to the wind and charging.

The titan lashed out again, catching Mmur across the backs of his legs. Thankfully, he was still in a crouch and did little more than rock in place when he was struck. His brows furrowed with his growing rage and the voices that brushed his senses when he least expected them. To the void with their home. He shook his head sharply, grunting in frustration as his hair whipped into his eyes. He really needed to find someone to cut it. "I'm not listening," he muttered, striking his foe as it tried to hit him once more. Quote: HP: 10/40 Damage: 8 Boss HP: 35loot3: Insanity Broken Core x1 4: Insanity Fragment x4

He forced his eyes wide, uncertain as to when they had shut. His mind swam with memories of his youth... memories from two weeks ago... standing tall and proud as he trained with his brethren... expelling all of his breath in a scream. Mmur wasn't breathing now. His lungs burned, but they didn't hurt nearly as much as the titan's backhanded blow. Mmur was knocked off of his feet, bright spots swimming through his vision as he landed hard on his back. With his remaining sense he slashed his whip after the retreating tentacle. Its bladed edges dug into the insanity, though the titan barely seemed to notice. It quickly dragged the horseman a short distance before he planted his heels and pulled his weapon back toward him as hard as he could. It severed through the creature, but its appendage didn't fall away. It remained hovering in midair, the bit of distance separating it from the rest of its body the only indication that anything had happened at all. Mmur remained face up on the ground in the middle of the fight. It seemed as good a place as any to take a rest.
