Jay shuddered. "He said something about 'stfu, you stupid spell, and leave me alone.' That's a rough translation."

Ovalusc's spell did disenchant the swords, causing their metal to stop growing, but the earth continued to rumble. All around Ovalusc, shards of earth spat out violently, knocking aside the rubble from earlier, and followed closely by large boulders. After hovering in the air for a moment, they began to fall towards Ovalusc with a burst of magical energy speeding them up. Anywhere in the metal pool was a target.

Ovalusc's scythe disappeared and his robes once again grew limp, fluttering to the ground.

Jay stretched out his hand, bringing the stones to a stop a few inches above the ground. They hovered for a moment, then with a twist of his palm over, they began to lock together into a creature formed entirely of stone, towering eighteen feet into the air. Deep inside its massive skull, a green light flickered and it became animated.

"Come out, come out, Ovalusc! Concede, and I will let you leave with honor. Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you, though." The massive golem began shuffling through the debris of the battle, looking for evidence of Ovalusc nearby. Jay drew a cross in the air, and a magical shield began floating around him, preparing for a surprise attack.

Jayko's shadow rose up and began to strangle him.

"Dirty trick Oval. Dirty Trick..."

((Smooth...))

Jay struggled against the shadow's grasp, not being able to actually grab it himself. The shield he summoner earlier, though, started to pry itself between the shadow and Jay, defending him with the possible cost of its loss. Finally, Jay had enough room to breath, and instantly let loose a sphere of blinding light that left no shadows to be seen.

Ovalusc's robes flew up and covered the orb, causing a large shadow everywhere. Hands began to grab and attack Jayko from the pool of shadows. The sky also seemed to darken a little.

"scary..."

((I have to go see a stupid play, be back in a few hours D=<))

((A lot of bad cr*p is about to go down...))

One of the shadows clawed at the gauntlet, not pulling it off but still managing to scratch it slightly. Not a great idea.

Out of that one, tiny scratch, arcane energy began to pour out slowly, like a fog. It sizzled lightly through the shadows, eventually reaching the ground, where it spread out across, covering a few square feet.

Suddenly, it burst with glowing energy. It spread out rapidly, covering the entire field, beginning to distort into strange positions. It flew up into the sky, forming a massive raincloud that hailed, rained, and struck with lightning all at once. Across the ground, the earth itself began to shatter, burst into flames, have torrential winds blow across it, and be covered in a beaming stream of light. Nothing was left untouched.

Jay drew a sharp breath. "The...the soul of the gauntlet...can't let it escape..."

He tried to reach for the crack, but he wouldn't be able to cover it unless the torrent of elemental energy destroyed the shadows. It had already struck down the golem; maybe it was enough to stop the shadows.

((Let go or we ALL DIE.))
