A fair amount of time? Does that mean, that between that clash and your summoning, there was a lull? That town seemed to suggest so, the people there seeming to be used to each other's presences, but that would mean...

A cold unease sinks into you, an almost sick feeling settling into the depths of your stomach. If there was that much time, and Discord summoned first, then he likely thought up of that first, and Harmony only learned recently, very recently. That means, he had all that time to prepare, all that time to stack the decks and load the dice.

A chill runs down your spine.

Valor seems hesitant, but eventually gives in and continues walking.

The man seems to be content with painting while muttering strangely. "Farewell, Champions. Now, let us count colors... one, two, three, any less than two and it becomes solid and meaningless, four, five, six, seven, eight. That's two times two times two. What a wonderful castle!"

... A little bit later...

You are all in front of a foreboding set of doors. Metal and gothic, they very much blend in with the rest of the castle - it is almost comical how much the building stands out in the idyllic scenery.

Valor places a hand on one of the doors, before looking back at the rest of the party. "We strike quickly and efficiently. Defeat any adversaries and attack Thiyr as soon as possible. We outnumber him seven to one. Are all of you ready to fight?"

Mawr shifts the axe at her hip, and raises her hand, prepared to cast her terrain magicks and to pool water in the hallways of the castle.

Ryuto uncomfortably shifts, looking over at Sera.

Sera doesn't notice, as she's fiddling with her belt a bit more.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

>"The others here, are refugees from when those gods tried to fight" nod towards Mitsurugi, "and they, have been here for a while now. Remember when Harmony said that the Fiends were summoned first? That probably means it was Discord's idea, and she, only had about as much time to react as much as he was willing to give her. While he, has had all that time from then, to now, to prepare. And I have a feeling that, unless he wants to give us a sporting chance, either something forced him to start early, or he's only done it now because he's confident he'll win."

(Yep... unless that imbalances things. But it seems too late anyhow.)
