Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 - Skull King & Jörmungandr vs Cathal Chaos & Hræsvelgr

Cath and Bolverkr standing across from Masaru and his World Serpent

"Don't you know Cath it's not only the great wolf Fenrir whom fights with me but also the World Serpent, Jörmungandr, whom fights with me" Replies Masaru following so he puts his hand out and says "Metnaðr: Weapon Creation. All hail the mighty Mjölnir!!!" It's then Masaru has made a hammer only designed for him forged from Metnaðrs. The handle made of his Bones and the rest made of the scared Malakarian Aetheral Flame in it's purest form and Ice made from his Cyro-Arcanum Metnaðr.

Bolverkr says "Scared Metnaðr: Hræsvelgr"

Cath looks at Masaru and says "Well you have your beast and I have mine, shall we begin this dance?"

Masaaru stares down Cath and says "Let us dance Cathal Chaos!" as he grins and charges Cath and Hræsvelgr flies straight at Jörmungandr and the biggest battle not only to hit Odal but the entirety of existence begins.

On the way to the West the Queen of Makar stops and signals her army to do so as well as she puts her hand up.

"What is it, my Queen?" Asked Victor of House Sabre

"Don't you hear that? It horses making their way in this direction" replied the Queen of Makar and as she looks on she sees her brother through marriage.

Victor says "So he did it. Would ya look at that. He brought the Revenants to our cause."

Malakas and Dagr, and his Revenants catch up to the Queen's army

"Well my Queen I brought reinforcements" says Malakas to the Queen

The Queen replies "We'll need it, Malakas, but I'm quite shocked you managed this."

Dagr speaks to the Queen not Makar "I am pleased to help, Queen of Makar" kisses the hand of Thalindra

Thalindra replies "So kind"

It's then everyone is hit with a insane amount of crippling aura as they look off in the distance and see a huge storm being summoned off in the very far distance

Back at the shores of the West

Masaaru across from Cath in mid-air raises his new weapon Mjölnir and says "This Metnaðr I received when I defeated one of your Jötnar" as he summons a lighting to be rained down upon Cathal Chaos

Cath then says to himself "Thymr"

Masaaru looks at Cath "It looks like the realization has hit you. Metnaðr: Raining Lighting of the Thunder God" Aetheral Flame imbued Lighting strikes down from the skies and hits Cath driving him down into the planet's core itself. Masaaru then flies to the core of the planet where Cath is and realizes he has made a terrible mistake.

Back at the shore in the ocean Hræsvelgr produces winds so powerful that send Jörmungandr back just a little distance and as the water the wind pushed covers Jörmungandr he rips out of the water and bites down on Hræsvelgr left wing dragging him down into the water just to rise out of the water and tosses Hræsvelgr by finally letting go of the damaged right wing of Hræsvelgr into outer wall of Lorien Doriath with impact like no other he has felt.

The core of the planet

"The chaotic fires of the planet's core fuel me don't you see, King of Makar!" Says Cath

Masaaru replies "Well f$*%" as he is hit with a barrage of attacks launched by Cath called, Spears of Bedlam. An attack in which Cath uses his weapon summoning and imbues his Spears in his Chaotic Primordial Flame from multiple directions. All Spears land direct hits on Masaaru laying him out for the first time in his entire existence. Cath says aloud "Stay here rot" then takes off back to the surface of the planet and sees Hræsvelgr is laid out. Looks at Jörmungandr and tells the World Serpent "I guess it's me and you Serpent!" Following Cath's words Jörmungandr launches a swirlin blast of blue and green energy directly hitting Cath, which Cath absorbs, and sends back at Jörmungandr but imbued with his Chaotic Primordial Flame. After knocking Jörmungandr out, Cath heads to the battlefield.

The battlefield in front of the Western Kingdom

Alfgeir fighting both Fëanor and Galan as he tries to fend both off with his Spear, which he call the Slayer of Elves.

Fighting with his daggers is Fëanor and Galan with his Elven blade

The Cosmic Dwarves tend their King as he had to cut off his arm due the poison arrow shot by Galan

Loki has slaughtered many of the Elves as have the other Jötnar that remain

Cath then arrives and sees still more Elves alive than he is okay with. Cath says to himself as he looks on into the battlefield "Let's lessen their odds more than we've already have. Metnaðr: Primordial Targeting" Cath sets pinpoints on multiple Elves and then portals open up above them "Fires of Surtur" and Primordial Flames rain down upon them, killing more Elves.

Galan loses focus for just a moment and is stabbed in the heart my Alfgeir's Spear, the Elve Slayer. Fëanor looks on with disbelief and then heartbreak as he knows his long time friend won't live from such a wound. "Nooooooo!!!!!" Yells Fëanor and kicks Alfgeir but he takes his Spear with him resulting in it being pulled from the heart of Galan. Fëanor drops to his knnes as he catches Galan in his arms "Come on man, sta with me!!" Galan coughs up blood "Fëanor I-I lost focus. Ou-Our people dea-dead. I don-don't wan-wanna die man." Cries Galan as he slowly dies in the arms of Fëanor whom sheds tears for his childhood friend Galan "Come on man you can't die on me! Galan!!!! Wake up man! Wake up! Damnit all!!" And boom and grieving Fëanor is hit in the face with a boot from Alfgeir as he says "One down, one to go!" sending Fëanor back a few feet laying him out on his back.

Marching is then heard by Alfgeir who stops in his tracks. Cath hears it as well as he looks on and the same with his Jötnar, Cosmic Dwarves, and Chaos soldiers.

Banners are risen from the the Army of Makar and banners are risen from the Revenant Army as well lead by Queen Thalindra, Malakas, Dagr, Mista, Victor. Whom have all came to aid House Elven.

Cath looks on with disgust "These wretched Malakarians and their influence bon Odal sickens me!"

Thalindra raises her sword high and then drops it signaling her and other forces to attack to more than even their odds. Cosmic Dwarves, Chaos soldiers, and the Jötnar clash with Makar's forces and their allies and all out war has begun.

Back at the planet's core

Masaaru wakes up "Damn that was one hel of an attack. I better get back up to see what is going on." Masaaru wills himself up and heads back to the surface of the planet and sees Bolverkr laid out still and no sight of Jörmungandr. "Jörmungandr must have been hit with a critical hit by Cath too after he knocked his boy toy out I'm assuming. Gotta get back to Cath before he does more damage." Masaaru flies over to the battlefield to finally see his Kingdom and their allies have joined the fray.

Myrkr is seen cutting down multiple Elves as he uses his Metnaðr going from portal to portal killing them. Mista catches sight of such and takes action. Myrkr appearing out of yet another portal and just as he is about to kill another Elve he is blitzed with a slash for Mista's blade right across the chest scarring him. Blood is drawn and shot out of Myrkr chest in dramatic fashion. "Metnaðr: Striking Pain of Vengeful" says Mista

Loki and Malakas lock eyes "You must be the one whom killed two of brothers! The King's guard! What is it? Ah yes that is right, Malakas!" Says Loki with enthusiasm.

Malakas replies "A third Jötnar to kill, say less!"

Both Loki and Malakas clash

"Ah yes, so this must be Motber Violet! The o so famous blade passed down through generations in the Malakarian bloodline but it will not beat my shapeshifting staff of mischief." Says Loki as his staff turns into a blade of it's bown and pushed back Malakas down to one knee

Malakas says to himself "This one is different and won't be like the other two Jötnar I killed."

Elsewhere on the Battlefield

"Cath it seems my forces and allies have even the playing field" says Masaaru whom is appears behind Cath as he looks onto the Carnage of the war

Cath replies "It seems so, Masaaru. And it appears you have also shown you can contend with the likes of Primordial Chaos. That attack would have killed anyone else. It's the move that killed countless of your past Malakarian Kings. So let's test how long you can hold out. The other Malakarian King always failed in the end." Cath then creates a weapon of Chaos. A blade with smaller blades sticking out from it's blade imbued with Primordial Flame. And turns and swings a strike at Masaru but he blocks it with his weapon Mjölnir that is imbued with the Aetheral Flame.

Masaru says to Cath "This is the fight with a Malakarian that will be your downfall old man!"

Cathal Chaos faces off with Masaru the Skull King

Malakas faces off with the leader of the Jötnar Loki

A grieving Fëanor faces off with Alfgeir

Emberfall faces off with Queen Thalindra

Stonebloom faces off with Victor Sabre

Wraithsong faces off with King of the Revenants, Dagr

All-Out War for Odal has now begun

Who will prevail? House Surtur or House Makar and it's allies?

Only the ones with the Strongest Metnaðrs Will Prevail in this War
