In the dark cavern Daedalus stood, standing surrounded by the ghastly fog . The gaunt figure again standing before him spoke "You can no longer escape, now except your death . " the word 'Death' rolled off of the gaunt figure's tongue with a vile pitch causing Daedalus to almost flinch back .

As this happened the gaunt figure once more stretched his hand forward, a beam of black light shot out of his hand . Reacting, Daedalus moved swiftly to the side, however by some level of unluckiness the beam pa.s.sed through his left shoulder . Being injured Daedalus looked at the wound to find a pitch black corruption slowly starting to corrode his skin, flesh and bone .

To avoid dying to the corruption that was slowly seeping across his skin Daedalus swung Icarus in a smooth arc . As he moved Icarus back into a ready position the sound of something solid could be heard hitting the floor . He had cut off his own arm .

The gaunt figure seemed to be surprised at Daedalus' decisiveness but didn't say anything before attacking again . However in that moment of hesitation from suprise Daedalus had dashed forward using the Darklight Swift Steps technique . When it registered in the gaunt figure's eyes that Daedalus had rushed forward, Icarus was already cutting through his arm aiming to cut him in half .

The gaunt figure only barely managed to jump back in time to not be cut in half but Daedalus could only feel disgusted . The gaunt figure's flesh was so fragile Daedalus felt like he was more of a corpse than anything else . The gaunt figure saw this and said "I will return in the future, until then do try to stay alive . I want to be the one that kills you!"

The gaunt man said the last words with a vile spit which felt like Daedalus had a sword jabbed into his ear . That gave enough time for the gaunt figure to jump on the dark dragon like creatures back and escape . When Daedalus came to that realisation he stomped his foot in anger at letting the gaunt man go .

Yelling Daedalus aura exploded outwards removing the vile black from the cavern and surrounding area . With the black fog gone Daedalus could feel his senses going back to normal, that's when he realised that he had only fighting at about half capacity compared to normal . Before he could become only more enraged however, Daedalus heard the desolate cries of women .

Running towards the source Daedalus realised that it was the still chained women . With no hesitation Daedalus removed the chains . To his shock and horror the chains had runes that burned the soul while keeping the body and soul alive . He knew that with every moment you would be bound by them you would be in the utmost agony .

After being unchained Daedalus made sure that all of the woman where safely on the ground before pulling a small carriage from his s.p.a.ce ring . After that he carefully placed the sleeping woman into the carriage and started making his way towards the nearest kingdom .
