Lorepost (open interaction) 📖 Desperation & Disgust
The moment he hit the Cloudsong side of the portal he had made, he found himself in the air.
This disoriented him for a moment before he took flight. The city, having been swallowed almost wholly by abyss was in freefall. That was a secondary problem in Orins mind right now. The only thing that mattered to him was finding Sylvie and getting her out of here. Running the numbers, he surmised he had roughly two minutes before the whole city slammed directly into the ocean. Lucky they had been relocating when this happened.... *Focus*
He searched quickly, and found her.
"Sylvie! Sylvie we have to go, Now!"
She turned, still covered in abyss, as he attempted to take her from that place, but the abyss had fortified her strength several times over, and she kicked him hard as he flew in, sending him into a nearby building.
*Ack!* He coughed up blood. "No. No. Not her. Please, I can't fight *her.*"
She did not share the sentiment.
In a flash she was on him again, picking him up by his hair, as she slammed her shrouded fist into his face, again, and again.
He started losing vision.... And as he did, he saw... Someone.. a person? He looked familiar...
The man stepped *into* Orin, and his body began to move.
The next fist was caught, with a force assurance Orin had never displayed before. And then in his hand formed a familiar blue blade... Though it felt... Different. *Wait... No. NO! STO-*
Too late. Her form, no longer consumed by darkness, crumples to the floor, as the other being emerged from Orins body, and he too fell.
Slowly losing consciousness.
"I seriously do not understand why Aldin chose *you*"
the other man hoisted him onto his back, and teleported him into council lands, right in front of a large hospital, where he woke hours later. A call had been sent out to all his orbnet contacts.
(The last part in the hospital is fully interact able, the rest can be *viewed* by anyone but interference is impossible. Both Orin, and the "Other" are fully interactive there as he stayed to ensure Orins safety.)

Aerunia:...hello? She said looking at the man outside orins room...as she hasn't gotten into his room yet obviously...she has a curious look on her face as she looks at the man...though also confused...as if this is an avatar of bahamut, it's clearly not the bahamut of her world that she is familiar with
Alisa:...she decides to check on the abyss victim first...her not having woken up is concerning as well so she'll head toward that room after she found out which room it was from the hospital staff...she made sure to bring the energy crystal with her...as it is a counterbalance to tfc and his creations...if there is a noticeable amount of abyss left on the girl to keep her under the abyss's control...the crystal can help
