Classic - Orealt and Miscreant

After a long battle to no avail with Miscreant, I collapsed. My sleep was perturbed by that voice I had begun to hear even in my dreams.

And so he did, leaving me to a stalemate with Malignant...

...a few moons and many battles later, I was resting and enjoying the comfort of a smooth forest gale when my ears filled with the harrowing screams of the Divine Knight, sworn guardian of my home.

=========================================================================

A Divine Knight: 'Alert! Miscreant has intruded upon our cabal!'

=========================================================================

Before I could even think, my body jumped into motion. Once again, my home was under attack and once again I expected a stalemate. How wrong I was.

As I approached the door, I found the Demon and launched my attack.

the steps begin getting steeper here, going up at an alarming rate.

barely breath, but there is a strange warmth coming from golden gates to the

you to investigate further.

(White Aura) A Divine Knight stands before a golden archway.

The Vanguard walks in.

Ordinarily, I would go with blades in the air, but I felt a sullen sort of cloud about my soul that made me want to listen to this Demon speak. I arrived at the lush valley in the Ford and observed the beauty of nature until he came along.

=========================================================================

A lush valley

To either side of you, snow-capped mountains stand majestically in the

distance. The valley is full of vegetation and wildlife. The long grass
