Svatur
Wings beat furiously, they couldn't go fast enough, he had just seen too much. Way too much, the pain was everything and the souls were all calling to him from every which way. He just couldn't get away. Svatur had a fleeting thought of Aiyana and how disappointed she would be in him but also of how she would calm him down and help him find peace. That thought was enough allow his mind to make his body start circling downward to land.
His hooves lighted on the Styrr's Beach, which would have been amusing any other time but right now it was far from it. A mare soul was already walking up to him. Time slowed as he saw what she had been through before she died...
Why did he leave? I thought we were going to be together for much longer then we were. We had plans of running away from this place to start a new life together. Why was he so heartless and cruel? What was wrong about our relationship? Why couldn't he just be there for me when I needed him the most? Why couldn't he just listen to me? Why did he have to leave? Why couldn't he just tell me he didn't have the same feelings anymore and save me the heartache?
The poor mare had been so grieved by this that she had started to run and had not stopped. She tripped over a large root and had fallen over the side of a cliff.
Another soul was an older foal,
Danger was everywhere for a slave. Her mother and father had tried so very hard to keep her safe but it was no anvil. The poor foal had gotten forced upon by a group of masters. Another foal had seen her after struggling but that foal's mother and father kept the foal away from her, saying how much of a pity it was that this had happened to her. The other foal had tried to help but she just couldn't do much of anything.
The young foal died by master's beating her to death when she fought against them. The other foal does everything she does today in an effort to help all horses who are suffering in any way.
Svatur told them as kindly as he possibly could to give him a few moments to calm down. The two horses obliged and the souls walked away. But more were coming at him and finally, the sanity that had been there, snapped.
Svatur stood still as a rock, his ears pinned down, and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. The Fog of Death rolled from his body and hooves in fierce waves. One right after another, not ceasing. What few live horses that were around quicukly joined the two souls that were now watching him with fear in their eyes. Svatur's sanity had once again gone into complete insanity.

STYRR GOD of WAR Daggers clashed onto the ground. Thorns perked high upon the skull of this chestnut Friesian. His globes dancing all around at the place that his figure was walking upon. Motioning his figure forwards at a walking pace until he could smell the scent of death enter his land. Thorns pinned upon his head as he knew who was coming to this place. Making his way quickly over the terrain as he looked to see where that damn Svatur was hiding at. His eyes moving all around at the place. For this place was not where he wanted this bastard to be coming into.
Finding his orbs land right onto the skinny ass bastard that came and interrupted his land. His daggers clashed into the ground as he pushed his way over the land and landed to a halt in front of him. Gazing into his globes with his thorns pinned tight on hi skull as he looked at him. Feeling the flames upon his mane and tail began to fill and glow brightly with anger as he looked at the stead before him.
"Why Svatur, what brings you to this beach? There is no death here yet you dumbass?" He snapped as he looked at the sight of this death ridden creature. Keeping eyes tightly on him to watch to see just what he might do. For Styrr never let his guard down and did not ever plan to do that. The only time his guard was down was when a certain equine was in this stallion's view. Though that vulnerability was only shown towards her. He truly just wanted to know what this death creature wanted on his land. Since know fights have come to this place for him to take someone's dead soul. Gazing at him with impatient look upon his skull's eyes.

Svatur
The God of Death continued to stand there, his Fog rolling off of him in waves, his eyes rolled back into his skull. He didn't hear what the God of War had wanted at all, or even what he asked. Svatur was wrapped up in just trying to make everything go silent. "Just be silent! Just be silent, I say! Just be still!" Svatur screamed, pain in his voice, unbearable pain. With his eyes still rolling, the stallion started to walk, not paying attention to anything around him except for the souls that just would not shut up!
He had just gotten healed from stopping that tree from hitting Aiyana and now he had to come back to this. And now Styrr was causing problems just looking for a fight like always. Well the God of War had picked a very bad day to mess with Death. Without even being in control anymore, Svatur was a ticking time bomb that just went off and didb't care what happened to him or anything else.
Laughing, Svatur's shape shifted again and again, almost as if he couldn't decide which form to take for this moment. He would also flap his wings until he was airborne and then light to the ground again, only to do it again. "You want to mess with me, brother! Fine, I welcome the challenge! Come and face DEATH!" The fog was now everywhere and so thick that you couldn't even see the sand or the ocean waves that were starting to go crazy from the force of Svatur's insanity.
But Svatur still wasn't in control, his eyes were still rolled back and his body shook now from the massive effort that it had took to keep control. Now it was all released and Svatur wanted to cause death, he wanted to see everyone around him die. He wanted to kill....

STYRR GOD of WAR Styrr was not up for taking any of Svatur's shit. His thorns pinning upon his head as he knew that this was not the God of Death that he knew. Something about him changed. With his head turning and looking around to see if it was just the beach that they walked upon that had changed him. Then he turned and looked towards Svatur. Listening to his words as he definitely knew that this was not Svatur's true side. Something inside of him had gone and changed. Shifting his weight as he looked at him. Letting his head stand tall upon his shoulders as he looked at Svatur. "No one is trying to fight you mother fucker. You just don't come to my land and think that your dumbass side can come out and turn on me. HELL NO!" He snapped as he stomped his hoof deep into the sands upon the ground.
HIs thorns pinning upon his head as he could feel the flames upon the crest of his neck being to burn harder than ever before. His eyes glaring towards him. His figure shifting as he blocked off all vulnerability towards this equine before him. So glad that Raitha had not come into this part of the land. For Styrr would lose his mind if something was to happen to her. Since he would not watch her die so soon and under the hoof of Svatur's anger. "Come back to fucking earth Svatur. Get that mind of yours back together." He snapped again as he lowered his head down in a snake like pattern. Watching him carefully to see just what was going to happen next.

Svatur [/color][/size] Tell the ones who cared enough That I've finally left this place That's been so cold Look at my face They were all screaming at him, wailing and crying, yelling and laughing. It was insanity to try and listen to all of them all at once, usually he had some kind of mental filter that took the brunt of it but that was gone and they all flooded him all at once now that Svatur had lost his sanity. Svatur laughed, going back to the ground, he laughed and laughed. Svatur couldn't say anything simply because he was suddenly laughing so hard. "Why didn't I do this before? It's going to be so much.... FUN... to kill again. Ha,ha,ha....get it, FUN to KILL again? Get it brother? Get it you mighty God of War! What a joke you are!? Ha, ha, hahahahaha!" Svatur stopped talking and laughing for a couple seconds, his head cocked to one side as if listening to something. It was a distant sound of Styrr's angry pissed off voice. Like usual.
Svatur started laughing again, "Your funny Styrr. Just so much fun.... how about we enjoy a little fight? Eh? What do you say? Hmmm, brother?" Svatur continued to ramble and laugh at the same time, his forms still shifting and his eyes still rolled back into his head.
However, just one of those words clicked with Svatur, just one.
Together.... Aiyana...
Svatur's struggle back to sanity was slow but progressive. His form finally settled into one form, the black fire one with the massive wings that Aiyana liked so much. His feet stayed on the ground and his wings folded to each of their proper sides. Though his eyes were still rolling and he was still uttering nonsense and laughing. "You think you can bring Svatur back? Your kidding yourself, dear brother dear. I am Death not and no one shall defeat me!" [/blockquote]

Aiyana
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin... The beach she raced on was such a dreadful place. A territory where blood stained the sands and many equines had met their end. The sun was blocked by thick clouds, only adding to the ominous atmosphere. This golden female was no doubt out of place there, almost shining in the darkness. Everything about her screamed innocence, and yet she was in such a desolate area. Kicking up sand as she galloped towards the screeching voice she knew to be Svatur, a sense of urgency held her. Had he already taken innocent lives? Was she too late? She couldn't think about that now, and as the voices grew in intensity she pushed herself into moving faster. Sweat had slowly begun to cling to her coat, as she had rushed to the scene. Had it not been for a fearful mortal, Aiyana may have never known he was here. But word spread quickly from mouth-to-mouth, and she had heard the whispers of the sighting of a winged stallion making his way to the seashore. Finally she saw them. Fog spread thickly from Svatur's form, clouding her vision and creating a dampness in the air. As she slid to a stop a few yard away from either stallion, she suddenly had great difficulty speaking between her labored breaths. "STOP SVATUR!" she shouted, able to find a space in her breathing to say it completely. Lowering her head as her chest heaved momentarily, she could already see she was too late. There were bodies. Looking to one, she stared at it in horror before looking from Styrr to Svatur. Even so, all she could think about was his compromised state of mind. Aiyana knew she had to bring him back to reality, to the living world. That was where he belonged, not overrun by the souls of those already gone. "Please, you must stop this..." Quieter now, almost a whisper in the midst of all that was going on. She knew that probably wouldn't be enough, not when he was so far gone, but it was what she had to offer for now. Looking towards Styrr she could almost taste his irritation, and as usual in these states Svatur was looking for a fight. She only hoped the Styrr had the wherewithal to keep his temper under control at Svatur's currently endless instigation.

STYRR GOD of WAR His orbs glaring at the Death ridden creature that stood before him. Watching his motions and movement and taking in each word that rolled into his thorns. His mind driving him so insane as he stood in front of Svatur. His daggers shifting over the top of the sand. His boa bowing as he arched it up. With his thorns back and his skull vertical to the ground. Making a striking out motion with his hoof. Slamming It back into the sand. Feeling the small partials of sand flying up around him. "GET THE FUCK OFF OF MY BEACH!" He snorted loudly after shouting his words towards him.
Eyes turning quickly when he heard the sounds of hooves rushing into where they were. Thorns pinning as he thought it was one of the minions of Svatur coming into the scene, but as he looked at the icy figure coming in his direction. His mind looking all over Aiyanna as he saw that she was tired. Then turned and looked over towards Svatur as she spoke towards him. Knowing that she probably was not able to get through to him. With his orbs looking back over towards her with his thorns perked towards her. Please Aiyanna, do not get any closer." He said softly as he looked into her orbs. Wandering just what she was going to do before he turned and looked back to Svatur. Moving his figure so that he was between Aiyanna and Svatur. Just in case he tried to do something stupid and attack Aiyanna. That Styrr could protect her a little bit.

Svatur Undead, undead, undead, undead Cause I'm a god motherfucker, there's a price to pay Get out my gun, and it's judement day
Svatur finally stood still, he had gotten his sanity back enough to stay in that form that Aiyana loved so much and to fold up his wings, a submissive sign from a pegasus actually. He mumbled a couple of other things but now his mind was fighting for control again. This was where the real battle was for Svatur, everything was mental with him.
He started with the souls farthest away within his reach and forced them back behind the wall in his mind. He then did the same with the the next closest souls, and the process continued until he got to the ones that had made him lose his sanity and had also killed with his insanity. The entire fragile process threatened to break then and start all over but then he heard Styrr screaming at him and Aiyana's kind words. Together it gave him the strength to push forward until all the souls were back behind his mental wall of sanity. He could still hear them all of course but it was a trickle, not a flood. His Fog stopped as well and the air cleared completely.
His eyes returned to normal finally and focused on Styrr and Aiyana. "Why am I here? What... what happened? Aiyana.. why are you here? Styrr...? Most of his strength suddenly gave as the mental and physical toll hit him. Svatur stumbled a few paces before giving in and laying down on the freshly warming sand. "Did I lose it again? How many have I killed?"

Startled by all the yelling, the goddess couldn't help but prance in place nervously. Surely Styrr didn't mean to fight Svatur in this state? She honestly couldn't tell, and knew little of the God of War's attitude. All she knew was his title, and to have one he no doubt must have instigated battles in the past. Still, he must have had a heart of some sort if her safety was an issue to him. Aiyana hardly even saw Styrr as he stepped in front of her, her eyes focused on the black stallion she absolutely adored. The goddess didn't need protection, she knew it. Svatur would never hurt her, even in his craziest moments. At least, he hadn't yet. The mare ignored most of his questions, as it seemed pointless to try and answer them when he was still so dazed. Honestly enough, she didn't know the answer to all of them. Why Svatur had chosen Styrr's beach in a fit of rage she didn't know. Everything would come to him, eventually. Sighing in relief and finally able to recover her energy from her gallop there, Aiyana moved swiftly to Svatur. Touching his crown the goddess breathed in his scent and nudged the spot just behind his ear. "You're alright now, love. All is well." She assured, standing next to him in all her loveliness. As far as situations go, Aiyana definitely shined in this area. It was said that her voice could calm the most ferocious beast, and Svatur had never been an exception. He was, though, the only creature she'd race to aid. His well being was important to her, and she let it show with no reservations.

STYRR GOD of WAR HIs thorns perked high and his figure relaxed he saw that Svatur as coming back into the view that he was suppose to be. Yes, it look longer than he wanted it to take. For Svatur did not need to bring his shit to this beach no matter what God he is. It was not necessary to bring that shit into this place unless there was a death happening within this land that we walk upon. Then as Styrr looked from the ground as he took in a deep breath. With the sound of hooves running past him. Looking up to see Ayianna loving all over Svatur. His thorns pinned and his head lifted up in discuss. "Okay. Okay. I know that Svatur is back to himself FINALLY! But that lovey dovey shit can go on some where." He said as he looked at him.
Yes, he loved Riatha to death, but he was not going to be all lovey dovey with her on a beach that is stained of blood. It's just something he wouldn't do. Wait. He might in the end, just with no one around here. He rather do it with just him around and everyone else some where else in this damn place than his beach when he's with her.

Svatur [/u][/size] It's been a while, since I could hold my head up high It's been a while, since I saw your pretty face Taking a few deep breaths to recover his strength, Svatur struggled back to his feet before Aiyana rushed to his side. For a while they were lost in each other's company, both enjoying the scents of each other. "Yes I am alright now. I still don't understand how I got here but I need to know how many I killed..." Svatur stated adamently.
He heard Styrr in the background and the hotheaded God made him chuckle, ina good way, not the insane crazy laughing he had had earlier. "I thought you hated my guts, brother. But you certainly have a weird way of being there for me." Svatur nodded his head towards Styrr to show his gratitude. He then looked around and came to the realization that this was the mortal's beach that they had named after Styrr. Interesting. Very interesting.
The souls on the beach were calling to him, afraid of him but still willing to trust him on the only fact that he was the only one able to see and hear them. "Yes, yes, don't worry little ones, there will be no heartache anymore for you all where you are going." He paused as one stood out, his tail swished and his eyes blazed in anger for a split second, a whip appeared to slash the soul a few times, his voice was low and dangerous, deadly, "Except you! You will be taken to the depths of the Dark Side to suffer your fate in endless pain!" Chains on the soul's legs, neck, and body appeared, chaining him to the 'ground' and then some.
Svatur focused his energy back to Aiyana and Styrr, all traces of that anger towards the soul gone. "What sould we do now?" [/blockquote]

The goddess laughed at the fiery studs discomfort, lifting her muzzle. Aiyana looked to Styrr quietly for a moment, pondering his character. She knew very little of the history between the God of War and the God of Death, but they obviously had an odd relationship going on between them. Even if they hated each others guts like Svatur mentioned, they were allies brought together by fate. For they could never really live without each other. As Svatur began to speak to beings Aiyana couldn't see, it set her into a state of unease. The hatred he spoke for an unseen soul bothered her, even though she knew that that was simply the way of his work. In response she couldn't help but back away from him slightly, unnerved momentarily. Regardless of that, though, she was able to meet his final question with a smile. "I am unsure as to that, Svatur." It was odd, how bipolar the black stallion could see some times. Those that knew him well, like Aiyana did, knew that there were reasons behind it, though. Looking back towards Styrr, the goddess took on her usual sense of quiet as she waited for what he would have to say. He definitely seemed like the type to always have something to add in.

STYRR GOD of WAR His eyes shifted about the land for a moment as he saw that the fog had disappeared around them. With the sun now shining down around them, but slowly beginning to fade away from where we stood. The sight of Svatur back to his normal self was a good thing to see, but Styrr was really ready for him to leave this land. Yes, he was the God of Death and was welcomed her, but only when the sight of a death happening is when he was allowed to step hoof onto this terrain. Letting his thorns perk as he listened to Aiyanna and Svatur talk. Making Styrr roll his eyes as he looked at them and then looked away. With his thorns perked on his head as he heard the sound of Svatur's voice come into his mind as he stood there.
Hearing him speak about the fact that Styrr hated his guts. For that was true that Styrr did, but hhe was not going to let Svatur come onto this land and claim the lives of the ones that are not ready to die. For he turned his eyes back onto Svatur before he spoke his words into his direction. "Yes, you did kill two on my beach, but they came into your path at the wrong time so I had to show my face to try and stop you. And yes, I do still hate your guts, but I was not going to let you come onto this land when there was no death ready to be taken from here." He said as he looked at him as he saw the sight of Svatur's nod to him. For he gave him a nod right back to him, but only because Styrr still had a noble side to him that he can still show respect to him.
Watching him carefully as he spoke out into the opening. Turning his eyes and looking over to Aiyanna as she seemed to still not be use to what things Svatur did. For he was one that could take those who are evil and strip them from this world in a heart beat and leave those who do good wander this place every day. Turning his eyes back over to Svatur as he asked just what they should do. For Styrr stood there for a moment as he heard the sound of Aiyanna's words roll into his thorns and then it hit him. With a thought racing around in his mind. He looked back and forth at both of them. "Maybe we can discuss the fact that we might have a bit more trouble coming around this place." His lips closing as he looked into the distance for a moment in thought. Letting his eyes looking back over towards Svatur. "And when that comes. Svatur we are going to really need to band together. An Aiyanna..." He paused for a moment as he looked away. His mind thinking of Riatha and knowing she might get hurt or worse. Though he shook his head and looked back over to her. "Might be a good idea if you start building some kind of shelter for those who do not have a herd can come and hide from the evil that is to come." He said towards them both. Finally, he had some idea that might come into good use and not just fighting all of the time.

Svatur And you Can bring me to my knees Again
Svatur's heart broke at seeing Aiyana step away from him. He was suddenly very glad that she couldn't see what he saw and hadn't shifted to the form he used when he got the Dark Side souls, they had thought that the decaying form was bad, they had no idea. The God of Death was fully aware of the monster he could be. "Aiyana..." Was all he could say. He couldn't apologize for doing his job and with certain souls, he was forced to be cruel and abusive. Once again, he thought how glad he was that the goddess couldn't see the soul chained down to the sand with 'blood' dripping off of him and hear that souls cursing and wailing in rage and sorrow for his fate. No one could but him... and that was the curse he had been given when he was mortal which made him into the immortal God of not only Death but Sickness as well.
Styrr broke through his thoughts by stating how many he had killed and to his shock, it was only two. He knew deep down that there had been a reason he had chosen Styrr's beach to go insane, less bodies to murder and no chance of killing foals. Svatur nodded but said nothing else.
Then Svatur heard the God of War,"I agree wholeheartedly that we all need to band together. The mortal world is only going to get worse as we immortals continue to fight against Chaos and Nemesis."

As one of the original gods, Aiyana could remember too well the arguments Chaos and Nemesis had caused in the past. The two of them had made themselves the heavens equivalent of a family's black sheep. Sighing, the goddess wondered why war was always the answer to such things. No matter what the two exiled mares attempted to do, it would no doubt lead to death and destruction. Two things that Aiyana regarded with particular distaste. Yes, she'd help in protecting the lives of innocent mortals, but if the lines of those that were fighting were to be broken, the goddess doubted her ability to really keep those foals, mares, and elderly safe. All she could do was provide them with some sense of comfort. "My forest is always open for use as a safe haven." she mentioned, thinking of all the equines she had met there. "I could create a place in the depths of that woodland. I'm not strong enough to fight..." Pausing for a moment, she added quietly, "But I'll do what I can to protect them." Smiling slightly, she set her gaze on Svatur. "That will be a difficult day for you, I do hope you can handle it." Aiyana was momentarily worried for him, but quickly reminded herself that there was yet to be actual evil in the mortal world. There was no reason to get all worked up now.
