Cleaning Up.

Tianna, weaponless, dives forward as best as she can, trying to claw at you with her hands. You still have your dagger which you just slash upwards, cutting her right hand extremely bad, she yelps in pain as blood splatters across her body, your dagger and the ground.

Just as quickly as that happened, you once more step into her body, with your free right hand, you grip it around her throat, holding her tight, squeezing her, **** her from that needed oxygen.

As you see her eyes start to roll up in the top of her head, you release the squeeze, still holding her by her neck but letting her breath. She gasps hard for air, followed by a slight whimper as her hand and leg are still badly mutilated.

"Come on Tianna, you lost..."

"Fuck you." she spits in your face "If you want this, finish the job!"

"You don't have to die. Tianna, you're a great warrior, live to fight another day. It's stupid to give your life up when there is so much more to come. Think about it."

She hesitates briefly, looking at you, her eyes shift downwards as it looks as if she's contemplating. After a brief moment she connects with your eyes again "Poor fucking Darien..." she pushes her neck forward, pushing it against your hand that's still gripped around it.

You just shake your head at the Sunrider, wondering why she is doing this. "Tianna...."

"You don't have the fucking balls to lead the Sunriders." she grunts at you "No fucking wonder your sister kicked...." her eyes go wide as her mouth drops open.

Your dagger is jammed straight through her stomach, all the way to the hilt. You hold it there, turning it just a tiny bit as you see-saw it back and forth inside her, blood spewing out of her abdomen down onto the Plateau below.

She just looks back up at you, giving you a smirk "Well..." she coughs up some blood "Well done, Darien..." she groans out in pain "Make..." she hacks up even more blood "Make Rathkin pay..."

You pull the dagger from her stomach and release your grip on her throat, her body instantly falls her to knees, her hands go to cup the hole in her stomach. As you witness that you immediately turn around and throw your dagger far into the air, off of the Plateau "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" you shout loud as the dagger flies off into the distance. By the time you turn back, Tianna is face down in the dirt, a pool of blood cascading out from her motionless body, another Sunrider dead.

The sound of rumbling pulled you from your trance as you looked from where the the vibrations were coming from. Thousands upon thousands of warriors, all applauding you. Those warriors, showing their gratitude towards their new leader, gratitude at your skill, gratitude at everything you've done.

You now control one of the deadliest forces on the entire continent. You smile to yourself as you think of everything you've accomplished in your life. From where you started and how much you've grown. Now, it's time to train up, focus your warriors and go decimate Rathkin once and for all.

With your skill and with the thousands of warriors behind your back, you can finally begin your Path of Conquest.
