(Andraus)<br/><br/>Zion would place his hand on his head as he came to. It felt...odd. His body should be burning, magical overload caused muscles, both mental and physical, to suffer damage, but his body just felt tired. As he sat up, he saw Azurine was looking towards him. Pushing himself up, he would place a hand on his head, before looking towards her. He saw the illustrious white locks on her head, before speaking up. "<b>You know, you do look better in White- You remind me of the Messiah, from the Tower of Life, in the old stories my mother told me." </b>He said, pushing himself up.<br/><br/>Zion knew he needed to buy time, Maddox was not some magician in over his head- He was God, a divine being created by the Void and the Abyss to govern the world. Trying to come up with a plan, Zion would remember his sword- The blade was powerful enough to slay a god, but Zion was not powerful enough to wield it to it's fullest potential. A time would come when he'd need that blessed blade to cut Maddox down, but for now, it's power would be more useful protecting him and his home. With the Goddesses Light over the place, there was only so much Maddox could do, but that did not mean he was not clever, he'd find a way.<br/><br/>This would buy them the time they needed.<br/><br/>Zion held the blade out, as he flew over the fountain, before impaling itself on the stone figure. It's energy shooting up, it formed a neigh invisible barrier around the estate. They could not remain here, this was true, but that barrier would keep them safe while they were here. Zion would then look towards her as he would gesture for her to follow him. "<b>I broke Maddox's hold over you, and replaced it with my own, granting you a clear mind..." </b>He said, before holding up his hand. He would place it on her face.<br/><br/>"<b>I think we'll both enjoy the freedom it grants you." </b>He said. He had a hold over her mind, this was true, but she was just one person, and they were facing a god. Right now? They needed to speak with the Queen. Zion needed to become apart of her court, so that he could successfully navigate things on his end.<br/><br/>Luckily, a Court Mage was right next to him.
