He would later use this incident as a reason to NOT surprise a god was suffering from war shock. The doors burst open, and he heard 'kill,' and the reactions of almost four millennia in combat kicked in. Basic armor sprouted around him, covering the neck, biceps, thighs, and belly, and light wrapped around his head, giving him a tactical view of the situation, which revealed a couple things. God level gold dragon, and movements indicated probably attack. His body was moving even as the rest of the information poured in, noting very old size, divine rating somewhere between 5 and 9, and that it was female. The weapon he had carried for nearly two millennia, a demonic beyonder tainted Sivridut with a MASSIVE weight on one end with wickedly sharp flanges on it, and a down right poisonous spike on the other, flashed into existence in his grip, already swinging even as the inbuilt AI<strong>finally</strong>got off its ass enough to put a name to the dragon. Vorela.<br/><br/>He was already swinging, the massive weight regaining its mass just as the AI identified her, which meant stopping it was like a mortal trying to stop the tides. But he managed to, though he turned his right arm's bones from a series of lightly healed fractures into powder, and was helped by one of the constructs diving to the side, giving it JUST enough room to fire a kinetic bolt into his right shoulder, arresting his weapon's arc. The weapon actually screamed in frustration as it missed, denied blood, but settled as Draiss lost his grip, and slammed into the temple ground hard enough to leave a five foot deep crater. He collapsed to his knees, panting in reaction to what he had nearly done, adrenaline, and pain, before looking up at Vorela. "Hello, Vorela. Nice to see you again too. Had a rough time getting home. Been better. See if you can help Jashah, she has been hurting herself and E'Lune trying to get me and V'elen back to something approaching functionality. Don't mind the flesh tentacles or the arm and leg of whatever-the-fucking-hell metal it is, they are currently passive."
