Back in Falador, Terrethus was losing its patience. Somehow, its opponents had managed to survive its attacks, and, with dogged determination, picked themselves back up and charged back into the fray.

The Icyene could not fly with a broken wing, but sje did not let this hinder her. With superhuman agility she seemed to dance past Terrethus' attacks cutting him in one place then another without putting herself in danger.

The demon fighting Terrethus used less tact, but was still effective. It moved in quickly for a heavy strike, then backed away, hurrying out of Terrethus' reach. Terrethus would have chased after it, but the giant kept getting in its way; standing in front of Terrethus and sending powerful punches into the ancient demon's jaw.

To top all this off was the eagle-creature which flew above Terrethus' head striking it with blessed winds or slamming into it depending on the openings in Terrethus' defenses.

With a burst of rage, Terrethus summoned an earthquake which leveled buildings and knocked back its ground-laden opponents. While those three opponents were occupied, the demon swatted the eagle-creature out of the sky.

Ignoring the continuing quake, Terrethus moved toward the demon who had attacked it, planning to eliminate one of its opponents before they were able to adjust. Terrethus was halfway there when it noticed something on the ground and stopped.

Standing before it was what appeared to be a young human male, staring up at it with a bored expression.

Terrethus' first throught was to ignore the human until it was done with its opponents. But to its surprise, it sensed the power of the Void emanating from the human. Realizing that the young man could be a threat, Terrethus resolved to get rid of him first, and slashed at him. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

From the castle, the white knights called down warnings to the man, telling him to flee, but either he couldn't hear or didn't care what the knights were saying, because he remained where he was. Terrethus' claw made contact and an explosion of dust shot up from the ground where the young man had been standing.

The knights stared in horror, waiting for the dust to settle and reveal the dying young man or his corpse. When the dust finally did settle, both they and Terrethus were shocked. The young man was still standing, and was holding back Terrethus' massive arm. Frowning, the young man flung Terrethus' arm away, knocking the demon back.

By now Terrethus was livid, never in its many years of existence had a mortal actually managed to match him. With the single thought of destroying the mortal who had hurt its pride, Terrethus recovered itself and gathered power for a devastating spell, but in its rage, Terrethus forgot its other opponents, allowing them to get far too close. Once again, the Icyene was dancing around it, slashing and stabbing with her blessed blade, while the demon hacked away at Terrethus, the giant's punches began to shatter Terrethus' stone hide, and the magic winds of the eagle cut through him from above.

These attacks distracted Terrethus for only a minute, but the minute was enough. Seeing his opponent's guard down, the young man opened his mouth and breathed a blast of fire at Terrethus.

Terrethus' eyes widened as he felt dragon fire burn through his hide. Though his body was made of stone, not even that could withstand dragonfire. The stone turned molten, and in doing so, weakened Terrethus, who now stumbled back. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Sensing their opponent weakening, the four generals of the gods moved in for the kill. Zilyana plunged her blade hilt deep into Terrethus and called on Saradomin's holy power, sending a large surge of divine energy into the demon. K'ril buried his axes in Terrethus' back, and sent gallons of Void poison surging through the older demon's body. Kree'arra gathered all the power he could from Armadyl, and with it, created a furious whirlwind, which he slammed into Terrethus' weakened flesh, burrowing a hole through it. Not wishing to be outdone in a fight, Graa'dor gathered all his strength into one punch and sent it slamming into Terrethus' jaw. The force of the punch was too much for the demon, and its head cracked from the blow.

Terrethus howled in rage, realizing that the unthinkable had happened; it was dying. Realizing the significance of the howl, the young man who had joined the fight last jumped to Terrethus' left arm, and with a swift, deft motion, somehow managed to cut off the demon's arm.

The god generals watched in surprise as the young man muttered a spell over the arm, causing it to shrink to the size of a human arm, then, catching it, landed deftly on his feet.

Without so much as a word to the general's the young man strapped the severed demon arm to his back and walked off. The generals noted in surprise, that even though Terrethus' body had turned to ash, its severed arm remained intact.

After the young man had left, the generals stared at one another; among them, only Kre'arra and Zilyana had any semblance of trust for each other, and as such, each wondered whether it would be wise to attack the others. Quick commands from their respective gods put a rest to those thoughts, and grudgingly, each of the generals departed, leaving the awe-struck white knights staring where they had been. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Admittedly, it was a little rushed. I've been busy with work and getting ready to move for a while now, and wanted to get an add up. The result, I'm afraid, was probably a bit sub-par. (And now stupid political things are also happening. I wanted to relax on my vacation. -.- ) "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand.
