You know the first rule in combat? Shoot them before they shoot you.

Auspice coughed heavily due to the sudden smokescreen, but immediately searched for Mercy in the cloud of pollen.
"Aww, too scared? I knew you were pathetic and weak, just like everyone else."

Auspice was now left with Renata, keeping distance from her as she watched Rhuna run off after Mercy. Her hood was down, so her long, brown and royally done hair was visible, and her purple eyes could clearly be seen, unlike before. She kept her scythe at her side, thinking to herself.
"Hmmm..."
Auspice turned to Renata, knowing she was the one that impowered her, though she didn't say anything.

That is, until she managed to hit something, evident by the blood on her blade. She tried to be quick, so she could still outrun Rhuna and Auspice. "You'll pay for what you've done to this world."
"I'm not sure what locks... these are. Maybe try brute forcing them open?" Matsunaga suggested, shrugging and looking back at the cell door.

Rhuna continued to run towards Mercy. Once she had found her, she immediately tossed her glaive, aiming at Mercy's shoulder. She could not let this goddess take her lover's life. "You will stop, unless you are begging to die." Normally, Rhuna would be more violent than this, but she was softened up, thanks to Yeka.

Renata sighs. "I am just a simple businesswoman, looking to expand her horizons. With incentives and all." She snaps her fingers, the decanter floating up next to her and giving Auspice a bit of a pleasant aroma. "What is it to you?"

Your children?"

"You don't know pain, do you? I have lost more than you could EVER know! I hardly ever GAINED anything in life! Yeka was the only person to bring me happiness again, and you are going to kill her! That hurts even more. Don't you DARE mention my dead family or children EVER again...!" She started to sob, dropping her glaive and putting her arms over her face, embarrassed. She hoped that Mona at least had some empathy for her. After all, hardly anyone in her family line was alive, that only being Vhaut and Rhulk. "L-Let that sink in!"
Auspice chuckled lightly. “Mmm… mostly because I have hardly ever talked to people that didn’t want to end me or arrest me right on the spot.” She looked at her own scythe-free gloved hand that was freezing cold. Not much later, she put that hand back to her side. “Auspice.” The Fatekeeper exchanged her name back, gazing into Renata’s eyes, as if she was looking for a hidden truth.

Auspice turned back to face the hallway. "For a little while. In the end, I don't care about them. I just wanted to get my payment for this. The head of all other followers, Rhuna, promised me freedom if I helped them out during troubling times. Ugh, I really do hate those other gods. Now, I'm free, there is no need for me to lurk around here anymore. I'm only still here because I get to fight Mercy. In the end, they are all meaningless trinkets, to be subjugated."
She spoke before starting to slowly walk off, then vanishing in the Darkness, as if it had welcomed her and let her walk its shadow-y plane. She was going to find Mercy again. She wouldn't stop fighting her until either her or Mercy was dead.

Renata raises her arm. "Wait." She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a little shining blue vial. "I know you don't know me and it is an old rule to not accept gifts from a stranger..." She throws the vial in a casual arc, expecting Auspice to catch it. "But it would be rude to not help you enjoy your freedom for more. If you ever need help... you know where to find me." The vial had her company logo on it.

Auspice, did in fact catch the vial, well, one of her Taken Captains that came out of the shadows caught it, jumping back into the Darkness. "Thank you... errr... Renata. I will be seeing you again." She spoke telepathically before the voice completely vanished, not being heard again.
