Many fighters fell to the attack, while others dodged or blocked to save their on lives. By then, the black kingdom warriors realized that this new monster was a threat to them as well, so the two warring factions began attacking together before they would turn on each other yet again.

It was finally overwhelmed & fell to the earth. The lodged weapons dislodged themselves as the crystal receded, leaving the mechanic, covered in cuts, dirt, & grime lying on the battlefield. He was motionless, but was only unconscious.

The battle proceeded as it had been going, though now the focus in that area was a fight over who would take the powerful being prisoner to use in the war. The black warriors were powerful, but far outnumbered by the white ones. It was no time at all before they were thrown back, and a white knight grabbed Arron to take to the kingdom.Time passed, and the sun finally sank from the sky, calming the battles if only a little. By the time it was entirely dark, Arron had been taken to the white kingdom's prison, and locked incredibly securely away in one of the dungeons.

It would be a long time before Arron awoke, once he did, it would most likely be close to daybreak. He was dazed & confused. He tried to sit up.

Chains tugged at Arron's body, wrapped tightly around his arms, chest, and legs. He was securely chained with his arms behind his back, and two lengths of chain on either side of him pinning him to the floor of the dungeon cell. The dungeon was eerily quiet, other than the sound of dripping, but it was surprisingly clean. The walls and floors were of the same golden-coloured stone that the rest of the kingdom was constructed of, but only a single window high up from the floor let any light in. Bar lined every side around Arron, though the cell was decently large. The area nearby was dark.

He slowly tested the chains before calling out for someone. His voice rasped, showing signs of dehydration. The ordeal had made Arron extremely weak in strength, so getting out of the chains was doubtful.

The chains held strong, and jangled and clanked against eachother when Arron tested them. His voice and the sound of the chains echoed through the empty walls of the cell, only interrupted by a cough from somewhere nearby.Not far from Arron, chained in the cell beside him, was Talbot, though only his arms were chained to the dungeon wall behind him. The dripping sound came from the wound in his shoulder, which had been treated, but still leaked blood onto a growing puddle on the floor. He coughed again, but didn't seem to be conscious.

Once again, Arron called out, hoping to get someone's attention. He did not know that Talbot was in the cell nearby.

Talbot coughed again, this time lunging himself forward enough from the force to jar himself awake. He instantly cringed the moment he regained his wits, and strained against his shackles to try easing the pain. Having his arms forced above him was not helping the matter in the least, and he even felt a little panic setting in from being bound like he was used to. He froze for a moment when he finally noticed Arron, and his eyes widened.
"Ah... Arron... are you all right?"

"T-Talbot..? ...Th-They got y-you too..?" he asked, "I-I'm fine... sore & tired, but okay... how is y-your shoulder?" Arron's wounds would heal with just a few days of rest, that is if they were ever let out of the cells.

"I don't recall anything past falling unconscious, but I believe Atticus took me here to be... kh....." he paused when a wave of nausea overcame him, then took a few moments to close his eyes and regain his thought process, "treated." Talbot finished before pressing his back against the dungeon wall. The less pressure he put on his shoulder, the better.
"My shoulder hurts, but it's nothing I can't bear with. I've had much harsher pain than this." he responded.

The pause worried him. Alas, Arron could do nothing but lie on the ground. He was exhausted & hoped that things would be better soon. "...It-It'll be okay..." he said, trying to remain optimistic.

"I'm... relieved you're here, to be honest. The dungeons are usually very empty due to the fact that our kingdom rarely takes prisoners. There must have been a reason that they captured you instead of killing you." Talbot said, trying to sound optimistic. He shifted his position again, forcing his arms up to keep from opening his wound further.
"Ah... but I'm not sure what this will mean. My word won't mean much, but I'll do my best to protect you..." the knight said, a determined frown on his face.

Arron shifted slightly, causing the chains to clink. He did not remember much of what happened, but he remember the initial fit of rage that started his body to crystallize. "...I-I think I-I snapped." he admitted.

"I'm not sure myself. I was hardly conscious then." Talbot frowned a little, wishing he could offer some words of comfort. It seemed they both needed comfort in that situation though.Suddenly, heavy footsteps could be heard headed their way, before a few armoured people arrived. One of them unlocked Talbot's cell, then began to undo his chains, saying nothing.
