Yeah because I definitely did that >_>

And in other circles, it seems the children spoke out against Aura Guardian's folly specifically.
I'm just gonna say here not to take everything in my flavor at face value.
_____Night falls and the chase begins. Xavier Yates and those following him come upon the entrance to a strange forest. The forest is filled with fog, further obscuring vision in addition to the cover of darkness. An old wall surrounds the forest, though a decrepit broken down gateway provides entrance. Sammy Yeoman warns that perhaps Zeke Leroy is not dead after all, and that this may be a false death ploy designed to lure Carl Wayne into defeat.
_____"Or perhaps, knowing that he'd die, he faked a false death ploy so you wouldn't take the advantage!" yelled Lenny Danes, as he charged into the forest with Carl Renton in tow. Xavier Dunlop and Zach Heath exchange confused looks, but run after the two to stop them. Part way into the forest, enemy soldiers from both SuperHands and EasternWoods begin to block off the few recognizable trails, and what was a dark forest becomes a maze. In doing so, Zeke Leroy plays the last gambit of his life, his Eight Heavenly Gates strategy.
_____Lenny Danes turns around, realizing that he needs to regroup with the others. However, as he turns around he feels a sharp pain in his back side. He looks down to see a sword skewered through his right ribcage, and looks behind him to get a short glance at Sam Juan himself before dying. Meanwhile, Grant Yuma's army arrives from behind Xavier Yates.
_____Cain Moss, whose fleet was going elsewhere on an unrelated mission, suddenly received a message from a swift craft. It was from the emperor himself, and it said that Cain Moss's commander was in trouble and needed his help. It could have been a ploy, and it kinda looked like Sammy Yip's handwriting, but Cain Moss turned his boats around headed towards the forest.
_____Far away at Ye, Juan Shane knows of the join effort between SuperHands and EasternWoods, and he knows of Donald Leon's efforts to save Xavier Yates. "I cannot understand," he says, "Xavier Yates is one of the greatest threats to Donald Leon, why would he interfere?" Regardless, Juan Shane began to draft an order that would send his own fleet to stop Cain Moss.
_____Grant Yuma himself eventually showed up to fight Xavier Yates. Carl Renton made his way out of the forest and charged at Grant Yuma, but was swiftly disarmed and pushed aside as if nothing. "Don't worry, I'll protect you!" suddenly a man as fearsome and strong as Grant Yuma arrived, Dane West. With his mighty axe against Grant Yuma's guan dao, the two were evenly matched.
_____After many bouts however, Graham Nye leaped over the walls and tackled Dane West. He was a much smaller man, but a swift and capable fighter and he only needed to distract Dane West long enough for Grant Yuma to make his kill. As Grant Yuma stared down Xavier Yates, the battle seemed over when suddenly, "Sir! Cain Moss has attacked our camp from the riverside!" Grant Yuma orders a retreat, swiftly departs.
_____What of the order to stop Cain Moss? It never left Juan Shane's desk, and was soaked in blood. "Xavier Yates may be a threat," said an ominous figured steeped in shadows, pulling a monstrous halberd out of Juan Shane's limp body, "But he wasn't the greatest threat."

_____And as Donald Leon called in another virgin maiden to satisfy his hedonism, the children across the land began to sing of the Battle of the Eight Heavenly.
Eight Heavenly Gates, Supe's sacrifice
But the loss for all sides was giant
Even Juan Shane paid his price
The only winner that day was a tyrant
_____And in other circles, it seems the children spoke out against Aaron Guardi's folly specifically.
Aaron Guardi you best be warned
Evil in the hearts of good has borne
To make your days as numbered 3.
To save your life, go seek the key.
For if you don’t, your souls will fall
Empty and alone you’ll crawl
To my feet for my forgiveness
So please go stop my pernicious ways.
