(Concluded) CONTEST! Bloodless Battle

The only two left standing in the room are yugosalkins and midnightcastlelurker . Midnight hesitates, but Yugo's rage knows no delay. The red fog in his mind forces defeat upon Midnight.

It is then that the shards glow intensifies until it's a bright red radiance. Every drop of blood is pulled into a vortex and into the crystal. The shard impales Yugo.

Regaining his senses, Yugo looks around the chamber with little memory of the carnage that only moments ago took place here. Not a speck of blood remains. All those who have fallen begin to stir. They eventually rise, confused and trying to recall how they could turn on one another so easily.

The battle is over. yugosalkins is the victor, but one must wonder what sinister power he must have claimed while influenced by the demoness. Part of her is now with him always, and this man who is also beast obviously has other struggles with his own humanity.

This concludes our adventure my friends. I hope you had fun, and realize this is meant to bring us together more than it is about what rewards or curses that were bestowed. Have you made new friends?
