"I can admit that I've changed, and I'm still changing. I mean I'm not a fool, I know that Loki is guiding me now..." he began before taking a bite from a now deceased animal. It was pretty large with three horns. He didn't exactly know what kind of animal it was, but it would suffice. "This power though, this power will save Skaal. Who I become doesn't matter if my people are able to prosper for generations to come, right?" he asked the dragon after chewing and swallowing the raw flesh. Today Val learned that animal flesh wasn't as good as human flesh, but it'd been a couple of days since he felt unable to control his hunger. It seemed he had gained control over Fenrir's hunger. "Perhaps I'm still worthy of entering Valhalla." He shrugged.

Despite speaking in Icebergan, he was sure that the giant black dragon laying beside him could understand him. After all, she had come from Iceberg was bound to him by fate. Vali leaned against a boulder, resting as he gazed into the sky. It was bright and blue. Clearer than ever. If he was deaf, he could have ignored the world. The young Jarl was away from the town of Era, yet he could still hear creatures and other wandering people in the distance. In fact, he was right at the border between this town and Magnolia. It was safer then being at the border between Era and Crocus. Since Crocus was the home of this country's royalty, it was probably better protected then the rest of the country. At least magnolia wasn't as important. The red headed Viking looked over at his Wyvern, extending a hand before petting her.

"My people will likely think that I have lost mind." He began in Val'Elvarin. In a slightly disappointed tone he vented to his steed. The Viking never was fluent in the elven language and it'd show to another elf. "Aye, maybe I have eh?...Or maybe I'm just the only one strong enough to bare the burdens that come with being Jarl." He said in the common tongue. With a chuckle he dropped his hand from the sable beast's head and looked forward. Once again he took another chunk from the animals leg. "Now where is Konstantin?" he asked aloud. It was rhetorical really. His nose could smell the man around him. Why was he here today? Because apparently this was a test of his abilities. He had met Konstantin before. It was back when he had red hair and the world had only just started going to shit.

A few days ago he caught up with the mysterious man again. Now would be his third time meeting him, and finally witnessing a bit of his abilities. Vali had grown since their first encounter as well so this was exciting.

And there he was. The man himself; Konstantin. The most god-like mortal Vali had ever encountered besides his mother- if he even was mortal. Similarly to Kon, Vali himself was a godly being. He could use the energy from Satri itself, whereas Kon's powers came from his god. The question was; was the power of Satri enough. Now that he wielded the power of Fenrir, he was stronger than ever before. The Jarl, glanced up only when his Wyvern lifted herself. She cawed at the incoming Vessel but never left Vali's side. Konstantin's ship did nothing to phase him. The red headed Viking looked directly into the Nephilim's eyes before connecting both his fists together. They were equals regardless of who the victor is.  

Vali's eyes beheld a holy power. Almost shocked, his eyes widened slightly. The viking had heard tales of angels roaming the land but never had he encountered one. Could Kon have been just that? The mighty Viking lord kept his cool, as usual. Really he could have choked up at any minute but then he'd look weak. Suddenly he twitched with a smirk. Just knowing that someone like Konstantin was on his side made him feel...powerful. The two had already been well acquainted. Their relationship had potential to become dangerous for the world- at least during their quests.

As the flying Ship stopped, a magic circle formed under the Jarl causing a vibrant gold aura to engulf him and allowing him to float. He levitated about 5 feet into the air with his legs crossed, smirking at his ally and prey. The one eyed angel made quite the entrance, facing the Jarl with sheer confidence. "Aye." Vali responded to the compliment. "That is a nice ship." he said gently. His voice carried a cold tone, frosty but not completely frozen. Although Val had gone through some serious changes, he was still genuine and deep down inside he was still... good.

It seemed like his opponent was anxious to begin. He asked if there was anything to discuss, his tone was much colder and almost bored really. However, The Desiertan took no offense. Instead he dropped his legs, still sustaining his flight ability but leveling with his opponent. "You are eager." The Titan flew 15 meters away from his new enemy. With the thick roots of the trees around them, along with Kon's ship acting as a wall behind him they stood in what could be seen as a 15 x 15 meter ring.

"Well...shall we begin then?" Val would ask gripping his dagger. His armor was fitted on him, fit for a leader. His cape lightly flapped in the wind. Super Hero Vali, he was. He could already tell that this fight would be intense- at least for him. Fighting his hardest was probably his safest bet for the best results. The goal was to see Konstantin on his A game afterall.

The Viking Lord turned and faced his opponent. Ready to begin as he took his fighting stance. Konstantin didn't waste another moment as he lifted his golden arm. Immediately Val could tell that his item was something majestic. It was dangerous and he'd have to watch it very carefully. Suddenly Kon brought his arm forward and at the same time Vali lifted his own arm. However, the angel was still able to catch the Titan in his fiery explosion. Vali however, could tolerate this surprisingly low level of pain. At the same moment the fire engulfed his body, the Viking threw his fist forward.

A large blast would be released as he used one of his strongest spells currently. As his hand jabbed forward, he would jolt back to move himself out of the flames. Fortunately for him just as he moved back another fiery explosion occurred. This one happening just in front of him. The Desiertan found himself technically "Out of bounds" if this were some sort of tournament. Luckily it wasn't. Although he was out of the arena formed by their surroundings, he escaped taking more damage. That second blast could have been a bit more poweful.

Whether Kon would be caught by Vali's quick attack- which would reach him immediately after the second flame- or not, the fight would continue. The young Lord would Jet into the air up to five meters where he'd wait for his opponent. With all his senses focused on his opponent, he was ready to react to everything. The two would fight in the sky like otherworldly entities.  

"We are like gods, aye?" He said with a devilish smirk.

Vali was ready to show this man just what he was about. Of course, on paper, he was much stronger. His magical energy was stronger, his gear was more elite but it wasn't about what you had or what you could do, it was about how you use it or how you do it. Kon was obviously confident in his abilities but Vali was a warrior. He had no doubt in his mind that he could actually give Konstantin a challenge, and that meant Konstantin wasn't as strong as he liked to believe. Despite knowing little about his abilities, he was not intimidated. The man before him stated that he was ready as well and so the battle would commence- or at least it should have.

Something happened though. Before Vali could jet forward, Konstantin had stopped to cough. It sounded like he was dying for a second. Illness was frequent back home, so Vali could tell when something was a simple cold or something worse. To make matters worse, Konstantins wings hardly flapped. They were struggling to keep him afloat, or maybe he was just getting weaker? Still the angel hadn'tbacked down. Dammit he thought. With a sigh he crossed his arms. "Look at you. You are like a dying eagle. I can not fight you in this condition." He stated. Val was concerned for his ally's health. "That cough does not sound normal." Vali would slowly descend, deactivating his flight spell and landing gently.

If his partner had done the same, he'd quickly move to him, lightly placing his hand on his back. "You need to see a healer..."
