::He quickly pulled his trusty dagger from his boot and thrusted it up into his torso. He jumped back to his feet, knowing that he only had minutes to live, but damn him if he wouldn't fight to the death::

Death would stagger back, the dagger sticking into Anduin's torso. A cruel laugh would escape Anduin's lips as he pulled out the knife and tossed it aside: You think a knife to the torso would stop me, Drako? That was simply foolish. Oh well, now you die!: Anduin's right hand would be held palm open towards Drako, and a black lightning bolt would slam into Drako. The dark energy would slowly suck away Drako's life energy.

::He knew this feeling. The life creeping out of him. He wasn't scared, if this was his destiny then he accepted it...didn't exactly welcome it...but he wouldn't go against the will of the gods. He pulled another dagger from inside the studded leather armor. He looked up to death and smiled...and spoke softly:: Just know that I stared you in the face without fear when you took me......You tell them I tried....::His last breath was taken after that. There he was, the prince turned exile turned castle guard turned body guard of the queen, lying dead with a little grin on his face and a weapon in his hand::

As Death watched Drako die, an odd feeling filled Death. He was filled wth respect for this man, this royal guard of GoldenMyst, who felt no fear, even at the moment he died, he felt no fear. Death would take Drako's soul and absorb it into himself. Before he could turn away though, a small tear would be seen sliding down Anduin's right cheek. the tear would drop to the ground, and would change into a tear-shaped diamond, which glowed brightly. Death would then walk away, feeling his power grow as the body of the guard lay there, the undead surrounding it, not to feed on the flesh though. They were to guard the body, until Drako's friends came for it.

::The two guards had followed Drako from the castle, keeping themselves out of sight. At first, they were hesitant to near the undead, but after seeing that they weren't acting hostile after seeing them, they went to the body and picked it up. They carried Drako back to the castle on their shields::

She had watched in the shadows, closing her eyes for a moment as Drako died. Shaking her head she would sigh a moment, but silently to herself. She didn't know what to do.. what was going on. Hell she didn't know how to respond to the death of Drako. She hadn't know him.. she wasn't his friend, but they were in the same kingdom.. the same lands.
As the gaurds would take Drakos body away she would slowly make her way towards the tear drop. Leaning down she would pick it up.. Would it be useful to help her for the upcoming destruction of Death? She smiled.
Soon.. she thought.. she would let all of her own evils out of her body.. and it would battle Death. Her own evil was that of a grim dark green dragon. One hidden so deep in her heart, not even the deepest of wounds could awaken her.
No. She wasn't ready for that, she would let things be, and soon she would find out what to do. Tucking the tear shaped diamond away she would turn, turn away to go consult with someone.. someone she hadn't talked to in awhile.

What Angel did not realize was that the crystal tear drop that she held in her hand was the pure essence of Anduin's soul, which escaped Death's body when Death was caught off guard. Though Drako would never know, he had indeed given others hope in finding a way to defeat Death.
As Death neared the river, he felt his power swell, Drako's soul being filled with great energy. The dark aura surrounding Anduin's body grew darker, becoming a shroud of shadows, literally hiding him from the most powerful of mages. As night fell, Death would cross the river, passing by the guards, then would envelop them in dark spheres, stealing their souls from their bodies while leaving their bodies wholly intact. A chuckle would escape Anduin's lips as he turned the guards into the undead, leaving them as a surprise for the next person who crosses the bridge:

After being in the room where Drako's dead body laid, He walked out to the courtyards. He looked up into the sky and sighed softly. "Odin, take care of him. If he wishes, let him be part of our kingdom." He looked ahead and shook his head slightly. He couldn't be around since the sadness was about to over take him. He lost his best freind, and his daughter just a couple of weeks before Drako's death. Slowly he started moving out from the courtyards into the forest. He had his Arc of Fire, and his Ark of Lightling on him. Which were on his back, one sheath pointing to the ground, the other to the sky. Since he gave Drako his katana, he was left using one that his sword-master made for him. It was called Merciful Soul. The secrets hidden within this sword was unknown. Syn just thought it was a regular katana.

Death would be a days' journey from GoldenMyst when he would stop, looking up into the sky as he felt his power decrease. He would stagger slightly, his hands going to his chest as he dropped to one knee, dark magicks pouring from him as he realized what was going on. : Drako, your soul is mine, stop trying to escape me!: He would use his powers to bind Drako's soul, pulling it back towards him before sealing it within Anduin's body, forming a dark cage around it. Anduin would slowly stand up, Death's powers returning to him as he slowly stands, black robes flowing around him as he would then continue his journey....

He felt something of a dark power around the forest. His body looked from right to left. "Its here.." he said softly, his body moving quickly around the forest. Those hues would slowly narrow down as he felt himself getting closer and closer to this dark power. He stoped a couple of feet away from the river. His head tilted and looked from side to side. "I might need help in this one..."
