Garian + Claire -
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
The girl kicks wildly at you when you yell at her, obviously enraged and terrified at the same time. When you stop your spell suddenly (injuring the unarmed, Garian -10 alignment) she calms down a bit, but shoots daggers at Claire. Untying the gag is necessary, but you sort of regret it as she spits a hot bolt of saliva directly into Garian's face not even a split second later.
"You fucking monsters!" she shouts in a clear and hateful voice, summing up your recent actions pretty well. Not so neutral now, are you?
"Don't presume to know anything about me! Now untie me! You have no privilege to know anything!" she demands, fighting with her bindings. Really, she's kind of right. Not only is her will strong, you've given her a lot of reason to not tell you shit.
Salyndra -
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
Unable to defend themselves, your victim is ripped apart by your sword and you feel a mass of Soul Essence flow into you almost immediately (+50 SE). They urk and fall back to the ground in a pool of blood (homicide, Salyndra -25 alignment) and you feel rejuvenated by the Soul Essence. You repeat the process twice more (+100 SE) but find the last one is already dead and useless to you.
The black dragon has taken to the sky, with the two newcomers on its back! Are they friends or something? You see the Soul Essence filled chalice is in the hands of the pink haired girl, but it would be difficult for you to attack her considering it looks like the black dragon is about to incinerate with the entire fortress with a breath of fire after dodging some ballista bolts that come from a group of ballista nearby, where a familiar figure stands.
Just as you and everything within 100 yards of you woulda been torched, however, you see the black dragon simply pull off and begin to head north, with the white dragon in lazy pursuit in the sky.
All around you, you can hear the sizzling of flames and the odd crash as damaged buildings cave in. It now seems very... empty. Did everyone get killed?
The figure by the ballistas stomps her feet against the ground.
"Bloody, bloody, bloody, bloody! Thwice 'amn dwagons killed me entire party! Aaaaaghhhhh!" Reila screams slamming her feet against the ground and hitting the ballista, her face red. She might have been a good leader, but she sure as hell knew how to throw a temper tantrum.
"I need uh new 'amn fort now! And dis time I ain't lettin' dwagons in! she huffs, calming down after a long minute.
Looks like it's just you and her here. Or so you think. Jegen appears from behind a wrecked stable and coughs, covered in soot which falls off him as an enchantment over his clothes cleans him with magic.
"Oh, my...you're alive. Good to see. Everyone else is gone, though." he observes, stepping over to you. Reila eventually walks over to you and sees what you did to the priest.
"Ya, whateva...they got me chawice, dat dey most cer-tan-lee did. I need dat back." Reila pouts.
"We have more relevant problems. But I say we get out of here. Escape route's still working and I know where to go." Jegen suggests.
"Ya. Whatcha say, salty? Come 'wit us?" Reila questions you. It occurs to you that this girl's father has a lot of money and a lot of Soul Essence. Maybe it'd be a good idea...?
Vivienne -
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
"Dogboy" really doesn't seem to mind the nickname (in fact he probably thinks it's a sign you like him judging from the look on his face) but he takes the time to introduce himself after casting a spell to manipulate the wind so it's not blowing in your faces, making it far easier to see, hear and talk.
"My name is Ciernen, and I'm a demon." Ciernen introduces himself in as suave a voice as possible.
Hiiiiii, Cierneeeeen!
You hear a second, female voice inside your head just as Nilgalos looks over her shoulder with a massive eye. Is that her!? Well, it answers your question, at least.
"...but you can call me Cier. And yes, she talks. A lot." Cier says.
I see you don't like his scent, chalice bearer. Why not!? He gets it from his father, y'know...it's like candy. Nilgalos says. Cier chuckles a bit in embarrassment.
And you! Nilgalos adds in the direction of Cier, You didn't want me to come and help. That's why you didn't say 'hi!' she declares. Cier gulps and rubs the back of his neck.
"S-sorry...so um, yeah, hey, about where we're going..." Cier tries to change the subject.
Nilgalos snorts. We're going to the Tear Stone Castle near Marche. It was formerly an elf castle, but we redecorated. You'll get your reward there, chalice bearer. And don't worry about my BFF, she'll give up after a while. Nilgalos says in reference to Talphalos, who is flying along behind her with a look of distaste. Below you, the endless expanse of trees simply fly by and the evening sun is visible over the horizon. It's incredibly scenic. You wonder what it'd look like from a distance, with the two mighty dragon(ettes) alongside each other in the sky.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):
Skylia yelps when you slap her, leaving a red mark that rapidly fades. She begins to panic, but holds onto her traditional virtues, obviously horrified by your behavior and vulgar words. Seriously. Even I couldn't think up a worse way to introduce myself to a friggin' Angel!
"No! I will never submit!" she cries, wincing at the sight of your cock. Angels are usually celibate and nearly all of the females don't know the first thing about sex, so it's no surprise that she actually lingers on it with a confused look when you reveal it to her.
"Human, please! Reconsider what you are doing! You have nothing to gain from this but pain!" she reasons, turning her head away. Seems she still has a bit of strength to resist.
Her threat may be desperate, but something in the back of your mind tells you she'll act somehow on it no matter your dominant position over her right now. She is an Angel after all. Better watch out...
Jered -
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
Your dream is a literal nightmare, but knowing that this is all happening in reality only makes it much more worse. There's a burning desire to wake up, to do something, but it feels like you're trapped in here by magic. In the real world, your body stirs only a bit, still trapped in unconsciousness.
There is a strange sight in the red skies above you, one that you can't recall from your dream. An exceptionally large bird, perhaps a falcon or a massive eagle like one would find in these mountains, with large wings and silky feathers shifting from shades of gray to white, to black and back to gray in an endless cycle. It makes no noise as it flies about just a few dozen feet above you. You see its beady and sharp eyes shift color like a rainbow, and as it turns notice a strange sigil in its feathers that you can recall distantly from some work on theology, but can't put your finger on what.
Skylia's head lolls about as she sits defeated on her knees, still confronting the figure. From her mouth, desperation comes.
"Human, please! Reconsider what you are doing! You have nothing to gain from this but pain!"
The bird above you squawks, but its cry is so loud it pierces your ears and makes the clouds in the sky roll and shift color as if there were just a massive but invisible explosion of energy.
