A world's support

[Nephrite]

"It was your own folly to not accept my offer of surrender before." Moore says, some sadness in his voice.

He turns his attention to Mythan. "As terrible as he is, I do not wish him to suffer eternally. Are you able to imprison him in some manner, Authority?"

[Anastasia]

"I don't think there's any need now," Mythal says. "The light of the sun slays vampires. What will the light of Chronias do to one?"

As he says this Learner screams, shielding his face as parts of his befouled body sizzle and burst into light. It's like little colonies of pure radiance are gathering within him, Cresiel watching at your side, shield ready.

[Nephrite]

Moore shakes his head sadly as he watches the spectacle before him. "I hope your soul, befouled as it is, can one day find peace and redemption, Learner. I will hold out hope until the final days for that very thing."

[Anastasia]

With a look of agonized fury, Learner lunges. Cresiel moves, a back hand swung to repel him. Xandra is there as well, blade out while Jetina holds her holy symbol.

Yet it is not needed.

Learner bursts into light, a scream - an unnatural sound, a howl closer to that of a vast hound - erupts from him before he collapses before Moore. In the light of Chronias and forced from a host, Learner can only scream as he is utterly incinerated by light. His entire body becomes light and then is gone.

No. Your soul will not fly back to Orcus within my light.

A moment later a portal opens - to a cell, a ghostly phantasm where Learner was glimpsed. It howls once more - dead silent this time - as it is pulled in, before the portal closes. It closes with the clang of a metal door closing.

[Nephrite]

Moore lets out a breath.

"Orcus is really not going to be happy with me." He says. "I'll have to be on my guard moreso now."

He takes in a deep breath after that as he says a silent prayer to Zaphkiel.

"Authority, thank you." Moore says as he flies down to help prop Kaja up. "This wasn't quite the pleasant meeting I had envisioned originally, but would you do me a favor and plant a new flower today in remembrance of our first meeting and in hopes that perhaps, one day, that one will see the Light?"

[Anastasia]

"I shall," Mythan says, offering his hand again. "I would stay longer, but already another needs my services. War is always hungry."

Jetina shakes her head tiredly, "What a talented fool," she murmurs, watching Learner go.

[Nephrite]

Moore shakes his hand firmly this time. "Thank you."

[Anastasia]

With that Mythan turns to leave. As he walks to a newly formed portal, he shrinks as he goes, becoming a child by the time he passes through.

Once done?

'Rest for a brief time, see to Kaja,' Barachiel sends, briefly.

[Nephrite]

Moore does indeed check on him!

"Hey, how're you feeling? I mean, besides awful." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

Kaja's answer is an eloquent groan.

[Nephrite]

"It'll be okay." Moore says. He gestures Jetina over.

"Would you mind?" He asks.

Having her use her unlimited panacea ability to help him out here.

[Anastasia]

This helps Kaja up, who rises and leans against her. "I'll be fine. Bastard's locked up where he deserves now."

"A joyous day," Xandra seconds, "One less monster to trouble Creation, even if I fear it is a charge the Authority of Wardens will not be fond of."

[Nephrite]

"Speaking of, you all did exemplary work out there." Moore says with a beaming smile. "I know we had to spend a lot of resources there, but it was absolutely worth it to get rid of someone like him."

"I was especially fond of that Sandalphon barrage." Moore says with a laugh. "Who knew it worked that way."

Moore will take the downtime to ID all of Learner's stuff, on that note, assuming he has time to do so.

[Anastasia]

How fast is IDing things for you?

[Nephrite]

The standard however long it takes to ID something, I think. He can spend 1 minute to cast Identify if needed, but I imagine it's just standard Detect Magic here.
