------------------------------------------------------------
I continued to dodge the endless assault aimed at me, struggling to dodge each attack, my stupidity had been my own outdoing. The night king had the terrain advantage on this duel, his ice powers were feeding off the terrain. Making his attacks exponentially stronger than they were supposed to be.
Each attack was stronger than the last, leaving a trail of destruction behind, I had no idea for how long I would be able to continue dodging, I knew that I had to retreat, it was more than obvious that if I stayed fighting on his domain, I would die, and dying was no at option.
"Having problems?" The dark echoing voice of the night king asked, as he continued his deadly assault.
Not at all," I answered, as I dodged a spike of ice that was about to pierce my leg, "This is nothing but a good workout," I lied.
The strain I had been until now putting on my muscle was starting to show, my arms and legs were screaming in pain, agony. I had never worked them out to such extent, and the worst part was. that if I was feeling pain it meant the runes were starting to go off, and the moment that boost I had gained thanks to the runes disappeared I would with certainty die.
The wall was around a mile and a half away, meaning that if I took a run for it, I would be able to reach the wall within the minute, that was, of course, taking into consideration the current physical boost the runes were giving me.
Dodging three spikes, all aimed at my vitals, I blasted towards the wall, deciding I had all the information about the Night King I needed, and a general idea of how to defeat him. Staying any longer was not a good idea.
"Going back so soon?" The night king asked, speeding up his attacks, "You can't leave the party yet"
Creepy motherfucker "I'll invite to my own party later." for now fuck you.
The closer I got to the wall. the slower my movements got little by little the shining rune in my hand started to glow less and less, and the pain that it was holding. started to spread, invading every corner of my body.
This sudden decline of physical prowess allowed the Night King to start connecting attacks that I was now barely dodging, making sure no vital areas were struck, but that didn't mean getting pierced in the legs, arms and other parts of my body was not painful.
"Feeling a bit down?"
I looked at the night king, who was walking towards me with an evil grin he was enjoying my suffering at least before he became this asshole he was just following his purpose, he wasn't truly evil before now, he was, "Fuck you," I spat as I struggled to stand up, cursing my situation I was but a few dozen meters from the wall so close, yet so far away.
"I told you didn't I? I cannot be defeated"
*I will end you!!! * Neltharion roared, shattering the ice cold floor beneath his claws.
[Melisandre POV]
Ronard was not alive and not dead, he was between the two worlds, I could feel it, the fire within him was weak, but it was there.
"There has to be something you can do please," Daenerys cried, "I don't care the price,"
I better than anyone understood her pain, "I I have already asked the lord to bring him back, now all we have to do is wait,"
For once I begged my god with all my heart as I saw Ronard's broken body, "All we can do is wait,"
[Ronard Mormont POV]
Darkness what a stupid end I died and I didn't even make my demise worth something.
No! Fuck this! I refuse to die! "God of fucking nothing! Bring me back!"
I will
Huh that was fast, and anticlimactic, "Thanks,"
You acted rash. You let him win you were stupid
"I was." there was no point of denying it I was overconfident, and this was the price.
But so was the night king. for as long as an ember remains the fire will always come back... stronger than before
