Titans took their positions opposing one another. Both Avatars of their allotted gods and symbols to their respective sides in this grand war they were now waging. Their bodies, just like those that were under them, had each been irrevocably changed thanks to the struggle that they waged against one another. Neither side was willing to back down and simply accept that their side of death was indeed the death that they were seeking.
Such was really a struggle in a war. Fools assumed that their enemy would not go into great lengths to try and save themselves from the coming trials that they endured, thus leaving themselves surprised when failing to realize that both sides would try their damndest to achieve victory.
This realization struck the two Titans, two Gods of the Battlefield. But in the end one side needed to capitulate.
Dies Irae was the first to run forward as the blood god spoke into its sensors its desire for blood. Now a slave to such dark forces the Titan could only oblige its new sovereign whatever desires he had. Such was the tithe pulled by the Dies Irae as it sold its own soul to such foul powers.
It brought its hard steel hand over for a slash at Particep Semper’s head. A quick and simple blow that would have ended the life of both the Omnissiah and Particep Semper if the Loyalist Titan had not brought its weapon up to defend against the incoming strike. Sparks the side of men flew around as the claw scraped itself against the mystically reinforced stock of the Omnissian Axe.
Particep Semper quickly retaliated with the bottom of the staff coming up and striking the headpiece of the Dies Irae. Such a powerful strike should have killed whoever was acting as Princeps outright but the Dies Irae simply took the shot without having its skull sent across the plains. With the momentum of industrial equipment the Traitor brought its Plasma hand over and tried to strike one of the two arms which allowed Particep Semper to so skillfully wield the Omnissian Axe.
Knowing he could not lose his limb Particep Semper dug down and accepted a strike to his carapace. When the Dies Irae realized its claw was only go so far into the flesh of Particep Semper it yanked hard, bringing one of the Volcano Cannons which decorated the carapace.
But as the Dies Irae tried to return to rest, it found that one of its feet could not move.
