What Mashyuu didn't understand was that the storm wasn't meant to move him - it was meant to stop him and his stone constructs which it did with flying colours. His own hubris was a help in the factor of stopping his movement for the moment - for just enough time to prepare for her attack on him. He used more mana in the creation of his earth wall and his sand twister - it was draining him further so that he wouldn't be prepared for the attack she had up her sleeve - it was actually quite hilarious that Mashyuu couldn't see past her current actions to the steps in the future that she had already planned out ahead of him. Narya quickly brought her hand outwards, the long slender spear returning to her grasp as a pair of black wings formed around her in protection as the sand twister made it's way - anchoring herself to the ground via the spear which she impaled hard into the ground. and consumed some left over Cloud Golem to restore some bit of her mana. The remaining three golems now took the opportunity to charge at Mashyuu from the sand - one from his right, one from his left, and one straight ahead in an attempt to bash him with their huge fists. Only moments later, the goddess could be seen leaving the twister not much worse for wear.
"Sky God Chariot!" Held in one hand was that spear which she had, thrusting it out in tandem with the attcks form the golems. Something was different, however, about Narya - the confidence and indifference in her eyes were replaced with conflict. Barreling forward still, the woman was so surrounded in a swath of black winds which formed a dragon around the spearhead as it rushed for Mashyuu to strike him square in the chest, hopefully. Her accuracy was top notch and her speed renewed by the godly power - that single red eye bearing down on him. At the last moment, however, it went shy and struck at his left shoulder instead.
Within Luna's mind, there had been a battle worming it's way through, on one side the form of Narya - cracks in her armor and her helmet on the ground in fragments yet no real damage on her body. On the other side was Luna, blood welling from her lip and forehead with a spear blade sticking through the hy-brasil of her mechanical arm at the palm and all the way through. Luna quickly reached up and pulled the spear blade out of her arm as she faced the woman with a grin. Curls of black wafted in the wind as she charged across the cracked embers of the terra towards the bitch. As they came together, Luna's hard elbow hit the corrupted goddess hard in the ribs and then whirled around into a crescent kick to knock her in the air, receiving a headbutt from the woman as she did so which made her stagger back.Luna roared loudly in defiance, "You may try to mimic me, BUT YOU CAN'T BE ME! SKY GOD DROP!"
With this, Luna barreled up into the sky overhead the goddess and with a strong leg, kicked her back down to meet the ground with a thunderous applause that resulted in a crater underneath. It was at this very moment that the spear in the real world had moved to the left shoulder of Mashyuu. Luna could see what was happening in the world of reality, the sky itself showing these events. The corrupt goddess stood to her feet once more, though visibly wounded as she spat up blood. no words were shared beyond the two - it was damn well past time for that. Luna's right arm raised as dark winds stirred once more... "Sky..... God LARIAT!"
The two dashed to meet each-other, Luna with her arm held out horizontally to the side and the corrupted goddess with her spear (good as new). As they met, there was a titanic release of energy as a dark falcon and a black dragon clashed in the ground, but ultimately, in the end, there was more riding on Luna's side than on the other woman's and so she had won out in the titanic struggle. The hellscape had been significantly altered, now more resembling a serene grassland. The woman spoke now, her form vanishing little-by-little with golden particles. "You have done well, my daughter. I needed to test you to ensure that you were ready to receive the power of your ancestor. I can't stay long, but you will find me on Akuma... you will need to confront your father, Irithiel."
Almost as immediately as she had strick with the spear, it vanished leaving no impact on Mashyuu regardless of whether it hit or not. A burst of golden energy released from the form of Luna as the physique and appearance vanished and returned Luna to normal. At the same time, the three of them would feel their energy and vigor restored. As for any remaining Cloud Golems, they were now gone - dispersed. All that was left was a weakened and visibly wounded Luna drawn to her knees. She seemed to be bloodied along her lip and a wound on her chest. she was alive, and awake, smiling to Mashyuu.
""Thank you, Mashyuu. Couldn't have done it without the two of you. Now, if you could help me up"
