Before Raquel's blade illuminated the darkness, there was another blonde-haired young swordsman destined to save the world. Claude's Eternal Sphere holds the power of the universe in its hilt, and packs enough punch to level mountains in a single stroke. Yet, it's not his weapon of choice against the Sinistral of Chaos. Opting instead for the holy-aligned Aura Blade, Claude exploits Amon's one weakness - nasty Holy-aligned physicals. Ensign Kenni's got just that. Mirror Slice's power is enough to make even Indalecio quiver in dread. One shot of Claude's strongest attack backed by the power of light... well.. we all saw how little Amon liked tasting a swing of the Dual Blade.

The true rise of the Sinistrals has begun! While they may have failed in the past in conquering the world or whatever the incredibly evil, monstrous and foul Sinistrals wanted to do with their lives at that time of the month, this time shall be different! Mostly because Amon is actually pretty competent in the Arena, and despite his inability to take down a random red-haired guy and his wife, he can actually fend for his own without trouble. Space marines? Pfft, surely you jest. Maxim was the chosen one! Claude, on the other hand, is a fairly average guy. Crushing this random blonde ditz with sharp spear strikes won’t be a big deal, right? Some delicious physical spamming later, and Claude will be crushed into a fine paste - just like most things.

The cruel demon.
There are so many cliches about these things, aren't there?
I mean, Amon clearly had no chance, right?

"Oh, come on, sweety, let's get you all dressed up!" Amon happily yelled, from within his neon pink clothing, as he chased the frantically fleeing Claude around the arena.
"...Erim. Tell me again. How drunk did you get Amon?" Gades asked in an undertone, as he watched the pink, prissy and frilly Amon rush around the arena.
Erim silently gestured to a point around five feet above her head, using her spear.
"And how much did you use of the brainwashing drugs?"
Erim gestured slightly lower.
"And...why?"
"Boredom, mostly. We never get to do anything fun." Erim said, with a sigh. "Well, I do, but it's still pretty rare."
"Well, seeing as how Claude seems to have finally come to his senses and started stabbing your fellow Sinistral, it seems you have succeeded." Gades answered, annoyed. "You have made a mockery of all we stand for and horrendously humiliated, not to mention engineered the defeat of, one of your own kind. Don't you have anything to say for yourself?"
"Punish me and all the narccisists will come after you." Erim noted boredly.
