> Throw the pocket watch at Sakuya's good hand!
> If Sakuya fails to catch it catch with a barrier for her to pick it up

> Surround ourselves in multiple stacked demarcation barriers
> Keep up Midnight Bird

// Add quest "Impossible fights require Impossible Spellcards:  Obtain/Create Impossible Spellcards" <- We'll need these if we want to continue dealing with Makaians without risking killing them

// Secondary Quest added: Develop a rule-breaking Spellcard

> You throw the watch at Sakuya's open hand, which she catches, flicks open and presses the small thing on the side.

> "Time Sign: Private Square" she says.

You have temporarily lost control of Rumia

You now temporarily control Sakuya

Your menu is mostly locked, many options such as 'status' and 'relationships' are blocked


> You have stopped time for all living beings in the area, except for yourself. Usually, when performing this technique [not the spellcard] you'd have about eight seconds. But in your current state you doubt you can maintain it for more than five. Entering your Private Square is a massive strain on your body and energy, both of which are in poor condition.

> Still; all you should need is five seconds, you were waiting for this specific moment.

> The very crack of dawn. You're nowhere near good enough to stop time universally... but that's an advantage too.

> Do we know sealing magic?

> Can we steal her wand while time is stopped?

> Can we move Elis around while time is stopped?

> Your plan was simple, stop her retreating from the dawn. For this reason you chose to spring your trap at the very break of dawn. Even a few seconds means more sunlight upon her before she can react.

> You pretty much only have your knives, both conjured and Silver Knives [You only have 5 on you at this moment, some have been broken in battle or lost, and one is currently in the air]. Your magic is mostly focused on the timestop. The limit of what you can do during a timestop magic-wise is conjure knives and fly.

> No

> If you can pry it from her grip, a grip literally frozen in time, then yes. If her grip is loose you can probobly take it, otherwise you have no chance.

> No; Elis is frozen in time, and thus cannot be moved or harmed... although you can set things up for her to be harmed the instant time resumes. For example; when you stabbed her throat earlier you thrusted the knife right against it, and when time resumed the knife penetrated her throat immediately. Something frozen in time cannot be changed. Time being frozen means Space is frozen too.

> For the same reason, the dawn's first rays are not doing anything to Elis yet. Her Time-Frozen body cannot react to the light.

>How is our mistress? Is she okay, or is she in better/ worse condition than us?

//Out doing errands at the moment

> Remilia used up most of her stamina fighting Elis and had to retreat to the mansion along with Flandre. Turns out Vampires are very, very bad at killing each other. But even with your aid, as soon as Elis got serious... you and the Mistress were overwhelmed. Even Flandre tried to help; but she is completely unskilled in fighting and her lack of anything besides brute force was as much of a hindrance as aid.

> Conjure all the knives we can and place them so she gets stabbed the moment time resumes, so she has knives to deal with in addition to the sunshine

> See if we can slide her wand out of her grip, this shouldn't be too hard if it doesn't have any bends and is a straight line

> You conjure a large amount of knives, although significantly fewer than you usually could due to your condition. They are placed around Elis; at various angles, targeting pretty much every vital a human would have, as well as her wings.

> The vampire has a tight grip on the wand. Logical; seeing as she was in the middle of casting magic, and thus would be gripping the wand tightly. Besides, you tried doing that before while you were fighting her and it didn't work. Attempting to force it out of her hand just makes your vision go hazy and you almost faint from the effort. You know from the look that youkai gave you that you have no right to even be conscious, let alone performing a physical feat like overpowereing a vampire's grip.

> "Let time flow again" you say as you back off a little.

You have lost control of Sakuya

You have regained control of Rumia


> Huh? The sun just seemed to... jump over the horizon?

> Elis is  struck by several knives in various locations, although one aimed for her wand seems to be knocked off-course before reaching it by... something unseen. Had she been human, or even most species of Youkai, she would certainly have died. But she wasn't.

> For a brief moment, Elis looks bemused, the knife in her throat being ejected by a small gout of magic, and she smiles.

> Then all of a sudden she howls in pain, as the sunbeams of dawn make contact with her arm, which effectively bursts into flame.

> "What is this?!" she shrieks, like a bat in the night. She attempts to shield herself with her wing, but this starts turning into black smoke, holes being ripped through it by the light.

> The Scarlets were not kidding. Sunlight is really bad for Vampires!

> You start to form some barriers to try and slow her down [You are under absolutely no illusion that you can contain a vampire]. Elis starts diving directly downwards, to the cover of the treeline of the Forest of Magic.

> It is blocking most of the light from you. You're pretty senstive to light after all as you spend your life in darkness. You just don't combust.

> You declare your spellcard, putting up a bounded field just in time. The outer edge just catches the Vampire; who crashes into it.

> She immediately turns with a hellish look on her face, the grimoire in her burning arm flicking open and it's pages turning as she speaks what must be some form of Makaian.

> Elis points her wand at you, and you feel funny for a moment, before everything turns red, then black.

- YOU DIED -

Cause of death: Trapping yourself with a desperate vampire when you're a weakling [She exploded you]

- Reloading from previous successful command -

[OCC: I said I wasn't afraid of giving a bad end if something stupid happened. I think locking yourself in what equates to a cage match with Vampire desperately attempting to get out of the sunlight qualifies as 'what did you think she'd do'.

Tom's post is voided, continue from last parse.]

>"H-Hang in there, okay, Miss Sakuya?"

> "It was that Elis one again, wasn't it?" Mystia says; getting herself off the ground.

> Alice looks very serious as she stands up. "Her name was Elis? And you're sure she was a vampire?"

> Alice looks at Sakuya. "I know someone who could tend to her for sure. I frequently visit her abdode to purchase sleeping pills."

> The puppeteer makes some motions with her hands, before some dolls come out with a roll of fabric. A couple more; holding small axes; hack some larger branches off a tree and strip the smaller ones attached to it, before they quickly assemble a stretcher. Sakuya seems to try and protect as more dolls lift her onto it, but she hardly seems conscious by this point.

> Make a large demarcation barrier around everyone in case Elis tries to strike back

// Sidequest add: Plot revenge against Elis
> Murmur "Don't expect the leniency Mayina saw when I tell Yumeko who's after the grimoire"

> Alice is awake. As you are setting up barriers, she speaks. "If what you have told me is correct, you won't need to worry about that. The combination of daylight and the spell breaking probobly means Elis fled back to Makai. We'll be safe from her, at least until nightfall."

> "Healing magic is not something I can skilled in. Besides, as much as Miss Izayoi may claim to be human, I don't quite know how to treat someone of her kind." Alice says.

> Mayina hears you mutter [You figure his large; pointed ears are not just for show]. "That's more like how you should treat your enemies." he says, just loud enough for you to hear.


> Sakuya groans on the makeshift stretcher. "The Youkai is right. The enemy is a Vampire called Elis."

> Alice frowns. "I heard about a Vampire with a Star-Shaped birthmark on the Council. I never met her, but she was best described as... difficult and rowdy. She hardly showed any interest in running Makai, or what few rules the Daemons set themselves, and mostly just kept pushing for wars. Vampires as a species are Greater Deamons who specifically adapted to  be almost unstoppable war machines, able to even create their own armies of Thralls and vampire-like beings from other races. They would boast one Vampire could conquer a planet. In fact it wasn't unusual for them to open rifts to other worlds and cause havoc for fun, spreading their infections and killing." the girl explains. "It wouldn't surprise me if that's what happened to create the Scarlets."

> "That would explain Miss Remilia's reaction to Elis." Mystia says.

> "Most of them were killed or imprisoned in Hokkai after they tried to take over Paradise before I was born however. Invasions like those they used to do were banned, and they revolted. If Elis is that Vampire Councillor... she might be the one behind it all. It even fits with what the Vampires did in the past." Alice continues.

> Mayina grunts. "Even as far as daemons go, Vampires are considered vile."

> "There are always exceptions, of course." Alice states. "But unless there's two Vampires in Makai with star-shaped marks... it would seem Elis is not one of them."
