____ Psynox emerged from the dense forest and strolled through the short grass towards the lake. The clear water stretched out before her, with its sides banked by tall redwoods and its end being lost in the distance. The wispy fog had already spread to this part of the island.
____ She stared North, past the cool, calm water. Far away past the lake, a faded image shambled along. She estimated it to be at least twenty feet tall, with four goat legs and long tentacles for arms.
____ Dammit, tired of all these trees. Can't we just take a boat? Oh I call captain!
____ Do you see a boat? We'd have to cut down trees to make a boat. That means going into the trees!
____ You're just salty 'cause I called captain.
____ A tree branch snapped.
____ Psynox spun around and gazed into a set of forty, sharp, curved teeth.
____ She leapt back and the creature's jaw snapped before her. Whatever it was couldn't have been taller than four feet. It had an oversized jaw stuffed with dagger teeth, five legs and a tail with an eyeball at the top. A fiery stream of web tangled the creature's legs and brought its huge head into the dirt. It snapped and wiggled towards her.
____ A katana covered in fire formed out of her fist. She drew forward, stepped on the tail, and severed the head of the creature.
____ The noise will attract more.
____ No kiddin'. There's a lookout tower to the East, lets do some hide n' seek.
____ They withdrew the blade and sprinted back into the forest.
____ Psynox found the lookout tower as the sun started to set. Its base consisted of a long wooden ladder, and the top was a square chamber with no roof. She estimated it to be around sixty feet tall.
____ She webbed up halfway, climbed a bit, then webbed again before reaching the chamber.
____ "Hey get out of here!" said a startled voice. "This is my spot."
____ Psynox stepped back. Laying face down on a pile of leaves and branches was a man in a tattered red cloak. He was peering through the scope of a sniper rifle, aimed into the forest.
____ "Nu-uh, you can't just call a spot!"
____ "Yes I can! This one is mine!"
____ "We saw it first!"
____ "If you saw it first, you would've seen me already in it!"
____ "Whatevs. We're not leavin' " Psynox sat onto the floor and crossed her arms.
____ The other man glared and then turned back to his sniper rifle.
____ Psynox looked around. Then she started to hum. Then she started to whistle.
____ "Can you not?" said the man.
____ "Hey whatcha doin' anyway?"
____ "Sniping stuff."
____ "Can we help?"
____ "No. Who are you anyway?"
____ "We are Psynox!" She exclaimed.
____ "I'm not deaf!"
____ "Oh sorry, what's yours?"
____ "Deadhawk."
____ "That's a stupid name," she let out a laugh.
____ "Well you have a stupid face."
____ "No you do."
____ "No."
____ "Yes."
____ "No."
____ "Yes."
____ "Stop it!"
____ They were both silent for a few minutes.
____ "So," she started. "How long ya been here for?"
____ Deadhawk glared at her. She smiled back.
____ "On the island? Three weeks. You?"
____ "Two. We felt this weird energy callin' us here ya know? Somethin' familiar. And ever since my puddin' died I've felt a little...lost."
____ "That's rough," said Deadhawk. "I found some scribbles on a crumpled up piece of paper."
____ "Oh."
____ Deadhawk turned back to the rifle.
____ "Can I crash here tonight?"
____ "No."
____ "K gnight," she fell asleep.
____ Deadhawk stared at her incredulously.
____ "I hope at least she doesn't snore."
____ She did.

____ Splash. The bear's claw swiped through the water and almost sliced through a fish, but the little thing was too nimble. The bear tried again, missed again, and then furiously splashed the water until all the fish were gone. In its rage it didn't notice the figure beside it.
____ "Rerr?" said the bear.
____ "Greetings I am Mappol. I see that you are some sort of ugly hairy man. I am Mappol. Would you like to hear a story from me, Mappol?"
____ "...rawrr." Said the bear. It shook its head and started to leave.
____ "Wait, I Mappol have a story to tell you." The figure, which the bear realized was actually made of maple wood, then started to tell a long and convoluted story.
____ The bear, becoming frantic and wanting to pee, pushed the old wooden man to the ground and then ran off into a thicket.
____ "I Mappol will rest here and wait for your return and for you to listen to the rest of my story."
____ But the bear did not return, and the old wooden man became sad.

____ The six-armed dragon stared into the mouth of the volcano before him. The lava within bubbled and oozed. Behind him lay the dead corpse of a round beast with three lion heads. It was no match for him, and the six katanas he held.
____ "This will be my base of operations! I shall regrow my empire, and the world will be mine!"
____ "Gonna be hard once I eat your eyes."
____ "What?! Who's there!? I will cut you to shreds!"
____ From the other end of the mouth, something in the fog was standing and watching the six-armed dragon. It was twenty feet tall, with arms that swirled around like red snakes. Twisting, turning and biting. Its flesh crawled and it had sharp teeth inside of a crooked smile.
____ "Hah! Snakes against blades? You don't stand a-"
____ The swirling arms shot forward into axes, then those axes split into more axes and all at once they sliced.
____ Slice, slice, slice, slice slice, slice.
____ One by one the dragon's arms fell uselessly to the ground, with the katanas still being held.
____ The dragon screamed in agony. "Agh! What are you?!"
____ A crazed, unnatural voice whispered back. "Baal-Berith."
____ The axes sliced the dragon into thirty more pieces. The snakes ate them.
~
____ The red man brought back his big fist. He had been looking for this target all night.
____ "Careful. Careful," he said as he snuck on up on his target. "Now!"
____ He leapt out of the bush and swung, but right at that moment a small boy was thrown in the way.
____ Crack!
____ The little genius was sent flying into the distance. The boy landed in a field somewhere, completely knocked out with his smashed inventions laying all around him.
____ "Ah crap."
____ The red man looked around to make sure no one saw that and then ran off towards the field to make sure the kid was alright.
~
____ The two cyborgs walked through the cave, searching for their target. The woman had pink plating and some guards on her legs. She carried a glowing pink sword in one hand, while the other was very strong looking but kept bashing his head against the ceiling.
____ "Just duck down," said the pink cyborg.
____ "Me ducked down and hit pillar."
____ "No, you lowered your head and stumbled into the pillar. There's a difference."
____ "Me sorry!"
____ "Okay, it's fine. Look there's two passages. You take the left, I take the right."
____ They split up and each went into one of the tunnels.
____ "Me gonna help. Me gonna do good." Said the strong cyborg. He followed the tunnel for some way before a noise caught his attention.
____ "Bad guy. Me gonna get him. But me have no weapon."
____ He looked around for a club and couldn't find anything.
____ "Me the strongest in cave, but me no find weapon...wait."
____ Of course. The strong cyborg grabbed his left arm and ripped it right off his body. Sparks and tiny screws shot forth.
____ "Me genius."
____ With the arm held firmly the strong cyborg ran forward and bashed the first thing out of the tunnel. The arm shattered into a dozen pieces as it slammed into the pink cyborg.
____ She hit the ground like an old toyota.
____ "Oh...me do bad..."

On the other hand, there was that silver text saying "One," which could be simply the first recruit.
One kill that left a neutral dead is a-ok with me.

Calmnic, what were you up to last night?
It's also possible that Viserion was a serial killer. Lots of swords certainly sounds more kill-y than recruit-y. Guess we'll see how the next few nights look...
With Baal-Berith in the writeup performing a kill it seems unlikely he is the cult leader at least.
Well, Viserion (just based on characters merged) doesn't seem all that town friendly to be honest, but what type of neutral he was, purely speculative at this point.
If you let them kill your dreams, it'll haunt you.

Red man with fist....hit a little boy genius instead of his target. Boy Genius was saved by inventions. Little boy genius was thrown into the Red Man's way. Busdrive? Or did the doctor choose correctly? Or both? Or inventions means the boy genius used one of his inventions to become unnightkillable and was thrown into the red man's way? Or became a doctor and saved the real target? Anyways, that seems like a good thing.
Cyborgs...he hit his own partner? No idea....
Wooden man...Pinocchio from Fables? Crossed with...no idea. Groot was already taken and I can't think of many wooden comic book characters.
Also agree that JR was not with us so his death is good.
