Makes sense to me)
Valex claw slammed into the barrier as it was raised and started to constrict around it. Slowly he raised his left arm as it also turned into a claw. After reeling back he launched it towards the barrier, his tail joining long side it.

Without a second thought, Luna shifts into her wolf form and charges down the hallway. She feared that something had happened to her children! Could this be some means of petty revenge by Valkner? If any harm came to her kids, she would murder that elf!
"Your eyes." Hawke says as he points to his eyes. "Your eyes looked like the wolves from the stories!" Hawke leaves his hiding spot to go over to him.
Rye gives Diantha a quick nod before darting to the side before racing towards Valex. He mutters something under his breath before sending magical vines to wrap around Valex.

Jay watched as Luna shifted to her wolf form and ran ahead of him. The king thought about shifting as well hut if this required commanding the actions of the mages and knights it was far easier to do so as a human. He continued running as fast as he could.
Nova's eyes widened. "Huh? They were?" He said, still apparently surprised and confused.
As Rye distracted the boy in front of them, Diantha continued to recite her spell. "The darkest realms have no place here. The artifacts of the evil render useless-" as she continued to speak and concentrate, the stone in her fingers swirled and turned to a black color. "-from the distant dins of the void, I call upon the light to ensnare and contain the wicked. Now, Black Artifact Anterous, be contained!" She recited. She knew what the artifact being used on this young boy was, though it had been thought lost or stolen since ages ago. As she finished, the magic stone in her fingers broke with a loud BOOM and summoned a translucent containment field around Valex.

As the vines and barreir trapped him the extended claws were severed, falling to the ground and dissipating. While in the field the black magic started to spread over his body until, new larger claws forming on his arms to snap the vines. Now able to move the controlled Valex to start beating on his container with claws and tail.

Rye straightens up and slowly starts towards Valex. He keeps his staff raised in case the boy somehow breaks out. He really didn't know what to do at the moment except to keep everyone safe.
Hawke nods his head. "Does this mean you could turn into a wolf?" He questioned. Hawke knew their family were werewolves but they told minor details and stories about the beasts.
Luna slides to a halt once she reaches the hallway. She stares in shock at the rubble and bodies before her. What surprised her even more was Valex in a portal with Rye and Diantha nearby. Luna turns her attention to the triplets room and races into the room. This causes Hawke to leap back in surprise scared. "No honey it's me! I'm in my wolf form are you all all right? Once Hawke is calmed down a little he rushes forward and wraps his little arms around her leg. "Mamma!"

Diantha took a few deep breaths before slumping to her knees. "Be... careful Rye..." She said, still breathing hard. "That barrier will keep him in there for a bit..." She said. After a few more moments she looked back up. "That's a dark relic that controls its host... that boy isn't the one attacking." She said.
Soon after Luna arrived, then ran off to the triplets' room, Jay arrived. He looked around at all the damage and he frowned. "This is awful..." He murmured before looking back to see something in a bubble. "Wait... is that Valex?!" The king shouted.
Nova watched as his mother ran in in her wolf form. While he didn't recognize her right away, he didn't seem too scared. However after she revealed who she was, the boy immediately ran forward and into her fur. "Mommy!" The boy said, immediately cuddling into her warm fur.

Nova had just watched her brothers as they first talked about Hawke's eyes. She was slightly annoyed due to think then was not the time to focus on that. Then when a large wolf suddenly came to their room she just quickly went back under her bed, determined not to leave until everything was over. Once under the bed she covered her ears to closed her eyes.
Valex suddenly stopped has the voice of Jay reached Valex's ears. With a snap he turned to look at the King as the red insectoid eyes that covered his face slowly started to turn silver. With forced voice the boy asked, "F-father?"

Jay nodded and walked forward, despite the outcry from the knights and Servants still conscious, and rested a hand on Rye's shoulder to try and convey he should stand down a bit. He slowly knelt down, making sure to separate Valex from Rye and Diantha. "Yes. It's me, Valex. It's your father." He said, surprisingly gently for the situation. He looked into Valex's eyes, trying to force him to concentrate on him. "My son, it's me." He repeated.

Slowly the black magic mask that covered his head started to recede to show his face, eyes full of tears. With a broken voice he said, "C-can't control, m-my body. Hard to keep m-myself from attacking, d-don't want to hurt a-anyone else." The magic suddenly started to recover his face as the same red light from earlier shinned on the back of his neck. Once covered again the eyes also returned to their red color as he started to bash on the field with even more force.

Diantha coughed as Valex pounded on the container. She was still trying to keep it up, but it was quickly weakening. Since she could only use the magic stones to power the spell, she couldn't use much of her own energy to sustain it.
Jay flinched as Valex began to pound on the barrier again, sending vibrations and sound echoing around the hallway. "Valex! I know you'll listen so hear me now!" The king shouted, still looking right at the boy. "You're going to need to fight this, Valex. I know you can. I can't help you right now, this is your battle." The man said, trying to remain calm but also quickly becoming more scared for his adopted son. "Your family loves you, Valex. We don't blame you for this, but you'll need to fight this thing!" He said.

Rye points his staff at Valex and adds a second barrier just in case the first one broke. He gives Diantha a look then looks over at Jay.
Luna allows herself to shift back to properly hold her children. "Garnet, come out sweetie it's okay!" She called out. Luna runs her hands all over Hawke and Nova to check for injuries or marks. "I'm so glad you three are all right. "What happened?"

For a second Valex does stop his assault on the barriers, but yet again the red light shines. The boy let’s out a scream filled with sadness and pain before slamming his head repeatedly against the magic. With each stile came more force until streaks of red could be seen flowing down that parts of his face still exposed. Then with on final slam his body just seemed to stop.
Taking a moment to think Garnet decided to get out from her hiding spot when she heard her mothers voice. With a whine she said,” Mommy Valex is acting all mean and strange. Why is he being so scary?”

Rye winces as Valex slams his head against the barrier. When he finally stopped, he stands there unsure of what to do. "Diantha, darling I think you can remove the barrier now." He said removing his own though, he was ready just in case.
"I don't know sweetie." Luna answered as she pulls Garnet into the hug. She didn't really know what was going on. Upon hearing Valex scream, Luna swings her head around and bites the inside of her cheek. "Wait here little ones, I promise I will be right back."

Once pulled into the hug Garnet just grab her mommy with all the strength her tiny arms and hands could muster. Once her mother said she needed to go she yelled out, “No mommy please don’t go!”

Diantha seemed to be a bit hesitant. She had heard of how tricky the dark relic could be. However she couldn't keep the barrier up any longer and it broke, while Diantha slumped even farther as her energy was completely drained. She then looked up as Jay stood up slowly.
"Valex, my son. I know you're in pain. I'm here for you. Your mother is nearby too. We still love you." He said calmly.
Nova also seemed to not want his mother to go. His grip on her tightened as he tried to keep her there. "Momma I'm scared." He said softly, whimpering softly from all that had happened.

Once both barriers were down Valex still did not move an inch. The blood from him bashing his head repeatedly against the magic restraints mixing with a small stream of tears that seemed to flow down his face. Suddenly with a twitch the scorpion tail shot forward in a blur to grasp the kings throat. While this going on the red light shunned brighter than ever, black smoke accompanying it from it seemingly burning the boys neck.
Almost there)

Rye uses his fire magic to try and burn the scorpion tail.
"It's only for a little bit." Luna answered feeling bad for children. She could tell how upset they were. Luna pokes her head out the door and looks in the direction of Valex and Jay. "Valex!" She called out.

Before the fire spell could get near the tail Valex right claw shoot up to stop. His arm was set alight, but the boy did not make a sound. However, once Luna spoke his tail and body just froze in place. Slowly his head moved to look at his adoptive mother as the eye visor flickered between red and silver.

Jay watched as Valex's scorpion tail flashed out towards him. Thankfully he was able to bull up his muscles in his neck and shoulders with his wolf abilities. So while the constriction wad a bit tight and uncomfortable he was still mostly okay. However it wad getting tighter by the moment. He watched as Luna appeared in the doorway to the triplets' room. "Luna be careful! Valex, focus on my my son." He said, trying to conserve his breath and avoid exhaling.

Valex’s head slowly fidgeted towards to look back at Jay, the eyes still flashing between red and silver. The tail stopped its constricting, even loosening a tad bit. After a moment the light once again shined, searing his flesh causing black smoke to come off his neck. With a tiny bit of force he released his step father and fell to the ground, his claws tearing at the area the light was shining. All the while letting out a hastily whale that sounded slightly like a cry for his parents.

As Valex collapsed and started clawing st his neck, Jay instantly moved forward. Despite earning even more outcry from the people surrounding him, he continued forward. He knew the sound of a child desperately calling out for their parent. He quickly made his way up and knelt down, making sure to pin the scorpion tail in a way it wouldn't be able to get him again. The king wrapped his arms around Valex in a strong, tight hug. Grabbing his son's wrists to try and prevent him from gouging himself any more. "Mages, cool him down." He said, hoping some mage was still conscious enough to help cool off Valex's neck to stop the burning. "Valex, it's okay. I'm here. You're safe and I'm here..." He said, a few tears falling as he saw how much pain Valex was in.

Rye takes another a small step back just in case. He lifts up his hand and after muttering a spell creates a icy patch on Valex's neck. A few nearby mages start using their magic as well.
Luna turns away to focus back on the triplets. She couldn't bear to watch and hoped Jay would be able to get to him. She hurries back to her children and gives them a big hug.

Valex thrashed a little as he was stopped from clawing out the source of the light as his whales started to turn more and more sorrowful. As the ice was formed on his charred neck the black magic that covered him. His mask dissipating and his claws taking on more human appearance. His right eye turned back to its normal silver as he choked out, "G-get it out, p-please make it stop."

"Hold on Valex!" Rye called out to him. Despite his better judgement, he slowly moves closer towards Jay and Valex.
Luna tightens her grip on her three children.

Valex just yelled out as the light started to glow brighter and brighter, melting away and ice that was conjured. With a minute of clarity the boy forced the black magic up his arms and on his spine. Once there the magic made two sets of beast like claws and started to tear into the part of his neck the light was coming from. After a moment enough of the flesh was torn away to reveal a now bloody metal scorpion.
Garnet forced herself into her mother as she heard all of Valex’s screaming. She didn’t want him to scream any more, she just wanted all this to end so she could go back to sleep.
