Two things here... first of all- I don't think you need the 'as well'. Secondly, white hair + white cape dosn't exactly flow for me, but it's your character, so you choose.
Quote:
His gracious composer stood still, half his body covered in the

Should be 'composure', and I don't think gracious is the right adjective. Try: solemn, amiable, suave, divine

Quote:
His white eyes glared at Jordan soothingly while they let out the sentiment of malevolence and sorrow.

White cape, white hair, white eyes? Is this guy supposed to be a saint? You can always use a different thing besides white, maybe cream or something...
Quote:
around thee muscle to reveal his blue
'The', right?
Quote:
His white eyes examined the blade
Find a different adjective for white
Quote:
What had just happened? She couldn’t comprehend the magnificence of what had just happened. There was no way too. He had just created a weapon with nothing but thin air around him.
This dosn't sound good here, you don't even need it actually...
Quote:
He grinned menacingly,

I think a simile here would be nice, instead of the adjective to describe his grin.

Very nice, I was surprised at Ryan's transformation , but did he just transform to get wings? Other than the few errors I caught, very good. I can't wait to see the battle

Titania is on a distinguished road
I just found out the only bad thing about all the titles for this story looking the same, which is that I don't realize when it's a new one if I can't remember which number I'm on...

Quote:
flourishing behind him in the gentle wind with his long white hair with blue strands tossed behind him
a little repetition here

Quote:
illuminated in the sun light
sunlight can be one word

Quote:
her wounded arm twitching violently, as she made her way across the field
the comma isn't really necessary

Quote:
causing her apprehension in each of her steps
I'd take out the first "her," it sounds a bit odd

Quote:
each pulled as far from each other as possible
maybe take out the first "each"?

Quote:
His hand stayed lifted, his pale skin on his hand tight around the muscle to reveal his blue veins and his lengthy fingers closing into a fist, his long fingernails pinching his palm before reopening
Hmm... I think you could take a lot of these out, like this (for example):
His hand stayed lifted, pale skin tight around the muscle to reveal blue veins and lengthy fingers closing into a fist, long fingernails pinching his palm before reopening.
It's implied that they're his.

Quote:
first making a curved handle until it spiraled hastily into a silver blade that glistened in the sunlight
the way this was worded it seemed like this should be "they" (referring to the particles)

Quote:
What had just happened? She couldn’t comprehend the magnificence of what had just happened. He had just created a weapon with nothing but thin air around him.
where's Dephere when I need him... another bit of repetition

Quote:
He forcibly splintered his body into a stretch; shrill snaps filling the air before looked back upon Jordan, who was standing on the soil, far in front of him, and several feet below him
filled, and I think you're missing a "he" between "before" and "looked". Also, maybe take out the comma in: far in front of him(,) and several feet below him

Well that was certainly a shock. Very entertaining, and pretty nicely described Hope to see more, thanks for sharing as always.

Thank you a lot Titania. I appreciate your help more than ever. Thank you a lot. lol - Dephere has only gotten from One to Four. lol - So, I'll here about repeatition far later. lol - Otherwise, thank you a lot. And yeah, I know the title thing is always weird and hard to determain when there is a new one if you forgot which was just posted. So, I might bold the number everyone is on. lol - Nah, it's fun watching people be confused - lol - No, I might help out a little more. And, if you notice, I use dashes when I talk, mmhmm, I'm hypocritical. I know, but this isn't a story. lol - I noticed them as well. Oh well, thank you a lot for your help.

Ok, i've said this before, but it counts double this time. Or, is it triple? Can't remember. This story is awesome. It makes others wither and fall to the ground in a pile of dust.

Quote:
Jordan braced herself for whatever was about to happen, about it didn’t seem to her that it would make a difference.


did you mean although? Kinda confusing...

Quote:
His white eyes glared at Jordan soothingly while they let out the sentiment of malevolence and sorrow.


Okay, reading it again. How can someone glare soothingly? Or, in Ryan's case, something?

Quote:
snow-colored eyes


just had a thought. Snow can be yellow too! lol.

but very good.

Quote:
She stared at him profoundly as his body gradually started to lift off the soil, his body arched and lengthened violently beyond his limits until finally on his shoulder, slightly about the golden clips, two bones eroded from the shoulder plate.


above? around?

Hey Jelly, thank you a lot for reading and a lot for the help. lol - Yes, I know, snow can be yellow, but it's implyed to be white. And on the soothingly, it was meant for peacefully. So, that's it, otherwise, thank you a lot for reading and I'm very glad you liked it. Thank you.

Hey Oasis. This story has a great storyline. Nice chapter too. I don't think you need action in every bit of your story, there must be some calm parts as well and this one seems to have that.

Nice work.
