[Ky doesn't like going to the coral. It's a necessary fact of being in Vatheon but it feels too much like feeding this place -- or worshipping it -- for him. But not liking something has never gotten him out of doing it before and scheduling a specific time and day of the week for it makes the whole thing a lot more like it's something in his control.
So it's the will of God -- or luck -- more than anything else that has Ky in the area when Mithos launches the attack at Zelos. The magical force of it is obvious from what the distance is, enough for Ky to quickly look for source. When he sees the figures facing each other, magic still bleeding from the air, he runs to close the distance before there's the opportunity for another attack.
Some small part of his brain catalogues that it looks like a one-sided attack and that the person on the receiving end is Zelos, but the latter part doesn't matter because it isn't like Ky is going to treat the situation any differently, no one would make him do that. He focuses his attention on the other blond, lightning gathering near him if he needs it but very clearly staying away from any offensive posing.]
Stop this and step back.
[Ky does his best to radiate authority and control over this situation -- he doesn't have a problem with calling in the Defense Force or one of the other people he knows who would be able to match anyone in force, but for now he's going to give Mithos the benefit of the doubt.]
