Clearly this girl- Matra, that was her name- knew what she was doing. He raised his hand and projected a shield as the dragon swooped in for an attack. @The Wandering Wizard 6 hours ago, Shadowed said: Matra screamed, wildly slashing her sword from side to side, to little effect. Why had she thought this was a good idea? She couldn’t even fight, let alone fight some demonic being of Kaos! Breathe, Matra. Remember the Golden Ones. Remember your training. A voice whispered from the depths of her being. Hav ran up to her, yelling at her, but she ploughed on. She could fix this. She could do this. ”Hav, cover my back. You, soldiers, help him with those tigers. As for X,” She grinned slightly maniacally. “Let’s go and fight a skeleton-dragon thing.” @xinoehp512 @Telrao @The Wandering Wizard Clinic: Roof The dragon swooped down, claws slashing against the shield, seeking to dig into the fleshy beings behind. It roared in anger as the shield frustrated it's attempts and steam began to blow furiously out of its nostrils. 24 minutes ago, InfiniteInsanity said: The Clinic: Roof I... No... I can't. Insa pushed Bookwyrm away. "Don't touch me." @The Bookwyrm "You must, you are of the Kaos. You can't deny it, your soul is steeped in it. The Kaos gave you the gift of autonomy, if...if you lose that gift. You will never get it back." The air began to warp behind all the people of the clinic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark wanted to stay back, truly he did, but he wanted to do better. To prove himself, to show that he was capable of helping, of doing something. He tried not to think about Wynn or Haly, but they kept coming back to him in his mind. He had failed them. Maybe if he had been better he could have stopped them. He could have done something.
