Snippet #2738384

Robin quickly joined the fray, fighting a bloodline until he heard Hollow’s instructions. ”Sever the heads from the Body Azura.” She demonstrated with killing one of her opponents. ”Like this.” She then hurried to try and make a distraction for them as Robin nodded and proceeded to go for the head as instructed. He had to hurry and figure out an escape plan. He then recalled what he was carrying in his doublet pocket. Maybe, just maybe it’d work.

He then saw the bloodling version of Narissa and realized one of two things. One, She was most likely dead. The second thing being the most guilt wrenching feeling of all. Robin may have been indirectly responsible for her death. He blocked an attack by another bloodline as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When next he opened his eyes, He gave a battle cry and took its head. During all this Maelthra was trying to prepare his own magic to help fight as well because unlike Robin, Galen neglected to bring his sword, even when Hollow tried to communicate with him briefly.

The shock of the bloodling in the form of Narissa did not truly shock Lucian. He knows she hated Maelthra no matter who was in charge of the Body of Galen. But Galen knew it must have pained Clara. But why would Narissa kill herself? He didn’t know the answer.

”Maelthra we have to go-“ Hollow tried to tell him, But was interrupted when the bloodling Narissa threw a shard at them, which Hollow avoided, but it hit Clara. ”Shit, shit, shit, She muttered. ”Maelthra, Don’t let her blood hit the ground.” Maelthra reverted to Galen when he caught her, and tried to use his magic to control the bleeding wound, and dry any blood already out of her.

”Galen?” Panic and fear was shown in his eyes as he held her and stood up to carry her in his arms. He was afraid for her life, tears formed in his eyes. No words left his mouth, no sound either. But mentally, he screamed in rage as his eyes flowed grey, glaring at the bloodling as a rune appeared in front of its face. A second later the rune sent a blast of fire at the creature. “Maelthra is a Title. My name, is Galen Black.” He’d never call himself Azura, for he was of an Illigetimate lineage, so the name he heard his Mother use for others like him would do.

“Galen! We are leaving! If we stay we’ll be overrun!” Robin shouted as he defeated another bloodling and hurried to regroup with the others. “We need a way out now. But where?! They’re probably blocking the way out of the throne room except...”

The hunter of the Azura clan eyed the balcony. ”Oh hell no. Please tell me that’s not our only option Fate! There’s got to be another way right!?” No matter what he thought, he knew there might be no other way out but through there. ”I really could use a Gryphon right about now...”
