[h3]Meirin Kurenai[/h3]

Breathing hard Meirin held Lyn tightly but knew she couldn't stay here for long. She could still hear fighting behind her and as much as she wanted to make sure Lyn is safe she needed to get back to the others. Lyn was in more danger away from the wagon so Meirin got back onto her feet and started to move briskly to the wagon. She saw the Robed Man launch a flurry of spells before jumping off the bridge, but she still saw him at the bridge fighting Alaira as well. Meirin had a bit of an idea of what might have just happened: the robed man must have used a Doppelganger. She vaguely remembered seeing something like that when she was with Ssarak during one of their morning exercises. Meirin guessed that the one at the bridge was a doppelganger because she saw Ssarak flying over the river. She knew that Ssarak would be able to discern the difference between a Doppelganger and it's mage, so he must have chased after the real robed man.

Meirin returned to the wagon, careful to shield Lyn from the ravaged corpse on the ground. Alaira must have gotten to him, as his head was just an utter mess. Though near the body of the corpse was also Lyn's bear... Covered in blood and gore. Meirin wouldn't have been surprised if one of Lyn's guardians also gave her a protector in the form of a bear, but what exactly this bear did to kill the pale guard was something she'd rather leave unknown. Regardless the bear was important to Lyn so Meirin picked it up, tried to clean it of the blood the best she could, and than put it and Lyn back into the wagon. [color=39b54a]"Stay here, okay Lyn? We're going to protect you. We almost have all the bad guys beaten, so please just stay here until we come back."[/color] Meirin gave Lyn and quick kiss on her forehead to seal her promise before running off to help Ssarak.

She saw Alaira and Darius fight the doppelganger, and uncertain of how one goes about defeating one of them Meirin simply shouted at them. [color=39b54a]"That's a doppelganger you two! Don't waste your time with him, the real one is in the water!"[/color] Meirin didn't stop to say that and yelled it as she ran past them. She couldn't fly as well as Ssarak could and frankly she didn't think it would have been much help if she did. Ssarak was already flying as low as he could and she'd only get in the way if she tried to squeeze between them. Instead she ran as far down the river as she could until she was a bit ahead of the robed man and Ssarak. Meirin spread her legs shoulder width apart, took a deep breath, and thought back to one of her previous Weaving lessons.

Spreading her arms out Meirin began to move her arms slowly upwards in a circular motion. Only one arm was up and down at a time, in perfect cadence with each other. It needed to be for what she was trying to do. Soon she was able to move her arms faster and faster, timing it just right so at the last moment, she exploded in a flurry of movements ending with what looked to be a palm thrust towards an nonexistent chin. This set of movements was actually one of her Hydromancy Weaving Techniques: It basically allowed her to move a certain body of water sharply upwards. She could move a whole bathtub of water up, but she couldn't do the same for the whole river. But she only needed to move the section of the river where the robed man was, so timing it just right with Ssarak's hammer swing, she launched the robed man into Ssarak's hammer.

[h3]Myrn Vaan'Atisha[/h3]

A lot of things happened very quickly. Soon after the headmaster arrived a small entourage of others showed up. It made sense she suppose, there was a rather large disturbance at his very own office. Still just who came to the office shocked Myrn more than the vines did. Shortly after Khan and his demon arrived Myrn was tackled by a very large person. She nearly punched him in the gut when she realized that the person, an orc, was the very same one she's been looking for all this time. She was just as surprised as he was to see her here. [color=fff79a]"Whoa! It's you again! I-I can't believe it, I knew you where coming here, but I never thought an orc would actually show up at the college..."[/color]

Myrn didn't get a chance to say much before another person arrived. A very pale lady, whom Myrn thought was rather beautiful, but something about her screamed of danger and arrogance. Like a noble who served in a deadly decedent court. The woman seemed to have not noticed Myrn and went strait to the head master. With just a glance Myrn could tell that the Head Master was in pain. She's seen plenty of others doing exactly what he was; trying to hide how tired and hurt they were from doing something as simple as running. But where others would think this made Khan weak Myrn knew better than that. While a strong mage should be able to keep themselves in good shape, she knew from stories and experience that even the oldest of veterans were a force to be reckoned with. Their scars and injuries were merely a testament of their durability. Myrn was certain that whatever Khan must have dealt with to be so weak, it was something powerful that not even she could withstand.

Myrn was going to speak to Khan when someone else arrived. Someone or some... Thing. A grey creature who, whom Myrn pinned down as a demon of some sort. He looked very monstrous, but what he said scared her more than what he looked like. [color=fff79a]"W-w-worms!?[/color] Myrn looked down at her injuries, and sure enough there was something crawling underneath her skin. Her body went cold. How could this have happened? Was it the vines? Just what in the world was going on? Than the demon approached her with blade-like claws, causing Myrn to step back and draw her blade. It was an instinctual thing to do, despite coming to the realization that she likely just drew her weapon on a teacher at the college. She was going to apologize when another person arrived. He looked normal at first, but when she looked down she noticed his bird like legs. He called himself Baulder, but Myrn could hardly comprehend it. This was madness. It needed to be stopped. [color=fff79a]"Stop, just, stop! Everyone please just stop!"[/color]

Of course it didn't. As though the situation wasn't any more bizarre and lacking of colorful characters, a suit of armor approached them. Myrn could tell at a glance that the armor was hollow but that didn't make her any close to being at ease. First there was the Eysire, than the pale woman who radiates a sinister aura, the demon who threaten to cut her open, and now a possessed suit of armor. Despite being one of the more odder creatures here the suit of armor, Uicle, seemed to be one of the more reasonable people around. He told the demon, Tyrael, to put away his claws. But the way Uicle said it made her think that this was a regular occurrence with Tyrael which was why she still kept her sword up. Than out of no where a part of the ceiling fell on Uicle's head, denting it. If she didn't already know he was a hollow suit of armor before, she certainly would now as she heard the echoing in his body and saw now sever the dent was. If that helmet had a full head their skull would have been split.

Finishing off this madness was another Demon Rathel, at least that's what Myrn think's Khan called him. Apparently he can safely get the vines out of her body, but at the time Myrn also thought he was the reason why they were in her body in the first place. Sufficient to say she did not trust him at all. But from what Uicle and Tyrael said, she was in mortal danger. At this point Myrn was seriously debating if she should just take Krogal and fight her way out of the college. But she started to feel her strength get weaker. She suspects that this is the work of those vines or parasites, sapping her body of energy. She wasn't really in any position to fight further, so she shot the demon Rathel a hard glare. [color=fff79a]"Just get it this over with."[/color] To say that Myrn was incredibly annoyed right now was an understatement. She sheathed her weapon and readied herself for whatever it was that Rathel was going to do.
