[i][b]Azalea Crowe[/b][/i] [hr] The journey to Yorrick had earned Azalea a fonder appreciation for the downy beds within the dormitories back home. She had not been prepared for sleeping on rocks, their sharp edges poking into her back and sides no matter which way she lay, and she felt the inside of her legs being rubbed raw from riding horseback nearly the entire way. To be honest, she would have preferred never riding one of the beasts again... But, somehow, her palomino had endeared himself to her in just the three days they had been together. She had secretly named him Ramsey. She had also gained a companion in Angriff, a sturdy knight in armor who shared her moral views. She had a feeling he would have her back, and her his. The others though... Her gaze swept around the rest of their companions. Zoltan was particularly troublesome and needed a firm admonishment, as well as a lesson in sobriety. She had no true problems with the others, yet. They seemed capable and stalwart. As they approached the gates, their welcoming committee was... quaint, if not a touch rude. She raised an arched brow at the man with the axe. Before she could open her mouth to introduce their party, the screams fell upon her hears. She rounded her palomino around and squinted into the distance. What she heard the men of the village say, however, surprised her even more than the sight before her. She turned in her saddle to glare at their retreating backs. [b]“You mean to tell me that strapping and capable men such as yourselves would let a child be mauled by those beasts?! By the Grace of the Fair Lady, I pray for your souls!”[/b] Azalea growled at them haughtily and raced her horse forward without any further delay. It came to a stop near to Angriff's, though she could feel the horse wanting to race from those wolves. [b]“I will not let those savage hounds take you! Shield your eyes and keep coming towards us!”[/b] She pulled out her bloodstone, and held it in the air towards the wolves. She gave a prayer to the Fair Lady that this would slow those fiends down. [center][i][b]“Surrounded by darkness faith shines the brightest.”[/b][/i][/center] She recited her Psalm calmly, her eyes focused on the wolves.
