"No..." I whispered to myself as soon as I realize what hit me. I then turn towards my allies on the wall, and state "If you're attacking the esper, be careful... it counters magic with doom," I didn't dare attack the thing again, as, not only did my spells not do a dang thing, but I wasn't entirely up to see what else this thing had in store for me. "Just... please... tell me that you have at least one phoenix down ready," I then tell them, not wanting to die here due to the dark esper. No, instead, I focused on the risen who were attacking a severely wounded stranger who was trying to enter the gate on one of those horse things. I knew my time here was almost up, but that doesn't mean I can let someone else die to these things... I'll take out as many of them as I can before my time's up. I fire off all of my fire spells at the risen that have surrounded him, and look off to my left to see Erion riding a dragon that became that other stranger, the not-quite-Viera from earlier. They appeared to be retreating back to the city, as it seems the revitalized undead were a little too much for them... and just as well as they seemed to be fighting harder since the dark esper appeared. Things weren't looking good for me, and this doom just won't get out of my mind, I can't seem to forget it no matter how much I try, and it just eats away at whatever courage I had, knowing that I don't have much longer... knowing that my time is almost up. Of course, I still put on a brave face to everyone else, mainly because I didn't want this effecting their mental state, as well.
