"Yes, Diagorides, I am [i]more[/i] than aware the woman is mad beyond her years - addled by the power her and other mortals think they can contain, let alone wield." She spared the burly man her scornful gaze because of his obvious skepticism in the whole matter, well evidenced throughout this night from the start, "One of many reasons I dared not agree to what it was she wished us to, but I swore to hunt this 'demon' and to that end I will."

[i]"No, wait, get back here woman."[/i]

The man interjected appropriately before the swordswoman stepped in to on her own. This was tiresome and she was having none of it anymore; unburdening her shoulder from the paled figure of Lady Genevieve, she set the woman down upon her side. Storm and mud or not, she could care less because the [i]other[/i] enemy seemed to have an objective remaining and was less than cooperative. What little [i]was[/i] clear on this storm wracked night was that the human was clearly indifferent to the threat of death; an entire group of adventurers ranging from battle hardened knights, experienced mercenaries and psionically gifted smallfolk, the last of which undoubtedly would soon be calling for her blood.

"So help me, if you take another step I will not be so polite - I [i]will[/i] be as vicious a monster as I appear." Sakaala's lips quivered with the restrained anger of a queen insulted; the raw audacity this woman had to think herself able to speak to them in such a manner as though everything she had just said was not plainly evident by itself.

"Your warning came far too late and even now you [i]clearly[/i] preoccupy yourself with other matters." The blade shook slightly before she steadied it with the other hand, water careening down its silvery steel, dripping over the tightly bound handguard and her massive pawed hands.

"Clear and concise, explain yourself... or leave."

There was going to be no warning after that; the ultimatum was set and lengthy tales were not going to do her well.
