[color=0054a6]Varya Chandrar[/color] Varya's blades found their mark on the beast's backside, though this did little more than annoy the ferocious bear. Its going to take [i]a lot[/i] more than a few nicks from his sword to tire this brute out. Before he had time to run, his spine jolted and his nerves were frozen in shock! Powerless to move, the bear kicked him with his hind leg, launching him into a brick wall. He would have curled up into a ball if he could from the enormous pain, instead he laid there. He then heard the clanging of metal bars, and looked to see he was now in a cell, warded by some unknown magics. The redheaded woman looked at him with a sadistic smile. [color=f49ac2]"Ah! A new test subject! Be a dear and make yourself at home. Fret not. This will be over soon!" [/color] That witch! Varya tried to get up from the floor, but his limbs would not obey his commands. [i]Get up! Get up! Your allies need you![/i] He cursed his helplessness. His allies were fighting and bleeding for the mission, and here he was lying as if napping on the floor! He felt shame and humiliation, how can he be so careless? He didn't have much time to pity himself though, his allies were in danger! Though he willed it, his body did not feel it. He could only watch and hear the chaos erupting around him. Ok, don't panic, look around if you can. Maybe Cedar is in one of the cells, or there was a vulnerability to exploit? Given his position, there was nothing he could do. He hoped that his allies could persevere without him, and forgive his incompetence.
