Larel didn't leave Hotaru's side even as she removed her hands from her head, he was relieved at least that it had stopped but he wasn't sure how to answer that question. He didn't want to but he was really depending on Alari to be able to do something about this, though he put aside the favor for the time being looking back at Mera catching what she said earlier. Alari had suddenly looked behind him moments ago and Larel didn't know what it was but he could still hear Zenmaru laughing in his head, anything she found funny normally wasn't good. Alari meanwhile was making his way back to the room when he noticed Mary running upstairs, he arched a brow but followed after her not sure where she was going in such a hurry on her own. Seeing her run into darkness Alari's eyes narrowed before a scent, a regrettably familiar one at, that caught his attention causing him to stop immediately. Larel eyes widened and he felt his heart sink as blood dripped into the room, seeing the expression on Hotaru's and Mera's face didn't help his worry and it took a bit of willpower to regain himself to move as Mera instructed. He looked up ceiling at the wondering if he could cover it up only to see a drop land on Hotaru, his eyes narrowed seeing the expression on Hotaru's face and though he didn't want to leave he agreed with Mera that whatever this was needed to stop. Larel grabbed his sword and ran out of the room to find the source, Zenmaru's laughter only seemed to increase before she told him to go upstairs as she noticed Alari dash up there earlier. He wasn't sure what to think about her advice but he complied and ran up the stairs as the cause was probably up there anyway, sure enough he noticed Alari and ran towards him as the darkness receded around Mary, Alari eyes narrowed seeing what was underneath it. His hands closed into fists as he stared at the bodies, he took a deep breath to calm himself but it didn't do much as his hands remained clenched and he barely held his composure. He wasn't sure why these bodies were here but this was bad, innocent lives were laying on the ground in a horrific state and he was sure Hotaru was going to smell this....just as that thought came to mind Alari's eyes widened, if this location was where he thought it was then it would be above the room Hotaru was in. It would be bad for anyone in that room if that was the case including Hotaru. "Alari!" Larel yelled causing Alari to look away missing the darkness behind Mary. "Larel what're you- ah that doesn't matter go back to the room there's bodies up here! I'll try and take care of them." "Alright hurry up!" Larel yelled with a nod and quickly turned before running back toward the room having the source of the blood. Alari turned back around to see the darkness behind Mary, he grit his teeth and quickly rushed forward that wasn't Zenmaru's or Larel's darkness. In the end he had to try and act as it was right near Mary. "Mary move out of the way!"
