Claire took a few steps out of the building, and wondered where the Xoxi and Cia had gone. She guessed that they probably went to wander somewhere nearby. That, or they decided to ditch her. If it was the latter, then she'd have to pay them back in a fair and totally unbiased way...well, maybe just a little biased...and unfair. Still, there's not really that much evidence to back it up. She didn't hear Cia make any portals, and she saw them still outside before she went down from the rooms, so they must have done the former. 

Sighing, Claire took another step, but stopped. She had heard something. A shifting sound of movement. Shelooked around cautiously, and brought out a blade from one of her strange-looking sleeve's slits. She didn't want to deal with the mess of using her powers out in the open and being recognized, so she was really limited on her options of defense. She was still, and then she heard a strange tapping. It wasn't a rhythmic tapping, but more of an erratic one that she could associate more to...dancing.

She swung her blade in a direction, but missed as the Mirifakino exiles landed from above. One of them caught her arm with their leg, while the others proceeded to overcome and bind her limbs with rope. The tallest of the exiles swung his arm to the side, and produced a rather crude-looking dagger. He pressed the blade against the area where Claire's neck would be. Then, she suddenly felt something on her own head. There had to have been something on her head, as it spoke.

"I don't know how you got here, but you saved us a lot of trouble, lady."

Claire could only assume that the creature on her head was a nyceling. There were only two races that she knew of that would be able to talk and be that size, and they were Mycelings and Slimililies. Considering her hood wasn't getting moist in any way, it had to be the former.

"Come on out, you two! We have your friend! Give us what we want, or we'll kill her!...Actually don't do anything! I want to see how long it takes for her to bleed out!"

Claire wondered why she always encountered weird people when she's with other deities.

Resin was pinching his forehead at how Cherry ended up doing exactly what he thought he'd do: Completely ignoring the plan and doing things on his own. The squid kid had to admit that he should've seen it coming, but he swears that the rodent was trying to find excuses to kill people. Given that even his own plan was put together at the last minute because of how fast their new targets apparently were, he didn't have time to formulate any extra plans that would deal with the idiot. Still, Resin would have to deal with it when the time comes.

Behind him, was the figure from before. He was resting, but keeping his eye on things. Just in case he had to step in.
