Welp, that's it, cover's blown.  The goal now is surviving the getaway.  Though, with Gregor's quick thinking putting the entire party on edge, that may be a little bit easier.  Every muscle in Mercury's body is wound tight like an iron spring, ready to send her bolting towards the nearest exit as quickly as possible, but the drunken guard could prove to be an issue.  Nothing a powerful surge of electricity couldn't solve~  Hopefully...

Magic surging through her storm runes, she quickly places her fists to the guard's abdomen, palms facing each other vertically, electricity arcing between her hands.  She slams her eyes shut at Gregor's warning, simultaneously discharging enough electricity to paralyze the guard, hopefully for more than long enough to get away.  Judging by those arcs between her fists...it may have been a touch too much.  Not deadly, but a normal person wouldn't be doing much for a while.
