Fighting like that was... annoying for Nyna, but it was the only option, due to the terrible terrain they were in right now. The other death hounds, after seeing what happened with the one she cut, immediately bolted in all directions, surrounding her, obviously trying to get her from multiple angles, evading her blade. It would be dangerous... She had to do something. Nyna wasn't a tank. In fact, she wore almost no armor. Her advantage was exactly on her mobility, which was currently taken away, due to the terrain. She could move the Lunar Edge very quickly, but the amount of enemies nearby would overwhelm her sooner or later. She had to do something.

Making the Lunar Edge spin rapidly around her, forming a ring, she continued attacking the enemies who got near her and at the same time, discouraging other enemies who wanted to get near her. But that would only work for so long. If they all jumped at her at the same time, surely one would be able to pass trough her blade.

[color=f26522]"Get up on my shoulders. I have a plan!"[/color] Spooky said, interrupting her thoughts.
Nyna looked at him, for a bit, confused. But shortly after, she understood what he was trying to do. Due to the circumstances, it would undeniably be the best option.

But before she could answer him, she saw a small thing running towards her, while passing underneath the other skeletons. She was already assuming a posture, ready to kick it, but when it came closer to her, she was simply unable to touch that creature...
It wasn't just a simple rat. The disgusting thing was covered in pus and wounds...

With an audible gasp and a very disgusted expression, she immediately called the Lunar Edge. The blade came quickly flying towards her, almost like it was going to hit her but this time, it wasn't spinning. Nyna flew in the air with a powerful leap, passing inside the bladed ring as she did so, grabbing the weapon with her hand, landing on Spooky's shoulders shortly after. Her landing was surprisingly weightless, the speed and height she jumped, one would probably expect quite an impact, but she simply landed on his shoulders.

[color=green]"What is that thing?!"[/color] Nyna said, with a disgusted expression, sitting on his shoulders, putting her arms around his neck and pressing her thighs against his helmet for a second.

[color=green]"I-I'm sorry!"[/color] Nyna said, releasing her grasp on him.
[color=green]"But it's not entirely my fault!! Look at that disgusting thing!! I Would kick it, but... EWW... Its simply too disgusting for me to even touch it..."[/color] Nyna said, throwing the ringed blade in the air, making it spin around Spooky, cutting any creature foolish enough to try to approach him.

[color=green]"I'm sorry to be useless like that... Its only because my fighting style is mainly based on my mobility... And with all this mud around... It gets pretty hard to move, you know?"[/color] Nyna said, with an awkward smile.

[color=green]"So... Any idea on how we will get away from all these creatures? I mean... We need to get somewhere before gets dark, right?"[/color]

The first signal that they were approaching the fort was the vision of a stone tower in the horizon with a long, silver banner on top of it.
Approaching the fort, it was quite an interesting sight to see. The fort itself was built into a craggy hillside, with some guard posts and barracks, with the only way in and out being a narrow gravel road. It was almost something out of the fantasy books she used to read.

Surrounding the fort, Yasha was able to see a lot of makeshift stalls, wagons and a surprising number of people coming and going. As Lessig has said earlier, they would probably be able to find a carriage going to Arcos from there, as it was an active trading post. And even if they didn't find one, she could simply use her magic to go there flying... Although it wouldn't be that discreet...

It took a few hours, but they were finally there. Surprisingly, nothing happened on the way. No bandits or animals, all in all, it was a pretty peaceful travel. LEssig was a good man, as it was evident after he started to talk cheerfully about his daughter, which was an adventurer herself, his life & etc.

Getting out of the wagon, she turned to Lessig.
[color=red]"Lessig, It was a pleasure traveling with you. We are incredibly grateful for your kindness."[/color] Yasha said, bowing in a formal greeting.
Yasha raised her head just in the moment to see Selena running away on her own, stopping near one of the stalls nearby, and Senna going to a weapon merchant.

[color=red][I]"She is... awfully energetic, isn't she?"[/I][/color] Yasha thought to herself, with a discreet smile. Somehow, Selena made her remember of Nyna. She wondered what happened with her... Making a quick mental note on where Senna and Selena were, she dismissed those thoughts.

There were things to be done, and wondering about the past wasn't a good idea. With that though on her mind, she started walking around the fort. It was quite obvious that she was incredibly out of place there, especially due to her clothes, and the magic rifle on her hand. It wasn't surprising to see that she was drawing a lot of attention to herself, but Yasha wasn't that annoyed by it. She liked the style of those clothes. And being noted wasn't that bad. In fact, it could lead to some... interesting developments. Yasha walked with confidence and a noble like air. In fact, that wasn't part of the 'persona' she created a while before when she met Lessig, but she indeed did have that confident and regal air to her. The only big difference was that her words were much more sharper and venomous than the words she said to Lessig. Anyone talking to her 'real' self, would notice that she wasn't just a cute, naïve girl.

Instead of buying anything, or asking for information, Yasha simply kept walking around, analyzing both the people nearby and the stalls... Going after something she wasn't sure herself wasn't the best course of action right now. The opportunity to do something would surely present itself with time...
