[h1][center][color=E4583C] GANYMEDE [/color][/center][/h1] She looked at the old lady from alllllll the way down to 5 feet. Rolling her eyes at the speech, she looked at Siiga. [color=E4583C]“Last chance. I’m not here to let her fall into King’s hands at all, not even Nuxta,”[color=E4583C] She quirked a smile towards her. What a cutie. Someone came in from the back, but she took her time to turn around and face him. He looked young, and fresh, though a bit winded. Poor kiddo, his mission would fail. [color=E4583C]“You’re here to bring it to Vrondi, no? Then sorry, no negotiations.”[/color] Looking to Siiga, she winked, pulling off the red cloth on her scythe to reveal slashes of dragonic text, handing her cloth. [color=E4583C]“Use this, dear.”[/color] Instantly, the visible markings glowed. She took a huge breath in, her eyes turning to slits. Like an explosion in her mouth happened, she blew out massive amounts of toxins. The air turned a dark green, the small amounts of sunlight coming in being tinted. The fumes covered all sight of Ganymede, and her Basilisks started to slither in. ————————————— [h1][center][color=FFE4E1] CONSTANCE MARIT[/color][/center][/h1] She didn’t listen to Dremmick, because she simply didn’t care. Whatever he was saying was a waste of breath, as he weakly tried to defend himself. After eyeing the mountain, Constance had the same idea as Mason. She turned around, going to find Kou. Before she ran off, she looks back at the bandits. They were cold and wet, but alive in the least. [color=FFE4E1]“I hope you take this as a lesson to turn your lives around,” She says, before grabbing her shield from the bank, and running towards the horse. Kou was in wait, a bloody hind. [color=FFE4E1]“I’m sorry boy,”[/color] She said, taking a deep breath. She lifted her hand, and the best she could do was to close the skin. [color=FFE4E1]“You’ve got to hold out a little bit longer, ok?”[/color] As she mounted the horse, her armor soaked, but they were both alive. Mason sure seemed in a rush though. Even if they did get the artifact first, what were they to do? Go out the one entrance and outrun them despite having used all their energy getting there? Kicking off, the ride took a while as Kou resisted a bit, but he seemed to trust Constance. Considering the injury and energy levels, they made it in record time. They had already been so close. Dismounting, she let Kou off to find some water to comfort him. She was about to walk in, when the sound of something similar to a water pump leak appeared. And... Hisses? She stepped in cautiously, her shield at the ready. And then she was hit with it. A green smoke-ish substance hit her, curling around her shield like tendrils. She instantly started coughing mad, she she fumbled to find something to cover her face. Pulling hard on the protective shirt from the chain mail, she ripped it off- or at least some of it. [color=FFE4E1]“Mason? Mason!?”[/color] No, no, he had to be alive. Trying to push forward, dots invaded the corners of her eyes. But she had to push on. Eyes watering, she tried to call on something inside her to find him. Like an ancestral connection? Blood? She didn’t know, but she did know it was all she could rely on. Like calling out into the void, she spoke his name in her mind. [color=FFE4E1][i]”Where are you?”[/i][/color]
