For a moment, Amaryllis hesitated. The Knight had expected a sneer, or a clear falsehood, but instead, the Maiden's response had been pure confusion instead, as if the Horror-vowed caster didn't actually understand anything at all. A child. That's what it sounded like. A child blind to the terror they wrought at the behest of their Patron, who simply moved them along like an unwitting pawn on a cosmic chessboard. Her hesitation never lasted long though, not when her Sword pressed itself against her back, always urging her forward, always drawing her away from her mind before she tunneled too deep.

No matter the circumstances, the reflection within her silvered blade revealed monstrosities of all shapes and sizes combating the mummies while kidnapping humans, killing whomever resisted. That was fact, no matter what emotional filter Annabelle impressed upon them. So she discarded it, as silvery comets reminded her that the Knight had an ally still within the morbid cesspool that Penrose was becoming. With unerring accuracy and remarkable power, they struck down the mummies one by one, a silvered bolt even drawing blood from the void witch herself. Ranged support was surprisingly pleasant. Ranged support was something she hadn't really ever experienced before. A rush went up her spine, independent of her Sword's psychic proddings, and Amaryllis allowed herself a grin despite the circumstances.

My own blade shall sing of this wretched mastermind's end!"[/color] Her voice rang through the stadium like a clarion call, and the tip of her sword resonated with it as well, vibrating with bloodied anticipation.

Time to pick up the pace.

Diving diagonally from her high vantage point, she lunged for Annabelle's outstretched arm, piercing through all shadows unfortunate enough to be caught in her path and shedding gossammer petals in her wake. The head of the snake went first. All else could wait.
