[color=firebrick]"Ow."[/color] Orchid stepped back from the spikes and examined her foot. It really wasn't that bad, but seeing the makeshift caltrops, Orchid was concerned if she was poisoned. Her leg wasn't numb and her wound was minor, but still she should be wary. [color=firebrick]"Dammit. I should have tried to make some shoes or something."[/color] Orchid wouldn't have much more time to do any examinations as new threats were coming. A ball of light carrying something. If Orchid had to guess, more of the other humans. However she was asking for help, being chased by "bad guys". Hard to say what a bad guy is in the midst of this chaos. But if Orchid had to guess, bad guys in the direction this wisp came from meant there was bad news happening that way. Orchid had no interest in dealing with that, so she would go the opposite way. Once she figures out how to get past these traps. [color=firebrick]"I don't know who you are and frankly I don't give a damn. I'm getting out of this cave. Ashe, there are some traps up ahead so I'll have to move a bit more slowly, but otherwise... Watch out. Shits going real crazy now."[/color] Orchid didn't take her eyes off this newcomer or the weird pixie she brought, raising her shield defensively. Orchid would walk slowly and carefully now, shuffling her feet instead of taking steps so she could sweep aside any more spikes instead of stepping on them. [color=firebrick]"If you're one of the humans, just know that I blame you for everything going to shit so quickly. You couldn't just [i]try[/i] to talk things out with the goblins first before you decide the best thing to do was kill their leader and destabilize their little clan. What next, try to plant a new leader to control them and then go right back to war when they end up going independent? You'd think you people would know more about the cold war if you at least took a history class or something!"[/color] Orchid sassed, partly to vent at them, mostly to distract them from her allies and focus on her as she slowly would make her way towards the cave exit.
