Aw man. All hell was breaking loose. Not that it already hadn't broken loose. Rather than target Muu for a brutal chop, the axe ape had tossed his poo at her and charged down the preoccupied Argen. The panic began to set in as he realized that, save for their brute of a warrior, they were unable to handle the apes. Was this the time to break down and run? Where to? Back to the town where he barely had enough coin to survive another week? Even if he wasn't in harms way, the stress of it all was beginning to get to him. He wasn't to run. He was choking. The cool-headed Renauld who never wanted to stir up trouble was thinking of running away, all because of a couple of shit-flinging apes. That's when Katya finally managed to wrestle out of the snow. She grabbed and shook Renauld's arm and yelled at him. With her yell came a bizarre clarity; perhaps it was just the stress of battle that he could never get used to pushing him beyond his breaking point. Perhaps it was the voice of a little girl who should never of had to have been here. The reason didn't matter. What did matter was protecting his current party. Fuck doing anything flashy. Now wasn't the place. He needed to just do his part to support others. Obviously, the apes' bodies were better than most humans. Better than them, at least. That just meant that he had to even the odds a bit. He chanted once more, but with considerably more ferocity. Plus, the apes weren't smart enough to properly space themselves out. In an attempt to attack both Oscar and Argen, they had placed themselves in the perfect spot for Renauld to stop them. [i]"Endless tranquility of the Zeroth Circle, bestow thine presence upon this plane! Trespassers, halt thine callow movements within the white expanse! Furosutooooo Shyakuruusu!"[/i] Was he doing the exact same move as before? Yes. Did it matter? No. He only had a handful of spells and most of them had weaknesses. Carefully, he targeted his spell in the area between Oscar and Argen. The ice, much faster this time, erupted from the snow and began to envelop the apes feet.
