[hr]
With children now a part of her charge, Rhaeyla became ever more vigilant, her resolve to protect her friends deepened after seeing them through their first fight. They'd survived the last encounter with minor injuries and she didn't want to risk any more than that. Moving under cover of the night would have assuaged her worries, if it weren't for the fact that a possible assailant could just as easily slink in the darkness as they did. Rhaeyla's vision wasn't impeded at night, but they were a fairly big group and she didn't know how effectively she could protect them all. 

At Magdar's quiet warning, Rhaeyla instinctively pushed forward and took the lead from Linan. Ordinarily, she wouldn't have been so quick to resort to violence, but these individuals were armed and that alone was enough to set her on edge. Her thoughts flickered briefly to the lives she had taken today, the weight of the deed still hanging on her shoulders, and then to the group behind her. No, she mustn't hesitate at times like this. To protect them, she would have to do what's necessary. 

Rhaeyla quickly glanced back at Cassandra and Sebastian in an attempt to convey her intentions. Then, with big but quiet strides, she lunged with her staff, targeting the human in leather armor. There was a telltale crunching that made her wince, reflexively and out of sympathy, but that also told her she had hit her mark.

She jumped back and away from the warm, yellow light of their lamp, and made sure her hood was still secured over her hair. The last thing she wanted was for the sheen of her hair to give away her position. She raised her staff defensively, ready for retaliation.
