Twists and turns of the ruinous structure of the fort revealed not only the demon herself, but both Thomas and Riku to follow her through the passages and hallways of no actual sense: though both of them looked worn down, they were both alive. Leaving the Fable pair to take a short rest the demon stepped up to take some leftover of the food alien to her and take a bite, while observing over the newcomer; coming up to her she took a light bow, leaning her torso down and greeted her with a smile curled on her lips. [color=FireBrick]“Welcome. It is rather surprising to witness yet another traveller here, and more so one known to others. My name is Runa. Pleasure to meet you.”[/color], Runa said, even though neither her voice nor her face expressed any tone of actual surprise or astonishment; her tone in fact remained as calm and neutral as ever and her eyes of two blue cold crystals gazed idly over the newcomer, looking her from head to toes. Seemed like if she was expecting the newcomer to appear in the end, but there was no clear indication towards any of that. After a moment of pause, Runa spoke again, feeling the familiar creeping shade of cold to touch over her skin: [color=FireBrick]“I am afraid though that we would have to delay the proper introductions. The foul spirit has once again caught up on us. We have to move.”[/color], the demon said simply, feeling and seeing both the degenerative effect of the presence of death pure and corrupting, the shade of the fog venomous towards the air itself it seemed as the structures around them all started to expose their fragile and ruinous nature and being. Runa with taking no extra time, went past both the resting adventurers and the newcomer, aiming to reach the far deep end of one of the constructed hallways and with a spear summoned in the hand of hers to break through the seemily firm wood; breaking through it with ease and exposing the tunnel passage leading out of the fortification they were resting in. [color=FireBrick]“Unknown to be exposed into existence, such we will be safe from the pursuing presence of the spirit foul for some time. Yet we have no said time to spare and we should be in haste. After all, you all should not stay here for too long and I see no clear desire in your eyes to stay either way.”[/color], she said and went past back to check up on adventurers again. [color=FireBrick]“A word of advice - do not try to predict this spirit’s motions and how they would to unravel in the future”[/color], Runa said to Akiko as she stepped past by her, [color=FireBrick]“The noise you saw once you were to look into me would be as dense for you to witness again, if you would attempt to do so with this spirit. Concentrate on fleeing at the moment”[/color]. With that said, she stepped towards Thomas and Riku, to check up on them as well, [color=FireBrick]“How is your wound, young knight? And how are your eyes? A moment of reflection of course you would like, but I am afraid we have to move now.”[/color], blue eyes would then look at Riku: [color=FireBrick]“Be sure to help him if he requires it. Follow me through the tunnel. The rest will catch up.”[/color]
