[color=fff79a][i]By the Demon Lord, what have I gotten myself into?[/i][/color], ran the thought of Kerry Maros, a Hornet mamono, as she came upon the sight of Sanjo Town.....or what was left it.

She, along with an owl mage named Valeriya, had arrived late in Otomo yet, as soon as they introduced themselves to Lady Kyouko, they were hastily put on boat to Shizuyama, tasked with linking up with the taskforce and to help them as fast as possible. As soon as their boat made port, the duo took to the skies toward Sanjo Town, where they would come upon and witness the aftermath of the Varjan invasion: a bombarded beach littered with the dead, barricades completely destroyed and the town proper on fire. The only silver lining to seen in this hellish landscape was that it was mostly deserted, meaning all of the locals must've evacuated. The only ones left were the invading Varjans and the stragglers..... and said stragglers, separated into two groups, [b]just so happen[/b] to be the very taskforce they were meant to regroup with.

[color=fff79a][i]And they are getting surrounded.....Great.[/i][/color]

[color=fff79a]"Go help the larger group, I got these two!"[/color], she called out to Valeriya before breaking off toward the smaller group, which consisted of a small boy and.... wait, is that an angel? What the hell are they doing out here? Shaking that thought off for now, Kerry saw that the duo was already surrounded and the Varjans were engaging them. Thinking quickly, she pulled out Dusk and began channeling her mana, air currents swirling along the length of the black spear as she dived down.

[color=fff79a]"YOU TWO! GET DOWN!"[/color], Kerry called out to the duo. It was the only warning they'll get.
