Avalon turned around to face Kyalia and Fenn and was going to detest their assistance, especially the witch. However, the loud scream outside caused him to look towards the door and he grimaced. He then looked to Fenn and Kyalia and sighed. "Fine, just don't make me regret accepting your help." He said. He already regretted it but they did need all the help they could get. He then looked to his kinsmen and gestured once more for them to proceed. "Sounds like the attack has already started...." Funny part is they were witch hunters and they were accepting the help of one. He smirked at that thought. "Corellon forgive me." He said mostly to himself as he stood out side and looked towards the eastern section but he did not have to, to spot the enemy. Large demonic like spiders known as Retrievers were upon the walls devastating the ranks of the knights. Only one thing he could do now before he completely left the tavern. He glanced over at the bartender. "Lock the doors when we leave,... everyone who is not well enough to fight stay inside." He ordered and then removed his bow from his back . With that last set of words he turned back around to face one of the walls and proceeded to make way to it until he remembered where Ishmael was. The paladin may have needed help, their help. He changed direction making way for the eastern tower. Nova, Ariol, Elendil and Dorian all followed him. The four elves drew their weapons. Only Ariol, Elendil, and Dorian had weapons on their backs to draw out. Nova conjured up her own weapons. Dual flame swords that seemed to not burn her hands. They all followed their leader Avalon as they made for the eastern tower. There was no walking involved but running. They just hoped they got to Ishmael before the demons killed him. Hotaru heard the scream as well as Cassandra. The scream was unnatural and evil. Hotaru knew it and felt their lives threatened by what it came from. What was it they were supposed to do anyways? She would have to use her magic to protect them and she looked to Cassandra moving closer to her as the dark elf was already doing. She then aimed her hand towards the door and mumbled a few words. "Black Rose". Then a black rose shot from her hand its stem digging into the wall and it's effect activated. That should protect them for awhile. However, she felt hiding in here was not good for them. They should be out their helping the people fight the evil that had come. Her thousand pedals would make this evil think twice.
