Though their black mage had the fortune of not requiring water to live, the fact remained that Eve was still just one member, thus it was in their best interest to wisely preserve the water supply, especially as they entered the desert region proper. As a rather well-seasoned adventurer even before her encounter with the Kirins, the faux eidolon was no stranger to the constant nuisance of the Blightbeasts, though they didn't pose any meaningful threats. Still, the faster the Blight could be culled, the better, one step at a time, including this sandy excursion.

It must be one of her 'siblings', a fellow pseudolon, one carrying the essence of... [color=d3d3d3][b]"ODIIIIN...!!"[/b][/color] The dragoness roared with every bit of Bahamut's fury infused within her, as if responding to the monstrous swordsman's own bestial howl. Even as the other - presumed - pseudolon charged forward, arcane energies were already crackling between Eve's palms. [color=d3d3d3][b]"Blizzaga!!"[/b][/color] In an effort to both wound [i]and[/i] slow the bladed berserker down, hails upon hails of freezing stalactites launched off Project Grayscale's form, hurling through the hot desert air toward Project Revenant!
