Christina turned her head to stare at the rest of the room. For people who were nearly present at the murder of a monarch, this group was being awfully flippant.

"You there. Old man. Your eyes are likely better than mine. Keep watch." She moved away from the glass doors, going to stand near the princess. For a moment later she was silent, but eventually her feelings of guilt forced her to speak.

"Mage." She said, her words lacking the earlier hostility. "I have been... unpleasant with you. I apologize for my earlier tone."

Hey, Marrianne is at the tomb, so there's plot AND "plot" there

The princess thing is kinda just filler right now. If you want to do things, the plot is in the mausoleum.

So, I'm not sure how people view the Iron Roses right now. On the one hand, they're an old and powerful religious figure with a storied past, just saved the life of the crown princess, and are in the process of wiping out a plague of lesser undead before it spreads.

On the other hand, there have been at least twelve seperate cases of sexually harassment tonight, several yelling matches, quite a few cases of physical abuse, and lesser all around embarrassment from the whole cast.

I prefer magical replacements. I have a golemancer around who replaced her arm with a stone replica, then animated it.

Watching the darkness outside the window for any sign of movement, Christina spared an occasional glance to the events inside the room. She felt bad for the court mage, after the way she had treated her and now her new humiliation. She had no personal reason to hate the woman, but the tension of the night had forced her old anger to the surface, and the mage was the first person who had offered an opportunity to relieve that. It wasn't fair, and she decided she would apologize to her once this mess was done with.

For now, she kept her distance, keeping one ear out for any signs of danger and the other open to the conversation in the room. The old man apparently had 'stories' to tell, and Christina was interested in spite of herself. She hadn't missed seeing his gaze linger on her and the other women, but that sort of thing didn't bother her. What interested her was that this man was obviously skilled, and listening to him might be important.

Status update from Suku. She's dealing with some life problems right now, so she'll be gone for a few more days.

crossbow bolts bounce off of metal, not sink into.

Remember that this is also combat magic, designed specifically to kill knights in full armor. I doubt they'd overlook something like power output.
