The injured girl was like a dead weight on his arm. Clearly her fighting spirit had been damped by the claws of the gnome.
But at last they made it, the slaying of the head gnome had stunned the crowed of gnomes considerably and many where slayed in the few moments that followed.
It should have been peace, they should have been done with it all.
Then a haunting voice filled the area, . "The girl who tosses flames... She thinks to underestimate us. I want her dead." It was only then that his eyes flicked from the injured hunter/gnome to the woman who 'tossed the flames' and his heart dropped at what he saw.
Phoebe Longhurst. He should have known that the fates would be so cruel.
He didn't have time to dwell on it as Phoebe released the fireball.
The effect was instant, the hunter was dead. And, after a brief moment, the rest of the infected collapsed. Till only those fully in the world of the living remained.
In the light of the flames, both from bodys and alchemy remnants, the was no hiding from her. Shifting his weight to better support Madeline, he give Phoebe a small smile
"Hey..." he said, unsure what else to add.
Phoebe smirked. For something that was so confident, as usual they fell to the righteous flames of God. The inquisitor leaned on her sword, quite satisfied with the outcome. The acrid smell of burning flesh not bothering her at all, or the fact she had essentially murdered someone that could have possibly been saved. Perhaps she had arrived exactly when she had needed to, to save these hunters? Well, she wouldn’t question God or how he worked.
And then God just had to go and ruin her good mood. Her head swiveled to the source of the voice, mouth slightly open as she looked at the man who had addressed her.
“Oh this is just great. Just what I need, an apostate showing up in a town I’ve been sent too. I must have broken some commandment unwittingly for this sort of special torment.” Obvious sarcasm aside, she sheathed her sword with a loud clunk…and promptly decided to ignore him and focused more on the other hunters.
“Someone start looking for injured and get them some medical attention!” The inquisitor shouted, shouting commands to the other hunters out of small habit.
