He who hath arrived to the city by mere accident, after losing his head a town or two back.
Some scared girl was the first to find the disembodied head and, luckily, she told the adults. Some less scaredy woman picked him up and brought him back to the local inn.
His body later came in to find him so it was all fine and good. Or at least it seemed like it.
Attaching his head back to his body as if it were a lightbulb, the dullahan walked out into the streets and stretched out.
He was wearing a long, black coat, with only one button well, buttoned, at the front, a white shirt unbottoned at the top, a pair of black pants and a pair of shoes. He also wore a scarf to hide the intersection between his neck and head.
His weapon was resting at his back and his more monster-like arm was covered by the sleeves of his coat.
"Ugh. That was awful, dumbass." The dullahan complained to his body. Seemingly, he had left Edbert in the nearby stables.
"You don't KNOW what I had to go through. I went down a hill, my mouth was filled with leaves, then I fell to a river and felt like I was going to die. A dog then came by and took me with him all the way here.... he was pretty sweet too, so I guess not everything was SO bad. But if you lose me again, I-!"His self berating was interrupted by the sudden screams coming from Viola street.
He raised an eyebrow at first, confused as to what may be happening. When he realized that the panic could actually be because of the blackened beast that had started to become common place around here, he hurried to the scene, taking the scythe into his hand.
When he arrived, he saw a man already training his weapon on one of the beasts, however, there was also a woman in the range of his weapon.
Einri gasped at the sight of this. The man shot, so Einri hurried over to the woman.
Thankfully, the blade of his weapon was able to stop the incoming pellets, at least the second wave of them.
He did not waste half a second when he had already turned sideways to the woman and stabbed the blackened creature right through its snout.
"It's all right now. Go look for refuge!" The dullahan ordered the woman as he lifted the black creature still stuck on his weapon.
"Now!"The woman nodded, still frightened as to what had happened, and then stood up as fast as she could and then ran away. She was leaving an slight trail of blood, but Einri could only heal her afterwards.
He turned a slight glare to Llewelyn, but even he knew that probably shooting her would be the lesser of two evils. He was also probably an ally, and he couldn't afford losing one with how things were looking.
"I guess it is no time for introductions, huh?" The dullahan said, before spinning his scythe and hurling the Blackened beast away from its blade.
"Worry not, for Einri, Knight Of Souls has arrived to aid you!" The man said, before putting his weapon forward. He was too discovered, though.
That thought made Einri's head tilt a bit to the right. Fearing it would fall off, the dullahan was quick to put his hand on top of his head to keep it in place.
An incoming Blackened to his left made him turn to him a little too fast, making his head fall off.
"Yeowch! Hey, dumbass, you dropped me again!" Heeding his head not, Einri's body striked the Blackened beast with the pool of the scythe and then spun it around in his hand, until he brought the blade down on its head. He retrieved the weapon and then hit the beast as if his scythe was a golf club.
He turned again to his head and picked it up, before fitting it in place again.
"Ugh, embarrassing."
