Cayansa, New Hallandren, Crater
The guards still seemed to have the emotional capacity of a dun sphere, but some of them did head over to the rubble. With a few muttered words, entire boulders were rolling free, as if Lashed by a Windrunner, perhaps?
No, Reyx thought, None of them have a spren bond, and especially not a Windrunner one.
Kai summoned his plate, the ropes around him dropping into tatters. "Hey! I'll go with you, but not bound like a criminal."
Uh... should we also be trying to escape? Reyx asked, glittering rapidly. They don't seem the friendliest, and everyone else has already...
I don't know. If a fight breaks out, I won't be of much use whether I'm arrested or not. But I'll prepare something. No one had ever actually taken the healing fabrial from them, so now they used one of the unblunted metal edges to start to saw through the ropes. The guards holding them up didn't notice - did they notice anything? - and everyone else seemed engaged in conversation. Scadrial? Still not a name they recognised.
"The name is Midas," the head guard said, grabbing Kai's hand in a strong grip. "And the Pits gave me a new life."
Cayansa! He's doing something! CAYANSA!
The glow of Stormlight swirled up from Kai's body, spinning towards Midas as though caught in a tiny highstorm of its own. "What are you doing?" Starseeker demanded.
Okay. Probably untrustworthy. Noted. Cayansa tugged at the rope and one of the layers fell away, the others frayed nearly to breaking point. Reyx, see if there's somewhere the guards might have overlooked nearby.
