Cayansa, New Hallandren, Crater
Cayansa nodded, then turned to see if there were any nearby locals who might be better equipped with knowledge. "In that case-"
Someone's coming! Reyx called, flickering a little way above the rubble. They didn't speak with urgency, but there was more than a passing caution in their voice.
"Who? Anyone helpful?"
Reyx just nodded - well, shone - a little way along the crater. Maybe.
The crowd of dusty civilians was parting, people lurching away with a determined look on their faces. Not my problem anymore, they seemed to be saying. Others with carefully expressionless faces were spilling into the crater, each wearing coloured cloaks over the same leather uniform. They moved in quick steps, not quite a march but not far off, and encircled the crater, silvery spearheads glinting in the light.
One woman in a cloak the colour of blood stepped forward. Even from this distance, Cayansa could see the frown slashed across her face like an old scar.
They look ... official, Cayansa thought to Reyx, numb.
Hopefully, Reyx drifted higher, then added. Their badges say New Hallandren Guard.
Cayansa nodded, and stepped in front of Lux. "I hope these people will be friendly," they whispered to him, "But if you don't already have a plan to run, now could be a good time to come up with one."
