First arrives the yellow, a shimmering oval of yellow light whose colors shift in tone and intensity and turn ever inward upon themselves. Then arrives the humming, an ominous buzzing sound whose source is within great blades clenched in mighty hands. Frightful and ominous as the yellow and the buzzing might be in themselves, more frightful still are the great dusky forms which step outward from the yellow into this place of refuge. A great blow is struck upon the dragon nearly severing one of its wings and crippling its ability to fly. Once more the psionicist feels her abilities shut down in the face of the buzzing of the swords and once more the lion is rudely thrust aside as if a child’s plaything. Great hands seize the woman Rhianneth, jerking her off her feet and stunning her into unconsciousness. The same is done to Brendon. Having taken those for whom they had been sent the giants turn and step once more through the yellow which shimmers briefly and vanishes leaving only the echoing tones of the buzzing of their swords to slowly dissipate in the night air.
ooc: The cold truth of the situation is that there is no chance of rescuing either of them while the Hunger is still active.
Arcades has been seriously wounded and has lost the ability to use his wings. The wounds can be healed quickly by magic, the same cannot be said for the use of his wings which will need a few days to recover. Wyrd has been wounded for 22 points of damage - this was a glancing blow. Ruby will require an hour to recover her psionic powers.
Rhianneth and Brendon are now safe from the Banewolves.
