(ooc: Hey people! Good news! I'll be posting more.

Bad news! It's because the dude I've been dating for the past nine months dumped me. [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] Good news! I'm not really depressed about it. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Bad news! If the cops find his body I might not get to post for a while!

Alri

Alri saw Xiang abandon him from the corner of his eye as he parried. He grimaced. A thousand voices screeched like banshees in his mind. Save yourself! Go on, die, end it! Stand up and fight, you can win! Sayn, you can't lose Sayn! Where's she being taken? But one voice was shriller than all the others in the wretched, cacophonous requiem. What if Xiang is an agent of the enemy?

Then he knew what he had to do. He had to win and he had to protect Irinisayn. Without her, the walls distinguising life from hell would crumble, all battles would be lost, and the whispers that plagued him now would be drowned in dying cries.

Xiang carried the tiefling woman out of sight. All the better, now the servant of the ninth can't see this!

Alri stepped back into a ready stance, swung his blades fervishly about his ears and cried in a dark growl, "Ha-zag'a all znam!" The blades suddenly glowed with a sickly, acidic shade of green, dripping sparks. He then made a violent lunge at the beast, slashing the swords in a precise cross through the collar and chest of the minotaur. When the arcs were complete the creature's carcass was nowhere to be seen.

He quickly resheathed the blades. Now he had to focus on catching Xiang. His eyes darted to the wagon. Doubtlessly nearly everything was ruined. One of the horses lay still with a plank sticking awkwardly out of its throat. The other struggled a few feet away, trying to free itself from the carnage and wreckage. Alri decisively dashed forward, unhooking the heavy animal from its trappings. The horse quickly clamored up and tossed its head, assuring the elf that it was still sound. Alri then slipped onto its back, roughly tugged the long reigns and spun the roaned horse around, nudging it off quickly in the direction Xiang had carried Irinisayn.
