For those brave souls in the Castle

Anarrima had fled. She could handle no more, and saw nothing but death in their future if they would have stayed to fight on.

Yevaud likewise understood the uselessness of it all, and realized that although he could now brag that he'd gone head-to-head with a Marilith and had not died...that was about as far as his bragging rites would go for now. He was able to get the final word in as it were when realizing that her back had been turned to him while she sought the blood of Vincent, Yevaud was able to deal a special blow to her that really hurt. It caught her off-guard, for the strength behind the attack had been enhanced moreso than his previous attacks, and for a moment she was reeling in the pain of the attack while Vincent escaped from her deadly confrontation. Yevaud grabbed up Tao who was in her wolf form, weakened by the effects that Sombra was having on her. This slowed him down but for a small moment, but that is all that Ssayonele needed to recover her wits.

She turned to look at the runners, and saw Yevaud with the wolf and Vincent right behind him. She lashed out with her tail and struck Vincent in the back, knocking him forward and to his hands and knees. As soon as he fell out of the way, she threw another long-sword at the bladesinger and his pet. The sword flew straight and deadly, finding first the wolf being carried by Yevaud and cutting through her flank and into Yevaud's lower side. He consequently dropped his cargo and Tao fell to the floor with the sword in Yevaud's gut being ripped from him by her weight as she fell with it to the floor, both of them near the doorway. This attack was the last bit of energy that Tao had left, and her wolf form was lost. She turned back into mortal form, the sword lodged in her hip clean through.

Meanwhile two things were happening. Ssayonele was fast approaching Vincent to dice him to little pieces...and Marcos lay in great pain, wondering if he was to be left here alone to die...or would he be the last to die, watching the others be slain first while he could do nothing to stop it.


OOC>>>Vincent - 7 hp for the slap attack.
Tao, the attack made you lose control of your shifted state and you are really hurting right now!
Yevaud - 16 hp for the stab to the side that came out of Tao.
