[Furtuka]

Derick returned the hug after a second.

"Hey, it's what I do. She needed to be stopped."

Derick let go and began walking back upstairs with Chris.

  "Is everyone alright?"

[SeriousConcentrate]

"Everyone except Dag. ...He didn't make it."

Chris looked over at Derick.

"You're going to be a hero, you know. There will very likely be stories about this day and how you struck down that evil bitch."

[Furtuka]

"Everyone except Dag. ...He didn't make it."

"Oh"

"I never got a chance to know Dag, but he seemed like a good guy."

"You're going to be a hero, you know. There will very likely be stories about this day and how you struck down that evil bitch."

"Heh. You think so? That's something to look forward to I guess."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"So... what are your plans? Are you going to reform the wolves?"

[Furtuka]

"Well...   I still have to find out who killed Sarius. Even if I can't avenge him, I would still like to know why he died..."

"But after that, who knows? I might bring The Wolves back but I've been thinking and the mercenary life isn't as appealing anymore really, and I have... other concerns. Maybe I'll open up a school of swordsmanship or something."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"That's an honorable thing to do."

Chris looked over at Derick, slowing his walking slightly.

"...Well, I guess what I'm trying to say is if that... you ever want to settle down somewhere, you could come with me and Ami and Tantallos and live among the Forsaken. I'm not trying to pressure you or anything. I just wanted you to know you could have a home there, if you wanted it."

"You and Raquel."

[Haspen]

@Charlotte:

Charlotte quickly followed Mannan and Marpa. They were at the door leading to Prixima's study when...

"Wait... I heard someone coming from below." They've both stopped and began listening.

Indeed, even Charlotte, several metres behind them, could hear the sounds of many footsteps that stopped abruptly. Then someone drew out a sword. Marpa pushed Mannan away and walked to the corner from behind which the sounds were coming.

She waited with her sword at ready... and waited... suddenly, footsteps-!

"Hyaa!"

"Yaaah!"

*CLINK!*

The two sword-wielders - Marpa and Dalban - were locked in X-like sword mash.

"Stop it, Dalban!" A voice called from behind the corner and the footsteps continued. Leo have appeared - with Alexandra, Tiron, Danya, Matilda, as well as Valor, Seyena, Alexander, Olison and Salvatore right behind him!

"I said, stop!"

"Isn't that Valor back there? Valor!"

//Alexander Jorinn, Valor Inara, Seyena Ikane, Olison Eul and Salvatore Vaughan are now active!

[CrimsonEon]

Olison quickly moved past their flank, Short Spear outstretched and ready as he quickly scanned their surroundings.
: "Captain Marpa, Lord Tunhausen! Are you alright?"

[Furtuka]

"...Well, I guess what I'm trying to say is if that... you ever want to settle down somewhere, you could come with me and Ami and Tantallos and live among the Forsaken. I'm not trying to pressure you or anything. I just wanted you to know you could have a home there, if you wanted it."

"You and Raquel."

"Ah-    ...was it really that obvious?"

"Well I'll keep it in mind I guess. Raquel said she wants to go back to her library back in Ys. Doesn't sound like that bad of a place to live."

[SeriousConcentrate]

Chris nodded.

"Maybe Ami and I will come visit you two soon. We both want to travel a bit before we settle down."

He patted Derick's shoulder as they reached the top.

"Right now, though, there's someone who wants to hug you herself. Go on."

He pushed Derick forward slightly.

[Culise]

At the top, Raquel was still waiting anxiously.  She started forward slightly. 

"Ah, Derick, are you OK?  I...I...here, hold still."  She balanced herself slightly by leaning against a wall as she lifted the staff she was using as a crutch, sending its restorative magic over the swordsman.  As the magic settled in, closing his wounds, she frowned slightly. 

"D...don't you ever worry me like that!"  She stepped forward, seizing him into a tight embrace, ignoring the soot and ash that smudged her own robes.  "Please, don't scare me like that ever again," she murmured softly.

[Gamerboy4life]

"They seem fine enough - where are the others?"

Seyena spoke as Ilya rode up, her staff already held in hand.

[Xanmyral]

"Everyone all roight?" The wyvern rider spoke up as he saw the state of Mannan and this other woman, both looking like they've been to hell and back. "Wha' 'appened?"

[Powder Miner]

Alexander rushed towards the group, helmet having earlier fallen off, carefully making sure not to fall off. Upon approaching Mannan, a rock tumbled away.
:"Where is everyone? Is Prixima dead? What the hell happened?!"

[Gamerboy4life]

"With an explosion like that, someone's dead. Let's hope it's that witch."
