Asuna shakes off the sudden urge to sing the praises of overthrowing the monarchy and securing the means of production.
Instead, she focuses her whole mind, honing her will like steel. Asuna concentrates, dancing across the group like a leaf on the wind, phasing out all the rest of the field to focus on her target, like a laser target. Like a sword, Asuna had one singular purpose.
Showing this idiotic would-be kidnapper from Kaisei that when he intended to mess with the living bodily incarnation of Asuna Yuuki, the
Lightning Flash, she didn't
just inherit her looks. She inherited her
speed.
(Vlad's Daunt activates!)
(Jarvis' Charisma activates!)
(The Lightning Flash strikes!)

Roll: Autohit!
Crit: 10, crit!
Asuna deals 19 damage!
Lancer C is defeated!
The goblin collapses in a heap, groaning. She was far too quick; even without aiming to kill, even without aiming to maim, she was far,
far too fast, the one blessing the goddesses above had granted her she could really call a 'blessing'.
And speaking of goddesses....
Serena, for her part, continues screaming and panicking as the enemies approach behind them, while healing her meatshields. Reaching towards Keith, she starts screeching.
"KEEEEEEEEEEEEITH! Don't let them hurt meeeee! I'm a goddess! I'm too beautiful for thiiiiiis! D-do your jobs and protect me!"Serena heals Vlad for 13 HP!
And then Vlad, hoping to drown out the noise of the useless goddess, performs a little metal for his fellow vampire.
Vlad performs Keith!
Keith may move again!
Keith, for his part, roots through the abandoned cart, now that the other guards are absent. True to Rosencrantz's comments, the cart is full of various pieces of junk; old, clearly wrecked weaponry, various herbs, powders and medicines used for male enhancement, pain relief and one substance Keith's simultaneously sure he's familiar with, pretty sure is illegal in six of the Seven Kingdoms, and completely unsure if he's actually taken it before. Two things, however, stand out, which may well be the only two things of value in the entire cart.
Item Get!Acquired 1x Reckless Ring!Acquired 1x Midgardian Marzipan!A special cake baked in Midgardia for the impromptu wedding ceremonies often held in the drunken stupors common to people who visit Midgardia, known for its expensive price, its remarkably delicious taste and being smashed into the faces of the drunken newlyweds. Heals 15 HP, removes debuffs, cannot be used on allies with 0 HP. QL 5.
The enemies continue moving. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern's squabbling can be heard further up the road, far enough up that all you can tell of the squabbling is that the older brother seems to possibly be cursing out the younger one for doing something intensely stupid.
Behind the three larger people, one of the smaller goblins is pointing a chubby finger at Asuna.
"That's her! That's the one! Let's get her!"
The sword-wielding goblin speaks up.
"That's....that's a terrible idea. C-can we just go-"
"But the reward, man! The REWARD!"
"T-that's not-"
His protests are, sadly, ignored.
Good on him for trying, however.
