The pleading was gone now, replaced entirely by anger.

"Dammit Kaldach! Why are these blasted swords more important to you than your life? You don't need to use them to win! And they're destroying you! Just let them go and fight with us! Why is that so hard?"

Rune gave Theo a small smile and a dismissive hand gesture.

"Some of those words were sweet, but I'm more expendable than you know. At least as far as the mission is concerned. Isn't that right Jack?"

She gave him a challenging look, daring him to lie.

"Hmmph. Perhaps, but I still bet the others would consider me a better option than you. After all, we both know I'm expendable."

There was a small glint in her eyes as she said that. Sadness, perhaps? Frustration seemed more likely. Whatever it was, she still clearly meant what she was saying.

Rune had been lost in thought, staring at the bodies around her, hardly noticing Theo talking to her, until she heard some of the discussion going on nearby. Straightening up out of a kneeling position, she walked over.

"You're wrong actually. I'm the best scouting option we have and you know it. I can blend in exceptionally well already and if I need to, well..."

She shrugged and twirled a hand, letting a shower of magic sparks fall out.

"Disguises are nice, magic ones are better."

Sharne stared up at Reggie, eyes flat, dark, emotionless. What did it matter? No words could save her and any words said would only stroke his ego. No. Better to stay silent. A brief consideration of spitting at him but discarded once she realized it would only amuse him. Better to just die a stoic death. Die protecting those she gas sworn to keep safe. An honorable death.

An honorable death destined to be interrupted. As Reggie pulled his sword away, and Esther knelt by her, offering up precious medicine to heal her, she slowly stood up, sheathing her own sword.

"I'm fine. There's no need to worry about me, Esther. I should have never been in that situation in that first place but your concern is touching."
