Mannan began walking around, healing up the visible people and then uncover those burried under rubble. Soon, all of them were alive and counscious - more or less.

The only terrible truth was Dag; he was dead before Mannan got to him, and not by the explosion - a piece of rubble seems to have fallen on his head and crushed his skull.

That was the one casualty... and Derick was still missing, too.

//Ami Storm, Charlotte and Gregor von Hexham, Tantallos Forsaken, Edwin Westbringer and Riven are now active as well!

As the vulnerary was applied to Raquel's wounds, she gasped and was brought back to life.

//Raquel Torriani is active!

Marpa, after some shaking, coughed and groaned, lifting herself up a little with her hands.

"Uhh... am I dead yet?"

Let's do this!

"Ha! You think you can defeat ME!? Let's see what you can do!"

The blade struck into Prixima's metallic-flesh, slashing it - and the blade shattered!

"ARRRGH-!!"

The energy blasted around and the room was engulfed in bright light.


*kzzzzt*
MEANWHILE BUT ELSEWHERE... AND ACTUALLY SEVERAL SECONDS AGO:

The horses and flying mounts rode and flew fast toward the Kesselring Fortress, as the forest at their sides grew thicket moment by moment. They just got onto a hill when...

The tallest of Kesselring towers exploded! An earth-shattering boom came after flash of light and plume of dust have risen as half of the tower's top floor crumbled; part of that section went down, crashing into the moat with another terrible noise, whilst larger and smaller stones flew into the air, bombarding the trees behind the moat.

The hurrying marauders stopped as Leo looked at the smoldering tower and the rubble crashing onto the roofs and battlements, further damaging the castle. A silence followed for few seconds.

"Go, go, go! We must ride!" And the group, as if waking from fairy dream, resumed their rush.

*kzzzzt*
MEANWHILE... ELSEWHERE...

Freezing wind blew across the ruined, now ceiling-less tower. There was no other sounds; no groans, no cheers of victory.

Christopher Shields woke up from his state of uncounsciousness, and he could see carnage with his own eyes. Raquel was resting in pool of her own blood, eyes closed, back against the crumbled wall. If she went few inches further, she would plummet to her death.

Tantallos was nearby, under a large stone. Marpa was sprawled on the other side of the room, a cover of dust on her back, with Mannan pinned to the ground with a wooden support.

Chris could notice Charlotte, Gregor, Ami and her pegasus, and other people - all trapped under rubble and wood and red ceramic tiles that once coated the roof of the tower. Even Riven could be seen - her crumpled hat sticking out under a pile of rubble near the entrance to the room. However...

There was one person missing.

Derick was missing.

Did he die in the explosion? Did he plummet to his death? Is he buried somewhere under rubble?

The freezing wind answered - blasting at Chris' face, waking his body from shock and trauma.

//Christopher Shields is now active!

To prevent current and further misunderstandings:

"Giant spiders... I see. Glad to see you all in one piece. Yes, we should sail. To Xios." Julian looked at Dustine.

"Unless you want us to stop anywhere on the way. I wish we could just unearth some treasure and sell it for money." The blonde grumbled.

I just noticed that I didn't notice Giglamesh's re-apply - added!

@Beirus: You can defend yerself from all attacks v: It's just that if you defend someone else, the ranged attacks ignore you and go straight for the target.

Eh, all my terrible jokes involve racism so PTWing instead ;v
