The Gilded Lily
The burned soldier took a shot, but it went wild!
Alana pointed an accusing finger at the next soldier. "Your unforgivable actions in disturbing this innocent place of business will be punished! Whey I talk to your superior, you'll surely be demoted or even discharged!"
12; Soldier 2 is Dazed and loses 10 MP.
Artz stabbed at a guard with his spear, but couldn't get past their defenses. His dog growled and snapped and kept the soldiers at bay.
"Hi, I'm Krovna," said the large woman with the gigantic axe. "Listen, I really loved your dance, but I was too shy to come over at the time. Maybe we can talk later, after I CRUSH THESE WEAK GUARDSMEN!"
With a roar, she swung the axe, and a deep red aura shrouded it! The soldier she struck was staggered, thrown against a wall and all but felled by a single blow!
That soldier fired at her, drawing blood! Another fired wildly, missing. The one Alana had challenged backed towards a window-- and yelled for help!
"Reinforcements!" he called. "They've got an army!"
With a 12, the Soldier has started a six-segment clock. If you don't defeat the soldiers before it's full, reinforcements will arrive! Various characters CAN take actions to remove segments from the clock, which has 1 segment full now.
