Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
Eryn after having her attacks blocked and the Boy starting to shout after a scream had Proclaimed that Zona was dead . Eryn inside felt broken "n no ...no ....noo Non NO No! " Eryn didn't want to believe it , She could not be put to sleep , the nasty men had could not have done it , could they?. Eryn's mind Raced as her emotion waved and plummeted until the laughter of the boy proved something. all Eryn now could see was Red as had one motive, she wanted to now put this boy to sleep forever regardless of anything, any teaching , any reason why this boy should live at all.
Eryn took off her fake arm , casting speed III and I to slow him down and to stop him from jumping far away. then she used Telekinesis II on her fake metal arm she had removed she punched it off and throw it with force at the boys head. like a rocket punch (UC I)
if this worked Eryn would jump on the boy pummel his head as hard as she could. if not she would still attack , regardless , no matter the cost as this boy has no reason to live , he could not be saved.
Livna had made it to the building as she made to the door and started to run up , hoping Eryn would be there. hoping she could help .

Zona regained consciouness. Well, having the blue-haired gal screaming on her ear, it'd be hard for Edelweiss to not notice that detail. Once the wound was fully cauterized she took the poker away from Zona and tossed it towards the fireplace, not caring enough to go properly place it back, and went to fetch something from the corner of the room - the leg of Zona's pants that had been torn along the actual leg (and was still being worn by the severed limb) and her boot.
"Nah, take some vacations for as long as you need." The redhead replied with a grin herself wouldn't be able to tell if amused or sad as she knelt down next to Zona again, tearing the fabric of the pant leg into improvised bandages to cover that wound, not that it would make the best bandages in the world but it was better than leaving it in the open. "You did well, Zona. Lets just get you to a doctor, and then home." Edelweiss could see Zona had an arrow stuck on the collarbone area as well, but that was tricky and small enough that she figured it'd be better to leave it alone and not try to pull the arrow out at least until they got Zona to a proper medic. She could patch up people well enough, but actually healing them was a whole different story and Zona really could use some magic healing now. A visit to Elowyss was set first thing on her list of priorities as soon as they can leave that place.
And Zona better have no complains about being carried like a princess, because that same arrow made it impossible for the redhead to give her a piggyback. And walking on her own was out of question. J was waiting for them by the door, and acompanied the two as Edelweiss started making the way back outside.

Elaine went pale at the sound of a scream ripping through the air. Zona.... Her eyes narrowed as a look of fury crossed her face. "You and your little friends will all be dead by nightfall!" She hissed at him before bolting off towards the house. Fear overtaking her anger as she hurriedly slipped her daggers back into their sheaths and gripped the doorframe on her way in. Her claws gouged four long marks into the frame as she stepped inside only to be greeted by the scent of blood but she couldn't see any of her guildmates just yet. "No...." She ran her hands through her hair anxiously. Upon hearing footsteps she looked towards the noise. And what she saw nearly dropped her to her knees in relief and horror.

Gus continued to laugh, completely unaware of what was coming straight for his head. Just as the metal arm was about to hit, Gus turned his head some and saw the oncoming arm. It hit dead center, breaking Gus's nose and knocking him out cold, giving him a concussion for sure and possibly putting him in a comma. The boy fell to the ground with a thud and a smile on his face, thinking his mission was accomplished before blackness took over.
Zona groaned some as Edelweiss picked her up, most of it was from the pain but a small bit of it was for the way the woman was carrying the winged Ander. Zona closed her eyes some as she tried to find a somewhat comfortable position as the group began to make their way down the steps, every movement hurt and Zona was ready to just give up and flop on the ground... Ahh... The nice cold ground, that could be nice. But the small sound of an open door and pacing drew Zona's attention to see a familiar brunette go down on her knees. Zona knew that the girl went down on her knees because of her, but did she really look that bad? Probably... Not only were her wings limp and dragging on the ground but she did have the arrow in her collarbone and missing a leg. "I look... that bad hu?" Zona said to Elaine in between breaths as she let a small smile form on her lips.
Zona then noticed the girl seemed to have new cuts and bruises. Something happened wen she was up in that room, because the men they were facing off would have been easy to take down and wouldn't have done damage like that... "What... What happened out there?" She asked as the smile left her face.

"So the kid was that tough of an opponent?..." Edelweiss thought aloud when Elaine entered into view, the scratched state of her young worker not passing unnoticed. She had hoped to have left the easiest one for them to take care of... A mistake. Sigh. At least Elaine was whole still.
"Elaine I know this sight might be a shock for you, but Zona needs a medic urgently so you have to stand up and hold on for a little longer." After they take Zona to a doctor, and everything settles down again... only after... Then all of them could have an emotional breakdown if they need it. Somewhere safe that won't get them killed, maimed nor arrested. "Her bow and arrows are still in the room behind. Fetch it for us please. Are the others still busy outside?" They might not be, the tremors had stopped and everything was silent. But that wasn't enough of a clue to give the redhead any surety.

Livna made it to the top of the stair , she was shocked at what had Happened " Zona! " the young nurse Rushed over and looked at the stump that a leg used to be at "ok ok ok , i can do this , i did do my own arm " Livna wispered under her own breath in panic "please hold her still , am going to try use my healing magic to lessen the pain, I hope " she said as she began to cast Healing II on Zona as she hoped this would help, if not she would have to used the pre-made bandages in her bag.
Eryn watched as the boy fell the ground , she walked over and saw he was asleep , but for how long? Eryn picked up her fake arm. thoughts in her head to end the boy raced in her head of how he was out to hurt her friends , Eryn was about to Raise his arm but then she stopped . she had already won this fight as the boy was now defenseless , abandon by his friends , there was no point of killing him now , Eryn pulled another rope from her bag and tried the boy up again and this time she took the time to make sure his arms and legs and just left him there . she know the other informants or spies would take him away . she had used up a lot of her own self in this one day as she felt weak, she needed to rest as got to the door of the building but instead of going in she placed her back against the way and slid down to the floor "zona .... please be...ok " Eryn prayed quietly as she rested her eyes drained from the fight and panic.

(Sorry, last week of the semester...finals are really getting to me...)Jasper regained consciousness with another exaggerated gasp, when exactly he had lost it was far beyond him; all he knew was by the time he came back Elaine was gone, Eryn had restrained their boy-sized assailant, and the battle was over. For a second, he had forgotten why they were there but the memory came back in a flash.
"Zona!" The blue-haired assassin yelled at the top of his lungs before turning towards the building Cyran's men had taken her to. "Please be okay. Please be okay." He cried over and over in his head. "Please be okay." His bare feet padded swiftly against the hard asphalt of the streets, only pausing briefly when he stepped on the occasional loose pebble. "Please be okay." Worry welled-up in his chest and he swore he could feel his heart beat in his throat. "Please be okay!" With a final crescendo in his thoughts, Jasper rushed through the hotel's threshold.
He dashed throughout the building recklessly, ricocheting against a few of the walls like a pet searching for a toy that had just bounced out of sight. By the time, he had found Zona, three of his other companions were surrounding her, one of which was working on repairing the winged Ander's leg. He stopped at the doorway for a second to catch his breath.
"Zona!" He shouted, relieved. Tears began to pool in his eyes and he went to hug the injured girl before halting in front of her, arms outstretched. His smile quickly contorted into a look of fear and revulsion.
"...Y-Your leg..." He whimpered staring at the stump and trying his best not to vomit. A tear made its way down his cheek, though not entirely out of sadness for his friend's condition or his past worries. The bloody stump terrified him; he could accept almost everything about his current company but something about this change was...wrong. In his mind, he knew he could never look at Zona the same way ever again.

Elaine didn't smile at Zona's sore attempt to joke. As relieving as it was to see that she was trying it didn't help the girl's mood any. She consisted of a deadly quiet. She looked to her leader as she spoke, her green eyes taking keen focus to keep her mind off of the unsettling sight of her friend's missing leg. "No, the fighting is over for now..." Just as she said this Jasper appeared looking as mortified as she felt. Elaine pushed herself to her feet and moved carefully around Zona and Edelweiss, avoiding her limp wings and she disappeared into the room Edel had mentioned.
Elaine stopped dead in her tracks as she saw a man dead on the floor, an arrow protruding from between his eyes. The other things decorating the room besides him were a large pool of blood, a poker slowly dimming as the heat faded from it, a chair, and some broken bits of glass. Zona's bow lay in the midst of it all. The teen slowly walked towards the weapon and picked it up, collecting the quiver and it's disheveled arrows as well. She refused to touch the one on the man's body. If Zona wanted it bad enough they could send someone else to retrieve it. Besides, the bastard deserved to be buried with it. He weaved his own fate. Shaking her head Elaine shoved these thoughts from her head to turn on her heel and walk right back out the door, slinging the bow over her head to let it hang from her shoulders along with the quiver. She came back and stood patiently around where her guild leader was waiting for more orders. If she had none, she would turn to Jasper and stand by him.

Zona let out a sigh as she realized her sad attempt at a joke didn't do anything to help cheer up Elaine, and it didn't seem to help when Jasper came darting in with the same mortified look to his face, that and the look that made it seem like he was going to puck any minute. Zona took a breath just as Livna began to heal her, or at least try to. The initial magic shot though her wound and made everything hurt more, causing Zona to cringe up some, then the pain lessened some as the magic went on. Though the healing did nothing for the actual wound it did help with that pain some, just enough for her to bare it. "Thanks but you don't need to was your magic on me." Zona said with a smile as she closed her eyes some. Man was she tired... "I'm.. I'm sorry for all this guy... I didn't mean for any of this to happen." Zona said as she kept her eyes closed, "I thought He was gone..." She mumbled...

Edelweiss kneeled down when Livna offered to heal Zona's leg, giving a break to her arms. Zona might not be fat, but accounting for those wings being out and limp she also was - pardon the pun - no featherweight either. It seemed like Livna's nursing wouldn't be enough though even if it worked as a painkiller, so a trip to a full-fledged healer mage (preferably Elowyss) was still in order. Jasper seemed to be taking the news even harder than Elaine had, and the redhead sighed out of both frustration and sadness while standing back up again, the winged Ander still in her arms and going to be princess-carried. "Jasper, we're heading out. Yes it's bad. She needs a medic. Sorry, but we need to move, now." Before others come, before there are people on the streets once again and all of them risk getting themselves and each other in even more danger - mainly Zona, who's both severely wounded and with wings flared out for the world to see. She wouldn't ask Jasper to pretend it was alright, nor even ask he doesn't puke on the way - if he needs to, he can - as long as they do that while running.
J Wellson followed Elaine back into the room while the girl retrieved Zona's bow and quiver. Looking at the corpse in the room though, he spotted the arrow still sticking out from his forehead like a strange beansprout and walked up to there instead. Being grossed out was not an excuse to leave it there; it could be used again, and besides the waste, in an investigation that could be used to trace the happenings here back to Zona. Needless to say it was not a good possibility. "You forgot one." He told Elaine, a plain even tone of voice as he lightly tugged at the projectile. Seeing how it was stuck in quite deep he stomped on the dead body's face using his foot as extra leverage and pulling until the (literaly) bloody arrow was released from the skull and was safe in his grip, leaving a small crevice oozing dead blood along a visible footprint (and possibly broken nose) on Cyran's face. The arrow was then tucked by J back into the quiver while Elaine walked away.
"J, call over a 'cleaning' team here as well. Make sure Morpheus is present, the mess was intense enough it'll require his skills." Buried? No, they'd make sure there would be nothing left to be buried, found, or recognized as a person altogether. "...Also... if the kid outside is still alive, take him to Office 2." And then Edelweiss' attention turned back to Zona once again when she started apologising. "There were two who escaped still, but we caught quite a number. They'll speak, or we'll make them, and find those fleeing flies. You just focus on staying conscious and recovering some strenght (and pull your wings out of sight as soon as you can, they're heavy)."
Livna pulled back to see that her healing didn't help "no no , wait the Papa may help , he can help , he is a doctor , please i can get you to him." she offered to guide the way , Zona's health came 1st as she got out a map "its not far we can get her there " she said as she pointed to the mark on the map.
Eryn had passed out from pushing herself so far , she had never do so much magic over a long time as well as all the attacking she had done.

Jasper swallowed hard - almost comically so, even given the dark circumstances - before given his leader a shaky nod.
"Y-Yeah, r-right." He stammered as he turned towards Edel and Zona to follow them, distancing himself far enough from the pair so that he wouldn't need to catch any unwanted glances at Zona's newly amputated limb yet still close enough to catch her if Edel happened to slip, not that she would, or that he'd want to for that matter.
When she joined them, the juggler glanced over to Elaine with drenched and terrified eyes. "D-Do you think they c-can fix her?" He asked her, playing with his claws nervously, and leaving tiny nicks on his fingers in the process. By now, tears were streaming freely from his eyes. He groaned apprehensively already knowing - and loathing - the answer. "Please, just, lie to me. Just this once." He thought silently, shivering in dread.

Elaine fell into step beside Jasper quietly. She heard the shaking in his voice and looked up as calmly as she could. His mortified expression made her wince in sympathy. She took a deep breath before reaching out to pry his hands apart. "Enough." She murmured examining the nicks for a moment before looping her arm through his, a move to help to steady herself. She merely nodded to him as an answer. They could fix her up to a point. "She will be fine." It wasn't the truth but yet it wasn't a lie. She gave him a hopeful smile before letting him go, as long as he didn't try to claw his own hands up again. The bow around her shoulder weighed strangely heavy, she shifted it uncomfortably.

Zona smirked slightly as she heard Edel talk about staying conscious and bringing her wings in, even if it was under her breath. Zona closed her eyes some and tired to pull them in but in the end all that really did was drain her that much more. "Sorry... Don't think I could do that yet." She said as she kept her eyes closed, listening to what was happening. Livna said something about a doctor, but that was up to Edel if she wanted to drag Zona there or not. She continued to listen as Jasper and Elaine talked... Did they really think she would kick the dirt that easily? Well then again, she had no clue if she would have made it before Edelweiss came in. Zona wanted to say something to the two of them but ended up deciding against it, and instead decided to just listen to everything happening around her.

"Livna as much as I trust you wish to help, we're not really an inconspicuous group right now." Even not counting Zona's spreaded wings among them they were all either haggard or bloody (or both), even if not by their own blood. Looking at herself, Edelweiss felt like she had receibed a blood baptism from Zona while cauterizing her leg and carrying her - the only partially dried red liquid was starting to scab and appeared blatantly visible against her light-colored shirt. This is why she usually didn't do this kind of work in day clothes. "If we catch more attention, we'll also catch more trouble. We're taking the backalleys, far from people. Her leg needs healing, and she's got an arrow stuck still, so a magic medic may be for the best. Can I trust you to fetch Eryn and catch up to us instead? And maybe cast some more painkiller spells on the way if needed."
