Meanwhile...
Time almost seemed to slow down more and more as the fight continued and Seddi watched plans both succeed and fail.
The clashes doing their job, preventing the wolf from evading the attacks.
Kusanagi failing to clash one attack and getting her CUT technique stolen.
Bernhard's gauntlet becoming severed.
Nox enacting righteous justice as they copy the technique and CUT out the wolf's evasive capabilities.
The ground continuing to rumble as Citrine and Decidueye fight the Land Whale underneath them all.
Seddi runs over to Bernhard, and with a spinning flourish, pulls a Full Restore off his belt to fully heal the mage. "You're not out of this fight yet."
No time for mistakes.
Persist.
Adapt.
Survive.
And then...
That howl of pain. Desperation.
That plea for help, and those pulses from the Boa of Resolution and the Black Braid.
Music: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Theme
As the cowboy locks eyes with the mad wolf desperately fighting back to get control, Seddi takes a deep breath. Time almost seems to stop.
Iron Leaves....she's not too thrilled with the DANGER you're putting yourself in. While the fate of the Region and the World at large rests on What You Do....such relatively minor Conflicts like this Dameon (*Shudders*) with Disproportionate Risk to Reward should be avoided. Because, as just mentioned, a LOT rides on you two Succeeding in your Missions.
Leaves's mission first mindset, preferring to let the city deal with this mess without their assistance. Even now, he can sense she'd prefer he take a direct route to ensuring this wolf cannot pose a threat to them.
"If things go sideways we'll be far worse off or maybe even dead 'fore we even get a shot at taking down their Boss. Mercy and politeness is a privilege of the strong, and we don't know yet how we stack up against them firepower-wise for that to be feasible or a pipe-dream. We're already risking our necks enough pulling a Savoir - why give Luck and Odds more of a bead on putting us 6 feet under or getting our immortal SOULs eaten and damned ? "
James's words echo as well. Why take any more risks than necessary at all?
A flash of light, fist colliding with energy blade in an impossible feat of resilience and resolve.
A young lad wearing a porcelain mask, all but begging that he help these creatures escape from their torment.
Those blue eyes, directly asking him to stop them in their madness. No matter what it takes.
When Seddi let's that breath out, he's made his choice.
Why would they take a risk like this?
Because it's the right thing to do. Not for himself, but for those depending on him.
Nobody said doing the right thing would be easy.
Justice requires Resolve.
And so, he locks eyes with the Mad Wolf once more, as everything around seems to wait in anticipation.
He's got one shot. One chance to save this wolf from this curse and itself.
And he...
Won't...
Miss.
Time seems to speed up again.
As quickly as Seddi ran to the wounded Bernhard, the cowboy is gone just as quickly.
And he's running straight towards the Masked Wolf, Pericot Berry in hand!
So great is his Resolve, he will spend a Will Point to make it more likely that he'll get to stuff this berry down that wolf's throat!
It's time to wrangle this wolf!
