There is a click, a soft urging, almost whispered too soft to hear, but you can sense that you are being beckoned somewhere, lead to an elaborate open door with wood panels and great curls of gold leaf. You cannot see what is beyond the door, but it smells sour and sharp. Before you can turn over the thought of should you or shouldn't you, if you are the kind, there is a quiet push at your back and through the door you go . . .

[ ... ah. Scissors, why...

Do I have it memorized? ...Well, either way, let's try towards cute birdthing. If possible. ]

You do not, but you certainly had the impression that you did, hmm . . . It isn't too difficult to pick a path through, though. The smell of rotting flesh and old blood gets stronger as you go on.

Maybe just a little further. ]

There isn't any warning as a bone suddenly lashes out, lightning fast aiming to take her head off.

[ JESUS WHAT

Reels back instantly, a small magic circle appearing on the point of impact-- mere centimeters from her face. GOOD SHIELD BEST SHIELD ]

Ghk--!

[dramatispersonae]

It gives a low hiss, almost disappointed, but it is ready to go again. Come closer, my pretty . . .

[ m-materializing her sword because no

BUT CONTINUING ON, SURE. Now that she knows you're here shielding is easy. ]

Stop that.

[dramatispersonae]

There is an absolute hail of blows coming at her, all aimed precisely for her neck. You better be careful, that shield may be starting to crack . . .

[ IT IS ALL MAGIC CIRCLES but jesus this is hard to keep up with. Parrying with her blade, when she can, though she's not very good with it... ]

--Why are you doing this?!

[dramatispersonae]

Snnk, the bone passes through the shield suddenly and takes her head off cleanly. (Fun fact: Did you know that your brain is still alive for a few seconds after decapitation? The more you know!

[ ...THANK YOU

THAT WAS LOVELY, I NEEDED THAT. ]
