“We have to get in contact with the other teams,” you declare. “Only question is how?”

“Do we have time to get to both of them on foot?” Sabrina asks, gazing most of the way across the valley.

You shake your head. “Not enough time before daybreak to do it without drawing on our yōki. We'd lose any advantage we might have bought ourselves with the pills and the planning, and we'd compromise all our locations.”

“What if only you went?” Emma asks.

You shake your head again. “I'd have to use my yōki too in order to get to Helen fast enough. If we had a way to signal them visually that'd be ideal, but I don't think we can use the reflection off our swords... they're not polished enough, the light is too weak, and they're all in concealment like we are.”

You glance at Serana, who's moving her hand to get your attention.

“You have an idea?”

She nods, a grim look on her face.

YOU WOULD HAVE TO GO IN ALONE.

“I'd considered that,” you admit. “Trying to talk to Sabela.”

Serana shakes her head.

NO. OTHER TEAMS WILL SENSE YOU. LIKE BEACON.

“And Helen at least would know something had gone awry with the plan,” you realize. “Emma, do you think that would convince Galeria to hold off her attack?”

Emma nods. “Unless she's already prepared her technique, it just might.”

>It would compromise us. I'd prefer to try and signal Galeria's team, since she's the unknown here.
>I'll go alone, and stop hiding my yōki. That should serve as a warning, and Sabela won't let me die.

Inb4 this is a very elaborate hit on Sabela by the Organization via using Noel as a hostage she needs to protect while giving an opening to the other Abyssal to exploit

i mean, she's "Trueheart" and what reason does she have to lie

>>3410184
I'm just saying self overestimation is a thing. What she believes doesn't necessarily have to be true.

Also I don't think her name has anything to do with her character so much as her abilities.

>>3410271
ah, i misinterpreted. also i'm in a very trusting/optimistic mood rn, so I'm just gonna hope things turn out alright ^-^'

Fairly certain if we went out alone we'd get ambushed by the other Abyssal.

>>3409893
>Other

I say we flare our yoki as high as we dare and use it to run. Give our squad our plan and have them go get the others out.

The narrative we will give The Organization, if we need to, is that once we detected the second Abyssal, we were prepared to risk sacrificing ourselves so our comrades would sense something was amiss and could fall back stealthily while still under suppression effects for just a little longer. Meanwhile we would be devoting our all to escaping and drawing them away, maybe even surviving: we'd have a better chance than most being the only single digit defensive type afaik.

In reality, and hopefully unbeknownst to the org, we have a little insurance in that Sabela would probably recognize our yoki and be unlikely to let anyone chase us down and murder us.

Please guys, back me up on this one if you think it has any merit. Queen isn't considering for one off write-ins, e.g. even though someone wanted to plan for this kind of scenario back in the Q&A with Galeria, we still wound up with no way to call off the attack.

>I'll go alone, and stop hiding my yōki. That should serve as a warning, and Sabela won't let me die.

>>3409893
You take a deep breath, and release it with a sigh. “If I go over there and make a show of my yōki it may serve as a warning for Helen and her team. But I want to contact Galeria's team as well.”

“Serana, can you lead the team there?”

She nods silently. YES.

“Then that's the closest thing to a plan we have,” you nod resolutely. “I'll be fine. Worry about yourselves and your fellow warriors first and foremost. Understood?”

OF COURSE. Serana smiles at you serenely. YOU SAVED MY LIFE. TO REPAY THAT KINDNESS BY SAVING OTHERS IS RIGHT.

You can't help but smile as you gesture back. I'VE BEEN BLESSED WITH GOOD FRIENDS.

“Follow Serana's lead,” you tell Sabrina and Emma. “My only other orders to you are to survive, and to help as many others as possible to do the same.”

“Go.”

You take the lead, moving first as you run down the slope as fast as you can without using your yōki at all. That will keep the Abyssal Ones from noticing where your team has been hiding, at least long enough for them to get away from that spot. Then, at the edge of the village, you release your yōki to about ten percent.

“Hello, Sabela,” you greet your mother with a professional distance.

She glances at you, and shakes her head. “Of course you'd be sent here. Just my luck.”

“I agree that this is an unfortunate situation,” you sigh. “Which is why I came out here in person.”

“I see,” Sabela nods thoughtfully. “So you're trying to cover for those friends of yours. I hope it works.”

“As do I,” you frown, realizing what that implies. If Sabela could sense them, that's a problem.

“I understand that this may be a bad time,” she sighs, “but I would like you to do something for me.”

You narrow your eyes. “What do you mean?”

“I would like you to show me your black card.”

“As if she'd do that,” a familiar voice contends.

“Helen?” you ask, staring at her in disbelief. “Why are you here?”

“I had my team withdraw,” she informs you. “They'll at least have the defense of numbers once they meet with Serana, which you don't.”

“As if I'd let you do something this foolish on your own.”

>>3411916

>>3411916
“You're blessed with good friends,” Sabela nods gently. “I'm glad.”

“And that's why I'm not gonna let her do something else that stupid!” Helen insists loudly, far more forcefully than you'd have expected from her. “As if she's stop in the middle of a mission to unscrew her pommel and open up her sword just so that she could entertain your...”

“... what are you doing?”

“It looks like she's doing what Sabela asked her,” a new voice observes, as a mousy-haired young woman turns around the corner of one of the abandoned homes. “Hello, Sabela.”

“Hello, Constanzia,” your mother replies, not really looking at the newcomer. “I'm busy at the moment, would you mind waiting?”

“Not at all,” she replies. “We have plenty of time.”

You finish twisting off the pommel of your sword, exposing the hollow cavity inside the long hilt and the rounded tang that fills up almost the entire space leaving a tiny amount of room into which an envelope can be slid.

Only after topping the threaded end of the pommel, you realize that there is no envelope.

You freeze.

“What is it?” Helen asks.

After a few seconds, you glance up at Sabela. “It must have been when they called me to Lavinia, and had me relinquish my sword... don't tell me they called me there specifically for the purpose?”

She nods. “I'm afraid so. They used the same trick on me, many years ago.”

“That's the entire point of the Organization then,” you realize, already screwing the pommel back on. “That's why the black card system exists, why they subject us to horrors and torture, it's how they choose our missions and select our warriors.”

“It's why they picked twins at first,” Sabela adds with a nod. “And why they chose you, Noel. Right now, you're their running experiment. I was a fool not to realize that Tomas knew about my indiscretions regarding Tiberius.”

“I thought that I was giving you the only chance you had at a normal life.”

“What is she talking about, Noel?” Helen demands quietly.

“This whole thing was a trap,” you realize. “The information that the Organization gave us had to have been flawed... we have to get out of here.”

“If this is an ambush...” Helen mutters, before her eyes suddenly widen and she raises her voice to a booming shout. “Above us!”
>1/2

Oh hey, *there's* where that other shoe went...

>>3412350
You barely notice the shadow on the ground between you and Helen as it grows, and the two of you manage to evade at the last possible second. A heavily-built woman has been apparently dropped from above... where a yōma with wings is now circling.

“I can only sense Sabela and Constanzia...” Helen growls. “Could this be... yōki synchronization?”

“Her sister is here too somewhere!” you realize. “Run!”

“That's right!” Constanzia agrees in a cheerful tone, firing a massive bony rod from her palm that impales your mother through her head. The force of the blow lifts her clean off her feet and nails her to the building behind her. “Sorry, but I lied when I said you had plenty of time.”

“As if we'd let you escape!” the awakened being who was nearly dropped on top of your heads a few seconds ago cackles. She releases a massive burst of yōki, distorting her features as she begins to transform into a monstrous creature with what appear to be bony scythes for forearms.

The scene is interrupted by a laugh, quiet at first but growing into a loud, confident roar.

“And here I thought your mind couldn't grow any duller,” Sabela taunts Constanzia, pulling herself free of the house's wall and taking the bone lance with her. “You tried the same thing when I awakened, remember? Why would you think it would work?”

Sabela simply pushes the lance the rest of the way through her head, before pulling it out the back and throwing it at the awakened being before it can attack you or Helen.

“Run!” she shouts. “We'll talk more later!”

Then her own yōki releases, and it feels as if a massive ocean wave has crashed over your body. Her form doesn't change all that dramatically, at least in terms of size she only grows a few inches and over all she still looks vaguely human. But her skin turns a deep shade of gray, and her hair solidifies into a mass of writhing tendrils, each of which looks as sharp as the head of a spear. A skirt of what looks like armored, chitinous plates protect her body around the waist.

Her eyes glow yellow, as if lit from within by the fires of Hell.

“My,” Constanzia muses as her own body begins to change as well. “How nostalgic.”

Sabela, in the mean time, raises her head and glances over your shoulder. “Does she have a death wish?”

Is that... Galeria?

>You need to withdraw. Rejoin the other warriors as soon as possible.
>You need to know what Galeria is doing. Does she mean to follow the plan?
>You need to take out this awakened being first. Then you withdraw.

>>3412392
>>3412397
Then ask ourselves this question:
What would the Organization gain from selectively forcing Claymore Warriors to awaken? So far the warriors that they selectively force the awakening process on are Warriors that are No. 1 in the ranking system. But now Noel's the running experiment and she's #9. So they knew about Noel's heritage. And if they want to force her to awaken, what is the result that they want to achieve? A warrior who can stay sane while awakened? a warrior who has both Human and Yoma Heritage running through their veins?

>>3412408
Sabela is pretty sane already. They must want something else.

>>3412392
>>3412408

I can imagine a few reasons.

The Organization could be less like the Witchers and more like Umbrella Corp, looking to profit from a new war engine only they can reliably control.

They could also be looking to produce a Super-being that could take on some external threat nobody but them are truly aware of.

>>3412408
Saria was probably also purposely awakened since her letter was also kept by the Organization

You know, this also brings Tomas's role in the organization into perspective. I'm not sure the exact story, but he was rather fond of Noel and Sabela and seemed rather crushed by Sabela's awakening to the point where the mannerisms ("Fancy that") seem to be a homage to Sabela.

>>3412372
You retreat, feeling every blow traded between Constanzia and your mother even at a distance. But as you do, Galeria is charging full tilt the other way, towards the overwhelming sounds and concussive forces of battle. Her yōki is harsh and wild, like a raging fire that surges all around her in a roiling mass of untamed power.

As she passes, you can see that her eyes have the same quality to them that your mother's do, only without even the faintest spark of recognition. She warned you that you might have to abandon her if something went wrong... and you know why now.

The answer is her mind.

Her technique must induce a berserker-like fury, most likely by awakening her nervous system. Her instincts, her reflexes, her body's actions: in every way it's like she's already awakened. The only way you can think of that the Organization could have made a usable warrior out of someone like that is through the use of post-hypnotic suggestion, through even stricter and more heavy-handed indoctrination than you yourself experienced.

She must be following her target's yōki, and when that yōki disappears that must trigger her to suppress her yōki and allow her own mind to reassert itself. But between activating her technique and the death of her target, she has no control over herself. Yet another experiment, used by the Organization not to produce a 'sane' awakened being but a 'controllable' one.

Calling her off is beyond your ability, and she must know that. Even if you could synchronize your yōki with hers at the level Olivia could, you're not sure you could suppress a full awakening of someone in a berserker state.

You sprint with Helen towards where the other warriors are fighting for their lives, and as you get closer the sight horrifies you.

Three awakened beings have engaged with your friends and allies. Hera is already dead, her lower body crushed underfoot by the initial landing of one of the monsters that attacked from the sky only to be finished off with a claw-like nail impaled through her head. Liliana too, cut in two just below her ribs with her severed hands still grasping the hilt of her sword.

Justina has some sort of spine through her gut and is on her knees, while Valentina is helping her pull it out while keeping their attacker at bay with her extendable claws.

Greta has a deep wound across the top of her shaved skull, and blood is dripping into one of her eyes.

But one situation is far worse: Emma stands over Sabrina, who has lost an arm and taken a horrific blow to her gut. An awakened being is in the middle of attacking her with its left claw outstretched.

Emma knows she's dead. Her eyes aren't even open, but she's willing to die to keep Sabrina alive even just a few more seconds.

Serana sees it too, but she's engaged with a beast of her own. If she disengages Lucia is as good as dead, and you're still too far away.

>>3412871
The suffering has begun.

>>3412839
In what feels like no time at all, your fist collides with the awakened being's wrist just in time to knock it aside. The attacker's own momentum helps you impale it on your sword, right up to the hilt, and as it bowls you over you manage to use your feet to propel it in a high arc over Emma and the fallen form of Sabrina behind you.

With a quick, deftly-coordinated movement, you spring back to your feet.

Something feels... different.

Serana stares at you for a moment, as does her opponent, before they return to their fight. In a moment Valentina manages to score a direct hit on her assailant's left eye, giving Justina time to start regenerating her guts. That situation seems like it may be back under control.

But what about your team?

You turn on your heel to face the two behind you. “That was very brave, Emma, but reckless. You'll not be any help to Sabrina if you're dead.”

She stares at you in shock, as if a silent scream were escaping her lips.

Helen runs past you. “We'll talk about this later.”

“Talk about what!?” you protest.

Meanwhile the yōma you sent flying manages to stagger to her feet. Then she lays eyes on you, and starts staring at you too just like the others.

“See something over here you like?” you demand angrily.

“What the hell is wrong with you, bitch?” she hisses. “You definitely passed your limit just then... grew horns and everything. So how can you just be standing there calmly like nothing even happened!?”

Wait... horns?

> Implying Noel is planning to take back the throne

Oh man I was hoping to at the very least get to number two ranking before awakening. We'll never get abysmal status now.

>>3414190
rolled low on the wake up too apparently. we might be trash tier.

>>3414208
Apparently it was the bare minimum for Noel to be able to do something. If we rolled too high, then Helen would've been attacking us.

>>3414214
>Helen would've been attacking us.
What? What makes you say that?

>>3414259
We only grew horns, If we went full woke like Sabela...(grey skin, eyes, monster bits) then we'd be like an awakened one. not some Clay with a crown of horns.

>>3414269
No I mean, why would we be attacked for rolling high? Like rolling high isn't a bad thing.......

So if regular yoma are like the Wendigo from Until Dawn, give or take a few gimmicks, what's the story with these "awakened"?

They seem a lot more varied. Is there any common thread between them?

They seem less scary so far. More powerful, but less unpredictable. More likely to talk sense and stuff.

>>3414295
Common thread is they are all former claymores. Other than that not really much puts them together. Most of them are crazy. The rest are drunk on power. And none of them should be trusted. They're pretty different on a case by case basis because they all manifest a little different based on their previous abilities and traits.

Really they're just smarter and more driven by ambition. Seems yoma are just interested in living and don't have any goals outside of that. ABs are people. Crazy people.

>>3414295
Awakened are Former Claymores who forms are normally representative of their derived Claymore powers. They all neeed to eat humans to live and are usually crazy or monstrous.

>>3414190
Helen said "we'll talk later" specifically because Noel's clearly not fully awakened, but something bizarre happened when she drew enough yoki to briefly surpass her usual limits. Because yoki utilization, and arguably "awakening", is a natural thing for her body to do the results of her doing so are somewhat different than if Helen or one of the other half-awakened were to do it.

The Awakened Being she's currently set to fight is confused for the same reason. Noel clearly should be a purple-blooded gut-devouring monster, but obviously isn't.

>>3414208
Rolling higher would have had an additional effect beyond briefly passing Noel's supposed "limits" to save Emma's life. Rolling lower would mean Emma would probably have died and a later partial-awakening would have been harder to control long-term.

>>3414295
At about 10% of their maximum theoretical yoki usage a warrior's eyes change from silver to gold. At about 30% it starts to warp their facial features. At 50% their musculature starts to change. "Crush depth", beyond which a warrior loses control of their yoki and can't suppress it again, is typically around 75-85% depending on the individual.

Once you reach that point there are two possibilities. Noel and the other half-awakened all found ways to suppress their yoki anyway despite having been told it's impossible, where the alternative is awakening fully. When that happens the "monster side" is in control.

Awakened beings eat humans, and their human forms are merely disguises for their true forms. But they often retain much of the personality they had as humans: Yulia is calculating and ruthless, Constanzia only ever acts like she thinks a "human" should act, and Sabela is still Sabela for the most part. But again, depending on the individual that personality may become warped, and not all warriors were as rational as Yulia or as benevolent as Sabela to start with. Many were borderline psychotic even before awakening.

>>3412372
Huh. I don't think awakened spontaneously grow clothes, so that 'skirt' has gotta be furled appendages or wings of some kind.

. . . tendrils for hair

. . . I'm on to you queen.

>>3415062
. . . and I approve.

>>3414956

>>3412889
You feel your head, and your fingertips find something hard projecting from your skull just above your temples. They're long horns, or maybe more like antlers, which reach forward and backward around your skull like a jagged crown.

In a moment of panic you slice open your palm, squeezing tight with your fingertips so that blood flows freely, and sigh in immediate relief when you see that it's red.

“Still red,” you reassure yourself aloud, before glancing at Emma as you heal the self-inflicted injury. “It's okay, Emma. I'm not going to lose control that easily.”

“Quit messing around with that weakling and face me!” the awakened being shouts furiously.

You carefully walk around Emma and Sabrina. “Both of you, try and stay alive okay? I'll handle this situation from here.”

The awakened being fires three rods at you, one from each palm and one from her mouth, which you deflect by carefully angling your sword. Your arms feel stronger than you're used to, and your movements are faster and more precise. You have to wonder... in this bizarre new halfway form you've accidentally found, what can you do now that may not have been possible before?

Warning: mild canon spoilers and meta-knowledge ramblings ahead.
Now what I wonder is if this is really Sabela's true form. Every single Abyssal in canon was capable of partial transformation and generally had superb control of their shape.

In fact, on at least one occasion when two of them fought they both agreed to fight without their true forms to avoid devastating the area too much. Sabela could be at least as considerate.

Possibly. However both Priscilla and Theresa were human sized roughly compared to how massive the others were. It depends on how obscenely overpowered she is.

>>3415346
We’re only allowed so much luck in ling’s Quests it seems.

>>3415352
True, kind of, about Priscilla, but I will remind you she had the ability to create a veritable forest of tendrils and could shape herself to ridiculous degree. Also anime final form Priscilla wasn't in the manga, but the author still helped in designing it.

As for Teresa, she's dead and never awakens. The thing with her image at the end was just an affectation of Claire, and Claire was never in the same yoki league as a number one/Abyssal. She triumphed mostly because of Priscilla's mental state and the effect Teresa's likeness had.

>>3415356
[Spoiler] Regardless they were both the unquestioned strongest Awakened Being (Theresa does count even if she’s only based on what Claire thinks she should be over what she actually was) thier base forms were very human and while they could shape themselves easily, they did not need too for a win.

“Come on then,” you taunt the awakened being. “Let's see what you can do.”

When she attacks you, you try something for the first time. It's not dissimilar to the Earthbreaker technique, but using your yōki to push in two directions as though building up tension. Then you reverse the flow of yōki that's pushing inward, forcing that power to extend around your blade.

The result is that when your sword's edge hits the armored forearms of the attacking awakened being, it bounces off.

“Ha!” the awakened being snorts triumphantly. “Shows you right for acting so cocky when you couldn't even...”

Then she glances down at her right wrist. “Huh?”

Serana charges behind you, her sword held parallel to the ground and off to her right side.

“Why won't they move!?” the awakened being roars, only now realizing that despite not having penetrated her armor your sword strike succeeded in slicing her tendons.

With basically no resistance to speak of, Serana is free to land two swift strikes using her own one-handed version of the Earthbreaker technique which mangles both the awakened being's legs at the knees.

“Wait!” she protests. “Have mercy!”

“This is mercy,” you hiss, falling from above to smash your sword into the top of her skull with all your weight and both your hands behind it. Both with the normal Earthbreaker, weakened though it may be in your hands, and your yōki-projection version at the same time.

The edge might not have gone more than a few inches into the crown of the awakened being's skull, but the fountain of blood that erupts into your victim's mouth tells you that the force of the blow went at least that far.

You quickly bump elbows with Serana, before she puts the point of he sword into the ground.

WHAT NEXT?

She grasps the hilt of her sword again immediately, ready to move on to whatever target you designate.

“We need to get over to the others,” you declare. “Emma, get Sabrina up. Serana, help me cover for her.”

Serana nods, and you rush for your companions. You manage to find a low spot by the side of the road that you knock Sabrina and Emma into just in time to evade a volley of spikes, before joining Helen while Serana heads over to back up Valentina, Justina, and Greta.

“We need to get our wounded out of here,” you tell Helen, while Lucia gives you as much leeway as she can without opening herself up to attack. “Somehow.”

“Those fliers would hunt them down,” Helen observes, sparing a single upward glance.

“Then we need to clear these bastards out,” you realize.

The two of you are forced to separate to evade a rapid attack from an awakened one, whose armor plated body moves far quicker than you'd have anticipated. You also have to force one of the flying yōma, which you think are awakened ones based on their yōki power, away when it tries to attack Lucia who dodged the same direction you did.

“Or we have to kill the flying bastards,” you add.

Helen nods. “Indeed.”

“Any ideas?” Lucia asks, barely managing to knock a spike out of the air.

You swiftly snatch the spike Lucia deflected out of the air with a malicious grin. “Cover me, I have an idea.”

At a full sprint you practically fly across the battlefield, Helen and Serana and the other warriors keeping the awakened beings from interfering with your swift maneuver. You reach Liliana's body, or rather what remains of it, in seconds.

Grasping the hilt of her fallen sword, you whisper a quick apology and heft her weapon like a javelin.

“Hey bird-brain!” you roar. “Catch!”

Then you hurl the sword with all your yōki-enhanced might, turning it into a silver streak that crosses the sky between you and its target. You're careful to make the full rotation...

“Hah!” the flying beast shrieks in delight as it deflects the blade, with the loss of only one of several of its sharp limbs. “What a wa-”

You suppose it was going to call your attack a waste, but it was obviously taken by surprise when the spike you threw back at it in the shadow of the wide blade catches it under the ribs.

“Whaaaa!” it screams in rage and pain.

“These monsters were so kind as to gift us with ammunition!” you call out. “What say we return it to them with interest?”

“You bitch!” the bug-like monster screams, frothing with hatred as it swoops in. “You daughter of a fucking whore!”

“You shouldn't talk about Sabela like that,” you mutter in a low voice as the flying yōma impales what looks like an arm-length stinger into the ground where you stood a moment ago, turning in the air to land that strange new combination of White Fist and Earthbreaker against the beast's eyes. “It'll shorten your life for sure.”

As it shrieks in pain, withdrawing its stinger in a cloud of dirt, spikes thrown by Lucia and Greta hit it from either side and stick there like arrows shot into a bale of hay.

Before the flying yōma can escape back into the air, you charge it down and slash at the base of its right wing. Again it slides off the armored joint, but savages the tissues behind that thickened layer. The yōma instantly loses balance, rolling over in the air before crashing down onto its back.

“What the...” it begins, before Justina falls upon it with a series of powerful blows that hack at its limbs.

The yōma struggles frantically to get back into the air, kicking itself up with its remaining limbs and flailing wildly with its remaining wings.

Even as its wing stitches itself back together, Justina takes its head with a powerful leap. Its body, however, begins to rapidly bloat and distend.

“Fuck all of you!” the yōma screams with its dying breath.

“Watch out!” you roar, putting yourself between the body and Lucia who was already to your back.

There's a meaty explosion, raining purple gore down on the whole battlefield. But the greatest danger are the spikes which radiate out from the blast zone in all directions. You manage to deflect four, and take one to your shoulder, but it's just a flesh wound... had you not positioned yourself the way you did Lucia would have been torn apart.

Helen manages to duck behind an awakened being who takes the brunt of the blast in her place, and Valentina extends her claws like a cage that blocks the spikes coming her way. For her part Justina takes three spikes to her torso that don't actually seem to penetrate her rib cage, and seem to constitute more of an annoyance to her.

“... Greta?” you hear Lucia's voice behind you.

To your left the clean-shaved warrior drops her sword and slumps to the ground as her right leg collapses, a long spike lodged through it just under her kneecap. As her head turns, you see a second spike protruding from the left side of her skull.

“That bitch,” you hear a voice from above you. “Could have hit me!”

“Shit!” you shout, hastily moving even closer to Lucia to try to intercept the swooping yōma.
>1/2

Riparoni

>>3418617
Then there's a gust of wind, and the bird-like yōma's wings split open. With a screech the yōma crashes to the ground and struggles to its feet, only to find Helen staring it down with a look of pure, burning fury. In a single stroke she takes its head, the blade seemingly landing from the side opposite where it should have been.

So that's the Echo Sword in action...

… but more importantly, was that what you thought it was?

“I knew it was a good idea to follow Sabela,” a familiar voice calls out from down the road as a silver-haired blur comes to an abrupt stop nearby. “If only I had gotten here just a few seconds sooner, maybe I could have been of more help.”

“Laura?” you ask, stunned at her sudden appearance. “You followed Sabela all this way?”

She nods sternly. “I did. I had no idea the situation I'd walk into would be such a mess.”

Then she glances up, feeling a massive shock as the two Abyssal Ones clash. “That's Constanzia, right?”

“Hey, who the fuck's this new chick?” one of the remaining awakened beings demands loudly. “No fair, bringing in reinforcements?”

“Can't say I'm liking the new look,” she shakes her head. “But I suppose it suits you in a way. Perhaps it could grow on me.”

As a noble, Noel probably played polo in her youth. Surely, those games of old must inspire her in times like this.

> The sand of the desert is sodden red,—
Red with the wreck of a square that broke;—
The Gatling's jammed and the Colonel dead,
And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
The river of death has brimmed his banks,
And England's far, and Honour a name,
But the voice of a schoolboy rallies the ranks:
"Play up! play up! and play the game!"

“Let's make a stand here,” you tell Laura. “Let our wounded withdraw.”

She nods in agreement. “I too wish to see as many warriors survive this day as possible, so of course I'll help you.”

“Serana! Helen!” you bark. “Get everyone else out of here, and cover them as best you can! Laura and I will hold out here!”

Helen, for her part, doesn't hesitate. “You heard the lady, move while we've got a chance!”

Justina withdraws under the protection of Valentina's spikes, and Serana quickly shifts her position to provide cover for Lucia. Helen gives you a curt nod... and then one of the remaining awakened beings launches a barrage. Not aimed at any of you, but to one side.

Emma stands stock-still, her eyes wide as she drops both her sword and Sabrina's limp form.

Your eyes briefly meet hers, before the awakened being tears her in half.

“You bastard!” you scream, weaving past the awakened being in front of you to reach the one who just attacked Emma. “Helen, get them out of there!”

Serana moves to keep the awakened being you just passed from killing Lucia, who has been making her own attempt to break and withdraw, but she doesn't count on one of the last two fliers extending a tendril after her. The extended limb, more a writhing mass of muscles and twisted bones than an arm or a leg, wraps several times around Lucia's leg.

“No you don't!

The awakened being manages to get Lucia off the ground before it sees you coming, having used the head of the monster that killed Emma as a springboard. Before your rapidly-spinning sword cleaves that limb off, it tightens its grip and reduces Lucia's leg to a pulp with a scream.

You don't quite get all the way to the flying awakened being, but as a second tries to catch you off-guard in the air a sword spins towards you. The blue hilt settles perfectly into your hand... and you can see that Laura is now holding your own sword and joining Serana in fighting off the awakened beings below.

“Where did that come from!?” your would-be attacker demands as you impale a soft spot on its torso with your borrowed blade. Your reply is to plant your feet on either side of the sword with a pair of yōki-projected kicks that send you crashing back to the ground.

When you stagger to your feet you can see that the final flying awakened being is chasing after Justina and Valentina, the latter making its life a living hell by pelting it unrelentingly with spikes and the former watching her back.

Lucia has her arms wrapped around Serana's neck, and the taller warrior carries her easily on her back, so they seem like they'll be able to escape. But Helen is carrying whats left of Sabrina over her left shoulder.

Greta, Liliana, Hera, and now Emma lie where they fell.

Laura watches them sadly. “Did you know any of them well?”

You shake your head. “No. To my discredit.”

“They died to protect their fellow warriors,” Laura sighs. “We'll honor their sacrifice by securing their objective.”

After taking a moment to get your yōki back under control, you nod in agreement. “Right... you're right.”

Fuck. They're all dead.
Damn you dice!

>Laura's skills are ranged attacks, and you're a defensive-type. Get in close.
A tank and a ranged DPS is a classic.

Oh dear. Emma's dead. I get that much, but what kind of attack was it? From how it's described I think it was a projectile?

Anyway, if it's not too much trouble, it would probably help us if we could get a list of the awakened we are fighting and roughly what they look like and what we've seen them do. Maybe some nicknames based on the above to differentiate between them.

>>3419955
I know it's weird and awkward, but that's my schedule.

Because there's no way this could go wrong.

>yoki under control
Still horned or...?

And how likely is it that Galeria is keyed to Laura's yoki as well as Constanzia's?

>>3419969
There's one flier getting hammered by Valentina and is probably going to be killed by a combination of her, Helen, and/or Serana. That situation is fairly well under control.

There are two awakened beings on the ground that are both wounded. One extends its limbs and one launches projectiles. Both are risky to engage at close range, but have proven to be perfect opponents for Noel both being heavily armored rather than pure speed-based types. There's also one flier that can extend its limbs, and is also wounded.

>>3420012
Still horned. As Galeria's mission was not specifically to do with Laura she would logically not give a fuck about that. But since the other awakened beings have been synchronized through Rafaela's skills you would either need to change that or kill EVERYTHING for Galeria's conditioning to trigger her to stand down. Including Constanzia and Rafaela.

This is just tragic. The chances of rolling this badly is like rolling 2d100 and having them both be nat ones.
