Been really busy as of late. I fear the quality and quantity are both decreasing. Chapter 29: Run, Casull, Run! A brilliant red light blinded Casull as the explosion of the Crystal Chamber rumbled through the tunnel. Casull ran as fast as he could to escape. The rush of debris caught up with him just as the exit came into view, carried him out of the cave, and dumped him in a clump of desert shrubs next to a canyon wall. Shaking his head and gathering his wits, he noticed a plume of dirt and smoke off in the distance, further down the canyon, which probably marked the entrance to the cave complex. Looking around at the debris surrounding him for anything of value, he found the Hinata Dark Blade conspicuously absent, probably having been destroyed along with Nightmare. With nothing left to do, we slowly, painfully, made his way back to the entrance. He did not except a hero’s welcome, but he certainly did not anticipate the widespread accusations of dereliction of duty that many of his teammates launched at him for failing to warn them, though, in his defense, he did point out that Siegfried, among others, had also noticed the trap and managed to conduct a thoroughly competent evacuation, so there was no real damage done. Besides, he had managed to destroy Nightmare, which many agreed was an acceptable excuse. Motoko, for one, did not approve of his actions, and did not hesitate in criticizing Casull’s “most foolish, irresponsible, and dishonorable” abandonment of his teammates. Casull promptly told her to shove it and immediately left to take point as the group made its way back to friendly territory. |
