her eyes are narrowed, lips trembling with barely contained fury. she should do it. just drive this right into his heart. one less of the malvagi to contend with, the one she's deemed most treacherous of all. wrath's all but issued the challenge, and she must show that she is not bluffing.
but their cavalry is indeed approaching, the situation dire enough they risk interrupting what looks to be a tensely charged moment between two strong-willed individuals. emilia breathes as hard as wrath does, very little space between them. only the dagger should fit in what space is left.
she looks to the side and starts at what she sees. their rescuers are undead, not unlike the creatures they fought down in the mines. their disposition, however, is entirely different. one might almost say civilized. a quartz stone is placed in each of their hands, and —
