The knocks were quiet, as if the fingers rapping against the door were weak and the arm behind them weaker. But they were knocks, and they echoed ominously, somehow making their way through the foyer into the Guildhall beyond.

A voice followed, once strong, now broken. ”It’s Amun! Open up! I answered that fucking call and the monsters got me.” Although there was desperation and fear there, in what little voice there was, there was also an anger. Again came the pounding, this time from two sets of fists, neither of them sounding entirely whole or strong.

Though it was awkward to have the unicorns inside of the guildhall, it was proving useful on more than a few occasions. "Amun, are you alright?" He asked, kneeling at the man's side until the dark unicorn could arrive to heal him as best she could. Once done, using magic and might, he brought the man to his feet. Thinking the fire or a bed might be the best place for him, Remi remembered how little the ascended actually felt, and opted for plopping him down onto the couch. PP okay'd by Crooks.
