and the only solution was to stand and fight
It had been a long while since Deimos has ever had to hide. Not since exile, most likely, and the actions that had come before it. But the instinct still drew him to those arcane and ancient motionless notions; head tilting only slightly to watch, to listen, as senses pierced through the icy wakes and the distant voices. They could talk to one another for now, until both Flood and White Knight came closer.
Only a moderate relief sunk into him at the notions of Flora being okay; though fine probably had a designation that not many of them could ever register. I am sorry you both had to experience that again went without saying; nor was it the time or the place to reflect upon how many iterations they had gone through in the wake of their children. Nor did it make the Sword feel any better about his own; thinking of Kiada, and Erebos, by extensions of future fallouts. That incessant need to shelter and protect –
The unfortunate sentiment of Ronin losing the blade wound deeply too, and he let the comment go, unleashing a long breath, pressing himself a little closer to crag and wall, waiting for the right moment. His jaw clenched as the voices echoed, footsteps approached. Same. Just let me know when you are ready.
