Deimos
In hindsight, perhaps there should’ve been more of a team element rather than simply two hovering around one another – it wasn’t doing any good to splinter and split themselves apart. He'd seen, in many circumstances, how those semblances often turned out. Deimos furrowed his brow at the actions, but waited it out, figuring Damien and Theea could kill off one last flailing ROU on their own.
Of which Theea finally did, sticking her blade through the little cretin’s throat. It faded into oblivion with all its usual flare and amidst the demise, giving her enough time to either settle herself or take a moment to breathe. The Sword tilted his head, already beginning to alter his incantations across the open portions of the nest, listening to the suggestions but knowing only some notions would work, just the same. “If any of you need healing, see Hawthorn or Zuriel,” at which he nodded towards the unicorn along the sidelines, ignoring her residual eye roll.
But his motions were already settled into more conviction and nuances. There’d be no need to set a trap – the ROUs were fully aware of their existence by now, given the amount of noise erupting from the center of the room – and Deimos had other ideas. “Good,” he nodded towards Hawthorn as the man was already maneuvering pieces. “We can block some of these routes off.” Then the rats, speculatively, would have no choice but to come through the open portions, where the hunters would be ready. It’d take far too much time for them to chew through any other soft stone. He snagged at more rock and rubble, placing it in front of two of the openings, leaving only two more available.

The initial onslaught of ROUS has been slain!
You have some options for this round:
- Heal up via either Zuriel/Hawthorn
- Help block some of the routes off (Tunnel Three and Tunnel Four)
- Or prepare in front of Tunnel One or Tunnel Two
