[KQ] Bigger A(spire)ations

Roana I am more than just a piece in their game Nothing felt so glorious as the sight of Krosis slicing through the chest of the beast. Like a hot knife through butter, no resistance, no drag – a clean, should-have-been lethal cut. Well. Should have been. But this was no ordinary foe, now was it? As it fell Roana was quick to stumble back, at least far enough that she shouldn’t be the easiest target should the beast escape. Its laughter or cry or whatever it was seemed muddled as her vision clouded and refocused, the venom coursing through her veins momentarily making the world spin. She fell to one knee, grounding herself as she sheathed Krosis once more, so it couldn’t do her any harm as she tried to get herself back to sorts. She fumbled for the antivenom in her pocket, prying off the lid with venom-induced clumsiness before managing to knock back the bitter remedy. Whether it helped or not she would rise back to her feet, if a bit unsteadily, hand on the hilt of her sword, prepared for another bout. Roana falls back and takes the remedy before righting herself again.
