PHOEBE
Wessex could snap all she wanted. Phoebe had enough faith in her friendship with Frey that even the Ascended Queen couldn’t shake it. ”What do you know about Frey? Just because your goddess is cruel and doesn’t care about people doesn’t mean my god isn’t looking out for me.” Given how little regard The Voice had for anyone but her precious Ascended, the midwife wasn’t surprised that Wessex thought other gods were the same. Frey was different though. The healer’s friend wouldn’t abandon her, not when she needed them the most. However, the fact that they hadn’t shown up yet made her a bit nervous.
Her fear only grew as the monster attacked. Stepping backwards, she let out a little whimper as her companions went to battle. Although the Ascended Queen’s claws cut the creature, it was Pim who saved the day. His rainbow lightning was more than enough to deter the monster. The dragonling cried out triumphantly as he ran forward, making sure the creature was well and truly gone. Obviously it wouldn’t get through him to hurt his Phoebe. Nothing and no one would touch her, not while Guardian Pim was around.
After he ensured the monster was gone, at least for now, he returned to the healer’s side. For her part, her eyes widened as she watched the fire spreading. Kneeling, she scooped the dragonling up. ”Thank you Pim.” She didn't care that some of his lightning had missed the mark. It had gotten rid of the monster, and that was the only thing that was important. Even Phoebe could see that staying where they were wasn’t an option, though. That's why this time, when Wessex commanded the midwife move, she did, following along as the Ascended Queen led them to the door. The healer did her best to give the corridor where the monster had slinked off as wide a berth as possible, while Pim's eyes never left it, ready to blast again even at the hint of a shadow.
