Peony/Ceres/Siana/OPEN?
The attack had come quickly and unexpectedly; Peony had been on her way back to the Tower from the orphanage when she had felt the ground shake with giant footsteps. Before she had known it, she had found herself surrounded by flan, and it was only fortunate that they fell to magicks with relative ease; she had only minor injuries from disposing of them, and had returned to the Tower at the quickest run she could manage.
Out of breath, she had beheld wreckage -- a massive beast tearing through the city center, flan everywhere, and panicked civilians streaming out of buildings.
She only stopped long enough to send a quick message before drawing her rod.
The ebast was some ways away yet, but she did not want to leave the Tower doors unguarded, not with scholars still inside and monsters at the steps. She chanted a Fira, a wall of flames rising briefly before her. Until reinforcements arrived, she would defend the doors herself, if necessary.
