Edgar/Vivi/OPEN - Mini only.
Genevieve glanced in the direction he indicated. "Yes," she affirmed. "It leads to the next street, which is quite near a crystal." If they could get to that, then it would be easy to disappear from the area. It seemed that the attack was congregating near the Tower; she only hoped it had not spread further. "Follow me."
Without looking to see if he was following - she could only assume he was - she tried a lightning spell, which did not do much, but it momentarily dazed the Slime, allowing her to slip by and towards the alleyway, which was thankfully clear. Her heels clattered on the stone and she thought, quite crossly, she should have worn her boots. It made it easier for quick movement.
The alley spit her out onto the street. A crowd of people were running in terror and she glimpsed something quite large and terrifying at the Tower. She looked behind her to find her companion. "This way," she told him, deftly slipping through the panicked citizenry.
The crystal was just ahead. "Have you anywhere you are expected? I can offer you a place to stay until this dies down." And it would, she knew. Past experience told her so.
