Riyeko/Toku/????/Vivian
Her voice—so loud, when usually it was a shier tone—made him look around, and upon seeing her he called, "Down here!" In the back of his mind, he registered the mecha suit as the project she had been working on for so long, but there was no time to praise her efforts. Once more, dumb luck and the Mist playing interference had allowed him to avoid the brunt of Vivian's spell, but even a fraction of its damage was fearsome to contend with, and he knew her mana pool was even deeper than his; she would be tossing such attacks for a long time yet, unless he could make her see reason—a hope he wanted to cling to for at least a short time yet.
Once Riyeko was in range of his spells, Toku wove a Hasteja around them both, and using the boost of his own spell moved onto a Reflect for the Machinist. In her suit, she would be the only one who would be able to reach Vivian, and she would need all the protection he could grant her (though he knew that a simple reflective barrier would do nothing against exceptionally high-level magicks such as Vivian was deploying).
