[Vivi/Altair/Merri/Wil/Open]
Without his lyre, Life Song wasn't as strong as it could have been, but it was definitely weakening the skeletons that were left. He finished the song, took a deep breath, and began it again. He was gratified when he saw one skeleton knight, obviously already low in health, drop.
As he sang, he glanced over to where he knew the crystal to be. It seemed far away, particularly since Altair was unused to pain, and every inch of his body burned with superficial sword and spear wounds. Still, it was likely their best chance to escape, unless Wil had come with a better idea, so Altair looked over at Vivi and nodded, hoping to make his assent clear even while his voice was busy with other things. Truly, as long as Vivi was okay, he would consider this disaster of a Friday night a success.
