[Abandoned Village] Almost everyone together

Ruby, Fade and Flicker will get to see Archera and that other masked person shoot up by a impromptu geyser sending them high into the air before it freezes over. It doesn't look particularly stable but it did protect them from the swarm of giant rats which now are gawking in surprise at the spectacle that just took place.
But before either of them has a chance to join this fight the rats around them seem to go into a frenzy as soon as they get closer to the giant rats and starts to swarm Flicker and Ruby. Fade has still not been detected by the rats so he's still free.

The other two will have a huge amount of utterly fearless rats to deal with however as they're coming in from all sides. Flicker will have an easier time avoiding getting swarmed thanks to her teleportation but this time the rats are not backing down. They're essentially berserking, throwing themselves at the two with all the might their little bodies can muster. Sinking their fangs into whatever clothing, armor and exposed flesh just trying to cause as much damage as possible.


Back at the newly created ice-platform Irena have after making sure that Archera was alright holstered her guns and in her right hand she's instead holding a grenade. But before using it she turns towards the alarm of Flicker and some dragon-mutant arriving at the scene. It doesn't give her enough reason to dissuade her from what she's set her mind to however.

Turning to Archera, who despite the visor can tell that Irena is smiling, she remarks in a low tone. "Don't worry, babe. I know what I'm doing." Then she tosses the grenade in the middle of the giant rats.

BAAROOMKKKH

Just the sound of the grenade is enough to leave the rats momentarily stunned while the rest of the scene is now obfuscated by centuries of dust which the grenade thrown into the air.

[Abandoned Village] Jaahlyn and Holly

"If it's larger, then the gun is probably going to be more useful. But whatever the case, you can at least mend the wounded if you want to stay out of it. Any assistance is going to be better than talking with me right now." Dena argues and Holly can hear that she takes a small breath as she is about to add something when the signal abruptly cuts out.

"They're fighting them now." Jaahlyn suddenly speaks up, somehow standing almost right behind Holly as if she materialized from thin air. "Who were you speaking to?" Doesn't sound like she finds the fight incredibly urgent.

The Ms. J Investigation

Aha, further proof of demonic corruption. Jezebel had been completely human before, but then she had been corrupted. Not to mention that all her sisters were half-sisters which also seemed pretty suspicious to her too. She would need to inquire further into that. "So what happened to her and the others? I had assumed that she was born like that, with the little horns and all." Anika turns to Charles and raises one of her long eyebrows. "She looks almost exactly like a succubus, y'know?" Perhaps Charles was aware of what that confusion had lead to.

Moth Park

"Am only weird since you people are weirder." Hekta insists, sticking out her tongue in protest. "And ei ain't following you. All doesn't revolve around ye' Eli. Ei was just going around the park finding things." She crosses her arms over her chest and shrugs.
