*whispers* Hey, Espy, it's more likely to be gruff, humorless military type doing door duty at the armory, then a helpful old man. :p
And... given the way this has played out, I suppose we're still heading to the armory. Serra, it would probably make sense if Feenai sensed what was going on and let Jeanne and Shealtiel know.
Dolly, Salone, maybe the two of you can run into these pursuers? Rue ought to be able to counter their powers and let Lev fill 'em with holes.
The soldiers are probably mobilizing to deal with this attack, so... the armory might actually get really crowded in short order.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
