Ciri "Limbless? But I've still got two sets of wings." she complains.

Reima shakes his head, "Doesn't matter, I deem you Limbless the Dragon!"

...

Ciri "Still a better name than Squeaks." she mutters.

Reima "Limbless." he states.

Ciri "Squeaks." she says, louder than last time.

...

They both chuckle at each other, the argument being incredibly stupid in the first place.

...

...

Ciri "Rei?"

Reima "Yeah?" he asks, her never usually using his nickname.

Ciri "I've been thinking about us for a while and... I want to be with you..."

Reima slowly nods, "The feelings mutual, though, I can feel the "But" coming." he says bluntly.

She ignores him and continues, "But... We can't be together unless we defeat the Wild Hunt."

Reima sighs, "Yeah, that's what you said last time..."

Ciri "Let-Let me finish" she exclaims, getting silence from him momentarily... "Let's go trash their world, and kill any who remain after the battle."

...

Reima grins widely, "Really? I thought you'd never ask..." he says, wondering if the Wild Hunt had any more secret weapons that could possibly stop him.

Ciri nods, "I don't think they could stop us, and now that I've got my animagus form... I think it's time."

Reima "Well, what're you waiting for? Let's go do it."

...

Ciri "Shouldn't you tell everyone you'r-"

Reima interrupts her, "No... I doubt it'll take more than a day... Plus, the old man's been listening in so he can tell them for us." he says pointing at the Everlasting Dragon peeping on their private discussion.

Ciri walks up and grabs his hand, "As long as you're ready to face them..."

Reima nods, "Just try to keep a good distance from me when I begin..." he says, the two of them disappearing in a flash of light, leaving the Everlasting Dragon still sitting there.

"Perhaps I could have assisted..." it mutters.

The duo appear on an old decrepit tower overlooking a vast city currently enveloped in a blizzard.

Ciri "This is Tir ná Lia, the capital of the Aen Elle... The Wild Hunt." she says, looking down at it, seeming to reminisce on her time spent here.

Reima nods, the temperature around him beginning to rise as dark red flames flicker to life around him, "Alright... I'm going to get to work then, just use the amulet if you get into trouble." he says, leaping from the tower and towards the city like a meteorite.

Ciri examines the tower, it having previously held her... Though, it was in disrepair at having no maintenance for years.

A couple minutes later footsteps signal someones arrival, she quickly draws Seath and points it at whoever is approaching.

Ciri "Ge'els?" she asks, not lowering her blade for a moment.

Ciri "What? Didn't think me brave enough?"

Ge'els snorts, "Yes, very brave of you to have your companion do all the work..."

Ciri scowls at him, "As brave as you and the others imprisoning me? It's good then that I show you the same courtesy."

Ge'els shakes his head, "It's cold is it not Zireael?"

Ciri raises a brow at him, "It is, what's your point?"

Ge'els "My point? My point is thus, we needed you to save our world, and our people... I did not agree with their methods, believing you could be reasoned with... But alas, I was not and still am not able to go against my King's wishes."

Ciri "You only say this now, as you are at my mercy and Tir ná Lia burns..."

Ge'els nods, "I wish to make my stance clear on the matter, before my people are snuffed out of existence... Even if you hadn't chosen this course of action, we'd have perished regardless... The White Frost continues to encroach upon our world, rivers freeze in summer, crops die, and all wildlife goes extinct... Truly, we are at the end times."

Ciri "You expect me to feel pity for you?" she asks.

Ge'els shakes his head, "Your pity doesn't matter... With Eredin gone, fleeing our rightful homeland in some misguided attempt at revenge while we all suffer, my race's end is near."

Ciri "Eredin is gone?"

Ge'els nods, "With Imlerith and Caranthir, and what's left of our armies... The only people your friend is battling are innocent men, women and children, attempting to save their homes, lives and city." he says, with a forlorn expression.

Ciri frowns, not having expected Eredin to flee, if the army had still been here she wouldn't feel all that bad about it... But sending Reima to incinerate innocent people didn't sit well on her conscience, she didn't think he'd appreciate the news if he was allowed to continue either... She held the amulet he'd given her and pushed magic within it, Reima appearing nearby in a flash of Turqouise light in the next moment.

The marble beneath his feet melted where he stood as he quickly brought his aura back within himself, his eyes darting around to find whoever had caused her to have to use the amulet, eventually spotting Ge'els standing nearby an uncomfortable-looking Ciri.

Reima "Elf, you've come to offer you life to me?" he asks, approaching with Arcell wreathed in Chaos flames sitting in his hand.

Ciri "No Rei... He had news of Eredin... He's fled this world with the Aen Elle armies... The only people within the city are regular people..." she mutters, the words seeming distasteful on her tongue.

Reima frowns and looks at Ge'els, "Where is Eredin then?" he asks, the threat heavy in his tone.

Ge'els look over his shoulder at Reima, "I don't know..."

Reima grits his teeth and telekinetically picks the man up by his throat, "You will tell me where the rebe-Eredin is." he says, almost accidentally blurting out something from a movie.
