Yuki manages to drag another body outside and realized what the Colonel was doing. She got a bit more serious as she began to run in and out a little faster as she started to find more bodies in the ship. [color=bb66bb] Respecting the dead... Those were too weak to... No... they were simply unfortunate... NO! they were... Rrrgggh... [/color] Her ears folded out to the sides as she continued to carry the bodies out one by one.

Ness looked at the scene and bowed her head a bit, tipping her hat over her eyes as she closed them and said a small prayer under her breath.

AEanna took hold of Erica's hand with a feeble grip and smiled at her, her eyelids growing heavy.
"I understand... Erica. I just... throughout my long life... you have been my dearest friend... no matter what happened to either of us. And now that we must... part once again, know that... I have never regretted a moment of it. Never. I do not know what you will choose to do... with the eternity that fate offers you. But my only wish is that you... spend it well, and be happy in it. I know that you can. You are strong enough to overcome... anything that gets in your way... because you have already survived so much. Live well... and one day, though the time may be beyond imagination... we will... meet again, in Aetherius."
With that, AEanna's grip relaxed around Erica's hand. Her eyes closed and her head fell to one side, a quiet sigh escaping her lips. This time, she did not look up again.

I see the woman helping me, and start to think I shouldn't have asked. "You don't really have to help, actually. I can take care of it." I say as I start going around and collecting dog tags from the fallen. Fun times.
Entering the cave, Loki and Rita would find Fafnir had yet to return. "How odd. I wonder why Fafnir had yet to return. Most times, when she sets out to hunt, she returns within the hour." he remarked, mostly speaking to himself.

Clasping on to AEanna's now lifeless hand, Erica hung her head, her face obscured by her hair. She bit her lip, her eyes closed. What began as sniffling soon became sobbing. Slumping over, Erica rested her forehead on the side of the bed and began crying in full.

"Sure. But...thanks." I say as I give a quick glance at her, then go back to working. "Do you...have somewhere to be, or can you...stick around?" I asked pretty awkwardly.
Well...thanks for trying.FPSfanatic said:
"Oh I'm sure she's fine. I'm feeling sleepy for now though, goodnight." said Rita as she went to bed

Envy would find a safe place to transform, becoming a black bird, and he would spend the night traveling back to Port Letosh
OoC: @Outis, well at least Tao's suffering has finally come to an end
off to bed

Lagging behind Loki and Rita, Nybeth moved to exit his cave as well. However, when he noticed the time of night, he realized he was unlikely to be able to procure the materials he would need to fulfill Loki's orders. Glancing down at the ground, he shook his head and sighed before ambling back into his cave.

Jessica backed away from the bedside and gave Erica some more space, feeling that anything along the lines of saying anything or trying to comfort Erica would be out of place and uncouth, considering how short a time she had personally known either AEanna or Erica. She decided to simply bow her head and remain respectfully silent.

"Cool...Thanks again." I say, then hurriedly get back to work. It's going to be a long night.
OOC: I should leave it here for the night.

OoC: Envy becoming a black bird?
@Nybeth: It tuk yer jerb! Dx<
"I do not doubt it. And it, as late a hour it is now, it would be inwise to set out." Loki answered Rita. He sat down against the stalagmite he usually sleeps at when in the dragon den and fell asleep not long after.
[hr]
"P-please... Leave us be f-for now..." Erica managed to say to both Ness and Jessica in between sobs, raising her head, but only slightly. She still held on to AEanna's hand, finding herself unable to let go.

When Erica bowed her head and sobbed, Casimir turned away, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed and his forehead resting on them. Teren 'Sai clenched his fists and lowered his fearsome head, jagged teeth bared as even the stone cold, unshakeable Captain of the elite guard fought to contain his grief. Neither man said a word.
OOC: Right, I'm hearing birdsong outside. Time to sleep... was two hours ago. Since this is the climax of the long awaited Winterhold scene I'll leave it here. If I'm not on tomorrow then the charaters can get a mage to take them home whenever they're ready.
One character coming to the end of her life in bed surrounded by those that mattered most to her, and the other literally passed into legend. I'm happy enough with that.

Ness calmly took off her hat and walked out of the silently as Erica requested. She waited for Jessica outside the door, looking extremely sad.

Yuki distanced herself from the bodies and took a few breaths as she sat down and tried to meditate a bit. [color=bb66bb] My mind is eeeeeemmmmmptyyyyyyy..... My mind is.... Why the hell am I talking to myself? ...And how the hell do people do this kind of thing!? [/color]

Jessica nodded at Erica's request, not that she expected her to actually see the gesture, then followed Ness out of the room. As she left, her eyes began to tear up, so she buried them in the left sleeve of her coat as she raised her arm in front of her face. She tried to keep herself from crying, but occasionally sniffled and gave away that she wasn't doing a very good job of it.
