the battle was a fierce one. the maiden was at arms just as quickly as she noticed that another would possibly need help. however, it seemed as though he could handle himself.
she needs to rest a bit, but not after holding her breath after looking towards this new companion. [ he sure is intimidating ] “ heya ! ” she says in her natural, soft tone. “ not really how i wanted to make my introduction, but .. ” @gainsflora / CONT.
there were CERTAIN REQUIRMENTS when it came to preparing for the ducal tournament that clive tried his damned hardest to follow. one, do not receive any assistance or aid in the hopes of finding out just how durable he was. trying to explain this to jill had been quite the task, but she's relented... FOR NOW. as his blade is deflected from the recoil of a coeurl, he braces himself for a blow that does not land. instead, there's an UNKNOWN MAIDEN that promptly has the boy's back.
in the heat of the battle, it's not long before the beast is slain and clive comes to a heaving halt, brows furrowed and a scowl already forming on his face. HE FAILED. had it not been for the woman, he'd have gashes in the flesh of his chest and who knows what else. clive finally turns once her melodic tone reaches his ears, sheathing his blade upon his back so he can step closer to examine her for any injuries. "are you all right? what were you thinking, you could have BEEN KILLED.." his concern mixes into scolding, brows seemingly more upset than prior.
