Damn it.  Just... Just damn it.

Suzu, you ready to move?

Klarth, stay put.  You're not a target, don't make yourself one.

Stella, Senel, you two hear the message?

At least the kid's not here to see all this...

You getting ready to go? [She can tell something's wrong, but she didn't know Shirley, so she doesn't know about their relationship.]

Yes, I am. [Sona's hold on her isn't as strong now, but it's still there. It's actually helping her - It's getting her to focus on what she has to do.]

And... Senel? Sophie?

We'll all be moving to the tunnels shortly.

[Voice]

Gotcha. Me and Suzu'll be there soon.

And, Stella... Chin up, okay? I know it's a bad situation, but we're gonna do all we can to make sure everyone who's left gets through it.

...Please, be careful. The casualties...

[Voice]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

I'm not gonna be one of 'em. And neither are you, or Senel, or Sophie.

[Voice] (dammit LJ D|)

Yes... You're right. We'll stand together against this.

I apologize for my moment of uncertainty.

Don't worry about that. It's a nasty business we're dealing with right now.
