Shad was confused at what was going on. Neil admitted to being a magic user just like that. Hopefully he realized that he was Etrurian, which generally meant he wasn't against magic. Then Kalin came by wielding a staff and healed their wounds. When did she have a staff? How was she able to use it?
Paige left with Neil, like he suggested, which left him to ride with Kalin. But before he could hitch a ride with her, another force attacked the brigands. Literally, all that was left was Glass himself. Everyone else was occupied it seemed. Then he saw it. Glass fired another spell. He looked around and saw one of Neil's tomes still on the ground. It must have fallen when they rode off. He picked it up and recognized it immediately - the Anima spell Fire - and an idea came to his head.
"I'm with you...but the bandits are occupied. How do you feel about risking life and limb to do something objectively stupid?" He asked Kalin, still not realizing he doesn't know her name. "That idiot is sending another rock this way. I'll need your help to try to alter it's course. I'm hoping a barrage of fire balls and wind can derail it from hitting the town. But we need to fly right next to the damnable thing."
He glanced at his hand and saw it shaking from fear. "It's a terrible idea. But in a terrible situation, there are no terrible ideas. What do you say?"
