Ashan 30, 719 Who Knows?
After a slap and a splash to the face, Hector's eyes fluttered open, the man hanging limply in Enrick's grasp. His eyes moved from Enrick to Rabu and back. A slight smirk crossed his face, "I do hope we're friends. I'm a bit to ragged to fight so seriously." The man looked around the trial, seeing the elemental chaos, much of which was rushing toward him and his two new companions.
With a weak raise of the hand, the spikes of ice and bolts of lightning stopped. It all stopped. "Sorry about that. Fell asleep after all that nonsense. Crazy dreams that one can't discuss sober." With a tired nod, the elements all began to calm, flowing back into a more natural state. Enrick slipped out of the Exemplar state, and would find himself nearly instantly drained of nearly all of his energy. But within his soul, he'd feel that new, tired Defiance spark, the one that yearned for water first and foremost.
As the threat dissipated, Bubbles conjured back into existence, settling upon Rabu's head like a tiara. Hector looked out across the way at the doorway, "Y'all ain't so bad. If you ever need help, or you visit Blackbrine, call to the winds. They'll lead you to me."
With that, Hector started toward the exit, the elements floating beneath his feet, and beneath Enrick's and Rabu's, to allow safe passage out. The elements continued to whisper to Rabu, but now that Enrick had let them in, the whispers were gone for him. Once Hector exited, Rabu and Enrick would be exited too. But they could choose the where and the when.
