Seiichirou’s still flabbergasted. In front of him really stood the Commander of the First Order Knights of Kingdom Romani - Aresh Indrak. Short raven locks, purple eyes and the ever intense expression as he drilled glare into Seiichirou who’d never thought he’d see the man so soon.

“ That’s.... Is that really the first thing you--- “

The hand that was gently stroking his hair turned into storm ruffling the already messy hair. 

“ Ow ow. Aresh that’s enough--- “

When he stops Seiichirou looks up but Aresh has his eyes pointed elsewhere. His hand travels fast onto his sword’s hilt. His other arm raises gesturing Seiichirou to stay back. Feeling slight dizziness he realizes he’s emitting faint magical energy if only faintly. He’s controlling it well.

“ Don’t stand too close”, Aresh warns before he steps ahead himself to the direction of his eyes. 

He’d made it to thin alleyway with no idea if it led anywhere. It was only by luck that he’d managed to catch them off his tail, if only for a while. Still, he could hear them now somewhere there behind him. His feet were starting to hurt - the boots he could have had worse heels but they were hard to run on regardless. Taking them off would only be option if he’d enough time and there simply wasn’t any. 

His breath is running ragged. For a while now he thought the route would go on forever so when he sees someone at the end of it it doesn’t sank in. As it does the feet that had slowed down suddenly pick up pace. 

Immediately he grabs the man’s shoulder.

So it’ was the time again. From what Seiichirou had gathered the incidents came every other month - or so he’d heard. It’d be easy to check it off as strange weather phenomenon but Seiichirou knew better than that. 

With the lack of any sort of abilities and his vulnerability towards magic Seiichirou knew better than wander about aimlessly so he’d taken route to where seemed to be no mist. The spread however happened faster than expected, swallowing Seiichirou deep into its’ innards before he got far enough.

He hadn’t the time to really fully take his surroundings, or rather the lack of it, in before they appeared. Seiichirou paled on sight, nearly falling. He didn’t have any ways to defend himself - the best he could do was to guard his vitals... But these weren’t second order knights. These creatures were what seemed disemboweled head with horns with mouth open from all sides. They wouldn’t kick him in the abdomen.
