Again her strike was true. Her confidence was building back up to a comfortable point. Her stance was firm and she was proud of herself for being able to overcome her ego. If anything, at least for a few moments, it allowed her to break free of any fear she would have otherwise been focused on. All she needed to do was attempt to treat this like an exercise... one where she couldnt afford to lose, but an exercise none the less.

- Clothing of choice is a norse viking apron dress which offers mobility with her mace but also doesnt break too much conformity of the female stigma of wearing dresses. The apron can easily be changed out when dirty from work or training just as jewelry, furs and belts can be used to 'dress' it up. X

Camilla was thoroughly enjoying taking out the shadowlings even if they were just cannon fodder! She was being helpful and battling! Adrenaline ran through her as the echos of battle sounded all around and despite the chaos around her she had the smallest excited smile on her face but overall she mostly had her battle face on which was a mixture of seriousness and excitement however despite all the excitement and noise at one point she thought she heard someone call her name... pausing Camilla looks around but doesn't see anybody actively calling her in sight... hm... must have just been a weird echo...
After mentally shrugging she goes to lunge at another shadowling when she heard the satisfying sound of the Ballista's go off and the angry screeches of the creatures that followed "Hm? Oh! The Ballistas! Why didn't I think of that before!" she exclaims taking out shadowlings 1 on 1 was nice but she wanted to do some really good damage now! Quickly she sheaths her weapons and runs over to a free Ballista fortunately for her they were already loaded unfortunately they weren't cocked and ready to fire...
Camilla frowns for just a second before nodding determinedly and grabbing the line unfortunately she was but a mouse of a thing prefering speed and agility over brute strength... Yeah she could carry a grow man in if she had to but this was different... But! She wouldn't give up! She just had to pull harder! And pull harder she did! She dug her boots into the stone to get as much purchase as she could while she pulled the line in place as she pulled she couldn't help but laugh a bit to herself as the Ballista reminded her of Shayne's crossbow Finally it was hard work and her muscles ached a bit from the strain but she got the line on the latch and gives a excited fist pump to the air "Yay! Now to light it!" she says excitedly
Quickly she runs over and grabs a lit torch then holds it to the arrow like piece of wood and watches with satisfaction as the wood lights up illuminating the dark once lit Camilla runs back to the line and after bracing herself releases the shot! The recoil was pretty big but she stood firm then watched happily as the projectile gained some good distence and landed soundly right in a thick group of shadowlings! "Yay yay!" she cheers as she hears their angry screeches and wails

Arcadia rushed outside with the others and immediately got lost in the fray for some time. Arrows skittered off walls and friendly helmets - but who could say for certain that the redheaded girl with terrible aim was to blame?
Finally, she managed to creep her way toward one of the ballista she'd helped load. She stared at it blankly for a few moments before ineffectually kicking it.
It fired, and she had to throw herself to the ground to avoid being skewered.

Ah. So that was how it worked. It was basically just, like, a massive crossbow, right? Cady had seen crossbows before, but couldn't remember using one - well, to be fair, she couldn't really remember much of anything anymore. It would not have been surprising if someone had thought a bolt-action weapon a bit too dangerous for the overenthusiastic young woman.
Which meant... She could play with this one. This really, really big one.
And there wasn't even anyone to tell her no.
With the kind of glee one might expect from a kid in a candy store and not someone in the midst of a bloody and traumatic battle, Cady aimed at a particularly large knot of shadowy figures and blasted them all to, well.
Heck.

Despite his notorious and rather outspoken demeanor outside of battle, Morgan is surprisingly calm in the throes of battle, moving soundlessly. The way he holds his sword is more elegant than terrifying, everything a dance around him, curly dark hair and pale skin making him look deceptively fragile.
A shadow creature mimicking a wolf lunges at his arm, and he slices it in a half-step, engaging the next until there is nothing around him but dissolving shadows. A moment of silence, what seems like victory-
- And then the ground shakes underneath him as a giant serpent, head as large as the courtyard itself, bursts from the ground and swallows him, and any standing to close to him whole.
OOC
THIS IS AN OPTIONAL RP POST IN BETWEEN THE MAIN PROMPT DICE ROLLS
You and Morgan have been swallowed by the biggest snake you've ever seen in your lives (and ever will!). Your goal is to try to escape the belly of the serpent! You must roll until you escape (or roll 3 times to auto escape!) This is an exercise to help you reach your words quota, or just to have some fun interaction with NPCs!
gaia_crown[ Roll 1d4. You must keep on rolling UNTIL You escape (by rolling 1). However if you fail at escaping by rolling three times and NOT getting one, you can go ahead and automatically do the number one result prompt on your next post. ]
1:
It is dark, and it smells horrible. You are pretty sure you are standing knee deep in bodies and spilled blood. Desperately, you feel around the walls for an opening. Suddenly, everything begins to shake, and you see the mouth of the serpent open.
((Roll 1d4 to make a lunge for the exit. If you roll even you make it, if you roll odd, you falter at the last second, and Morgan pushes you out. You escape the serpent!))
2:
There is a horrific rattling noise and you realize inside the snake are more tiny snakes. You do your best to defend yourself from them. You hear snaps, and see from the very minimal light flashes of Morgan's sword at work as he impales the last one.
3:
Something drips on your back, and it begins to corrode your exposed skin. Acid. You scramble around looking for an exit.
4:
The snake opens its mouth just for a moment, but you stumble and lose your footing as it lurches forward. More bodies, some of knights, some dead, spill forward, almost smothering you.

And then Morgan-sempai became visible, the sempai who had noticed her, and Cady forgot for a second that she was having a hayday with the biggest and bestest not-a-toy toy crossbow in the world.
His luscious locks swirled around his face as he parried and thrust, and thrust, and she let out a most uncharacteristically girlish sigh. He was finished almost before he had started, and she was simply flushed and out of breath and there were certainly sparkles in her eyes and he was going to turn around any minute and notice her again
And then a horrible shadow reared out of the cobbles and ate everyone in it's path.
Snake. It had to be snake.
Cady sighed, and got settled in, hoping that she'd manage to come out the other end when something wriggled past her booted feet, making a sort of rattly sound.
Snakes. It had to be SNAKES.
It was like a snake pinata in there. She could see Morgan-sempai hacking at them (at least it was a roomy snake), and she attempted to do the same, raining an ineffectual cloud of arrows down upon them.

Shun continued to battle against the creatures of darkness with all his might. Out of the corners of his eyes, he could see the other knight-apprentices doing much of the same. He was just about to strike down another foe when the earth began to tremble from below. Then suddenly...
Black.
He had to take some time to reorient himself once he stopped tumbling. It smelled awful in here. Then, he felt something warm and slimy drip down on him. With a grimace, he quickly began to move.
"Sir Morgan," he called out through gritted teeth, spotting the Red Great Knight (maybe), "Do you think we can cut our way out?"

Cady wondered if she would die, not for the first time that night. But then, the horrible tide of snakeception had ceased, and a window of opportunity presented itself, as the snake opened its jaws wide -
And then she was knocked down again under a new batch of snake food. One of them was missing their head, and she let out an extremely un-knightly squeak.

What. No. Why. This was impossible. Why was he eaten by a snake? Why was he eaten by a snake with Sir Morgan? Why was this happening at all?!
After a brief moment of panic, a glob of burning acid slopped onto his back and Bradley decided it was better to try to get out of the damn snake than sit there trying to figure out why he was there in the first place.

She comes back into the battle only to be swallowed up by a giant snake?! Really?! Well at least she wasn't the only one trapped in here. Time to find a way out yeah? Amy looked around the belly of the snake, thinking she could try slicing her way out with her scythe. A couple of failed attempts later and she was getting frustrated. She managed to climb the pile of bodies gathering where the opening of the snake was, seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. Excited, she climbed towards it, only to cry out as a full pile of bodies tumbled down the snakes throat, the sheer force of it all causing the poor girl to topple. The bodies laded on her, slowly cutting off her oxygen with all the weight. Desperate, she began to slowly crawl forward, managing to free her self before she suffocated completely.

More acid. Why was there more acid? It was eating through his armor, and his tunic and his hair and this was not okay. How'd he run into more acid? There should be, you know, bashing the insides of hte snake so it regurgitated them. Or cutting themselves out. Not being covered in acid!

It smelled.
It smelled like snake, and recently-dead-people, and blood, and more snake, and something else, something strange and acrid and metallic -
Cady let out another squeal as something painful and hot and burning slid down the back of her tunic.
"NOT NICE THINGS ARE HAPPENING."

His whining was answered. Bradley started attacking the snake blindly, not sure what he was hitting. He tried to not smell the space. He really did. He failed that will save. The space shook and then he saw the mouth he'd been taken inside to begin with.

Arcadia was not of the bathing persuasion, but even she could admit she needed at least thirty-seven showers.
She was knee deep in dead people, waist deep in snake bits and somewhere around all the way in in snake gullet.
This time, when it's mouth opened, glint of desperation shone in her eye and she threw herself out and onto the ground with as much force as she could muster.
