Astra grunted her thanks to the Fey as she was healed a second time, but stayed quiet. Her ears were perked, and she was trying to fix on where people were, to keep mindful of the people around her. After all, she'd already lost a leg, and her fey companion was so much more vulnerable, with those diaphanous wings of theirs.
She kept an eye out for another opening, staying quiet and wordless as the tumultuous noises around them washed over. After a glance up to make sure that whatever had dropped down on them before wasn't going to make an imminent connection, Astra struck at Javlin again.

I'm so sorry, Moony. Astra doesn't get any of the healing. So many tears!

Amulet Attack!
Amulet Element: Electricity HP: 57/60 Damage Caused: 4 (+2 type advantage) It was obviously they all felt like they were battling for their lives. The hybrid who’s leg had been taken off earlier had even kept attacking even though they were really really hurt. How could Baum do no less. He wasn’t soo bad off considering some of the others. He could do this. Concentrate on amulet and attack outwards. The corrupted wouldn’t show pity or mercy, so Baum wouldn’t either. He had hesitated in the first fight and Kingston had gotten bit. He had waited and helped other people in this fight and so many had serious wounds enough that their healers couldn’t handle everyone, enough that they’d lose some of their healers when the infection caught up with them.
So baum concentrated and attacked Javlin again. Even if Baum was weirded out at the response to the attacks.

Sorry for the double quote. if it actually double quoted. the quoting when i posted the first time went completely bonky.
Stand... aim... and ready herself. Astra was dead tired and probably trembling more than a little bit, but as long as she could still focus her eyes and find someone to attack, she would do so. The hybrid focused intently, eyes scanning the crowd for a break... and then for a flash of the corrupted naiad when she saw one. It was a waiting game, and a nerve-racking one at that, but it was worthwhile if it meant she could take him down.
There! Readying herself, she moved to let out an arc... and almost did so before someone small ran in front of her, pursued by one of the infected. As soon as she was out of the way, she let loose once again.

Kingston hadn't realized how the attacks had affected him until he wiped some blood off his face. When had that happened? Probably when Annabelle had attacked him... Or even when that creature had. The fact that Anabelle was being controlled by them made his hackles raised. This next attack was for her. Kingston wasn't giving Phobos an inch as he reached out to claw at Phobos once more.

Amulet Attack!
Amulet Element: Electricity HP: 57/60 Damage Caused: 4 (+2 type advantage) They had to be getting close to beating the general. Baum had done some minor damage and had definitely felt the effects of putting yourself out there to attack someone. They would bring down this general and then the hybrid could maybe be carried off for better medical attention or something. Plus Baum could find Kingston and hopefully give him his name. Wait no stop thinking about the hurt and telling people his name. Don’t let the enemy time to counter attack. Attack. Focus on attacking. He could let his worrying nature come in later. They could do this. They could.
Deep breath and attack again. It would be easy. He could do it. So he did and let off another attack on Javlin.
Kingston growled and lunged at Phobos. Would it be a bad idea to bite him? Maybe that irritating horn on his head would be safe. What if Kingston snapped that stupid thing off? Maybe he could distract Annabelle with a game of fetch with it! He lashed out at the dryad creature once more.

Astra turned to see another crackle of lightning arc and snap its way through the air, before turning to look at the one who'd sent it. Good! If there were people working together on this, maybe they could finally... just... see him fall for good.
The problem was, though, she couldn't find an opening. And with no opening in sight, and a missing leg, there was no way she could help with the situation at hand, not until one opened up. She watched pensively, hand still over her amulet as she waited for a chance to strike out again.

Amulet Element: Electricity HP: 57/60 Damage Caused: 4 (+2 type advantage) They had to be almost there... sure he had said that only a few minutes ago but really how much more health for lack of a better word did this general have. then again Baum could have sworn he had knocked the corrupted goblin out and here they were running around and attacking people again. Well really there was nothing more to do than keep attacking and so he would. He would at least help bring down one general.
So he did and attack Javlin with the amulet one more time.
This time, when she saw an opening in the crowd, there was no purple. No Javlin. Nothing apparent to strike at, nothing obvious like he was, and Astra stood there, seemingly impotent without the person who'd hurt her to lash out at. She turned around, eyes wide. Was he–??
No, he couldn't be behind her, that was a wall. And he hadn't shown the ability to jump up into the rafters, like that other one lurking up.
As the hallowed chimera let off another crack in an unexpected direction, she saw him– but the people were getting in the way, and the opening was closing. She turned, pushing herself away from the hybrid who'd healed her with a shout, and letting one last massive crack of lightning off at the Naiad.

I think that leaves Javlin at 0HP! Fitting payback, I think.

For all appearances, the fish was down. And Astra didn't feel any better. Her leg was throbbing dully, nausea pulling at her. Was this how the others had felt? It was awful. She wouldn't have wished this on anyone– not until she'd met the ones who'd done this, at least.
She turned, seeing a flurry of bloodied grey-black–a warg– hurtle into someone else. One of those was surely a cannibal... but which one of the two should she target? She worked at dragging herself a little closer, and tried to stay out of notice as she watched things unfold.
If she could just figure out which one to attack....
Kingston stopped for just a second, breathing heavily and staring down at the monster. He was covered in blood, both fresh and drying. His maw was parted and he was drooling just a little. "I... will never forgive you for what you've done..." He growled, standing upright and launching himself at Phobos once again.
Breathing deeply, sucking in air through her mouth and forcing it out of her nose to try to combat the nausea and keep her focus, Astra wobbled a little bit. She kept her eyes trained on the warg attacking the smaller figure, looking for some hint of which one to attack–
And there it was. The warg's eyes were a plain brown, possibly reddish, but as it moved, she clearly saw the vile glow in the other's eyes. That was it! A scan around the room– how had she not clued into the fact that the Corrupted all had glowing, black-scleraed eyes? The chances of them all having geist blood– let alone it expressing in that exact, unique fashion, they were far too small.
She hefted herself a little closer before she let her magic loose on the one the warg was attacking.

What... What was that arc of light? Kingston was momentarily snapped out of his blind rage by the lightning that streaked past him to hit Phobos. His eyes slid over to look at Astra. "Thanks for the assist!" He half barked, leaping into the air, attempting to clobber Phobos once more. He had his claws out, hoping to rend his smug stupid face off.
But there was a nagging feeling in the back of his mind. That kid with the lightning... they didn't look good. Had they been bitten?
Astra almost smiled, eyes flicking from side to side in what could almost be considered an eyeroll. "Yeah, I just crawl around in the dirt... for fun. Care to... care to give me a leg up?" the girl replied to the giant wolf-monster. She gave a shudder, then gripped her amulet tighter as her vision swam. Okay, just take it easy. You've probably lost a lot of blood, you're not doing that bad, all things considered. Just keep your eyes peeled, and take every opportunity to make them hurt. If push came to shove, Astra wanted to be dead before she could turn. Maybe... maybe drawing attention like this wasn't so bad, after all.
This new wave of self-sacrificial lasted about ten seconds, until the cannibal that the Grimm had been attacking took a step in her general direction. With a small shout, she let off another arcing crack, completely blind to anything other than fighting the perceived threat off for that moment.
