Acerola crossed the bridge. Once, she had fallen through, but she was sure she knew what she did wrong that time, and knew what she had to do now.
Acerola crossed the bridge with ease, careful to avoid the rotten plank here and the loose one there.

Acerola encountered the harpies. Sighing, she knew she had to face them in order to reach the top.

Acerola attacked again, surprised by the success of her last attack. Maybe this newer mob was going to be easier than the last?

Acerola slashed the harpies again. They really did seem easier (or possibly more stupid?)

With one last attack, Acerola destroyed the last harpy.
She stepped to the top, admiring the view....or rather, the feeling of the endless drop below, hidden by the fog.

Raumias felt strangely serene in the cliffs. The drop was steep, sure, but Raum didn't really fear the fall-- she just wasn't scared. She didn't much care for pain, but so long as she survived, she would reign. It didn't matter. The mist didn't even dissuade her; she already knew these cliffs, knew what they held if she could make it through.
She climbed, progressed to the plateau.

Next was the bridge.
The last time she'd been here, she flipped slowly over the whole bridge. Perhaps this time she'd, out of exhaustion and desire to enjoy the terrible view, walk.
The thin, unstable bridge didn't really give her time to admire the abyss, exactly, but she nevertheless glanced down more than a few times, watching the rickety bridge sway and threaten to collapse. It was beautiful.

Ah, the harpies. Last time she was here, she'd used them as target practice, puncturing their wings with bullets.
She fired one shot at the nearest one, in warning, as if they might leave her alone if she did so. Not a chance. They raked at her with extended claws.

Almost lazily, she began to pick them off. One by one.
She would aim straight for vital positions, and then pop a bullet into them. Sorrow and Rage, her beloved pistols; she missed something, though. She craved fighting at close range, where she could feel their energy.
But since her opponents were made out of a grey kind of mist, it wasn't that satisfying in the first place. She might as well hone her reflexes popping off shots into them and aiming for the exact right spot at the exact right moment.
One of them raked her claws across Raum's outstretched arm.

The trouble with being wounded was that it became difficult to aim properly. She tried to steady her bad arm across the unwounded one, but it wavered still. She managed to get only one of her fired shots into a Harpy.
As she did so, another one managed to swoop down and knock her off her feet. Raum managed to avoid hurting her arms worse, but she did take a scrape to the side.

Raumias remembered from last time: it was crucial not to let them corner her. Whenever they did, they did far more damage than they would normally. If one of them was attacking her, for example, it became very hard to keep an eye on the skies, and make sure no others were in the process of, say, divebombing her.
Unfortunately, she remembered how important that was as she ended up in that very situation.

This time, she didn't let them get close. She popped off a few shots into the nearest Harpy, bringing it down.
She edged a little further from them, trying to get a good spot to continue to fend them off.

Yet again, Raumias managed only to get one shot into one harpy. What was going on?
She hadn't been this ineffective last time, and she'd barely known how to even use the pistols back then. Was it possible her heart just wasn't in the fight any more?
She was tired. She was tired of fighting. She just wanted to rest, but the voices, the images, the scents wouldn't let her.
She was distracted as a purple-pink shimmer slipped across the back of one of her hands. Before she knew it, it was gone.
