Lords of Creation: Boundless Wonder, Endless Strife. [IC]

[Elemental]

Maela and the Clerics
Save for Amathol who I'm keeping at the Palace to help coordinate its defence and the evacuation of civilians.

Maela and the others hurried to the North Wall. On their way, they saw a group of wounded soldiers and another of wounded civilians.
Despite being ordered to heal the wounded so that they could return to the fight, she couldn't abandon the civilians.
Apologies my Lord... But circumstances have changed.
Turning to the Clerics, she addressed them.
We need to help both groups. Half of you go with the civilians, and the other half, follow those soldiers to whatever field hospital they're using.
I'll head up to the wall myself.
Maela bowed to them.
I may never see you again. Spread the teachings and bring healing to all. And may you always know kindness.
Godspeed.
With this, Maela took wing and flew up to the wall.
Together, the other Clerics bowed their heads.
Godspeed and may you always know kindness.
They hurried to their tasks, without turning to glance back.

Up on the North Wall

Landing on the Wall, Maela saw a wounded Knight near death. Kneeling beside him, she decided that healing him would be the most fitting use of her new power.
Placing her hands over his heart, she gave a silent prayer to Belsheroth.
She felt divine power flow through her and into the man, his wounds closing and his breath becoming easier. His eyes opened, and he looked up at her.
Angel... You have come to escort me to Hell.

Note: He only thinks she's an Angel because she's Ravenkind, and thus has wings, and he thinks he's dead. Plus, she's reasonably attractive and glowing slightly...
(He's still suffering the after effects of blood loss.)

Maela smiled.
No. Now is not your time.
I have come to join the fight, and bring the divine power of Lord Belsheroth to heal and to protect.
Then you truly are an Angel.
I would be flattered, but the world burns around us. Are you strong enough to walk yet?
Yes, though I'd much rather sit here with you.
I'll see if I can find Edgard.
Maela looked down at the battlefield as the Knight got to his feet. With a flick of her wrist, she deflected an arrow away from him.
We don't seem to have time for that Sir Knight.
She raised her hands, a barrier of shifting colours covered the outer surface of the North Wall.
What does that do?
I'm not sure. The important thing is that they don't know.
She gestured to the Ice Kin and the new threat.
Now, where am I needed?
With a flick of her wrist, she deflected a pair of arrows otherwise destined for them.
That's the third time you've saved my life, and I do not even know your name. I will take you to Edgard. He'd know how best to deploy your skills.
