[VIGIL Ruins]
The Portal grumbles loudly in frustration. On the one hand he knows his no-killing policy is his alone, and not Oaks. But on the other hand, if he watched while she killed something or someone, wouldn't that make him complicit in their deaths? The Portal moves a few feet away from where the bird will fall. He concentrates, and an invisible area forms around the bird where time slows down. He manages to slow it's descent to a point where the fall shouldn't kill the bird. By the time it hits the ground he is sweating heavily and panting, clearly forming such an effect isn't easy for him.
