plot } the creatures descend.
Who: Everyone!
What: Creatures descend!
Where: All across the city, although attacks will be most fervent at its heart.
When: Friday/Veerdi evening and into the week.
Notes: Slow and back-tagging is, as always, permitted. If you are confused, look at these two posts for more information.
Warnings: Violence, creepiness, swearing knowing these characters.
On Veerdi, the presence of the creatures reaches a fever pitch. Something has provoked them into launching an all-out assault, though it is one that begins slowly. The pipe-crawlers, generally harmless though they may be, are seen across homes in Baedal, sneaking up through the pipes and into bathtub drains or sinks. They come by the dozens, and their keening makes most homeowners nauseated--but it's their appearance that leads to a number of distressed Network calls.
This is just the distraction for the rest.
The call of the crawlers draws in the armored, sickly creatures with the tiny primates carried inside of it. They are inelegantly lumbering, but much faster than one might expect, and certainly hostile. They trudge across the city, barreling over anyone who gets in their path and leaving them half-crushed in the street. They're certainly unsettling in their obvious unhealthiness, and the disease-ridden animals they carry are downright vicious, especially once they escape (messily, bloodily) from their fleshy cage.
It's the birds that are the worst, though; the cleverest, and the cruelest.
These strange black birds are resistant to typical attacks and flying in large groups. They descend on pedestrians, picking at their eyes and faces, ready to rapidly tear flesh from bone until there's nothing left but skeletal remains. They fly out of range when they can, only to divebomb anyone who might think they've escaped.

The magic, too, is startling.
She turns her head to watch the charring birds' bodies as they ride on, wondering what, exactly, she's gotten herself into now.

Decent chainmail wouldn't, either, but if wishes were horses and all that.
"Another new arrival, I take it," he says, not quite over his shoulder as Kalten's pace evens out and he rests a hand on the pommel of his sword. Outside the Inn and looking lost, he's inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt that she isn't simply such a fool as to have been better off left to her fate.
(He is perhaps not the most ideal of rescuers.)

That 'can't' is both because she's extrapolated it's not utter madness all the time by the functioning architecture and city system, and because she simply refuses to accept being transported to someplace so brutally barbaric at all hours. Refuses.

He considers briefly giving her one of the knives hidden on him, but for the time being opts not to risk being accidentally stabbed between the ribs next time something startles her.

"Martel," he says, after a moment. "And you are?"

And then, with the realization he probably has no idea what that means and what a relief: "Or just...Six."
