[It's been a while since Luke was in a real battle. Most of the time, the sounds of explosions were muffled and distant as they hid underground. But this hails back to that one time-- a time which is a little fuzzy, admittedly-- but he's sure it's because he and Asch had died. But he's alive here and now, and far away from Auldrant, and there isn't anything he can do about it.
This isn't the first time he's had to deal with war. Hopefully it'll be the last. Although he's not happy, he understands there are more important things to deal with. If they screw up in this forest, they'll die.
He's thankful, at least, that he has his weapon. He glances around, fingers tightening around the hilt of his sword.]
I-- I'll see what I can do!
[He can at least protect the mage while he works on the portal. He's used to protecting Jade and the other fonists in combat. It can't be that much different, even though this world doesn't have a trace of the technology that ruled Exsilium.
That's probably a good thing, but his mind keeps wandering in the direction of home. Where's Asch? Is he okay? Will they be able to go home sooner or later and actually stay?
How many people will he have to kill for this war to end?]
open! (redsworn)
