Either he was going to die or her minions were. Though she had a preference, it mattered not to Heliinx which one it was.

As for her soldiers, they were inured to terror by the sheer difference in numbers between them for in numbers, there was power. However, Skruen had a power all his own and Heliinx spotted it in the midst of the carnage. She saw how his flesh knit back together and how he seem to be completely absent of fear. His war-musk was strong, preternaturally so, and had the effect driving everyone present into a death-frenzy.

Except her staid and stoic guard; they simple sat at the ready, never abandoning her side. Heliinx eyed them with suspicion. Depending on how this turned out, it wasn’t out of the question they, too, would need to be desposed of.

But one thing was for certain: This ratkin was some Master Moulder’s experiment. Probably an escapee. Dodging bounties? He had to be.

The shadows of the brushes and canopies held no answer to his call-out, as all went silent around Skruen, except for the mild breeze of the woods themselves, bristling through fur and foliage alike and causing both to gently flutter in the air. Then, a more forceful rustle was heard from a set of brushes, set at 1 o’clock from Skruen’s current position-

*P-THOOM*

Another blowdart fired, this one aiming for the right side of his midsection, aiming right between the smallest of gaps in the Stormvermin’s armor. Naturally, Skruen would easily hear this as well and could deflect it if he wished to. But that seems to be when his assailant revealed himself;

As if appearing by magic, from thin air, a form started to take shape in a tree above him, hanging upside-down by a branch from a prehensile, curled tail, with big round eyes flickering in every angle before centering on Skruen. A Chameleon Skink, here? So far from the jungles of Lustria?

 “You parried well, ratling. But still not fast enough to impress me. I’ve seen Nurglings with better reflexes than you~”
