Elluka gags, as planned, but to keep a blade from sinking into her skull, the witch attempts to grab Renia's wrist and channel some sort of heat or something into it, praying she burned her or something. Then she realized how stupid that was. If the Master of the Heavenly Yard had sent Renia to get that child...he wasn't about to let her win a fight. Unless that stupid child saw what he was doing made no sense...the witch was screwed royally in this fight.
Another low growl rumbled through the beast's chest as he stalked around the dunes, trying to track down his prey. "I just want the girl. Hand her over so I can return her to the big guy, and I'll leave the rest of you alone." The graveyard-guard promises, sniffing the air, then sneezing from the sand that was still in the air. "This is not my day, not my day at all. First his royal prickness comes demanding Re and I track down this girl, then my nose gets busted...and Re's going to neuter me or something if I don't succeed.." The god moans, swapping back into human form. Besides looking scary, the hyena form was useless with his nose broken. The chase was over at the moment, so the form of the big lumbering beast wouldn't help at all. Pushing back his mask to gingerly touch his nose, he winces almost instantly, recoiling as if he were burnt.
