[Asura]

Asura turned back slightly and gave Cronislee an almost gentle gaze. "A worthy thing to say, Sir Knight. But remember, if the time does come for you to die, make sure that you die with your right blade in one enemy, your left blade in another, and your teeth fastened to the throat of the third."

She then turned her heel to follow Zephyr who had just met with Rogue once again. "Do not waste your precious last moments with the satisfaction that you had merely slain your enemy. Take as many as you can down with you to the blood-soaked earth."

The last few words were almost a whisper as she moved past Cronislee. "As General Zephyr says, follow if you would like, but hinder our progress and I do not guarantee your lives."

She walked slightly behind Zephyr until they reached the riverbed. "Shall we proceed, my liege?" she asked in a voice as light as morning mist. She glanced at Rogue, who had a troubled look on her face. She held out a hand and gripped the girl's shoulder. "Steady. Do not fear death, for death is but another fool who cannot escape his occupation."
