Sosiel moves closer, to stand on the opposite side of Butter, so that he can try to get Shalana's attention while he awaits her answer.

nudge, nudge

Spoiler:
Shalana sighs deeply. "I do not understand this group.

One of them will decide, in the middle of combat, to spare the life of what we were just so recently trying to kill. Then, the rest will go along with it. As I try to finish what we all have started, they all will turn against me. I'm not sure our philosophies on what it means to purge the demons mesh well. I do not know what they are trying to accomplish. And they don't seem to want to explain it to me, nor actually listen to what I have to say about it all."

Spoiler:
I think I need to find my own way.

Okay, there's about to be an IC conversation between Shalana and Sosiel. I can tuck it away behind spoilers, but that can become burdensome, so as long as the others are okay with staying out of it and leaving it unheard I can skip the spoiler tags. Until then, it will be hidden.

** spoiler omitted **

Spoiler:
Shalana sees Sosiel's concern, but currently doesn't have the patience to really deal with it.

Spoiler:
"Aron survived. You should probably thank Rogar. Not so much the rest of the group. As far as I know, the temple has been purged, so there shouldn't be much threat to us from this location. Knowing Zaigan, he probably wants to sanctify it or something, and could probably use some help." The last sentence is spoken with some exasperation.

Spoiler:
As the shield touches the ground, Shalana steps off and starts to move purposely toward Butter.

Spoiler:
I'll try to keep the action to a minimum in these posts,
allowing for character interactions.

"I however still am expecting an answer to my question. I'd like to know where it is we stand. Are we safe to close our eyes or do we need to post watch against our own?"

"I have not done anything to warrant that insinuation."

Shalana peers at Ansiris, then reflects back.

"But, have you?"

Shalana grabs her gear and starts moving toward Butter.

"Wake me for my watch. Carefully."

"There will be a time to morn and honor our fallen heroes". She looks at the battlefield and with a heavy heart she looks away.

"We must try to do our best to take care of the injured." She looks at Ansiris and Zaigan "We must make sure we heal as best we can tonight. The next couple of days will be tough, morale is at a low, we need to lift spirits as best we can. We all need to talk to Shalana. She's not exactly kind with her words." She looks at Ansiris and says "We also need to keep an eye on my commander, he was feeling down before the battle, I bet he really feels down now!"

She finds Shalana "I'm sure you must have noticed that many died to to recapture this place. Morale is going to be low for a while, it would be helpful if you could go out of your way to be nice and thoughtful to everyone. I know it's a lot to ask, but we need you to really, really be sensitive to everyone's fragile emotions."
She looks at Shalana to see how she reacts to the request. " We need to lift spirits and morale."

Shalana is taken aback.

We fought a glorious battle against a demon horde, and won in the end. There was no "loss" of life. There were honorable deaths, and the deeds we saw today will be sung about for centuries. Do not mourn for those "lost" lives; take heart that there is enough honor to push back the demons. And tell their stories that all may know of their glorious actions.

Shalana shakes her head.

The only emotion that will be of any use here is determination. We cannot afford to cater to "fragile" emotions.

Shalana is searching for demons and their allies.

I wish the hair were darker, but otherwise the avatar is ok.
