[spoiler]Good choice. If she tried helping Jeremiah, he would have died [/spoiler]

[b]Hawkwood entered a tunnel, leading into a strange room that had an aura of religion around it.
The Knight stopped beneath the large hand, turning to face Altar. [/b]
"[i]Why would thou risk thy life to help these Knights? "[/i]
English
-
"I'm helping Vince. If wants to help these knights, then so do I."
-
[i]"Then you will fall."[/i] [b]Hawkwood raised his blade with his right hand, and pointed it towards Altar as he placed his left hand over his chest, touching his right shoulder. [/b] [i]"Surely you will deny me a good battle." [/i]
-
"Listen, I don't like killing, but I will if I must." She readies herself, raising her sword and shield.
-
[spoiler]That face when Hawkwood dissed her[/spoiler] "[i]Thou may make the first move. "[/i]
-
Her eyes flashed and her sword sends out a bolt of magic, straight for Hawkwood's chest. [spoiler]She mad boi[/spoiler]
-
[b]Hawkwood rolled to the side, and threw out a throwing knife with his left hand[/b]
-
She blocked the knife with her shield and began rapidly firing the bolts at at Hawkwood.
-
[b]Hawkwood sprinted through the room, getting behind the cover of the large hand in the middle. [/b]
-
Altar stops firing. "So, what's with the hand."
-
"[i]Thou Doth not understand. The Hand reaches toward the sky, toward the Gods. "[/i]
-
"Um...OK."
-
[b]Hawkwood spun out of cover, throwing two knives toward her [/b]
-
She ducked under the knives and ran forward, reaching cover behind a random crate.
-
[spoiler]....[/spoiler] [b]Hawkwood began moving forward, keeping his Sword up [/b]
-
[spoiler]...........[/spoiler] "Why is Kross doing this!?" Altar leapt over the crate and fired a powerful bolt at Hawkwood.
-
[b]Hawkwood rolled to the side, but it went over his shoulder and grazed it slightly, leaving a cut. Hawkwood visibly grimace, looking up at Altar [/b] "[i]Lord Kross has realized the error of these lands, Lord Kross will purify them. "[/i]
-
"Oh, he's gone loopy then."
-
[i]"HOW DARE YOU?! Lord Kross simply seeks to better this world. This land!"[/i]
-
"I'm sure Kross has good intentions but siccing his Abysswalker on people is not the way to better the land."
-
[i]"Artorias rescued Royal from the grasp of you mad ones! Why cannot thou understand?" [/i]
-
"Because of when he showed up. Vince was taking Royal to the infirmary. He was badly hurt and Artoes or whatever shows up and spirits him off."
-
"[i]Your medicine would not be worthy of Royal's blood!"[/i]
-
"Groan. Yes I just said groan." She jumps up and unleashed a massive shockwave, knocking Hawkwood across the room. She follows up with a restriction spell, pinning him against the wall.
-
[b]Given how suddenly this had happened, Hawkwood was successfully pinned against the wall, staring at Altar[/b] [i]"If I cannot defeat Thou, than surely someone else shall!" [/i]
-
"Your speech annoys me. I hate the word 'thou'." She delivers a series of punches to his head, rendering him unconscious. After this she goes to see how Jeremiah fared against the dragon.
