They took the night, to rest, to find a home, near the outskirts of the little town. They spent a few hours, mulling over finding themself face to face with Caustic, upon entering their new home. Clearly it was not coincidence. They had spoken, briefly. Stiffly. Perhaps they would seek him out come morning, to have a real discussion. Alone.
A raven had already begun to build its nest, next to the mess of blankets and cloth they had scrounged up to lay upon. Close to the window. Close to them. It reminds them of Artur, their raven companion. Their previous life, their previous home, now long out of reach. They look out the open window, into the encroaching night, and slowly drift asleep, chin propped up on the sill.
They awaken to a bright light, shooting across the sky. A childlike wonder, and then sobering fear fills them. It was much too close to the ground. They can hear worried voices below, can see a few animals scattering. They bark, rousing the raven. This would not be pretty. They snatch the bird up into their jaws, minding its wings, but keeping it secure, as they dash out of the house. Anywhere without a roof over their head was safe. They release the frantic, cawing raven, and it flutters up, landing on their back and pecking at their mask. They suppose they can deal with a carrion bird's ire, for the moment.
The ground trembles, as the meteor hits. The sound makes their ears ring, oh, too much. Much too much. They can't help but feel a little shocked to their core. And then they see a few buildings collapse. Homes, crumbling, furniture falling. They can hear shouting in the distance, the General, and Aurum. Come to the town square. They take their time, running first to the collapsing buildings in sight, calling out to anyone still inside, concerned.
"Hello? Is anyone in there?"
All they receive is silence, a face full of dust, and a very concerned raven, cawing in their ear. They begin to cough, taking a few steps back, leaning on the rubble. Their body shakes with the effort of it. It takes them a few moments to steady their breathing, but they know that they can't afford to worry about it, with lives at stake. They start to run, turning down a side street, following the scent of the others that had made it to the square.
They keep their attention to the square as they near it, looking for anyone familiar. Anyone, as if there was anyone they knew here besides Caustic. But... even so. They keep an eye out for their Felagí, out of concern. Did he get out okay? Did he need help?
They run up to Leroy, bowing their head in a quick greeting. "I am going to help get others to safety." They do not wait for an answer, simply making sure Leroy was aware that they were well. They take one last glance over the crowd, before running back into town. Their raven friend flaps its wings, and takes off, scouting the skies.
