She needed a break, a moment away from all the running, from the people trying to stab her in the jugular. Do you know what that feels like? The constant sense of having to glance over behind yourself, making sure another trio of goons isn't coming to let all your ruby red out of your veins? Probably not, Cecile knows though, she's got that near twenty-four-seven since she came to the Clover Kingdom. On the lam, fleeing from the Thieves' Guild. They wanted her back, dead, of course. She cut ties with them boldly and declared open war against them.
Since she came to this fine country through the Witches' Forest, she was on the lookout for a hideout, a place to call home, and get away when she needed to. A base of operations so to speak. But today though, she was heading down into the deep cavernous valleys of the Forsaken Region. Sivert Lake was her destination! Having spare Yul on hand since her theft of it from her previous boss, she was getting herself settled in lakeside with nothing but relaxing in mind. The thought in her head, 'there is utterly no potential way that this can go wrong.'
The jinx of a fallen angel needed to learn when to stop thinking that and just let it go before she jinxed herself again and got into more trouble!
Plenty of couples were gathered today, either enjoying a boat ride out on the placid lake surface or trying to enjoy some picnic baskets. The wealthier ones got to enjoy the lakehouse resort on the other end of the lake. But, with this many people gathered, and this being the Forsaken Region, even the worst could happen.
The sky began to darken, a whirling mass of dark clouds coalesced in the sky to a fine point before a black bolt of lightning shot down into the water, striking all of the ways at the bottom of the lake. The ground shook, waves rose up and crashed back down. People started to go into a panic of course. Meanwhile, Cecile just had a twitch in her eyebrow as the water rose, turned in to a massive golem. People with the bravery to fight started trying to fend off the thing. A few off duty magic knights no doubt. Cece just sighed. Getting her grimoire ready to be on medic duty, and be the talk of the town for her magic...again...
