Not this again. It seems every time Christine is hoping for peace and quiet, what she gets instead is an all out battle. Though she's been supporting King Ardis these last few weeks by tending to his soldiers and the farmers outside the city at his request, she really doesn't see him being the leader the city needs. Perhaps he's tired of co-ruling Didymos with his sister, perhaps he really does have the city's best interests at heart, but Christine believes Lykos knows what this city needs in the end, whether it's himself in charge or not.

And so Christine can be found first in the back line of Ardis' forces, healing them when she can, using defensive spells to protect when she sees an opportunity. Later she veers more towards where the rebels are fighting within the city as well. All the while, her actions are shown to mainly be defensive. Ice walls to block enemies from winded rebels, gusts of wind to push the Defenders back, and always as much healing as she can spare before she's sapped of strength and has to fall back to rest. When the two great wolves arrive, she sends Azoth flying above while she hides in an alley so she can look through Azoth's eyes and get a better look at the wolves. They're different, certainly, but they must have weaknesses too.

And what she learns is strange. Azoth follows the white wolf, and this one is ripping up the streets themselves, hardly attacking people unless they stand in its way. It runs full on into building walls, shaking its head before moving back to rip up the streets. Christine can't tell why it's doing this, or if running into buildings is something it's meaning to do. If it's a cursed creature, perhaps there's a person inside trying to knock themselves out? It's hard to say, but once there's an opening, she calls Azoth back to her and runs from the alley, reaching for the nearest person.

"Are you seeing what that white wolf is doing?"
