"I set it on fire, it all burns up before we can get a look at it. Near, maybe-- oi, hang on--!"

This last part is delivered in a fierce and urgent whisper, as Matthias realizes Edgard has gone dashing off after all. He goes to step after him, then thinks better of it as the thready forms of the wraiths come streaming into sight.

With a muttered curse, Matthias crouches down, trying to avoid the notice of the wraiths for the immediate moment. He'll not be leaving Edgard to face them alone, just need to work out what he can do--only then there's that strange and all-too-familiar dry dull crackling, and a glow off to the left, in amid the trees. The clubbed form of a rage demon is surging toward them.

[poleaxed]

Without much change in tone, "Can you set it on fire now?"

But, oh, there's a bloody demon on the way. Jone has her poleaxe at the ready, and tries to back up into a defensive position. This isn't exactly altruistic-- if she takes the first few hits, her reaver's strength kicks in faster.

"'kinell," she murmurs under her breath. "He's a big one, ain't he."

What the fuck is stealth?

Edgard makes it to the structure and steps right up to it. It doesn't look like a shelter. He sighs. It's not his day. A weird glow illuminates the wood to show weird markings he can't read and...is it blood? Edgard nearly backs away from it, but stops. Weird glow?

He turns around to see a lot of wraiths and the others facing a rage demon.

"Putain." He whispers and draws his bow. He sends an arrow in the direction of the demon.
