[ With a 4... There is no more vore! The monster's jaw is disconnected thanks to Vin's attack. Living Shadow makes its appearance, beckoning to Vin's desperate call to protect those she holds dear. It's stronger because of it, so it runs into the beast's maw and lines its blade against its body from the inside. It bleeds black, it pooling out but not staining Kashuu and Ruby much, maybe their legs at most.
It's almost dead, movements slowed, but it tries anyway to thrash. This has Ruby cut by its teeth, cutting a deep gash into her shoulder. She does well to not collapse to her knees... She stays upright as she runs to Vin, to fuss over her. This should make Vin happy, but she can't even find a single light. Instead, she feels the vines under her skin again. They hold onto her tighter.
For Kashuu, there should be relief, too, but the heavy depression weighing dragon tons of bricks is still there. How many people has he lost? Not here, but in all those wars before. He must hate it, to see beloved humans fight each other till their end, but... If war were to end, who would pick him up? Who would praise him? There is no use for a sword without conflict.
The wisps, too, are still dark and wildly spinning around them.
Vin and Kashuu might be in deep despair (permanent), but Ruby has brightened so much seeing them. They saved one (1). Vin's presence fended off Ruby's grey wisps... For a moment there is peace. They can maybe check on Vix and Aymeric? ]
