Helen, as the bottom legs, runs to escape Mercy's assault upon the outpost. Coral's arms flail as they run.

Coral
* Whoa!!

—Bonedemon—
We're under attack!!

Ahhaah-- The fire flies no flag
and knows no colours!

AHAHAHAHAA!!!

Coral
* Helen!! We need to tell Mercy we're--!

—Helen—
NOPE!! Not taking our chances--!

A plasma explosion behind Helen and Coral launches them away. Coral falls from Helen's shoulders.

—Helen—
GNGH!

Coral
* AGHH!!


The pair of them fall off of an outpost overlook, rolling down a steep incline to the woods below. Their armour bounces off in pieces.



The bottom of the hill comes abruptly, and the girls land with a thud.

—Helen—
OW!

Helen rolls over and checks on Coral, who is currently writhing on the ground. She breathes shallow and sweat beads on her brow.

—Helen—
Hey Coral, are you...?

Coral
* Aaaa-- aagggh--!
* Fffffffuck! Fuck! Aughh...!

—Helen—
...Alright.

Helen takes Coral by the shoulders to gently help her sit up.

—Helen—
Come on, get your face outta the dirt...

Coral
* Ow, ow ow ow, God...
* God...

—Helen—
Where's it hurt?

Coral
* It's-- ugh-- my chest, I think? On the side?
* Like a stabbing... kind of... fffuck.

—Helen—
Yeah, something's definitely broken. Probably a rib or three.
Let's get you a potion.

Coral
* Thanks...

Helen uncorks a potion bottle. The little ponk sound it makes jolts a realisation into Coral.

—Helen—
Alright, shirt off.

Coral
* Shirt--? Oh, no no no!!

—Helen—
Coral--

Coral
* On, on second thoughts-- I'll just walk it off! It's fine!

—Helen—
Like heck it is.
You were just crying out like your dog died. No offense.

Coral
* Please, I mean-- we should be conserving our resources, and, I can still...

—Helen—
So if we put that armor back on, you could still do your tough guy act? Even with the pain you're in now?

Coral
* I... I'm sure I could just...

Helen undoes Coral's bow.

—Helen—
Come on, ya doofus...

She ties it around her own head, covering her eyes like a blindfold.

—Helen—
...Better?
I promise I won't look.

Coral
* Ah...!
* Okay...

Coral
* ...Um, thank you.
* Okay, ready...
