The silence attack finds its mark. The assassin furrows her brows at the relief she feels, first voices in her head and now she’s happy she can’t use vital attacks? Is Yunalesca’s madness contagious? Distracted with her thoughts, Richard’s warning snaps her attention to the burrowing serpents.

Ur hu!

Criss crossing the daggers in front of her face, Rikku hunches defensively, bracing herself for the inevitable. The fiend lashes twice, finding exposed flesh at the girl’s neck, then pulling back to bite a second time into her chest. She cries out as the creature pierces through her like paper.

When the snake slithers back she slouches forwards, raising a hand to the seeping gouge in neck. Why hadn’t she thought to tell everyone to heal as much as possible as soon as they started fighting? Now, it was too late. The sick deep ache of zombie, her stomach turns sour. She could never forget it.

As the dust of the attack settles she cries out a warning to her comrades, “Don’t use anything that heals, nothing! Anything that normally helps will hurt or kill you now!”
