*Well this turned out to be much more complicated than Thistle had expected. The guards were not supposed to alert anyone of the team's presence. Everything just got a lot more difficult. Seeing the swordsman advancing on her, Thistle quickly lifted the crossbow and pressed the trigger, without really aiming, then dropped the weapon and, panicking, drew her shortsword. If the bolt wouldn't kill the enemy, she had to be prepared to face him in melee combat. Thistle also turned her head to the side for a split second to see how her allies were doing - and so far it looked like they were doing fine. She then looked back to the guard she was facing, ready to dodge the possibly incoming strike.*

*Despite Akaise's attempts, the rope dart user is able to pull her legs from under her before the fire can burn through the rope, causing her to land on her back. Hitoshi wouldn't be able to hear the stealthy warrior, but her arrow would find its mark in his chest nonetheless, causing him to gasp for air. This would be the swordsman, however, and the rope dart user pulls out a dagger from his clothing, simply waiting.*

*Meanwhile, the fog cloud would have expanded in radius, which I forgot to put in the previous turn, so it's like that now, also enveloping Akaise. Thistle wouldn't be able to see where the bolt went, but it would hit the man's sword shoulder, effectively rendering him useless. She couldn't see it, but she could hear his yell as he screams out.*

*After a few seconds in the fog, the section of rope connecting her to the wielder of the rope dart burned through. Akaise retrieved the rondel dagger from her belt, using its single sharpened edge to cut apart the ropes that had bound her legs.*

*Once she put the rondel dagger back in its sheath, the wizard aimed and fired a Plasma Shot at the position where she had last seen the enemy, intending to hit their center of mass. The light of its telltale magical circle was obscured within the fog, concealed even further by the bright glow of her Arcane Tendrils; due to its telegraph being well-hidden, evading such an attack would be rather difficult.*

*While doing so, her other hand was busy opening the air vent on the left side of her visor. Akaise would be able to breathe and talk once again, though she didn't exactly have much to say. The wizard took the rest of her time to stand up, her tentacles remaining in their defensive positions.*
