<strong>Character:</strong>Helena Vogel (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=311812.msg15116297#msg15116297)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Rush Valley<br/><strong>Player:</strong>Crensler<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Open<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Helena realized her attempt at humor had fallen entirely flat, deciding to just let it go for the sake of not making the situation any more awkward than it already was.  "Thanks," she said instead, resolving to just enjoy the cold treat, until, that is, something seemed to explode in the distance.  Her pulse sped up, adrenaline spiking through her blood stream as memories of the war came to mind.  She wondered what had caused the explosion, but that question was soon answered by fleeing survivors, the mercenary able to piece together their story from the snippets she caught on her way to follow those that went to investigate.  A mining accident... wonderful.<br/><br/>"I am," she replied when the kind stranger from earlier asked for an alchemist.  While working with dirt and rock wasn't her specialty, she was no slouch when it came to such things, either.  "I need chalk, or something else to draw on the ground with.  I'll also need people ready to rescue any survivors inside while I stabilize the structure."
