"Oh dear..." As a sidenote Maya could probably get Morgan to aid her with this so...

Seeing that the fighter in his current position would likely not last for much longer, Ecquis decided that he would go prepare for dealing with that hooded figure. That being said, with all of the houses around, perhaps there was something to be found? "Anna, I'm going on ahead. Think you could find anything valuable around here?" he asks before flying off. Moves to R11

Klaren may have gone down, but he cleaned up the field rather well. Also between Serene and Rosa, that fighter is gone.

Can we just take this moment to realize that in the last 3 worlds, a Brazilian team has taken a game off of a #1 team?

I think once Radburn is secured (which shouldn't take too much longer) we can start poking ???. That way we can just transition between one objective to another.

Potentially. Maybe you'll end up dodging a hit, or mage prioritizes other people.

Technically since you can fight back from range the mage doesn't have to target you. There's some clause about provoke where if there is an enemy in range that can't retaliate, it will go for that one. Passive Effect Enemies will attack you over other allied units, except for those who cannot counter attack.

Ecquis was glad to see that Terrin's attack had finally hit the mark. Though he felt that the undead jailer would likely rise back up, he didn't think that he would last much longer after that. Looking past, he saw everyone else en route to catch the fighter that was going by with the Dragao soldier. Ecquis decided to follow north to do what he could. Moves to W12

Nah, if he targets one of the mages he'll probably die instantly. So that's something. Unless Serene can just burn him to the ground now.

"Rather disappointing really."

Looking at map, its certainly close, but it is possible to intercept the fighter and save Radburn. Neat. Also rip that poor troub.

Happy birthday. Did you get out of bronze btw?

Ecquis chuckled at Anna's remarks, taking the concoction that he had purchased. He then looked over to Ian. "We'll be back as soon as we deal with this little infestation," he told him. Uses Concoction.

"Indeed it is," Ecquis laughed, handing Anna the 5 Dragons he had found previously. It was good that this whole deal worked out well. Now he wouldn't have to sit on the brink for too much longer. "I personally am glad to welcome you, and I hope that we will do further business in the future."

"I would certainly hope so, considering that the price otherwise is my life," Ecquis answered back. "Speaking of which, while I was coming over here, I noticed you handled yourself quite well in battle. I know that traveling merchants can often run into quite a bit of trouble on the road. Especially now that things like this can happen," Ecquis said, nodding over to the undead scattered across the field. "With that said, allow me to make one more request. While I can't compare your beauty with your other sisters, I can say that you are a very strong woman. Someone like that would be nice to have around. Of course, we'll also make sure that you and Ian can get around without too much pestering. The rest of my group shall see to that. So what do you say, care to join us?" Ecquis asked the pair.

"Well then, that sounds rather nice. Normally, I would probably just ask Ian for his but...since you are family of a friend and such and I know how much you all love making sales...I suppose I'll indulge you this one time," Ecquis remarks. Ecquis then looks over to Ian, knowing that he did have some extra concoctions based on how he was speaking. "Perhaps the two of us can get acquainted after all of this is dealt with. That is of course provided that this concoction is indeed as advertised. You wouldn't do anything to a paying customer would you now?" Ecquis teases Anna.

"Well, who said it was stealing? I feel that my services in helping you out would be worth something. I did go out of my way to make sure those archers wouldn't stick around you for too long. Nearly cost me, but I've had worse run-ins. Also, your prices sound good for a brand new concoction...provided it was new. Which it isn't. But that's neither here or there." Ecquis told the pair. He knew Anna would do quite a bit to make a sale, though if he could Ecquis would rather save some money for other things. "So then Ian,you're blind? That may explain why Anna is here with you. But since you two are together, I'll leave the decision to you. Do you feel that my aid is worth that of a concoction?" he persuaded Ian.

Ecquis had been around Anna Clara long enough to know that the family loves money quite a bit. He also knew that they loved to make up prices to get as much gold as they could. Additionally, Ecquis did not have that amount on him. At this point though, Ecquis noticed the other man with her. Perhaps he could circumvent this all together? One way to find out. "Oh, are you a friend of Anna? Who might you be, and more importantly, do you happen to have some healing supplies on hand?" Ecquis asked the person who was apparently named Ian.

"Well, some of the others with me are in the process of dealing with these creatures. At the moment, one of them seems to have carried off one of the soldiers that was back up north. I'm not sure exactly what they are planning with him, but if my hunch is correct...its certainly not good," he explains. If Burt was here in an undead form, would they do the same to that soldier who fell? Ecquis wasn't willing to take the risk. "Also, some healing equipment would be nice. I burned through most of mine dealing with those archers. And the pesky fighter back there. Do you happen to have any with you?" he decides to ask

"Oh, that would explain things then. My word, she wasn't kidding when she said they all looked exactly alike," Ecquis mused for a moment, realizing that this Anna is not the one he knew from Caelum. Still, they were related, so that was something. "I should explain, I happen to be acquainted with your sister Anna Clara. I ran into her in the deserts of Caelum where she was stuck in the sands. I ended up helping her out there and we just became friends from there. She also took care of me while I was staying in Caelum. She mentioned that she had twin sisters, but I see now that the resemblance truly is uncanny," Ecquis finishes.

"Thank you my friend," Ecquis remarked before flying off. In his current state, staying around wouldn't end very well for him. Now that he was able to move about again, Ecquis decided to see if the two by the mountains would be willing to aid them. "Well then, its great to see that you're alright Anna. It's been 3 years now since I've seen you, how have you been faring? Also, would you happen to have a spare vulnary or some such?" Ecquis asked, still visibly injured from his previous fights. Moves to W18 and requests concoction from Anna

Having landed a solid hit, Ecquis decided to re-position himself slightly. He didn't feel like he could continue tanking all of the hits for too much longer, so he decided to back up just a bit. Moves to R18 (Canto)

"Nice to see that the others have arrived," Ecquis remarked, wincing a bit at the pain. Speaking of which, the fighter who hit him sounded very familiar. Almost like...wait. Taking another look, Ecquis noticed that the undead fighter before him strongly resembled the jailer from the prison they emptied some time ago. "What exactly is going on here? And more importantly, what exactly are these undead creatures?" he mused. Right now, he didn't have time to get answers for either of his questions. For now, he would just have to fight. He could still go on, but hopefully they could deal with the immediate threats before they had a chance to fight back. "Now then, lets deal with these archers," Ecquis stated before flying straight towards one of them. Moves to R19 and attacks Archer 3

"We certainly wouldn't mind one Terrin," Ecquis responded before preparing his lance and his mount. Moves to P20 and attacks Knight 3 (Forest evasion bonus)

That would be pretty tragic yeah. On the plus side, if you hit, we can go towards the other Knight.(With luka boost of course)
