[OOM: Gabriel Tam gives a speech to a cheerful crowd, and to a few surprise guests.

And things really, really don't go as planned.]


The door slams open, and Regan Tam runs through. For once, she's neither composed nor immaculate, though she was a short while ago; her hair is straggling, her face white and eyes wild. She grabs the door, holding it open.

The reason becomes clear an instant later, from the cavalcade that follows: Galadan, bearing an unconscious and blood-drenched Gabriel Tam in his arms. Gabriel's face and chest are laid open, deep awful wounds seared black at the edges. Beside him hurries Simon Tam, taut and intent; taking up the rear comes River, her skirt soaked with red and her hands streaked with it. She scans the room with a bodyguard's sharp paranoia, as the group hurries towards the infirmary.

[OOC: They're going to be heading straight for the infirmary and not likely to change course, but this is not at all plot-locked! Feel free to notice, to try to interact if you don't mind your character getting a very distracted response, or to have your character stop by to help or stare.

Also, warnings for a fair bit of gore in the above OOM.]

Galadan knows well the feel of magic not his own being worked upon him.

This, at least, is not harmful.

But he casts a sharp look at Mia regardless.

He will seek her out later.

There is often no telling who is friend and who is foe.

Cast as many sharp looks as you like, Mia doesn't care.

She's been in enough battles to know that injury doesn't wait for permission. And if she was in the least bit helpful, it'll be worth anything that may come later.
