Jing Yuan sometimes has the thought that he's not as young as he used to be. That thought does not usually come when he's circled by wolves after a sudden and unsettling arrival in the depths of a strange vessel, which is probably fortunate. Having experienced his current situation more than once in his life would be at least two times too many.
The wolves have tried both frontal and rear assaults and he's handled them both swiftly, but his own attempts to break the circle aren't doing much better. He's made some forward progress toward the door, but the numbers of the wolves seem endless - their bodies may fall but he suspects that their nature gives their spirits the ability to reform their bodies from the supply of vines and foliage in the room. Worse, the Lightning Lord is not responding to his summoning.
He's beginning to be somewhat concerned that he's in a bad situation. He can feel exhaustion tugging at him and a dull ache in his abdomen as he's reminded of his relatively recent injury at Phantylia's hands. Another wolf leaps and falls as his hands move on automatic, but - is he moving slower? How much longer can he hold out?
