[PQ] {Magic Training} Cold Goodbyes

I count your heartbeats before you sleep
I bite my fingernails to bone

Evie stumbles and nearly falls, having to fall down to one knee - which is still uncomfortable even with the cold muted thanks to their blessings - just to keep herself on the ice floe and not in the depths of the dauntingly frigid water. Grateful that Hotaru has turned her sights on Hadama (and that Hadama seems more capable of countering it as he dips under the water) the Evergreen uses the opportunity to reorient herself.

Choosing to remain with one knee down for stability, Evie uses her magic to try and aid Hadama in a team-up this time for a bit of revenge against the Valkyrie. Hoping to distract her from the front, Evie uses her water magic to lift droplets from the sea and her air magic to buffet them toward the blonde to try and give one of their attacks a chance.

Evie uses her water magic to lift droplets out of the ocean and her air magic to buffet them toward Hotaru to try and distract her so Hadama's attack will hit.

And now I crawl back under the stairwell
To a place I call my home

Evie
