She wasn't aware of them at first... or second, even, and vaguely aware of them at third. By the time she noticed them, it was too late, and they were rolling and biting and knocking her about.
"OW! HEY!"
You couldn't help crying out in pain. Even in the Labyrinth, when she'd wanted to die, she'd done it. The difference was that, for some reason, she didn't want to die anymore.
In a sense, she had already died. The part of her she was used to had died, the part of her with an almost cocky sense of surety about her existence. Her whole problem now was that she felt like she was someone so new that even she didn't know herself, and how was she supposed to deal with that?!
But she was never going to get an answer if she didn't live.
And, gods dammit, she wanted an answer.
"STOP IT!" she yelled and flung her hand out at the nearest vampire gourd in front of her. The gods-cursed magic responded, as it had the last time her life was in danger, and shot out a blast of air as hard as she could manage... which... wasn't very hard, honestly, but maybe it'd buy her some time.
