run away from the hum-drum [VOLCANO]

Lucretia arrived, heavily winded. She had heard and scene the eruption much closer to its source, deep within the gully. From there, she had more felt the eruption than seen it. The walls of the gully had quaked and threatened to cave in on her and her loyal companion. She cast a worried look over her shoulder for Bourbon. He had been close behind the entire run here - in fact, she'd gotten the distinct impression that he may have been able to overtake her easily.

Anxiety radiated off of her in waves. "Belle," she gasped, stumbling to a halt next to her sister. She smelled strongly of sulfur and ash. "Are you okay? Are you hurt? Where is Archon?" Where was her husband? Was he hurt? The strength of the pack depended on pillars that could support them all: the Daimyo, Belle, Archon... with one of those supports missing in a crisis, Luce was immediately worried.
