Nemesis HQ
Fate enters a state of clairvoyant focus. The whistling sound of the bolt triggers something, and everything seems to slow down. Without looking, he already knows. It's aimed at Sidia.
His heart leaps with panic, and he leaps to save Sidia, doing the only thing he knows to do in such a situation. Synapses go off and he desperately searches for a way to stop the bolt using magic. His panic prevents logic from gaining the better hand.
A moment later, he lies in a dust cloud in front of Sidia, completely still. Behind him, a grunt of pain emits from Sidia as she slumps to the side, a crossbow bolt protruding from her abdomen.
Fate still lays, completely still.
