Ankyra Sound VIII. Standing in the back door crying, now you're going to need a friend.

Skipping Abaddon & PPing him leaving, with permission <3 At this point, if you guys want to PP moving her somewhere or dragging her somewhere I'm good with that.

While the pale wraith made his leave, Raleska's eyes flickered behind her eyelids; her mind was falling back, back through a black chasm (of what? the pool? the grotto? some endless subterranean crypt?) -- she could only feel a sense of fluttering doom as she fell deeper, until at last at the bottom of this dark pool was the Grotto's mouth which yawned wide to receive her and then clapped shut.

She was out cold.

It was a good thing, too -- for the pain that encircled her haunches would have been unbearable otherwise. While Surya and Kaertok did whatever they could under Stryx's command, Raleska's body stopped its convulsing -- eerily still, yet somehow still breathing.
