[Ruler wakes up with a scream.

It had all been so sudden. Just one minute they had been moving forward, and the next thing she knew, she was being charged by a beast of flame. And stupid her, she just stood there in shock, could only scream and swing her sword uselessly as the monster pinned her. She hadn't tried to push it off her, she hadn't tried to roll out from under its paws... she hadn't been able to do anything but scream and panic as her flesh charred and bubbled, as the very air around her burned and robbed her of oxygen...

She lets out a growl of frustration as she hunches over in her bed, running a palm over her pale face. It had been so easy to keep herself from panicking the first time. She had held her head high and refused to give in to her fear as the flames spread beneath her feet, as they slowly climbed higher and higher, inch by agonizing inch... she had been afraid then, but she had kept herself together. So why did this ridiculous fear have to cripple her in this life?

Ruler shook her head. No... no. She wasn't going to dwell on this now. There were more important things she needed to worry about. Turning to swing her legs over the side of her bed, she froze before she could stand. She noticed, somewhat belatedly, that she was not alone. And these two most certainly weren't her roommates.]


Ah...
