A Final Fantasy novel, if you will.

Ahem.

Ordinarily Elidibus would be far more polite, but the snakes are closing in from behind and one of their own number seems hell-bent on motivated revenge. Once the ward is completed, Cortana will find herself answered.

"Other than assurance I am capable in combat, I know of nothing I need immediately mention."

Support magic, mental support. It fits a theme at least?

Elidibus turns to face the sound of snakes slithering up from behind. But through a circumspect nature, he addresses the matter of Cortana's intention to take on Steel... by addressing Yelena.

"If you will join Cortana against our foes in the front, I will guard our rear. I suspect the former will be the more difficult challenge." For a number of reasons that don't necessarily have to do with Zyrian Steel.

While he wasn't a close friend to Cortana, what little information he does have, including her current inclination for revenge, suggests it is best she is the one with more support.

The choice is ultimately left to Yelena however and Elidibus steps forward to meet the beasts she had alerted them all to. In the dim red light, the faint, natural blue glow of his eyes seems more pronounced as he risks slipping his sight toward extant signatures of life. Or perhaps in this case the approximation of it? Regardless, the nearest of the snakes trying to sneak through the wires at this point will be met with readied shield and an experienced sweep of the sword's blade. trying to cut through the wiring they hide underneath and their bodies.

Despite his confidence in the wards, he knows well that this may earn him a shock and is braced for it.
