Xi stood quietly in the shadow of the room as the roegadyn guard entered the chambers and a confused look formed on his face at the cell door pushing open without being unlocked. A smile grew on the lalafell's face when he took in the man. Tall, a sickly shade of green and knuckles that were practically raw. This was the roe that took pride in pummeling his face in.
"What's goin' on in 'ere!?" He immediately went on guard pulling a blade from his waist, but only a little too slow.
He moved his hands swiftly in a series of positions and when the last gesture was made a strong gust of icy wind exited his lungs turning the guard into a giant frozen statue. Xi took a few steps forward from his hiding spot and watched as the roegadyn's eyes barely followed his movement. Taking the sword from his frozen hand, causing the ice to weaken and crack, he grinned and the split on his lip stung and tore open forming a new trail of blood that he let his tongue clean up.
"I promised myself I would kill you first."
Stabbing through the ice a long crack formed that sent the ice breaking to pieces and the man falling to the ground without so much as a final breath. Xi climbed over the mountain of a now fresh corpse and began going through his person. His daggers, smoke bombs, and some of Illandria's grenades but their knives and gun were nowhere to be found. Still it was more than he could have hoped for as he began handing her things.
Tucking his items back into his clothing, he stood up and walked over to the cell door and held it open for her with an informal bow. "Shall we?"
