"Well shit!" Koorittou said out loud, looking back and forth between Matt and Szanod, letting himself relax and his ora fade. "I'm confused as all Hell right now..."
"Matt, I think right now we should take Szanod's advice and battle him no longer. Serendice needs to be saved, the evil has overwhelmed." Koorittou said turning towards Matt.
"But Szanod, this is not your place to step in. Let Matt go first if he believes he can take care of her, protect her, from the evil within himself." Koorittou said looking on at Szanod with almost a pleading look on his face.
"I have proven myself unworthy, not as a fighter, but as a protector. So I will no step in until asked, or until I am needed. I am not ready yet, and I must still choose my path."
Tears again began to fall down Koorittou's face, freezing halfway down his cheeks. He looked at the wintery landscape around him, and was filled with feelings of guilt and slight despair.
'I must fix this...'
