D11LN, Late Watch (Open)
Assuming he is still alive at this point and that paradoxes do not thus ensue, requiring the ultimate naughtymancy of retconjuration or a different doctor to prescribe some wibbly-wobbly stuff, Dawei stands a watch. He does an adequate job of finding a concealed post (Stealth 24), but it appears to be one that looks across the dwindling campfire, skewing his night-vision (Investigation 15).
Perhaps another will also take up the vigil.

The sounds of stone scraping over stone and faint, inhuman sounding grunts begins to drift across the fire towards Dawei's position.

Dawei slowly draws his sword, trusting that he remains concealed as he positions himself to attack, knowing that he will need to yell loudly when he does to alert others.
And he waits for...whatever it is to come into view, waiting to see if it identifies itself as a friend to be tested or shows itself a foe to be attacked.

There's a sound of tortured stone against stone, and bits of rock shrapnel explode out of the shadows nearby.

Re: D11LN, Late Watch (Open)
Dawei deftly avoids the shrapnel (Athletics 22), and frantically scans for the source.
(Do I need another roll, here, or could I make out the form?
Need to know, too, if I can see it, am I attacking it at unawares, gaining my Technique bonuses, or no?
Because I'm attacking it if I can see it, now, and, presuming it's Initiative time, my roll is a whopping 13.)

The sound brought the ever wary Hanzou to investigate.

Re: D11LN, Late Watch (Open)
Moments after the shrapnel clears, a hulking figure looms up out of the darkness, one arm cocked back as it drags a heavy tetsubo behind it, creating the scraping sounds of stone against stone. The light of the fire flickers against the figure, gradually reavealing its form...
Kanna, half armored and grunting more like a beast than any human, steps out into the light, her eyes wide and sweeping the darkness madly, pupils dilated near to distortion.

What madness is this? Dawei thinks as Kanna staggers in. If it is Kanna.
He remains in place, watchful, especially with another already in the open.

Hanzou looked at the woman in confusion. He had never spoken with her, but had seen her before.
"Are you alright?" he called out to her.

Kanna's eyes whipped towards Hanzou, and her pupils shrank to pinpricks. The tetsubo was lifted to point squarely at Hanzou's chest threateningly, the heavy stone never once dipping or wavering.

Kanna let out a snarl, gripping the club with both hands and taking up a readied stance.

Her mind's turned, thinks Dawei, but she has to be stopped.
He readies himself to attack her from ambush, thinking he will strive to knock her down so she can be restrained.

"You aren't making any screee sense. I can't cricht understand what you're saying."
He didn't know what was going on. He wasn't going to fight her, but he wasn't going to let her hit him either. He quickly slashed his palm and whispered to the spirits as his blood dripped to the ground.

Re: D11LN, Late Watch (Open)
Kanna snarled angrily, her body bending slightly towards the earth at it was weighed down by the will of the kami. Her feet dragged as she began making her way towards Hanzou, heedless of anything else in her surroundings.

(Keen, no. Regarding it as needed, yes.)
Seeing Kanna advance, Dawei leaps from his hiding place, rushing up from behind her to try to take her off of her feet. The flat of his sword strikes against the backs of her knees as he does so, the dull thwack cracking in the darkness, and he shoves into her to try to topple her.
(Attack roll 50, succeeding at forcing Knockdown attempt

Re: D11LN, Late Watch (Open)
Between the weight of the earth kami and Dawei, Kanna topples forward onto the ground. She tries to swing the club, but can't get any leverage from her position, and only ends up scrabbling in the dirt, eyes wild and mouth practically foaming. The string of curses she utters come out in the same backwards sounding pattern as everything else she's said up to this point, creating a disturbing mishmash of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

He was surprised by Dawei's strike, but Hanzou moved quickly, trying to tie the woman up with his rope.

"Ware the camp!" Dawei bellows, hoping others will come to aid them as he, in some kind of strange, ironic reversal, sits as firmly on Kanna as he can.
