Blood rolls down Khy's injured arm, limp at his side. The other is raised, firmly latched upon the Miqo'te girl's head. His fingers press deeply into her scalp. Even as the pugilist slams the assailant, Khy's grip is held fast. Not once did the man make a sound, any hint of emotion on his face. There's just nothing.
"Don't hurt her, ma'am." He urges to the Roegadyn. "...Let me handle this."
He looks down at the Miqo'te girl's face.
"You're sleepy." He murmurs, his voice dull and dreamlike. "Your mind is going blank."
Should the mind-mage's strange magic work... the Miqo'te will find a strange buzzing in her head, a warmth spreading from one end of her scalp to the other, seeping into her skull. Â She will find her mind, perhaps against her will, clearing itself... as if she were falling asleep.
"Now... where is your will to fight?" A voice would permeate through her thoughts, if the mage was successful in getting this far. He was looking for something. An intruder in her head. "I don't think you need that, now... do you?"
He was looking for a memory. Where did she learn how to fight? Where did she learn the means to wield a blade against strangers? If he could just find that memory, and take it out of her head... then she wouldn't be a threat at all...
Would she?
