Croix's moment of satisfaction at seeing his arrow hit the target was short lived as the bar erupted into flames. This was precisely what he had been afraid of. Squinting as the smoke stung his eyes, he tried to seek out a fresh target when his aim was interrupted by first a wet handkerchief being thrust into his hand, then his cuff being tugged on as he was pulled away from the bar. He nodded to himself, the woman had the right idea...to stay in amongst these flames would be certain death and little could be done now that things had progressed this far. They made their way out, bumping into several others that Croix was unable to see through the smoke until they finally emerged into the safety of the street outside. As his cuff was released, he wiped his eyes and took stock of his surroundings.
Mages attempting to quell the blaze...guards starting the investigations as to who started it. Not a good thing to be caught up in, Croix decided...he and his temporary allies were innocent, but far too often he had encountered guards that employed a "punch in the face and arrest first, decide how they're guilty later" mentality and all his instincts told him that now was a good time to slip away. Nevertheless, he had just fought alongside the ranger and the other woman had assisted him in escaping the blaze and he felt uneasy at the thought of just abandoning them. He addressed his companion, looking around for sight of the other ranger. "I suppose I'd best be done quickly with the introductions. My name is Croix Reinard, I know this city well. It would be in our best interests not to get caught up in this...one tends to survive by staying off the map, as it were. If you wish, I can lead you someplace safe for the time being...once your friend emerges, of course."
