The same instant he turned towards her, the flame around her flared up, consuming her.
Aaand she’s gone again. Which flame did she go to now?
They turned to look for her, simultaneously trying to back away from the flames that spread with each of Burnscar’s attacks, and they missed seeing the crouching form in their midst.
Well, shit.
Only Elle, from her higher vantage point, was able to see Burnscar.
Would’ve been very helpful to have some sort of walkie-talkies or similar.
To say that Faultline and her crew were friends wasn’t meaningful enough. Elle saw them as family.
Aw, that’s nice. 🙂
And she was helpless to do anything to save them.
That, not so much.
I’m not sure whether or not Elle is Labyrinth. She seems a bit more clear-headed than I would’ve expected, and Labyrinth does have powers that could be used to help out here.
But I do seem to recall Elle’s name being mentioned before, possibly in a context that heavily implied she was Labyrinth. I guess I should go and do a blog search.
…
Okay, so Elle is Labyrinth, but her lucidity fluctuates and her power is inversely proportional to her lucidity. Right now she’s the most lucid we’ve ever seen her, and thus weak powerwise, and that’s why she can’t help.
Things make sense now.
