The deepest of cover

The eyes of a warforged are not similar to those of most humanoids, Thanny’s eyes are two blinking lights in the shadows of a helmet visor, but when he looks at them, they seem glossed over in a way elana did not think it was possible for them to be. Dim.He isn't seeing them, he isn’t hearing them, he doesn’t know what’s going on, and he is terrified.“Thanatos” she calls. He is holding something muddy with shaking hands, a tree branch, maybe? swinging it in Peter’s direction when her husband tries to get closer. “Stop” she tries to put power in her voice, to use the commanding presence she didn't need to think about for years now, but gets no reaction.(or, all things end eventually. magic fades, metal rusts, stone crumbles, even if it takes years.)(or, around 6k words of everyone having a really bad time.)
