Another pair of Death Jackals rushed over to the new target, hoping to take advantage of the person's drop to close the distance before they could do anything, leaving us with fewer guards than before, though that meant little to us as we began to work instead on keeping the crowd safe.
I wanted to rush out there and find one or two of these assassins for myself so that I could ensure they understood just how displeased I was at this attempt on my lover's lives, but at the same time I didn't really want the people to be caught in this for no reason... or really, I wanted to protect the children who were cowering with their parents or siblings right now; that was who I actually cared about.
