It's hard to act in front of your friend
"You stole Brother Valmeier's body?!"
"Ian--"
The young paladin raised his voice as well as his shield. He would raise his spear too, if it wasn't for Ignis binding him in a whip of fire and Jade angrily chirping at him while blasting harmless water balls--because I told the little bird we shouldn't hurt them.
"Ugh--what..."
Illian staggered back from the water balls, and the shield fell from his hand as the flame from Ignis smacked his arm. At the same time, the humans stood up; Fatia and the Hero approached the young paladin--fortunately, not to support his agression.
"Ian, you shouldn't do that--let your spear go!"
"Valmeier, can you release him?" the Hero asked me while standing in front of the younger guy. "I promise he won't try to attack you again."
"He's not Brother Valmeier--ugh!"
Another hard splash landed on his face, followed by a series of splashes that ended up spraying the Hero and the Elementalist too.
