Karst nodded back, but paid more attention to the monster at hand than to idle banter. The man was staggering, the girl was without a weapon (but using fire attacks in the meantime, much to the Fire Clan girl's carefully-suppressed delight), and she was already involved in this...

She grinned. Much as her Psynergy powers had weakened from disuse, she'd missed the way it felt to swing a scythe in close combat with a foe just as much. So she charged back toward the monster, intent on distracting it from the apparently weakened man. If she took some friendly fire (literally) in the process... it didn't matter much.
