My mistake here, jumped the gun with Xantaeus' action. Fallacia had done a move action to pick up the item which triggered an AoO, she'll proceed with her standard action. (Long span of inactivity made me forget what was happening lol)

Once she had successfully prevented from being tripped, Fallacia had grabbed the sword, and started to move towards the winged man just 5-feet away from her.

"Xantaeus! We're escaping. We have the sword." A moment after that, she traced some runes in the air as Xantaeus rushed to her as well. A purple glow came from her fingertips, and shortly after that the two vanished. The primary light source, which had been the Sword of Galas'nor had vanished with the two invaders as well. It dark, save for the last remaining traces of energy still coursing through the crystals that made up the caverns. Yet, even that began to dwindle fast, as the light slowly began to fade and become more and more dimmer. Soon enough you knew it would become dark.

Seeing the weapon fall down, the girl started to pick up the weapon, leaving an opening for Kin to take.

Seeing that you made no move towards her. The person finally responded back as she took that step closer to the artifact at the center.

"From what I was told... After the guild of Teras'nor separated from Galas'nor hundreds of years ago, the guild master of Galas'nor placed an enchantment on the sword. 'Only a member of the guild could wield the sword, and shun those who do not bear the mark'." She repeated. As she did so, she begun playing with the ribbon in her hair, displaying the guild emblem finely embroidered in the piece of cloth.

She placed a hand on the weapon's hilt, drawing it easily from the encased crystal. At that moment the light emanating from the crystals started to dim. The source of their power being pulled out causing the diminishing light.

"It looks like I have that mark."

With the Sword of Galas'nor in hand, she begun casting a spell, directed towards Kin, tendrils of black energy appeared, and shortly after a ray of darkness aimed straight towards Kin shot forth from her fingertips. Kin was prepared, setting himself into a total defensive stance. Yet the girl's aim proved to be true, and Kin watched as the beam was about to hit him.

Since you have counters, feel free to call one out if you plan to use it, if not, let me know too and I'll resolve it.

"You." The person stated simply as she realized that you were able to see her. She didn't respond to your question though, her eyes looked at you with purpose however, but there was no friendly emotion, only a very steeled gaze. Instead she seemed to about to take a step back.

As you activated your stance, Formless Dance, your eyes started picking out something strange. The use of the ability puts the user in an almost dimensional flux, and as you began your stance what would normally be invisible to the naked eye started appearing. A distance away, perhaps around 40 ft. near the Sword of Galas'nor looked to be a woman. She seemed to not pay much attention to the fighting that winged man was about to bring, and instead was more focused on the sword encased in the crystal.

Her features were weaving in and out of your vision as your started your stance, telling you for certain that whoever she was, was under some sort of invisibility. Your companions with you likely would not have been able to perceive her at all. As you looked at her closer however, you noticed that she seemed eerily familiar. She wore a form-fitting black dress, and her hair was silken white. But it was the ribbon in her hair that gave you pause. You knew only one person who kept that knotted ribbon in her hair, and you knew her well. Ever since she was found abandoned and bloodied in Tzane's cavern did she wear that same very ribbon neatly tied in her hair. As the realization began to sink in, you recognized her face.

It was Anastasia.

You tried to search for that mental link you had with the girl, but as you tried to center your thoughts to it, to spark that communication you had with the psion, you found it blocked, as if a giant wall was placed between you and her.
