I'd Rather Not

Rolando had two more applications of sedative he could give Devis, but he had no idea what the breaking point was regarding too much, or too little. So he was hesitant to just inject him again while the drama with the cultists played out in front of him. It was almost enough to make him laugh, here he was worrying about Devis's health when his own was in doubt. The cultists had blocked off the room, but had not advanced. Kyriac had pushed over some of the furniture to create make shift barriers, though they wouldn't hold anyone for long.

"Why aren't they rushing us?" It seemed like a good question, Rolando didn't know, he was worried about structural integrity. The building was literally just a ranch, if they wanted to they could easily blow out a wall and assault their back.

"Must be waiting to see if we are going to come out."

"We were setting up the poison gentleman, its what took so long." Sand seemed confident to Rolando, and he should have been considering he did in fact have a lot of poison available to him.

"You gas us you kill your leader."

"We're a death cult Mr. Lorentino, he'd rather die free than live with as a prisoner." Kyriac looked back at Trezlan and shrugged.

"Well then Sand prepare to join your boss." He didn't have much of a bead on where the cultists were, but the walls shittyness could work in his favor. He and Kyraic opened up on the sides of the door, their weapon fire split open the entry way and through a quirk of luck happened to detonate the poison canisters in the hallway with the cultists., though it did mean the poison was now unleashed. Rolando acted fast, and grabbed Kyriac's hand leaving behind Devis. He shifted, thinking of the ridge way they'd been watching in the first place.

"So basically we shouldn't have tried at all." Kyriac was the first to point out the obvious.

"Right, lesson learned, orbital bombardment of cult camps." In the distance the compound was slowly being engulfed in a poison cloud. Both men didn't even have to say what they were thinking.
