That wasn't - [Aaaand there's people trying to circle them now when he's trying to explain himself. Crap. Okay Dougai, time to knock some heads together.
Though in his case, that really more means he's kicking away those that get too close, quickly unsheathing and resheathing his weapon as a series of what originally looked to be decorations on the sheath turns out to be a set of throwing stars are now set into position. He's wincing as he flicks the sheath to launch them, but as he's painfully reminded of while he's trying to get them both out of harm's way, he doesn't have much choice.
He tugs Maya's arm as a signal, hoping to get her at least out of the path of the worst of the NPCs' assault - were there claws somewhere in those strikes?
...
Okay maybe he could feel a little less horrible about this now. Really it shouldn't be that surprising considering what CERES usually likes to pull with these sort of things, but at the same time, old habits (and literally generations' of a honor code ingrained in your head ever since you could remember) died hard.]
